With the exception of the Fall/Autumn season, Spring is my favorite time of the year.
Maybe it’s just me, but there’s something about seeing the grass, the plants, and the flowers come back to life that is both timeless and invigorating.
May is the perfect month to symbolize awakened living. That is to say, awakened living is not only about “living your best life” (as the saying goes), but also about allowing life to live through you. It’s as if Mother Nature designed the month of May to remind us about the ever-present essence of life. Is it any coincidence that Mother’s Day is in May? Who knows. But I digress.
In my experience, witnessing the awakening of life outside of us sometimes helps connect us with the awakening of life inside of us. As a therapist, I know of clients once challenged with things like anxiety, depression, or lingering old hurts who experienced significant positive shifts in health and wholeness during this time of the year.
For this post, rather than extoll the many benefits of counseling and therapy, I wanted to share some positive affirmations that honor the month of May and speak directly to the “you” that is awakening and emerging.
May you think thoughts of the highest order that serve the truth of who you are
May you feel feelings that reflect back the most beautiful aspects of your true nature (e.g., joy, bliss, and contentment)
May you demonstrate actions and behaviors in the world that serve others and the highest good
May you embody love and know the peace that passeth all understanding
Wishing you and yours true peace.
Warm regards,
