Maat E's Mental Health Message:
Keep it real! If that means something other than focusing on the spiritual reality of our existence, then keeping it real means missing our true reality. What's real is our divine essence, that is the beauty that exists in all of us and not the external and material things we often think define who we are. Being real means loving that inner beauty in everyone we meet. Distinguish what is real from what is not. Anything other than our divine essence is temporary and limited by who we appear to be.
Life, health & vitality. Peace, Maat E.

Ma'at E's Mental Health Message:
If we could see with our hearts we would all have twenty-twenty vision. Relating to the world and the people in it from a loving perspective is the nature of our true reality. The source of it all is our spirit and life is all about love. Living from that place in the heart provides tremendous clarity in times of strife and the ability to restore ones's sense of peace. Express love to the people in your life everday. Remember, we are not promised to see another day.
Much peace, more love.
Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
"Distinguish what is real from unreal."
The essence of reality is spiritual and as this ancient principle implies our job is to discern the spiritual nature of all things. The ability to see from a spiritual verse material perspective is one we are born with, but over time it is often forgotten. Regaining a spiritual perspective of reality happens over time and with practice. First we must learn how to access our own spiritual essence and then practice experiencing it with others. The key is that everyone and every thing is spiritual manifesting materially. Our material existence helps us to grasp and manage the magnitude of our spiritual existence. Until we are ready or have appropriate support or guidance many of us will remain lost in an unreal material existence. Seek to know reality, your spirituality. Ask your sense of a higher power for more spiritual perspective and it will eventually come to you.

Have a blessed day. Peace, Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
We are better served trying to forgive ourselves than asking for forgiveness from someone else. It would be great to know that after we hurt someone or did something wrong we are forgiven. Forgiveness is a process not an event. It has to develop internally long before the words, "I forgive you," come out. Learning from our errors to avoid the same mistake or act is really where healing and behavior change take place. Start the healing process by forgiving yourself then changing the behavior. Have a blessed day. Peace, Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
Cleaning out the debris In a physical wound or the hurt from an emotional wound can be painful, but until we start that process the healing cannot begin. If you have ever done something wrong to another person or been the recipient of ill will then you know healing from it can be painful and take time. As much as we try to go around it there is no bypassing the pain. Moreover, if you are the one who has done wrong or caused pain the burden on you will be extra heavy. Fortunately, the burdens will lift if we ask for help and not carry the weight on our own.
Have a blessed day.
Peace, Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
If you messed, get up! Doing wrong when we know the difference from right happens. When we recognize we've done wrong, it is not the time to beat up on ourselves or anyone else for that matter. Keep that head up, brush the shoulder off, own the issue and let it go. This is easier said than done, but it is doable. Despite how much we judge ourselves, our Higher Power is still loving and forgiving us. If we need to go out and do something to right the wrong that is fine. More important than taking action is having understanding and feeling forgivenees for ourselves and others.
Peace, Maat E.

Maat E's Mental Health Message:
Face yourself if you disgrace your Self! We all do wrong at times. Making mistakes and sin are a part of our human nature and experience. Often a mistake is more like a choice. We did something we know just ain't right. It happens, often. With that being the case we could also say that we often have opportunities to accept that we've made a mistake/choice and then love and forgive ourselves. We have lots of chances to distinguish right from wrong and to move toward reconnecting with what is just and right for the greater good. We can always work on changing our actions and forgiving ourselves if we are not doing right. The Creator loves us anyway. Peace & God Bless. Maat E.
