Daily Inspirations:

Let your Higher Self be in charge.

Today, and as much as possible going forward, can you let your small self step aside and let your Higher Self be in charge of your life?

Does this scare you? (This would be the smaller self who would be scared.) Are you afraid to let go? Afraid of what you would have to release in order to let your Higher Self be in charge? There is no need to be afraid. The Higher Self simply doesn’t get caught up in petty dramas. It doesn’t replay old hurts over and over and over again. It forgives easily. And, it’s joyous all the time!

Even if you are afraid to let go, can you try it for just one day and see how it feels? Try it on like a coat. If you don’t like it, take it off.

If you need help with a visual for this, just imagine that through the top of your head is a channel of energy, and your Higher Self (or your soul, or the Divine, or even Source Energy) is coming down through and see your small self just stepping off to the side. Your small self is still around (this is your thinking mind- your humanness), but it is not the one running the show.

If you practice this, I can pretty much guarantee it will feel good. Whenever you have a decision today, think about letting your Higher Self be in charge, and let that guide you. If you catch your thoughts running in circles like a hamster on a wheel, check in with your Higher Self to see if this is what it wants. Don’t judge anything as good or bad- just allow yourself to shift from the human, thinking mind to the larger, loving self.

Practice not even thinking at all when you don’t have to. Just clear your mind, and feel the power and love of your soul. Remember that there is so much more to you than your 5 senses. We have a larger, more powerful and loving self that we have forgotten about. Let this self run the show, and your life will take off!

More joyous fun to inspire you:

Try these actions to stay relaxed and centered today:

• Take a few cleansing, calming deep breaths
• Focus on something you like that is right in front of you (butterfly, flowers, candle, a nice car, whatever!)
• Take time to gently stretch your body, go for a walk, or really work up a sweat!
• Pray
• Spend a minute or two enjoying nature or playing with a pet
• Read an inspiring book or visit this website or other inspirational site!
• Get still and feel your connection to your Higher Source. Feel the energy of that connection course through your body. It's a nice feeling. The more you do it, the stronger it gets!
