Slow Down and Listen
by Rusty Stewart, Ph.D.
You may be surprised how effective slowing down can be! It allows us to become more receptive to messages. More in tune with synergy, synchronicity, and the universal divine energy. Divine wisdom is always showing up in our lives. The question is, are we too busy to see, feel, and hear? My experience has been when I slow down I notice I am being guided and supported with messages. As a result, I am not trying to do it all myself. The choices I make are more in alignment with the direction and path I want to be on. The results are not always what I want, but it seems to work out for my highest good. And, most of the time I am pleasantly surprised.
Slowing down also allows us to focus more and not be as scattered. I notice I make lees mistakes and handle things more efficiently when I am more present. Part of this is because when I slow down I take more still time for myself, which centers me. I then perceive things differently throughout the day. Time seems to work in my favor. And I'm less reactive and more proactive.
Now, slowing down does not mean stop. Sometimes we do need to stop when we have been running, running, running, and doing, doing, doing. The message is clear when we have to stop. Sometimes we get sick, exhausted, etc. But if we slow down there is no need to stop, except to smell the roses. When we slow down we are more in harmony with the energy of the universe. This has a balancing effect on our mind, body, and spirit.
So as we enter the slower and longer days of summer, listen to the wisdom the season brings. Slow down and take still time for yourself. See, hear, and feel the magical messages being sent to you. Enjoy yourself and don't try so hard. You have plenty of divine universal energy on you team. Cooperate with the energy and don't block it or be blind or deaf to it. You would only be cheating yourself. All you have to do is slow down and listen! You may be amazed at the results!
