SOUL SPARKS - all love surrounds you.

"Remember the infinite possibilities that are born of knowing that all love surrounds you, lives within you and that all life is so very, very precious, there is not a moment to lose. To love now all that you can, surrender to its power to the heart of it, and know that in the beginning, as in the end it is all that is or ever was or ever will be. For you are the letter written by God, you are the mirror that reflects the divine, seek inside for all you want is all you are, there is nothing above or beyond - Nigel Lott Get full access to Tea and Zen - Threads at teaandzen.substack.com/subscribe

CONTEMPLATION ON STARDUST

Being that our atoms in our body were created at the start of our universe during the Big Bang. So if you look at it this way, then you’re about 13.7 billion years old.But your body also has heavier elements like copper and zinc. These atoms were created in the dying stage of an exploding star called a supernova.These elements were flung into space as dust and gas (stardust). Eventually, they coalesced to become part of a new forming solar system and our planet Earth.Because you are made from matter from the Earth, you are made of stardust from old supernovas. So turns out, your body is made up of bits and pieces of star and cosmic dust. E.H. Your essence however is an energy called love, extending far beyond any matter or form, existing everywhere simultaneously in equal measure. Compared to this core reality all form and matter are but illusion.

A Summons For Healing

Gentle spirits of the earth and sky, we gather here with open hearts and minds, seeking the balm of healing for all who suffer, and the light of hope for those in darkness. We feel the gentle touch of divine grace, a reminder that within every soul resides the power to heal and within every heart the capacity to love.Let us call upon the ancient wisdom of the earth and the boundless compassion of the heavens to guide us on this journey of restoration and to infuse our intentions with strength and clarity.May healing flow like a gentle stream, washing away the pain and sorrow that weigh us down, and nourishing the seeds of resilience and renewal that they may blossom into flowers of wholeness with each breath.Let us release our burdens and with each exhale let us welcome healing energy into the depths of our being where wounds reside and into the vast expanse of our souls where dreams take flight.May your intentions be pure, our actions be kind, and our hearts be open to the possibility of miracles. For in the sacred space of healing, all things are possible and all souls find solace.As we stand together in this circle of love and light, let us offer prayers of gratitude for the gift of healing and let us extend our hands and hearts to one another in solidarity, compassion and unconditional love.May the energy of healing permeate every fiber of our being and radiate outward to touch the lives of all beings, creating a ripple effect of love, compassion and healing that knows no bounds and transcends all barriers.And lastly, but not least, in this moment of sacred connection, we affirm our commitment to healing and to the belief that in the presence of love, miracles do unfold and all wounds find their cure.

SOUL SPARKS - Effective Communication

Effective communication is essential in personal, professional, and social contexts. Here are some best practices to enhance communication:* Active Listening: Pay full attention to the speaker, maintain eye contact, and refrain from interrupting. Show that you're listening by nodding or providing verbal cues.* Clarity and Conciseness: Communicate your message clearly and concisely. Avoid jargon or complex language that might confuse the listener.* Empathy: Try to understand the other person's perspective and emotions. Empathetic communication fosters trust and understanding.* Respect: Treat others with respect and courtesy, regardless of differences in opinion or background.* Nonverbal Communication: Pay attention to body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice, as these can convey a lot of information beyond words.* Feedback: Provide constructive feedback that is specific, actionable, and respectful. Likewise, be open to receiving feedback from others.* Adaptability: Adapt your communication style to suit the preferences and needs of your audience. Some people may prefer direct communication, while others may appreciate a more diplomatic approach.* Stay Focused: Stay on topic and avoid drifting off into unrelated subjects during a conversation.* Ask Questions: Encourage dialogue by asking open-ended questions that invite the other person to share their thoughts and feelings.* Use Positive Language: Frame your messages in a positive light whenever possible. This can help maintain a constructive atmosphere and reduce misunderstandings.* Be Mindful of Timing: Choose an appropriate time and place for important conversations. Avoid discussing sensitive topics when either party is stressed or distracted.* Written Communication: In written communication, use proper grammar, punctuation, and formatting. Be mindful of tone and clarity, especially in emails and text messages.* Cultural Sensitivity: Be aware of cultural differences in communication styles and norms. Respect cultural diversity and adjust your communication approach accordingly.* Follow-Up: After a conversation, follow up with a summary of key points or action items to ensure clarity and accountability.* Above all remember the value of silence, the gap between words where all truth can be found, and with a willing open heart, most often is.By incorporating these best practices into your communication habits, you can enhance your relationships, minimize misunderstandings, and achieve better outcomes in various aspects of life.

SOUL SPARKS

‘WANTS AND NEEDS’You may have noticed that life doesn't always grant us our wishes, no matter the hearts desire. It's possible to say that instead, we receive what we truly need, intricately woven into the fabric of our destiny. In essence, we always receive what is necessary to fulfill our crown of purpose.When you ask the universe for something, do so with an acknowledgment and a caveat, recognizing that it may not align with the grand design for you to attain what you desire. Therefore, make your requests, but then release them, trusting that there exists a greater plan at play.
