There is nothing I like better than going for a walk or a bike ride in nature to inspire my spirit to open up to the invisible power of Mother nature! Nature is one powerful inspiration source for my music but also for contacting my inner self and evaluate if I’m a good friend to myself in the now… What am I thinking? Am I stressed? About what? Than I stop and I breathe, I become aware of my body, feel my heart and I invite the unconditional love to clean my soul and my cells and I rest in this feeling for a minute. Am I thinking in constructive manner of myself, others, life, things, money and so on… If not, I decide what I want to believe in and I make sure I feel my new resolution of being kind to myself, hopeful, patient, loving and understanding but also, realistic! Than I thank the universe for all the life and beauty that surround us all. I pray for you too, sending you hopeful thoughts of love and inner peace.
May you take some time to contact your inner potential of love and by doing so, become your best friend! xxx Marcomé
