My Morning Pages




Every morning I give myself a gift. That gift is a half an hour of writing time. This time is mine. My kids and husband have learned that when mom is writing before 7am in her favorite chair, with the candles going - you give her: her space!


This is the time in my day that I treat as an amazing gift to me, from me. This writing habit has become a space for me to manifest anything that I desire in my life. It's one thing to tell the Universe what I want, but it is a whole nother' thing to put it on paper. It's like creating a witness for my desires.


Sometimes there is just garbled words that come out of my pen. Those are the days that I seek clarity on something. Usually by the third page I am writing about how awesome my life is and clarity is again mine.


Some mornings I end up with a full page of complaining! Once that is out I accept all of the negatives in my life and bless them so as to release that negative energy inside of me to create space for new awesome energy.


When I go back and read over my morning pages I am amazed at how my life plays out from those pages. Lots of times by writing down what I really want, I come to the conclusion that it's not what I really want and something new and even more important comes in for me! From this I create an awareness, and in turn create amazing experiences in my life.


A key factor to the success of my Morning Pages is confidentiality. I have communicated to my family that in order for me to write freely, I must know that only I will see these pages. So I feel confident leaving my binder beside my writing chair, knowing that only my eyes will see what is hidden in the pages. With that security - creativity soars.
