​Deep, Inspiring Connections

In my own life I create circumstances that keep me "protected" from external forces that don't feel as if they are in my best interest. For example, I don't have a television, I don't subscribe to mainstream magazines, I live in a beautiful wooded area with very few neighbors, my children attend schools with like-minded families, and my social interactions are mainly with others that resonate with me and my values. 
  
Not only do I feel it is important to create a loving environment to nurture our daily lives, I have discovered it is imperative to refuel ourselves by spending quality time with those that inspire our souls.
 
This could come in many ways, but the deeper the connections, the more we gain from these sacred relationships. Of course, a spiritual service or church can offer such opportunities, but I would invite you to join the church's smaller communities, such as women's or men's groups where you can connect heart-to-heart and be seen and loved for who you are and gain inspiration from the richness of others. 

What if you gathered with a few deeply inspiring friends on a regular, perhaps weekly, basis? 

Whatever you choose make it a priority to connect, heart-to-heart and soul-to-soul on a frequent basis with people you feel deeply inspired by!
