Maat E's Mental Health Message:
Reinvent don't resent! When we are hurt by people a possible outcome is to become resentful. This involves holding on to the angry (natural response) feelings. However, anger is not meant to last. As a feeling it is by nature fleeting. When anger hangs around it can become resentment. Staying with these negative emotions uses a lot of energy and takes important focus away from your well-being. Redirect resentful attention to self reinvention. Put all that focus on renewing yourself. Get in touch with the sweetest form of revenge...success. Don't let whatever it is break you, let it help make you into a wiser, smatter and more spiritually grounded being.
Have a blessed day today, full of life, health and vitality. Peace, Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
Stay disciplined. As a child my mother frequently would tell me..."Anything worth having is worth working for." I didn't like the phrase because it implied that I had to work at what I wanted even when I didn't feel like it. Over the years that phrase has rang true time and time again. No matter what the task staying disciplined will generally result in what we want. So despite those times when you are not "feeling like it" have faith that the strength and discipline is in you. The Creator will provide you with the will to stay disciplined or to get back on track when you fall off.
Have a blessed day full of life, health and vitality. Peace Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
Let God Do You! - Elder Wheeler
Many people have used the popular phrase, "Do you!" We all have a divine purpose and devoting to it is like doing you. A twist on the idea is to let God do you by staying committed to the divine purpose you've been given. Life will flow with so much wonder and joyous challenge. The obstacles we face will test our faith and make us stronger if we see it that way. Realign with what you were born to fulfill. The Creator will DO the rest. Have a blessed day. With much peace and more love. Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
Spiritual people have feelings too! No matter how enlightened, educated or wise we become, we will always have feelings and emotional reactions to things. Emotions are biological and psychological. They originate in both the body and the brain. Even if we wanted to stop them we could not. However, they can be changed and managed with lots of practice. We can also learn to lessen their impact. The secret is that we can control the thoughts and actions we associate with the feelings. As we become more spiritually connected we learn to recover more readily from mishaps. No matter who we are we will make errors in judgment and complicated or simple mistakes. Being spiritual is a process not a destination! The point is to be gentle and forgiving of ourselves when feelings get the best of us and to surround ourselves with supportive people who hold us spiritually accountable for our thoughts and action because the emotional reactions are bound to keep happening.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
Check in with your intuition before you take action. As easily as our emotions can become triggered for stress (even exciting stress) it is important t get in touch with our inner sense of knowing before we act. That inner knowledge is connected to our Divine wisdom. Relying on the wisdom rather than rational thinking is not always easy because many of us do not trust our Self (the inner Divine wisdom). We've answered to so many other people or worried about what they think for so long that we've given away our personal power. Reclaiming our strength comes with listening to one's Self. Slow down, pay attention and sense your intuition's messages.
Have a blessed day full of life, health and vitality.
Peace Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
There are no material distinctions in a spiritual world. Everything is connected. As much as we may perceive our neighbor as a different, the reality is we all are a part of the same source of energy. The conflicts and contradictions are lessons to help us strengthen our spirits and grow. At some point we all know this, but we either forget or have not remembered what we already know. The spiritual reality of life will reveal itself one struggle at a time. If we choose now to open our hearts just a little bit and experience the spiritual reality of love, we will feel connected. Make no distinctions stay connected in love.
With much peace, more love. Maat E.
