***Self-Awareness, The Way To Greater Harmony and Balance In Your Daily Life

Currently, we are faced with a crisis in consciousness, both individually and collectively on a global scale. It is an auspicious moment in which we have each received a personal invitation that calls us to a higher order; a time in which our higher qualities can be further developed for the purpose of greater service. The key to this conscious growth is a better understanding of our core nature that comes through greater self-awareness.

The most significant contribution we can make in our lifetime is to take the active stewardship of our own life. This requires embracing our whole self that comes with self-awareness. And the better we know our self, the more we can contribute. This fundamentally means that we consciously commit to ending our own suffering and more gracefully accept the sustenance of the One Source which is always supporting us.

It seems evident that our daily challenges cannot be resolved through our intellect and reason alone. Our lives are so complex, both in terms of our internal challenges and the unrelenting, external conditions—that the fragmented approach of segregating any important life area is no longer viable. These conditions require that we acknowledge the interconnectedness and interdependency of every relationship, circumstance and condition that arises in our life. It is unmistakable clear, that the old style of living is no longer sufficient. A more comprehensive and holistic approach is demanded. Self-awareness is the key that brings more harmony and balance into our lives, allowing us to make greater contributions to the world we live in.

The current global climate mirrors the same inner challenges each of us face everyday—how to bring harmony and balance into a daily reality by knowing our self better. The greatest dedication we can make in our lifetime is to accelerate our evolution, by bringing peace and harmony into our lives through embracing our whole nature, day after day. Only through our individual embodiment of these qualities can we then become the direct conduit of peace and harmony for others. Inner peace through greater self-awareness is the bridge between heaven and earth.

Toward this goal, I offer some thoughts to carry with you on your journey…that you have an abundance of these qualities of self-awareness, all the days of your life:
