Otter Spirit 🦦
Today, we are greeted by Otter Spirit, who reminds us that we are never alone and encourages us to connect both within and without to experience this in our lives.
We are often so busy that we do not connect with others even though we interact with them and cross paths with them. Sometimes we are too busy or unwilling to participate in community and/or we wall ourselves off or become lost in our own world.
Otter Spirit encourages us to become present to each moment of our lives. When we engage with presence, we experience each event and exchange very differently. It is as if the world suddenly can be viewed through an array of color.
Otter Spirit also encourages us to communicate and share who we are with others. This can be as simple as a kind word or a smile. We may also take note of others and aknowledge them with presence. When we do so we engage with life on multiple levels and dimensions. And, we experience greater caring between humans.
Otter Spirit further recognizes how important physical touch is to us, particularly in allowing us to feel safe, supported, and not alone. This too is invaluable and can be very simple. We all benefit from giving and receiving hugs, or even a simple pat on the hand or arm. It is something we may be able to provide for ourselves or seek from another. It may be romantic or platonic.
By bringing presence to our communication and physical touch, we also recognize more of our own needs, as well as those of others. This increases our compassion.
What do you need to support you in cultivating more presence in your life?
Do you need to speak more of your truth?
Do you need more physical touch?
Are you denying yourself these or other things that may support you and your life? If so, why? What are you willing to do today to change this?
How can you express more love today?
When we give more, we receive more - this applies here as well for everything is energy.
And, when we celebrate the blessings of love and friendship in our lives, we open the doors to receiving all kinds of abundance, as well as a new experience of physical life.
Take the time to connect with Otter 🦦 Spirit today as part of your daily spiritual practice and self-care.
Are you creating limitations on the love and support you are willing to receive from others?
Are you limiting yourself to one source of support - whether it be a single person or activity?
Do you believe you deserve love and support?
What does community mean to you?
Are you willing to reach out today to someone you know and someone you do not know with kindness? How does this feel?
Otter Spirit is also tremendously adept at showing us how to incorporate more play into our lives. Play is a beautiful compliment to presence and will assist you in developing a love for life and learning to live an extraordinary life.
