Hello From Katie 💗: What I Learned in the Chaos
“Life is a moving, breathing thing. We have to be willing to constantly evolve. Perfection is constant transformation.” ~ Nia Peeples
Chaos. Oh, the chaos. It seems to sneak up on me, poking its head out through the holes of all the details of life that I tell myself I’ve managed, organized and controlled. Chaos rises like lava deep from the underbelly of what I think is stable ground. It oozes out, spreading its flaming, hot substance all over the landscape of my life. It burns everything in its path, leveling all growth, all life. Chaos.

Breathe deep,
greeting the day
with peace and joy.
Let those feelings
gently wash over you.
PAUSE
Take another breath,
and see if you can imagine
walking in the woods
in the morning.
PAUSE
As you walk,
you draw in a cool breath
filled with the scent of pine.
It tickles your nose
in a wonderful way.
PAUSE
The sunlight
streams through the trees,
splashing in pools on
the ground.
PAUSE
As the light grows
through the trees,
so does your shadow.
The air warms up delicately.
PAUSE
Squirrels dash by you,
pausing to dig for acorns,
and then scuttling away.
Birds sing from the trees
like sopranos in an opera.
PAUSE
The woods curve,
and you follow the path
that leads to a tiny brook.
Imagine yourself
sitting down by the brook.
PAUSE
The water gently tumbles
over rocks–
it is still in some places,
and rushing quickly in others.
PAUSE
A large bass pushes up to the surface,
his mouth open wide,
as he pulls in his catch
of a little water bug.
PAUSE
There is an unmatched peace
at the brook,
a feeling of complete
synergy with nature.
you want to keep the image
and the feeling.
PAUSE
Imagine yourself
taking a snapshot
of the where you are
and how your feeling–
a snapshot that you
store in your mind and heart.
Hold onto that snapshot,
and allow it to stay with you,
as you ready yourself for the day.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL

The thoughts and feelings swirl,
Like snow on a stormy night.
It all feels heavy and fast.
The worries and the fears,
Mix with goals and dreams,
Creating clouds you can’t see past.
PAUSE
So close your eyes softly,
And fill yourself up,
With air that clears all away.
Calm yourself down,
And bring yourself here,
You’ve got this…just for today.
LONG PAUSE
Sometimes those dreams,
Are so far away,
It feels like they’ll never be yours.
Sometimes those demons,
Keep creeping upon you,
How long can you hold shut the doors?
PAUSE
Take a big, deep breath…
And come back inside,
Whenever it all feels too hard.
Just for today,
Do the best you can,
Love will be your guard.
LONG PAUSE
Just for today,
Let fears come and go,
Releasing your need to hold tight.
Just for today,
Believe that you can,
Everything will be alright.
PAUSE
Focus your attention,
On this moment now,
As everything else fades away.
Connect with your heart,
Become one with its beat,
See how long you can stay.
LONG PAUSE
Let gratitude bubble up,
And take notice of,
The good that surrounds you right now.
Just for today,
Let yourself create,
Without worrying about the how.
PAUSE
If all seems hopeless,
If you just can’t hold,
One more thing on your plate.
Soften into your body,
And slow down your breath,
Exhale and release all that weight.
PAUSE
Your dreams pull you forward,
And light up your path,
They create purpose and joy.
Just for today,
Take one more step towards them,
Focusing on what you enjoy.
PAUSE
Just for today,
Let fears come and go,
Releasing your need to hold tight.
Just for today,
Believe that you can,
Everything will be alright.
Namaste, Beautiful

Find a quiet space,
nestle in,
and let yourself just be.
PAUSE
Take a moment to just breathe.
Just breathe and be.
Just breathe and be.
PAUSE
Imagine, if you can,
being transported
to a woodland clearing
with hundreds of
brightly colored flowers
blooming in the
morning sunlight.
PAUSE
As you gaze at the clearing,
a tall flower
with dozens of tiny bell-shaped petals
catches your eye.
It is foxglove–the favored fairy flower.
PAUSE
You approach the flower gingerly,
hoping to see a fairy.
You lean near the flower,
watching and listening.
PAUSE
After a few moment,
you hear a high-pitched twitter,
like a tiny bell.
The fairies are active.
PAUSE
You wait patiently,
And after a while
a tiny, green fairy
emerges from the flower.
She flies toward you,
her iridescent wings
glistening in the sun.
Then she pauses
near your face.
PAUSE
You nod your head slightly,
and at that very moment,
the fairy looks down at the flower.
The foxglove is bowing to you.
PAUSE
The fairy smiles
and begins twittering again.
This time you understand her
when she tells you of the
sacred nature of the foxglove.
“It bows when a spiritual creature
passes by it.”
Then, the fairy flies away.
PAUSE
You take a moment
and watch the fairy
flit from flower to flower,
and then look once more
at the bowing foxglove.
But this time,
you bow to the fairy flower,
because you will take with you
the confirmation
of your deep spiritual self.
And let it bloom in you always.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL

Find a comfortable chair or bed,
and settle in.
Close your eyes,
and let your body unwind
and your mind let go.
PAUSE
Breathe.
Breathe.
Breathe and relax.
PAUSE
Now, visualize
walking in a lovely garden
during springtime.
And in this garden
is a striking purple lilac bush.
PAUSE
Next to the lilac bush
is a gardener
who sees you coming.
Instinctively, he gets up
and cuts some lilac for you.
PAUSE
After a while,
you find a bench,
and sit down to admire
your lilac.
You draw in a breath,
breathing in the
ethereal smell
of the lilac.
PAUSE
Now, imagine closing your eyes
while holding the lilac,
and as you do,
you feel a sense of protection
surrounding you.
Lilac is a source of spiritual protection
against negative energy.
PAUSE
You breathe in
more of the lilac’s fragrance.
And this time,
a creative energy
surges in you.
You feel inspired to act, to create.
So, you close your eyes
and imagine what to create.
Really take a moment
and allow yourself
to feel creative and inspired.
That is another gift
of the lilac.
PAUSE
Your time is the garden
is coming to a close.
So, you get off the bench
and begin walking.
And, as you walk,
you hear a tiny voice whisper
more about the lilac.
It is a symbol of innocence and purity.
PAUSE
Now, with your eyes still closed,
bring your consciousness
back to the present.
And, along with your awareness,
bring back the gifts of the lilac.
Now is the time to embrace them:
Protection from negative energy.
Creativity and inspiration.
Innocence and purity.
Breathe,
and let the scent of the lilac
live in you,
along with its beautiful spiritual gifts.
