Some claim that finding happiness is not what we seek in life, but rather it is to find joy and to appreciate the small things in life.
It is easy in the material world to focus on the big things in life. We are fascinated by the largest creatures, but fail to realize the microscopic beings on this planet are some of the most important species alive. Whether its a simple act of kindness, or being awestruck by the beauty of nature, there is beauty in simplicity. For most people, the lack of joy in their life results from the discontent in life, or a disconnection from the spirit. Building a relationship with God is very necessary to seek the simple joys in life. Psalm 94:19 New International Version (NIV) "When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy."

The holiday is a time for cheer, but for some it's a time of many tears. For some, the holidays is a season of loneliness as people don't have family, friends, or even a home. Today I was part of a 24-hour prayer circle, where I prayed from 11am-12pm, sending light, love and healing energy to many around the planet, and asking God to work through them.
I have come to believe that in this digital age, we need help from the spiritual realm. Our body is a temple and our minds can live in heaven or hell. Some can navigate life easily, but for most we need God's help. We need to stop worrying about the "how" and apply action, knowing that God will help us in this life. Faith and hope are necessary to aide us through the hardship. You have to believe and understand that things happen in divine timing. The first prayer starts with you.

Charles Dickens was a smart man. Maybe I'm biased since we share the same birthdate and I continuously find our analytical skills on the same wave length of looking at society through a similar lens.
Dickens meandered throughout the poor parts of the city, and on Christmas recognized the aura of joy that flowed in the air in the poorer neighborhoods. He realized that the joy and happiness that Christmas brings shouldn't last for one day. But, it should be a spirit that lasts everyday. Harder said than done, what can you do to keep the Christmas spirit alive throughout the year??

I've mentioned this before, but it seems that social media has changed human behavior. It is common to see the "inner monster," or the ego, explode with their opinion, perspective and perception.
While analyzing society over the last few years, I believe that humans are not able to absorb information from mass exposure to people, news and the media. And as one notices, most do not communicate with grace and ease. Grace can be seen as the courteous goodwill or the simple elegance or refinement in attitude and behavior. If we want things to improve in life, we need to touch every human heart with grace to further enhance theripple effect in life.

Fall is the season of exposing true colors. While the sun is in Libra, the ruler of beauty, nature reveals it's true colors prior to transitioning down its path towards the sign of death, Scorpio.
True colors is symbolic to the authenticity of one's soul. Humans are flawed creatures, so one's authentic self may not be of the light, but somehow during this season it is easy to discover who people are. Like a beautiful peacock, let your soul, your talent, your skill shine in the light during this transition where darkness overtakes the light. How does one do this? Take the time to disconnect from the artificial light and walk into the natural light to let that creative energy bubble from within. And when it's time that energy will channel itself out to the real world. Be authentic. And never be afraid of taking new paths and directions in life.

Whether it's life responsibilities or making a personal change, do you ever feel like you have a laundry list of things to do, change or become? Looking at that long list can be daunting.
So, what do you do? Make small changes, one step at a time. Here is an example. Lately, I've felt the need to clean out my closets after attending a clothing swap. I've looked at so many clothes that I don't wear and although emotionally attached, it was time to let it go and donate them to a woman's shelter. My apartment was messy for about 4 weeks, and the mess drove me nuts. But one by one - whether piles, hangers or drawers - I had to go through everything to get rid of stuff although I wanted the entire project done in 48 hours. Most of life doesn't work like this especially if balancing work, kids and other responsibilities. See more thoughts in my Youtube video below on how to make small, one percent changes.

I've had many talks lately with people about health, wellness, spirituality and God. Some own their own business, and others want to invest in a business. Why do some people or businesses succeed? And others don't?
In wellness, besides fads and trends, some people choose to join the crowd where other people choose to go against the grain. Those who promote lifestyle changes will never be popular with the masses, because it's not extreme, vulgar, sexy and doesn't promote a 30-day gaurantee. However, a lifestyle change and living in harmony with the mind, body and spirit is the "way" to a joyful life. Regardless if one is spiritual or not, most spiritual theories or notions promote the ideas of having faith, hope and understanding that things happen in its divine timing. Those who want the spread the joy of healthy living, living in harmony with nature, or that God loves them, feel like they're swimming upstream, or talking to the air. It is a battle, but the fight must be fought.

Wherever you are in America, fall foliage is here. Whether it's at its peak or in its beginning, the leaves are starting to change and show its true colors.
I believe God created nature and the world. And God also equipped our brain with logic and reasoning. Minds indoctrinated by religion see humans separate from nature. If God created humans, nature and the world, why would he want to separate us from nature? It doesn't make logical sense because humans are creatures of the earth. Every season is symbolic to some meaning. And the leaves teach us the behind every green facade lies their true colors, which gets exposed during fall. The word "fall" itself is so meaningful to the season as the tree must let go of its leaf when the timing is right. Now some say God chooses every leaf that falls off the tree, but regardless of the argument, the tree let's go, endures a season of hibernation and then rebirths itself to welcome to new leaves, fruits and flowers.

I recently went to Estes Park and re-discovered the powerful healing benefits of nature. I've always known this, but worrying about work all year has refrained me from taking time off work.
I started the summer in Arizona and discovered a vortex at Canyon Ranch for where I learned how to heal within that spiral of energy. I ended the summer in Estes, and spoke with a psychic who stated that the energy is off, even in Estes. She stated that many people are there to use the park for their "glory" (like Instagram photos) but are not using the energy of the land for their own good or healing. I completely agreed. Something I learned on the camino, was understanding this power of movement integrated with the energy of the land. In Morraine Meadow, I looked to the sky and asked for healing. I asked the elk that stood near me to heal me, to send me energy and let Mother Earth take away my pain, worries and concerns. Even though I cried, I felt this sense of bliss that overcame me. While back in the real world, I miss the energy of Estes, but know how to take those lessons and remember the healing power of nature in everyday life. I suggest everyone to take a walk in the woods or some natural setting that can absorb and transmute the negative energy within.

The mundane human thinks of my mystical, spiritual beliefs as eccentric, and maybe even crazy. There is a point after years of spiritual development that one begins to view the world differently.
I believe there is a battle between the artificial and the natural world. And today, humans are so addicted to their technology that they are clearly operating from an artificial consciousness. They have been influenced or socially engineered by the master mind manipulators. My soul fights for the natural world, as it has fought for many causes in former lives. Today, I challenge people to see how ego-centric they've become and how their lives, health and mindset differs today as compared to before the birth of mass technological use. Take a moment and think how artificial we've become. Artificial ingredients. Processed food. Synthetic fibers. Pharmaceutical drugs. Virtual Reality. Video games. Pornography. Reality TV. Drama-inducing media. E-books. Bitcoin. Worshipping Hollywood. Chronic selfies about our lives being amazing. Machine-operated warehouses. We are being manipulated to become the walking dead, or zombies, mindless spiritually-dead humans inside a clinically alive body. How far down the rabbit hole do we want to go? Or are we already too deep?
