As the new year travels on, we continue to include a series of personal reminders and suggestions for relaxation exercises and methods for uniting in communication with others.

Discovery is everywhere.

May these personal reminders give you the joy of discovery and enlightenment.

Each Short Cut best finds its enchantment if the exercises are performed in a quiet, relaxing space.

There are no "short cuts" if the path of awareness has not already been traveled. Each person's path is unique.

Listen to instrumental music. Let it absorb your being. Flow freely with the feeling. Let your body express the music.

PURPOSE: Finding Oneness with the flow of the Universe.

HINT: Classical and theme music are healthy starters. Relax and go with the flow.

Facets of Light - We Are Diamonds By Dusty Reed

What makes a diamond sparkle? It refracts various colors according to the brightness of Light that surrounds it.

In sunlight, as the diamond is focused on the Light, many beautiful facets can be seen reflecting from the diamond.

These facets may be called kindness, love, considerate, encouragement, smiles, tenderness, generosity, trustworthy, listening, teaching, enthusiasm, courtesy, compassion, wisdom, friendship, pleasant, appreciative, patience, honesty...

There is something in each of us, a talent that comes naturally. It is our special ray of light and it sparkles for others.

We are diamonds.

MY CHOICE
by Darrell Gudmundson

I decide now to envision a glorious future with my self triumphant.
I decide now to refuse to allow the past to be a source of self-criticism or guilt.
I choose now to release the past as my anchor, and forgive myself and others.
I decide now to use the past as my springboard to my glorious new life.
I choose now to let my inner Spirit heal all illness and restore me to vitality.
I now decide to release all pain from my body and mind.
I choose now to open myself to loving and honest relationships.
I decide now to experience only harmony.
I now choose to be guided by my inner wisdom.
I choose to follow this wisdom freely and without fear.
I let go of all fear now.
I decide now to allow this wisdom to rule my life.
I choose now to experience the pure lightness of Being.
I decide now to be relaxed, at ease, and comfortable.
I am at peace.
I now see clearly.
I now walk calmly through each day.
I am now fully awake and aware of my present power.
I now fully accept my highest possibilities as reality.
And so it is.
