Many of us complain about feeling drained, as if all our energy empties out from our day to day responsibilities and encounters. To feel more vibrant and sustainable energy, it’s helpful to distinguish between the water-based concepts of Drain and Flow.Living in the Flow
Many of us have heard of “flow” states – where effortlessness and ease move through us and we enter, as many athletes call it, “the zone”.
Living in the Flow is allowing more of the Divine to move through you and as you, as Rev. Michael Bernard Beckwith says. It is as much about receiving as it is about doing and giving, just as the tides of the ocean come in and out.
Allowing the Good: Open to the Flow of the Universe
Just as we allow the rain to fall on the earth and nurture the land, we can allow the good to rain down on us from the Universe without effort.
We have entered the rainy season – at last – here in drought-stricken Northern California. We had our first good rain a few days ago and I was filled with gratitude. I opened my arms wide and let in the sweet droplets of life-sustaining water.
It caused me to reflect on the process of allowing. I’ve written about receiving in my blog, but allowing, although similar, addresses the idea of receiving in a different way. Allowing has many powerful meanings that can open us to the Divine Flow of the Universe.
