Love and Compassion are Nature’s Medicines

by Carolyn Collin June 8, 2015

It is my belief love and compassion can make the sadness, anger, and coldness you’ve been feeling, perhaps have become accustomed to feeling — heal. At least, that is my hope for everyone.

Who really wins?

As human beings we appear to be hard wired
wanting to be right, wishing for things to be different, and fighting for circumstances to be fair. In my experience life rarely turns out this way.

I went through many years of torment due to a family court battle that never seemed to have an ending. These concepts of things needing to be right, different, fair had caused everyone involved so much pain, anger and confusion —— not a winning combo for anyone.

True Power Lays in Love And Compassion

I heard the aforementioned statement about a few years ago but never really understood it, until I started putting it into practice. I made a choice one day to set aside my desire for things to be right, different, fair by putting forth in every interaction the real tools that have true power–“Love and Compassion.”

As a result of exercising these tools, my circumstances started to shift and change for the better. Reactions from others softened. I became less burdened, less angry, less uptight. It was an act of surrender and trust for a greater yet to be.

Love Heals Our Wounds

I had prayed often hoping for a healing to occur with my broken family. Many times in church, on my knees, or in my sweat ceremonies I would ask source/spirit to come into my life and make things better. On my son’s 17th birthday, May 24, 2015 my prayer came true. My son’s Father and I sat with our grown young man and enjoyed a birthday dinner altogether. It was a rare moment for us but more importantly our son.

For the sake of creating anew, I sat back, listened and offered love and compassion. I left my ego out of it and didn’t fight the need to be right with what was being shared. On account of this, we were able to connect and get along. I was shown that love and compassion can truly be the medicine our souls have been longing for and that maintaining the idea that things need to be right, different and fair was not worth it in the end. If you want to experience more happiness, I urge you to start implementing these powerful tools in your life today.

May’s Monthly Intention

by Carolyn Collin May 1, 2016

This months intention is about expressing love, whether it be through a kind gesture to a stranger or showing love and appreciation for your friends and family. No act is too big or small. I’m sure you would agree that even the smallest expressions of care and concern go a long way, especially in todays electronic and social media over indulgence.

This card also speaks to those who are seeking love with a new partner. You are being reminded that you are cherished beyond measure. This is a time for harmonious and caring relationships to flourish.

Things that make you go mmm…

by Carolyn Collin April 14, 2019

Spring has finally arrived and I’m excited! (Though as I write this, Environment Canada has reported a 20-30cm snow fall warning for the city of Edmonton.) The going within and hibernation is over; newness abounds. I am certain this is my favourite season of the year. I sense the qualities of a cleansed mind, body and soul. There’s a tangible hunger in the air and a desire to experience life in a whole new way–such as adding more yum to life.

Suffice it to say, I’ve experienced my share of hardship and now I’m at a period in my life where all things favourable have begun to unearth. It really is up to you and I to take as much duty and care of our own existence. Yes sh*t happens that is outside our control but for the most part we do have a pretty big say. Therefore I propose we all make a long list of things that bring the mmm to our minds and act on it.

My list of mmm looks like this…reading a great book in a nice steaming hot bubble bath, candles lit and blues music playing in the foreground. Pillow talk with the one I’m connected to and care for deeply. Spontaneous trips to the mountains with limited luggage and my kayak in tow. Flat bread home made pizza, with pesto sauce, prosciutto, tomato, arugula and smoky cheese…mmmmm.

What wets your appetite? When do you make time for such things? Can you taste life in the now or do you need to wait until all the chores and to do’s are accomplished?

This Spring my intention is to experience more joy, take ample moments to pause or nap and dance like nobody’s watching (like I’ve done numerous times in my kitchen!) What will you decide to manufacture in the days, months to come? More yuck or more yum?
