Bliss - By Sandra Adler
Greetings from La Quinta, CA!
The month of bliss was great! I set the energy not to get involved with
emotionalism over the holidays and it worked!! I enjoyed my best holiday
month ever.
Bliss is loyalty to self; it’s doing what I feel with whom I want to do
it as I live in the present moment – honesty with myself. It’s called
the present because it is a gift to me given without expecting or
experiencing guilt. The key to living in the present was not regretting
the past or worrying about the future. I was focused on pleasing me and
breaking my bad habit of pleasing others first. I spent time on
forgiveness – mostly forgiving myself. What freedom!!
It was a challenge for me to feel blissful all the time. I had to
continually check with guidance if what I was feeling was me or was not
me. When it was not me I checked if I were picking it up from someone
with a physical body or without a physical body.
Some of the things I experienced last month that were not me were
impatience, rushing, obligation, pleasing, regret, fear, proving,
competition, defensiveness, pressure, catering, revenge and suspicion. I
was picking up feelings of people in my environment and people who were
thinking about me. I am so thankful that I can check with guidance to
get the facts so I could go back to those blissful feelings!
One of the most important keys for me was being consistent with my
routines. When I would complete my daily routines I felt a great deal of
satisfaction. Then when the weekly and monthly routines were done I felt
a deep stillness inside. But when I did those yearly routines – at the
end of the year - my life was blissful.
In addition to being consistent with my routines I would do one or two
or more projects each day. I was moving forward accomplishing my goals
which was my responsibility of being loyal to me. I received a lot of
insights to help me.
Bliss came when I acknowledged how I felt, had the facts of where the
not-so-good feelings were coming from and persisted consistently to
change habits that were not working for me. I am not my mother and I am
not my father. My apprentices want me and I attracted a lot of profiles
last month.
Bliss is getting my first puppy! Angel is a Jack Russell Terrier mix
with lots of energy!! He is 10 weeks old and weighs 7 pounds. He is
white with a circle around his right eye (where his halo dropped.) I
love him and he helped me learn more patience and to stay in the present
moment all month!
