Dear Feel Love Now Community,

Every challenge we face is an invitation to return to divine awareness. The energy that recognizes resistance is the same energy that has the power to transform it. By staying present and observing our emotions without attachment, we open the door to peace, faith, and clarity. Fear can shift into trust. Frustration can dissolve into acceptance. The moment we choose to reconnect with our true self, we align with the infinite love and wisdom that is always available.

Here’s one of our favorite quotes from the video:

“‘Unless one has realized peace within, where else can one find it?’ [from the Bhagavad-Gita]. This is telling you: peace dwells within you at the core of your being.

So for each of us, the question is: Am I allowing the peace that I am to unfold itself? In my thoughts? In my feelings? In my words? In my actions? Am I allowing myself to live in the frequency of peace? I alone can give that gift to myself. How incredible. And what a gift to give to myself.

So today, this very day, in this now moment, I choose to create peace for myself and I choose to let that current of energy of peace be so pure that it expands. It fills my heart. It fills my body. It fills my mind. It fills my life. And then, guess what will happen? You will notice you are living in a peaceful world.”

We also shared this video on YouTube, but wanted you to be able to have it on your Substack video player as well, in case you prefer that.

Having it on Substack makes it easy for you to see any other podcasts, videos, articles, or full meditation services that might be available in the Power to Change Series by clicking here.

If you have heard this teaching before, we invite you — as Swami so often invites us — to hear it as if you are hearing it for the first time. Often we receive these teachings right when we need them.
