Harness Your Energy

Everything and everyone is energy. Harness your energy and use it to benefit our world. We are all wired with miraculous gifts. 

No more waiting to open your gift. Open your gift and open the doors. Doing this will open doors for others. 

When is the last time you did something that you really love to do? If you haven’t; please do. If you have; how did it feel? Freeing? Or not? 

Many people phone friends to check in from time to time but when is the last time you phoned yourself to check in? 

Who are you? What do you love? When did you know? Where are you now in your journey? Why are you here? How do you know? How do you feel? 

Time to pick up the phone and call. Get in touch with yourself. Harness and protect your energy. In this world and beyond the yond, be you, yourself and you. 

Harnessing your energy is harnessing Y O U. 

Remember that. Remember Y O U.

Y: Young, wild and free

O: Only one of you

U: Unique, so be yourself

The Gift of Play: Everybody Needs It

Everybody needs a little love in their lives but you know what else everybody needs? Play.

You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation. —Plato

While in Vang Vieng, Laos, we happened to catch children playing from a far distance. No grown ups present. They climbed through tree roots, explored water, caught fish and laughed a lot. They waded water in the stream made their way out and found a large paint roller and rolled it all around in the dirt. I smiled and reminisced as my nostalgic childhood materialized.

“That’s what play looks and feels like. That’s honoring childhood.” My partner and I started sharing about our childhoods. How we were fortunate that ours looked like the childhood the children were playing in right before our very eyes. Childhood is finite and infinite at the same time. It lives on.

No fences, no dittos, no rules. Freedom. To feel and play. True play gives us a push into being in our body and mind. Everything is connected: spatial awareness to making connections. 

Play gives children practice to what they are learning and observing. It works for grown ups too in life, family and business. Want to learn more about your colleagues in less time? Keep it simple. Kick the typical “meeting” and get out there and play. 

Play Opens Doors

No matter where children and grown ups live or what they’re overcoming, play is essential.

It opens doors and shows us what we’re capable of and what we’re passionate about. It shows us who we are and are meant to be. We all are competent, capable and creative human beings. From birth until we die, we have to play in our purpose.

Play Promotes Collaboration

Listening and talking. Everyone plays a part in it. From role play / interacting with others to make believe / symbolic thinking. Even without someone else…being able to collaborate with yourself in your own world is the art of meditation. Play is meditation.

Play Gives Grace to Fail and Try, Try Again

Riding a bike to kicking a ball. You ride, you crash. You kick, you miss. You try again.

What did you love to play as a child? As an adult? Did it change? Why?
