❁ This Month’s Energy Expression Reading
This month, a divine portal opens for you to expand your capacity to embody a deeper sense of presence in your everyday life.
Presence meets you in many forms — underneath your backyards giant tree, while the afternoon sun gleans through the leaves. Or while you’re engaging in serendipitous conversation with a stranger on an airplane. Or even when you are washing your dishes by hand, aware of how the soap tickles your fingertips and how each hand stroke matches in synchronistic rhythm with the inhalation of your breath.
Whenever and however presence arises for you this month, simply notice the fortuitous alchemy at play here.
Within the art of presence - your mind chatter softens into stillness, your body opens into trust, and a deeper connection to Self and the Great Web of Life has now been bestowed upon you.
If you are looking to cultivate more presence, here are some simple activities you can try adopting (there are so much more!)
Mindfulness meditation
Walks in nature
Journaling / morning pages
Compassionate listening
Creative arts / self-expression
Cooking a nourishing meal
Gardening
*What’s an activity that you love to engage in that brings you into more presence? Playing my sound healing instruments are one for me!
❁ Where are you being called into deeper presence?
For me, presence is occurring in my everyday interactions with those I share intimate space with.
Last weekend, I was honored to witness a clients healing process, one where he was able to work moving through fear, while accessing full states of presence without story or over-analyzing. This is a huge win for him, as we had been working on this together for quite some time!
Also, I am gleeing with excitement in the PDX airport, where I’m traveling to North Carolina to visit my best friend from middle school, who I haven’t seen since we hiked Mt. Everest Base Camp together five years ago!
My intention is to be fully present with her as we spend a weekend sharing love, tears, music and a ton of playtime with our Beloveds 💃✨
Where are you being called into a deeper state of presence in your everyday life? I’d love to know in the comments below…
See you next week for your oracle draw, playlist, and other resources on presence.
With love,
Christine Marie
