(I've written over the past few months about STER: Selflessness, Timelessness, Effortless, and now Richness. Click on the links to catch up/review)

Whenever I think about Richness, I think about a quality, an experience, a feeling of something full, abundant, complete. I remember things like a complex red wine, dark chocolate, damp soil, a thick duvet...

When I think about richness within life, that feeling of fullness comes back again and again. That time isn't sitting empty, that what we consume is full of flavor, nothing missing, nothing watered down. That the experience is full of wisdom, or possibility, nurturing, or freedom, and that it will either continue to impact, and/or will draw something else in that is also plentiful or abundant.

I think that over the past years, we have suffered through periods where life did not feel rich. We felt robbed of connection, the ability to move or travel, the possibility of making firm plans for the future....

So today, we continue to Effortlessness and the beauty that lies within. (If you'd like to catch up/refresh, you can read about STER, Selflessness, and Timelessness via links within)

For just a moment, close your eyes and play with the word effortless...

So why do we move away from it so often, so easily?

If you're anything like me, you are used to trying hard, doing, striving, pushing, making things...

Hello beautiful beings, I hope that you are enjoying the change of season, feeling supported by the cycles of life!

Today, I wanted to continue our deep dive into STER, and more specifically on the concept of Timelessness.

Have you ever experienced a moment that stretched out longer than it 'should'? We often have days that go by in a flash, or hours that drag on. Usually this relates to the activities we are engaged in, where our focus lies, the ways we are using our time, and how connected/resonant we feel in those moments...

But I want you to focus on the small moments where time stood still, where life slowed down, maybe colours were brighter, sound was deeper, where you were so IN the moment, that that was all that existed.

So many of us are looking at ourselves from the outside. Recalling a memory is like watching a movie, where we witness what we remember, but it may feel outside of us, as though it could have happened to anyone. This is usually...
