Have you ever stopped to feel the life within you? Just stop whatever you’re doing, and put your attention into your hands. Feel your fingers tingle with life. Feel the energy pulsing through your fingers with every heart beat. Once you feel it, you get a whole new perspective on the wonder that is within you. Now, feel the life within your feet. When you’re fully conscious of the life in your feet, draw your attention to the energy flowing through your legs, your arms, your torso, your head. You can almost imagine a you-shaped pulsing energy field glowing with life right under your skin. Walk around and feel how the energy shifts right along with you. Reach out and touch another person, and you can feel their energy too. For that matter, you can feel the energy within animals, plants (try touching a tree – it’s almost electric!), even rocks. If you can, imagine that all these energy fields are connected into a huge network of energy that supplies life to the entire world, to everything that exists here. This can change your entire view of the world and the people living in it. Send positive energy out into this network as often as you can. You could positively affect not only those around you, but also people many miles away. Note that your negative energy also affects the network, which is a good reason to dampen it down whenever you feel it. I can tell the moment I start feeling negative energy – my dogs run from the room!
Try to feel your life and your connection to the universal network as often as you can. Augment the positive field around you whenever you think of it. This is a good exercise if you’re having trouble sleeping. Feeling the life within you is very relaxing and can help you fall right back to sleep!
