Stand Tall




You are not what goes on around you. Yes, you are connected, but your innermost being, your soul, is entirely your own. When you tune into that deepest part of you, you bring peace to yourself and to others.

No matter what happens in the world, you are still you. No matter how strong the winds blow, you are still connected to your higher self, your soul self. Self now, with a bright ball shining above you and a golden shaft pouring down from that ball into your head and down your spine, down your legs and through your feet and into the earth. See how tall you stand. See how the golden energy warms and fills you. See how brightly you glow.

And now, see that around you there is a great storm. A powerful wind blows through, causing the trees to sway. But still you stand tall, the golden shaft of energy running all the way through you, anchoring you in strength and courage. See how you are warm and glowing, even though the storm rages around you.

Wind and rain, lighting and thunder, but still you stand tall, because your source of energy is not from outside you. It cannot be touched.

And now see that the storm has ended, as they always do. The sky is blue, the breeze is gentle and the trees are still, full of birds singing out to greet the dawn. And still you stand, connected and centered, grounded and glowing.
