First, I want to tell you a story about how the Universe is always conspiring in your favor, even when it seems otherwise.

Last week, I was bringing in wood for the fire, when a poorly stacked piece jumped off the pile, and landed directly on my foot. I could feel the injury growing, so I screamed to dissipate the energy (yes, it really works). Even after that, I had the nauseating feeling of a broken bone. This wasn’t good.

I already struggle with walking due to a neurological issue, and a broken foot would seriously complicate my life. I quickly went through blame and anger, then onto options for living with a break. It didn’t take long to reach the only reasonable solution: healing is the only option.

This all happened quickly, maybe 20 minutes. I got my ice pack, hobbled to the couch, and took off my slipper to reveal the already black, blue, and spreading bruise. I applied the cold, and spent the next 30 minutes mentally repeating with every single breath ‘healing is the only option‘. When I was done, the pain had stopped, the bruise was smaller, and I could wiggle all my toes.

Then the epiphany hit… this was the answer, not just for my foot, but my whole life. And not just for me, but for each individual, as well as the collective. Healing is the only option.

Then the symbology started… we spend so much time and energy “trying” to manifest something, that we’ve missed the simplicity. We think manifesting takes great effort and emotion, and usually ends up looking like a toddler having a tantrum (I want!). In reality, it’s more like driving a car. You have to be aware of where you want to go, and make the appropriate turns to get there, but it isn’t an emotional effort. You don’t plead, or demand the can turn left – you just turn. Same thing. Healing is the only option.

When life happens, and you get a flat tire or run out of gas, it may be inconvenient, but you address the issue and keep driving. Both driving and living require awareness to get you to your destination. When you notice your awareness slipping, just get your focus back on track.

For yogis, the goal is to be aware of every breath. My goal is to be aware of every thought. I’m sure those two are linked… complete awareness. It’s good to have a goal. Something to strive for.

So for yourself, and the collective, always return your wandering mind to one thought: healing is the only option. Love heals all, so really, love is the only option. Find a personal mantra that resonates with you, and we will all benefit.

See? The Universe is always leaving a trail of bread crumbs, even when it looks like misfortune. With everything that happens, know it’s happening for you, not to you. Let’s do this… together. Healing is the only option.
