An Intuitive Study

I watched the shadows of heat waves
Dance across my wall today.

The waves so fine and fluid
They almost didn't exist.

Like thoughts in my imagination
The waves circled and moved.

Effortlessly with no direction
And indescribable beauty.







Feeling Good

Do you ever notice how wonderful life is when you're feeling good? When you're in a good mood all the world seems to come to life, you notice how everything around you is teeming with a joyous energy. This is the beautiful part of life. However there is a dichotomy. The darkside. It is the balance that gives you perspective for enjoying life. Don't despair, it's all under your control with the use of your thoughts. When you're feeling bad, notice what kind of thoughts you are having. When you are feeling good, notice what kind of thoughts you are having. Either way, you experience what you are thinking about. So if you want to enjoy more good things in life then think about those good things more often, and in time it will come around to you and make you feel good again. Even just changing your thoughts in the moment will help you to feel better and at the very least it will help you to stop feeling bad.

Let's say you're experiencing a bad situation and you can't seem to change your thoughts, the next best thing you can do is to give all of your attention to your breathing. Breathing is necessary to life and is a neutral zone that will help you to reset yourself. So give yourself a moment and take three big deep breaths, then pay attention to your breathing.

Also, when trying to improve your reality, the best way to know if you are doing the best thing for yourself is to notice how you feel in your center. Notice your feelings when you change your thoughts, and change your thoughts according to the feelings you most like to enjoy.

My First Blog

So this how it's going to be, huh? Me, essentially talking to myself in hopes that someone out there will find it interesting enough to keep reading. Well, here goes nothing. I suppose I'll introduce myself to all you viewers out there in web land. My name is Angela Brace, as you most intelligently noticed. How the heck did you even get here? And how do I find others like you? Other blogs, I mean. Here I am, brand new to using this type of system and most of these things are fairly intuitive. However, I wanted to look at other blogs to get an idea of how people set themselves up. Yes, it's true, I'm not much of a blog follower of any kind, so I don't really know what I'm getting into here.  None-the-less, how am I supposed to connect with fellow bloggers if there isn't some sort of directory directly in my face? Perhaps a soon as I post this first rant I will be shown such a thing. Even still, it would have been nice to have such a directory available from my home page.

Now that I've got that off my chest. Let's get down to brass tacks.(I've always wanted to say that. Even though I didn't really, I just typed it.) (I feel like I'm in the fourth dimension, communicating my stream of consciousness directly into the void of space, which is now poised as the WWW.) Like I was saying, I am here to offer articles that will be thought provoking and informative about conscious living.

The subject of conscious living spans great and wide and I hope to cover many topics and offer my perspective and to do my best to provide useful information to help you improve your life.

Salud!
