3 Minute Retreat - Soul Living

"When you do things from your Soul, you feel a river moving in you, a Joy."
​-Rumi

These three photos really speak to this quote, my work, and my joy!

I will try to practice this quote daily. On days where I struggle beyond measure to remember my joy, I don't let myself take one step before I can name a joy, a gratitude, or a peace that I have known.

If I act in the emotions I am experiencing, frustration, anger, or sadness, then all that I do is going to come from this negative place within me. But if I am accountable for my emotions, then I am able to view the situation from a place deep within my soul thus allowing true JOY to rise to the surface.

The joy is there, it will always be there. But you are responsible for living with Soul and bringing it to the surface!

How can you change the direction of the day by living with this river of Joy calling out to you?
