Last year I read a fantastic book called The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself
by Michael Singer. I heard about the book through Oprah’s Soul Sunday episode where she interviewed the author. The book is deep and I found myself only being able to read a few pages before I needed to sit with the content for a while. I also found myself reading the same few pages over and over again before going on.
This book is exactly what I needed in my life and I’ll probably share more down the road but, for today, I have one thought I’d like to share with you that popped into my head this morning during a reflective moment.
Everything will be okay when you are okay with everything. ~ Michael Singer
I find so much power in this single statement. Our monkey mind…senseless chatter…is often what causes us to not feel okay. And how much of that monkey mind is even real? Have you ever watched your mind turn a simple situation into so much more and blow everything out of proportion? I know I have. That is not a space I want to live in!
Trust your gut and know that it really will be okay as soon as you are okay with everything!
That might be another book for an online book club. I came across it at the book store the other day and I thought of you. I still haven’t read it, so maybe I need to! If I get three signals to read something, I usually try and listen to it!
It is truly one of my favorites…life-changing favorites and it would make for a great book club discussion.
That and “The Untethered Soul”!
