Increasing your energy and awareness starts with opening up some space in your life. The space is needed to integrate the voice of your head with your heart’s wisdom, your La Canción de la Corazón, Spanish for the heart’s song.”
What You Can Do: Here are some suggestions on ways to begin, just choose one of these or design your own. Commit to doing it for 30 minutes or more each day for 21 days:
- Begin a practice of gratitude: Write down 3 things you are grateful for each day and take time to reflect on each one.
- Simply sit still, breathe deeply and meditate for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Take a walk alone in silence, being fully present and aware of everything (Think lunch break).
- Write or draw in a journal each day. (I set a timer and give myself a 3 page minimum/maximum – some days I write big, some days I write small- cramming everything in).
- Do something like I did below:
My 21 day quest started on July 1, 2009. To open up more space so that I could hear my personal La Canción de la Corazón, I went by myself to Santa Fe, New Mexico and rented a tiny one room casita. I am using physical movement, quiet meditation and creative expression (writing, photography or art) on a daily basis. I am continuing to work about 3 to 4 hours a day. It is important to just start where you are with the resources and opportunities that you have.
