Take pleasure in all that you are and all that you do.

You, the one who loves to wake up early, journal, and meditate.

You, the one who loves to sleep until noon, go to brunch, then get back in bed.

You, the one who’s manifested her every desire to date.

You, the one who’s relishing the in-between – all that she is learning and desiring.

Take pleasure in all that you are and all that you do.

When you take pleasure, the habitual behaviors that are not actually pleasurable fall away.

By taking pleasure, contrast is created.

We notice that some of the things we thought were pleasurable were really just programmed in us:

The happy hour that zaps your energy and dulls your focus. 

The extra coffee that leaves you high and then exhausted.

The constant socializing that drains your introverted soul.

Take pleasure in all that you are and all that you do…

… rather than wondering, constantly, if you should be doing something different, better, more.

Let your body soften.

Take pleasure.

Because we are not meant to suffer, and we are not meant to sit in endless personal development workshops.

We are here to take pleasure in our precious human experience, exactly as it is.

Letting it naturally evolve through bliss, expand through pain.

Letting it be, in stillness, exactly as it is.

Today, just take pleasure, and notice what falls away, and what amplifies.
