Living Consciously
When I am working with a client who feels that something is just "missing" from his or her life, I often ask about how connected they are to the world outside of work and family. Our lives can be so hectic and seemingly full with busyness that we often don't realize how disconnected we truly have become from the outside world and the universe as a whole. We are connecting all the time but it's often on a virtual or superficial level instead of a deeper or more spiritual level. As social and spiritual creatures, human beings crave a connection to something larger than themselves. When we choose to live consciously and share our unique gifts and talents with the world in a meaningful way, the "missing" piece often finds its place in the puzzle of life. So... that expensive sports car you've been eyeing may not be the answer if reading with youngsters is what your soul has been craving all along. Of course, if you show up in the sports car, the kids will think you're really cool, but we know it's the reading rather than the ride that makes you great.
