There may be times when we feel like our connection to the
universe is closed. Maybe things don't seem to be going well in our day, or
our lives, or we may feel out of our element. The truth is, the universe is
always there for us. We know that we create our experience with our thoughts,
and this is another way we need to make a conscious decision about how we
want to experience life. It is up to us to do the work of making the
connection, because nobody can do it for us, though sometimes the universe
may send us wake-up calls.
You can think of it as getting some fresh air. We are always breathing and
the air is always around us, surrounding us, moving through us. But we may
need to step outside of where we are in the moment -- physically, mentally,
or emotionally -- and make the conscious choice to take a deep breath in
order to feel the air coming in and going out. Whether this means stepping
outside physically or merely shifting our thoughts, it is only our perception
that changes; the air remains the same.
It is just as easy to reconnect with the universe. Using the same technique
as a breath of fresh air, a deep breath can bring us back to our center. As
we inhale, we fill our bodies with the oxygen needed to replenish our most
basic physical needs, allowing the air to circulate within us. Exhaling, we
release the stale, the used, the potentially toxic air, removing any blocks
that may keep us from going deeper into the stillness that lies at our center
where we connect to the universe. Feeling closed off does not need to be a
negative experience. When we become conscious of it, we can think of the
wholeness of a closed circuit, which allows electricity to connect and flow
properly. Our bodies work the same way, and when we make that connection in
our minds, it can help bring us back to the connection we seek.
