Opportunity is always knocking, but do you hear it? Do you see it? Do you perceive that that is what it is? Why are you so sure it’s there for someone else and not you? Turn yourself around a few times and then stop and see what you see? Has something changed in that little bit of dizzying turning? Are you better able to see what is right in front of you that you have been misperceiving all this time? Don’t take life for granted anymore. Shake things up in your life by doing something as simple as turning in a different direction and walking off into what that new horizon offers. You may find that you’ve just been going in the wrong direction, looking in the wrong place, and misunderstanding things. When it’s time for change, make it really count by trying something completely new.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

When it seems as if all avenues of change have been tried and failed there is still always something else to rely on, and that is chance. Let chance be your new guide if you have tried everything and nothing has worked to aid you in your search for change, for new life, for transformative experiences. Let chance open you to new possibilities. Rather than plot and plan, intend and declare every little thing in your life, try letting go instead. Try letting the energy of the day lead you into something unaccounted for, unknown, and unforeseen. Sometimes the best laid plans are best laid aside. Give chance a chance.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Time plods on without a care, and you get caught in it, for better or worse, but time does not matter, for it has no heart, no mind, no sense of self, it simply is. But you, you have a heart, a mind, and a sense of self that exists outside of time, is always present, and is always seeking something beyond the mundane world of time. While you are busy seeking, your spirit is seeking you. You don’t have to go anywhere special, buy anything special, hook into anything special, or eat anything special. You don’t even have to leave your home. You just have to sit quietly with yourself, as we have been teaching, and before you know it you will experience no-time, nothing but the present moment. And in that moment, you will find what you have been seeking.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

In times of trouble in the world, keep your heart center alive and well. Practice centering on your heart center as we have been teaching over the past few days. The more you do this the more familiar and automatic it will become, and you will find that it’s easier to do at a moment’s notice. Sitting calmly and quietly, with attention focused on your heart center can become an anchor for you in any storm. Try it right now, and notice how instantly something changes within your very physiology, how something within you feels different, and how automatically you tune down your body so that nothing seems to matter as much as it did a moment ago. This is a good use of your heart center.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne
