Inner Power

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   I practice slow and full breathing to help me relax. When someone is trying to hand you a gift, if your hands are clenched in a fist, you won't be able to receive it. In the same way, if our energy is all clamped up tight in stress and fear, we can't receive the blessings the Universe is sending our way. When we are in fear or str...

Written and Narrated by Marie T. Russell While nothing in the world really belongs to us, our lives are one thing that do belong to us. We are in charge of them completely. We get to make choices, set goals, and choose the direction in which we desire our lives to progress. Complexity As we all know, life isn't simple. It's not just a question of setting a goal and then knowing that we will reach...

Learning To Written by Phyllida Anam-Áire and Narrated by Marie T. Russell. John Muir in Gentle Wilderness: The Sierra Nevada remarked, “One is constantly reminded of the infinite lavishness of nature; no particle of her material is wasted or worn out. It is eternally flowering from use to use and beauty to yet higher beauty.” The miracle of what transpires from the fusion of egg and sperm capture...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is: I choose to live deliberately. The Affirmation for Today is reprinted from the book This Life is Yours : I will choose inspiration as my guide for anything I choose to do today. I know that whatever I let in -- by viewing it, reading it, hearing it, or participating in it -- affects me. I want my mind and heart engaged in life-enhancing,...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   Everything I give life to, lives. Our life is what we make of it. Whatever we give energy to, is what will live in us and come from us. If we give life to fear, anger, resentment, envy... that is what will live within us and come from us. If instead we give life to love, generosity, authenticity, joy, exuberance that is what will...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   With faith in my future, I take action. We all long for something. When we are sick, we long for health. When we feel tired, we desire more energy. If we are broke, we want more money. When we are sad, we look forward to feeling better. We long for the opposite of what we're experiencing, or at least for an improvement on it. We l...

Understanding 5th Dimension Consciousness and the Divine Feminine Within Us Written by Kimberly Meredith and Narrated by Marie T. Russell. As we move from the 3rd Dimension, it can feel heavy and difficult, especially during this time in history. When you experience a transformation, you may feel sad, depressed, as if your life situations are worsening. We are undergoing a mass movement into the 5...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   I choose to heal my past and evolve along with life. Our life is never static. It is ongoing and evolving continually. And as we progress along our path of life, we can also be evolving by choosing to heal from past events and traumas. When we remain fixed in grudges and resentments, we do not evolve... we do not heal. Life will t...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   I transform my pain into a blessing rather than a curse. Pain is a feeling that is very personal. When asked by a doctor to give a number for my pain, from 1 to 10, I'm always at a loss. How do you rate your pain? Unless of course it is excruciating, then you want to pick a number that is much higher than 10. But otherwise... is i...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   I honor myself by honoring my feelings. Whenever we feel out of sync with our life, we can find the clue to the reason why by accessing our feelings. Any disharmony within your being will be expressed through your feelings. When we don't pay attention to our feelings, the energy blockage remains and builds -- and can erupt in harm...

Written and Narrated by Marie T. Russell. We are so blessed to live on Planet Earth, yet we tend to take so much of what is here for granted. This applies not just to our fellow humans, but also to animals, minerals, vegetation, and the whole planet itself. We need to be grateful also for air, water, etc. These things are essential, not just for our survival, but for us to thrive. Honor and Respec...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   I thank, bless, and love the entire nature kingdom. Nature heals us and purifies our energies and thoughts. Researchers have found that people who are exposed to beautiful nature scenes are more generous, trusting, and helpful towards others. The whole natural kingdom feeds us, not just physically, but energetically and spirituall...

Written by Jude Bijou and Narrated by Marie T. Russell. Almost everyone procrastinates. We usually do it to avoid a task that's unpleasant or daunting. Some things are broad and require lots of time and effort, and may involve changing long-held behaviors or beliefs. Others are very specific one-time jobs. When procrastinating starts to interfere with our quality of life by causing us to feel worr...

Written by Carl Greer and Narrated by Marie T. Russell When your story isn’t working for you, when it seems to be influencing what you’re experiencing and causing you unhappiness, you can change it. And playing with metaphors can help you to do that. Maybe your current story is zapping you of energy, enthusiasm, and optimism because it’s a story like one of these: I’m getting nowhere fast. People...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   I am one with everything. We live on this planet as if we are the masters of it all and as if we are separate from "others" -- whether human, animal, vegetable, mineral. or spiritual. That is the greatest illusion. All is connected. Everything is composed of energy and energy has no boundaries. Our energy flows from us to and thro...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:   I thank Mother Earth for the love and sustenance she provides all of us. While water, fire, and air are indeed essential, without Earth we would literally have nothing to stand on. Mother Earth is our base, our foundation, our support. She feeds and nurtures us. As humans, we are well aware that we are birthed from our mother. Yet...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:  I acknowledge and give thanks for the air I breathe. While we can survive for 3 days without water, without air we cannot survive more than 3 minutes -- the exception being deep sea divers who train to extend their range. And, how often do we stop and give thanks for the air that we breathe? I would chance to say "not often". For a...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:  I bless water with love and gratitude. Water is an integral part of nature and it is essential to life. Over 50% of the human body is composed of water. But water is more than just a liquid that supports life in our cells. Dr. Masaru Emoto is a Japanese scientist who studied the consciousness of water. He discovered that water woul...

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration The focus for today is:  I choose to honor and respect all animals. As humans, we tend to think we are superior or more advanced than animals. We may think we are higher on the evolutionary scale than insects. But, are we? Bees have a whole social and communication system that we might learn from. So do ants. And what about the unconditional love we receiv...

Written and Narrated by Marie T. Russell. The word harmony has various meanings. It is used in music, in relationships, referring to inner peace, and as well as "working well together". In all of these definitions, the commonality is a blending of energies so that the whole is more pleasing, or more powerful, than the part. Harmony in Life and Health When our life and health are in perfect harmony...

Written by Evelyn C. Rysdyk and Narrated by Marie T. Russell. You can program your subconscious before you go to sleep, asking it to provide creative solutions through dreams. The subconscious can be creative when you are sleeping. The prolific inventor Thomas Edison never even napped without programming his sleep time. He is famously quoted as saying, “Never go to sleep without a request to your...
