Crystal Clarity…Accepting Our Choice!

Sometimes making a decision is difficult. Join me as we discuss an interesting perspective on how we can choose and live our best lives! My dear friend, Pierre Bensusan, has permitted me to use his track called ‘Sentimentales Pyromaniaques’ from the album 'Altiplanos'.

Namaste and welcome to the Spirit Rooms daily podcast, In the Flow with Lori Albert, Where we discuss spirituality, Meditate, And allow positivity to envelop every aspect of our souls. Welcome! So you know how you have something that you have planned, Or you want to do something and you have to make a decision, And you just aren't exactly sure which way to go. Of course you understand that. Everybody understands that, Right? Of course! There have been times in all of our lives where we are faced with options, And we just don't know the correct way to go. So I have an interesting perspective on this, And I want to share this today. It would seem that there is only one right answer to any decision that needs to be made. One right answer, One wrong answer to a lot of questions. I mean like, What to major in in college, Or which guy or girl to date. For those types of questions, You may think that you must end up with that one right person, Or that one major, And it has to be the right one. Otherwise what? You're doomed! Our decisions are dramatic, Let's face it. We all have that. So I have two points to make about this, I want you to consider that maybe there is no wrong answer or choice. You are probably thinking, What now? Here's the point. What if? I love those words. What if? Talk about motivation. Whoa, Totally motivates me. What if whichever way you choose, There is truly no wrong answer or the incorrect way to go? What if? Doesn't that take like the pressure off? Knowing that whichever choice that you make is correct. What an incredible thought. How do we get there? How do we get to that place though is the question. Here's the big reveal. You are the one that makes the decision the correct decision. I know this is a very interesting conversation. It's not the question and it's not the choices. It's you. Easy thought, But yes, It's all in how you perceive it. You make whatever decision you make, You choose the correct one. Love it. I was taught this concept sort of years ago, This way of thinking, I guess you could say, And the leader of this seminar brought someone up to the mic and said, He brought several people up to the mic and said, Okay, Choose vanilla or chocolate. Which do you choose? Now obviously some people said, Well, Of course I choose vanilla and other people said, Oh, Of course I choose chocolate. But the point is this, Don't get caught up in the question and don't get caught up in the choices. You choose it and you move forward. You make the correct choice, Whichever you make and you own it. Here's an example. You have two job offers. I know this is an incredible, It's a, It's a, For some people it's a new way of thinking, But just take it on, Try it on for size. It doesn't, You don't have to love what I say, Right? Just try this one. So you have two job offers, Completely different. They both pay great. They're both intriguing, But they're completely different from each other. How do you know which one to choose? So here's what I would do. Here's in terms of this train of thought, You create an intention of living your heart's desire and you sit in meditation with the, With that intention. And then you go inside your heart and you listen to your intuition. You choose. Now believe it or not, That's actually the easy part. You then choose whatever it is with every fiber of your being. And in doing that, You actually make the decision, The correct one. It took me years to fully understand this whole concept. And I think because, You know, I'm partially a control freak, A little bit, Partially a little bit of a control freak. And I only, The way I am is I only want to do and be and say like the right things. Now some of you won't like this, This concept, But the reality is, And I say this a lot, There is no right. There is no wrong. There just is. Does it blow your mind? It might. And it might not. Oh, Forget you. So do you have a decision that needs to be made? Let's set an intention right now. I don't mean an intention to choose the right thing necessarily. I mean choosing it. So choosing it for you. So we make an intention of, I want to live my best life. My intention is to live my best life. Okay. And then I need to make this choice and I'm choosing, I'm going to make a choice from this decision and I am going to choose it because I want it to be my heart's desire. I hope that makes sense. Just choose it and make it the right thing. So I have a great meditation plan for us. Okay. So let's get ourselves comfortable. And close your eyes whenever it feels right for you. Creating that intention to choose whatever it is as our heart's desire. My intention today is to make this choice from my heart, From my knowing, From spirit. Our affirmation for today is this. I am awake. I am aware. I am grateful. And I am clear. I am awake. I am aware. I am grateful. And I am clear. So let's take a nice deep breath in, Breathing in our intention. Holding it in and let it out. For extra effect, You may want to put your hand over your heart while we're sitting in the stillness for just a few minutes. I am awake. I am aware. I am grateful. And I am clear. I am awake. I am aware. I am grateful. And I am clear. So let's sit in the stillness for a few minutes. I'll keep the time. Let's begin. I am awake. I am aware. I am grateful. And I am clear. I am aware. I am clear. I am aware. I am clear. I am aware. I am awake. I am aware. I am grateful. And I am clear. I am awake. I am aware. I am grateful. And I am clear. I am awake. I am aware. I am grateful. And I am clear. And I am clear. Very gently be gentle with yourself. Feel the lightness in your heart now. Namaste.
