Following Your Higher Consciousness, Day 2 of Living Authentically Series

"I usually get up, exercise, have breakfast, and then listen to the podcast in the shower. I love the calm after taking care of myself but before starting my day." -- Carla from Pittsburgh, PA, USA, your fellow meditator

Do you feel the need to live more authentically? With all the changes stemming from living life during the coronavirus pandemic, the world is a bit different. Are you a bit different too? This week, you are invited to realign yourself with your inner truth. Sometimes living authentically can be frightening. Allow yourself to open up to new possibilities of your inner-truth.

This is day 2 of a 7-day Living Authentically Meditation series, episodes 2243-2249. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: You're invited to take part in a Compassion Quest. This week, focus on compassion when faced with criticism, judgment and negative news. There's a journal prompt for you every day. In each episode, I'll share the day's specific inner truth focus and you're encouraged to journal about it.
