The song by Bill Withers "Lean on Me" has been twirling around in my brain all week.
“……Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
… But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
… Lean on me
When you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on...
… For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on”
As we end this chaotic year of 2022, one thing is clear: we all need one another and trying to “do it alone” really doesn’t work. That is why I love to create a community and have found that we can do it online (if we set conscious intention) as well as in person. The key is being willing to connect with others while still taking care of your own needs.
Here is a simple ritual that I love that you can do at home:
Get a plain white bowl that you can draw on.
Write and draw symbols of your spiritual and physical helpers with a permanent marker on the outside and inside of the bowl. These can be people, ancestors, animals, angels, guides, elements from nature….be creative!
Place edible seeds in the bowl.
Take one at a time as you acknowledge the support you have in your life. Keep the bowl full and every time you need support take a seed and eat it.
or plant it in the ground.
For more support check out my offerings this week and/or contact me for a personal reading,ritual, or a coaching package. And the special EARLY BIRD SAVINGS for VISION 2023 IS ONLY AVAILABLE THROUGH DECEMBER 31ST.
Until next time,
Barbara
