  | | Brand-New Day |
by Madisyn Taylor When today is not going well, it is tempting to focus on tomorrow as a blank slate with all the possibilities that newness provides. It is true that tomorrow will be a brand-new day, but we do not have to wait until tomorrow to start fresh. We can start fresh at any moment, clearing our energy field of any negativity that has accumulated, and call this very moment the beginning of our brand-new day.
There is something about the sunrise and the first few hours of the morning that make us feel cleansed and rejuvenated, ready to move forward enthusiastically. As the day wears on, we lose some of this dynamic energy and the inspiration it provides. This may be why we look forward to tomorrow as providing the possibility of renewal. Many traditions consider the light of the rising sun to be particularly divine in its origins; this is why so many people in the world face east when performing ritual. We too can cultivate that rising sun energy inside ourselves, carrying it with us to light our way through any time of day or night, drawing on its power to awaken and renew our spirits.
One simple way to do this is to carry an image or a photograph of the rising sun with us in our wallet or purse. We can also post this image on our wall at work or at home, or have it as our screensaver on our computer. When we feel the need to start fresh, we can take a moment to gaze at the image, allowing its light to enter into our hearts. As we do this, we might say out loud or quietly to ourselves, I am ready to let go of the past and start anew. We might visualize anything we want to release leaving us as we exhale, and as we inhale, we can take in the fresh energy of the eastern sun, allowing it to light the way to a brand-new day. |

 | | Let Your Views Flourish | Cancer Horoscope January 31, 2017 You could be more open to different points of view today, which could mean that you are willing to look at the world through a nonjudgmental lens. You may find that suspending your inner critic brings you to greater realizations about the mysteries that life holds for you. As you uncover new and exciting ideas today, you may wish to view them with a certain level of detachment and simply name the ideas. For example, instead of thinking that you agree or disagree with something, you could mentally create a phrase or sentence that objectively describes the information. Seeing the world in a neutral way can help you unearth new and exciting ideas that you might have dismissed previously, and you may find that your picture of the world expands.
Learning to view our thoughts impartially allows us to broaden our minds and be more receptive to ideas with which we might not agree. Even if we think we are open-minded, our minds have the tendency to turn off when we are exposed to things that conflict with our beliefs. Observing our minds and reactions with detachment, however, means that we simply accept the ideas around us. We allow them to penetrate the inner reaches of our minds first so that we will be able to examine them evenhandedly and in more depth later. By watching instead of forming opinions today, you will be more receptive to different ideas and your own viewpoints will flourish and progress. |

 | | Letting Yourself Be Seen |
by Madisyn Taylor When we allow ourselves to be witnessed by another, we cannot help but be transformed by the experience. Whether we are sharing a personal experience, standing in front of friends to celebrate a special occasion, or expressing our unbridled joy or sorrow in front of a loved one, we are allowing ourselves to be seen and experienced in a very intimate way. Not only are we baring ourselves to someone else, but we are allowing that person to hold a very specific kind of space with us so this powerful act can take place. To be witnessed is to let ourselves be seen as we truly are in that moment.
Our friends and loved ones can easily be witnesses for us, if only we are brave enough to let them. Your next birthday may be the perfect occasion to experience this sacred act: Invite your friends and loved ones to your special day. During the celebration, stand in front of them and thank them for being there for you. Feel their gratitude, attention, warmth, and support, while noticing the sense of safety you feel as they surround you. If you feel inspired, share your innermost thoughts about the day and your life. You may be surprised at the feelings of peace and validation that arise within you, when you feel safe enough to go deep into your soul and share yourself with those you trust.
Anyone who has ever seen love, admiration, acceptance, or appreciation reflected in a friend or loved one's eyes knows how transformative that experience can be. When you bare yourself to another, you are giving them the gift of you and showing them that they also matter. In letting yourself be witnessed, you are letting others into your intimate space, stepping in the sacred container they have created for you, and creating a cauldron of positive affirmation, support, love, and goodwill that will stay with you forever. |
DailyOM Course Spotlight by Deepak Chopra In this life-changing course, Deepak Chopra reveals "the forgotten miracle"--the body's infinite capacity for change and renewal. "You cannot take advantage of this miracle," Chopra says, "unless you are willing to completely reinvent your body, transforming it from a material object to a dynamic, flowing process. Your physical body is a fiction. Every cell is made up of two invisible ingredients: awareness and energy. This course details five recent breakthroughs of the body that lead to self-transformation by changing the distorted energy patterns that are the root cause of aging, infirmity, and disease. Transformation can't stop with the body, however; it must involve the soul. The soul--seemingly invisible, aloof, and apart from the material world--actually creates the body. Only by going to the level of the soul will you access your full potential, bringing more intelligence, creativity, and awareness into every aspec! t of your life.

| | Question What You Know | Cancer Horoscope January 30, 2017 Your desire to be well-informed could make you feel open-minded today. You may feel that seeking knowledge or education can send you in new directions and may expand your concept of the world around you. Perhaps this would be a good time to explore some aspect of life that is completely different from what you know, such as delving into another culture through language or the arts or reading opinions about issues that contradict your own. Should you notice yourself feeling uncomfortable or awkward with what you are learning, you can try breathing through the experience. Using your breath in this way can help you to overcome your fear of the unknown and become more receptive to understanding something outside your usual realm of existence. Exploring something that takes you out of your usual routine and frame of mind could challenge you to question what you have taken as fact, and might bring greater insights into your li! fe.
Learning takes place when we expose ourselves to experiences, thoughts, and materials that encourage us to question our belief systems critically. Even if we are well-read, unless we make the effort to engage in something that is difficult and challenging for us, our ideas about the world can stagnate, for it is the act of questioning itself that can propel us forward in our thinking and contribute to our intellectual evolution and eventual transformation. By searching for ways to broaden your mind today, you will come to a greater and deeper understanding of the world. |
