How do you take your tea, drink it black, or add milk and sugar? Do you like it steeped or like me three dips of the tea bag, and you are good to go? When you pour your tea, do you watch it fill the cup to make sure you do not overfill and end up with a mess?

Now let's talk about your energy cup are you mindful not to overfill your cup so you don't spill out what you do not have? Are you leaving yourself a mess to clean at the end of the day having to pick up the pieces you were too exhausted to see?


There is a proper way to utilize your energy to the best of your ability that enables you to be YOUR best and create an environment that improves the quality of life in others. You can do this without burning out and are more proficient when you don't burn yourself out. Often, we become the "YES" man without recognizing it is happening. We try our best to help everyone around us and lack the accountability to help ourselves. If your tea is not tasty to you then you don't fully experience the joy of drinking that cup. The same goes for our energy, if we don't make it beneficial to our own soul's purpose, we are not beneficial to anyone. Our energy field is massive and expands far beyond what we can imagine. Using this field to shine brings joy and happiness to those directly around us and those impacted from a distance.


The saying goes one act of kindness touches 1000 souls. This includes that act of kindness towards self. When you go out and feel good about life, even in times of struggle. The more likely you will share a smile, a kind word, an act of kindness. In turn, the person whom you touched, will start to feel good and they too will spread an act of joy to another, and the chain begins. This energy field can reach right across the globe as joy is felt.


Our energy comes from both positive and negative thoughts, we either expand or deflate our field. The more expansive we become the more opportunity is awakened. We see the good in all and dish out our best selves to our best ability. We understand that saying no is not an insult, we can decline still expand with positivity. It takes recognizing how full our cup of tea is and what room we have left before overflowing. Be mindful of what our bodies are telling us, when it is quietly whispering stop, that is the time to listen as that voice gets louder our body's state of ease gets weaker. This is when the disease enters our field and illness prevails.


Give yourself the gift of priority. Every morning, start the day with a smile a complimentary thought. "How wonderful am I, a true joy to be around." "What a beautiful morning, I glow with pride." Thoughts that uplift your spirit and manifest a day filled with glowing accomplishments no matter the size. A day you can look back on, with a grin of pleasure. Throughout your day as stresses arise; stop, breathe, refocus and smile. Always face a trial with a glowing heart. Knowing you are not alone and that this also will pass. Take the lesson granted you at this moment and carry it through all experiences.
