It’s my job to nurture my body and being.  It’s very beneficial and brings wonderful results.
I notice that many spiritual students appear to have a false belief that deprivation is somehow more spiritual.  That’s how I used to be – lots of denial and deprivation.  I didn’t feel worthy, of a lot of what I wished for.
I’m pretty sure that Buddha’s whole life taught us that the middle way is the faster path to awakening.  Not drowning in the pleasures, not denying them, learning to be mindful and choose from our Spirit not the ego.  This is a journey I see us all on.
In my family, my grandparents were young in the depression.  Then they went through WWII and lack and limitation became a way of life in many ways.  In my family we really have never felt comfortable with extravagance.  It seems somehow shameful or wrong.  I know this is a false belief.
In my family, we’re hard workers.  We enjoy working and we enjoy playing too.  What I don’t see a lot of is self-nurturing.  Yet, that’s something I’ve learned is essential to my awakening to my divinity.

The more I walk this path of awakening, the more clear I am that we don’t have to crucify ourselves, and we don’t have to live deprived of Joy and pleasure.  

While some spiritual students have a deep aversion to pleasure, due to a fear of be coming addicted to or dependent upon the pleasure, that doesn’t mean that pleasure is bad.  Let’s just not make it a false idol.  Let’s not pursue pleasure for the sake of pleasure because that really is a huge distraction and detour.

The greatest Joy comes from knowing ourselves as God.  Since we are the Presence of God in our own life, let’s nurture and cherish ourselves into our remembrance of that fact.

We can learn to practice extreme Self-care without indulging the ego.
Now is the time to leave the aversions behind and to step into the present moment victorious and free!  Self-nurturing is caring for the Christ within.  That’s something we can all celebrate!

LATEST PODCAST EPISODE!The most recent episode of my podcast’s topic is Crucify Much?  When we try to motivate ourselves and others with guilt, shame and blame, we’re intensifying our own experience of feeling badly about ourselves. In this episode, I share how to clearly turn away from doubling down into ego identification in order have a happier and healthier life.  We’re learning to forgive and practice compassion and eliminate blame, shame and guilt.
