Honoring Your Life's Purpose

We all have a specific life's purpose. The presence and experience of others in your life helps you grow in consciousness, creating a chain-like reaction that has a profound effect on the collective awareness on the planet.

It is the ultimate goal for all living things to fully express our gifts and talents, to exalt and uplift the spirit of those around you by being and expressing the beautiful gift you are. If you are like most and are still trying to find your life's purpose, there are vital spiritual questions to ask yourself:

• What is the unique gift held within me?
• What is my talent and soul's purpose?
• How can my purpose serve others?

Allow your true, innate talent to blossom and put it at the service of others. By accepting your gift, you honor yourself and the nature of life itself. By living each day with the goal of being who you really are, you not only awaken the souls of others, but also allow them to express themselves with confidence and trust in their infinite possibilities.

But identifying and keeping in touch with your life's purpose can be a challenge. Below you will learn how to keep in touch with your essence and its message. It is vital to practice these kinds of spiritual exercises, but easy to lose touch with our spiritual goals. As important as it is to your body to exercise, it is equally important to give yourself a regular spiritual workout. Commit to practicing these exercises often and be true to yourself and your essence.

Your Spiritual Workout

Sit in front of your altar or in a quiet place where you feel very comfortable and at peace. Close your eyes, stay silent and relax. Then choose the appropriate aromatic blend below and apply it on the crown chakra (fontanelle), third eye (between the eyebrows), and the solar plexus. Also apply the blend every morning on the solar plexus, crown chakra, and third eye. Pour a few drops into the palm of your hands and breathe it in deeply.

Focus your attention by following the steps below:

1. Be still in the here and now.
2. Ground your mind by visualizing yourself "sitting" in your head.
3. Feel.
4. Pay close attention to the essence which animates your body and spirit
5. Open and awaken your heart. How does it feel?
6. Ask yourself what your gift is, and stay still.
7. Keep a journal to write down the different images or messages you envision while using the blend.

Everyday, ask yourself what your talent is and how it can help others. Express it without fears and wonder. This is what will bring you the most joy.

Being versus Having Potential

We all have potential, which is the limitless field of possibilities that we can create our life from. Our potential is the small voice of our heart which calls us to explore opportunities, to create a reality from a long held dream, to become the powerful, joyful person we know we can be. But unless we are able to step into our potential, it simply exists as a possibility in our life, something that we can have at some point in the future when we are ready to change. To embrace our potential we must be willing to 'be' whatever it is calling us to become.

Many of us are stuck at the point of having potential, we know that there is something better for us and a way to live that is happier than what we have, we just don't know how to connect to it. Our fears, doubts, uncertainty and confusion stop us from taking the leap of faith that will propel us into a different future. Even if we are unhappy, living the life we know is better than stepping into something so uncertain and unknown that when we can't find a solid foundation to step onto, we ignore its call.

But being our potential does not give any guarantees either. After all, it is potential, meaning that its form is shadowy at best. Because potential calls us to become, it means putting our dreams out in the open, exposing our heart's desire to a critical, unforgiving world. What if we fail, what if no one likes us, what if we do not find any appreciation for our new self? What if we do not like what we have chosen? What do we do then? Do we make mistakes when we become our potential?

This is the critical point for potential, when we can separate ourselves from the belief that if someone approves of our potential, then we have made the right decision. Because once we step into our potential, we also challenge others to step into theirs. And they may be critical, but that is because they are receiving their own inner call to become their potential. If we could take one aspect of potential that calls to us and give it all of our effort, become what it is calling us to do, then we would take that first step and be on the path to allowing our confidence and trust lead us on a journey that would unfold into a life of being who we are from the soul level, embracing our power and giving ourselves permission to be the potential our heart knows is possible and true for us. Be the potential you know you have and allow your life to unfold for you in new, different, unknown, uncertain and miraculous ways.

**This was written by a great soul in our realm, Jennifer Hoffman.

There is no coincidence; however, the energy of the universe will always bring to you the things you seek. The above article is a HOT topic RIGHT now in our world as we are all being asked to step into our potential. The potential that is in the highest good for all, not what we THINK others want from us, but that which IS us at our deepest soul level.

The call has been made. It is now your responsibility to step in. It is a beautiful ride that has many dips, turns and hills. Hang on for this is the beginning of the rest of your glorious life.
