Words Of Affirmation: Lay Down The Shield

Feel.

Feel all the places where you tense,

Where you tighten to protect that little muscle that twinges in your jaw,

In the back of your neck,

Your hips,

Across your chest.

Feel.

Feel the safe space that you create for yourself.

Feel the safe spaces that the universe gifts you.

Feel the places in your life and in yourself where it is safe to let go of that armor,

Of that tightening,

To release,

To drop the shield.

For the hand that holds the shield is not the hand that is open to receive.

Where can you let go of the shield?

Where can you open to receive all of the gifts that the universe brings to you?

Love offerings from the universe flowing towards you.

It is safe to say yes.

It is safe to open your hand,

Your heart,

Your vision.

It is safe to drop the shield and receive.
