Today, I’m focusing my gratitude on flowers in all their glory. For me, taking pictures of flowers reminds me to stop and pay attention. They provide us with such beautiful gifts. I love walking around my neighborhood and seeing all the variations. When the wind hits the right place, I smell the gardenia and the jasmine permeate the air. If you want to join me, take a few minutes to really stop, appreciate, and smell the flowers you love. What are your favorites? Do you have any around you? Go visit them if you can. If you don’t, find pictures and imagine smelling them. When the mind focuses, it can bring a smell from a memory right to us. Use the flowers to REALLY embrace the feeling of gratitude, because in this moment the flowers are enough to bring us into the energy of abundance. 

When we slow down and pay attention to the flowers, we give ourselves the opportunity to be fully engaged in the moment. We don’t even need to see flowers in person to feel the AWE. We can look at pictures online and notice details of these AMAZING creations.

Today’s Aligning

Love

Right now, I’m focusing my energy on what I love about a specific flower. I’m paying attention to what it feels like in my body to experience this love. I pay attention to how my energy shifts from allowing myself time to experience this. This is what the experience looks like to me?

Abundance

Three flowers I’m grateful for are…

Peace

I commit to going out and smelling the flowers today, and focusing my energy on everything that makes experiencing the flower special.

 With Love and Gratitude,
