How To Have Faith

Through all the conflict we have faced over the past five years, I have learned to look up, not out, for guidance.

With the political turmoil in the US, I invite you to look up and listen for your spiritual guidance versus turning to the collective. 

When there is conflict, fear of the future and the unknown often comes up. 

It’s natural. 

And it’s natural to look to others and the media for information and answers. 

But that often leaves us feeling activated and afraid.

You can stay informed by reading the news from a more unbiased source like The Associated Press versus opinionated news channels. 

What I know for sure is that upset creates access to new possibilities. 

We don’t have the impetus to change unless there is a reason or something upsetting we are trying to resolve. 

And while it is unclear what new possibilities may open up, I invite you to have faith in the chance for positive change. 

This is easier to do when you connect to a power greater than yourself. 

Twelve Step Programs have been one of the most successful vehicles for healing from addictive behavioral patterns. 

The second step in The Twelve Step Program is to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

This has helped me this week.

And, throughout history, connecting to the power of Divine Love has helped many people through unbelievable hardship. 

What gives some people the ability to persevere where others fail? 

Faith.

Below is a meditation I recorded years ago at a spiritual center where I first felt the healing power of Spirit and found faith. 

I have been doing this meditation on my own and with my clients this week. 

I hope this brings you comfort. 

Much love,
