Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration
The focus for today is: I live from the heart, one day and one step at a time.
The greatest change we need to envision, which will then lead to all others, is to start living from the heart. Let's drop all the reasons why we can't do this. Let's drop all the excuses why we can't get along with others and create a better world.
Let's start living from the heart, and all else will necessarily fall into place. When you love someone or something, you want the best for them, and you act accordingly.
So let's make our New Year's resolution, and our daily resolution, be that we live from the heart... even if it is sometimes difficult and hard on the ego. Let's choose to let our heart guide us to do and say the right thing, no matter the hesitation we may have for whatever reason. Let's decide to create in our own personal life, and then extend outwards, a reality where we live from the heart, one day at a time, one step at a time.

The Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards
The Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards: Spiritual Teachings of the Sioux
by Chief Archie Fire Lame Deer and Helene Sarkis.
This book and beautifully illustrated deck draw on the ancient Lakota ritual of healing and purification known as the sacred Inipi, or sweat lodge ceremony, which has existed in the Lakota culture for thousands of years.
The cards and accompanying book comprise a self-contained and highly original system that will help you harness creative energies to deal with issues that are of concern in your life. Used for self-discovery rather than divination, the cards gently guide you toward inner growth and self-knowledge in the time-honored tradition of the Lakota people.
Publisher: Destiny Books, an imprint of Inner Traditions Intl.
