Listen Later

November is a time of reflection and gratitude and in this episode of Today I Am Alive! Margaret explains how, even in our darkest and most challenging moments, the sun will rise again. Learn how to be grateful for your past trauma, discover how to overcome limiting beliefs, and understand that we can turn dark into light.


KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Be grateful for the dark times because it is during those times that you will grow. No matter how hard it is, the sun will always rise again. Despite today’s crisis of poverty, war, political disaster, human trafficking and domestic abuse rising, climate change, scoring heat and drought, and people suffering and in pain. The sun will rise again.
  • It can be hard to find things you are grateful for or even have the awareness to notice the good in our lives when we are burdened with so many challenges and a feeling.
  • Everything happens for a reason. Dark times have been thrown into our past to test our strengths and weaknesses and to show us who we are on whom we choose to be.
  • Dark times are actually here to bring out something amazing and magnificent. Dark times enable us to grow throughout our lives, change for the better, and overcome limiting beliefs to bring about deeper and more meaningful beliefs.
  • We are here to turn darkness into light and become real core creators. To build a divine world with exquisite presence and mindfulness and all of nature's natural beauty.

“Some people may fear dark times in an angry, anxious, and stressful way. While others like myself embrace them because they give us the time to soulfully, meditate and connect with ourselves, The Creator, and nature.”
