Purpose
I find that when we embody our purpose, and feel it alive inside of our whole being, not just our mind, then we are truly connected to it, and that's when it takes hold in our life.
Our bodies are rich with feelings and incredible wisdom, and our spiritual nature accesses higher wisdom. Our life's purpose is the thread that connects all three. Our minds only rest easily and think clearly when they are aligned with our body and our spiritual nature too. I used to try to find my purpose just through thinking and talking myself into action, but my body and spirit just weren't in harmony with my thoughts. My mind desired something, but something inside of me didn't. Or my instincts said to do something, but my mind stopped it. Many times I procrastinated or held myself back when fear arose. As powerful as our mind is, in order to know our life's purpose, it's important to stay aware of how it sometimes overrides what our body and spirit are trying to tell us. Listening to my body and its feelings, and trusting my inner voice and instincts, always led me to the right place at the right time, and my life's purpose has always gotten clearer and stronger every time I did.
