We Always Have Help

Listening to another podcast the other day ("The Tim Ferris Show" this time), I was led again on an enlightening train of thought. Tony Robbins was on, and he shared a little meditative practice that helps him a lot. Think about some unfinished business you have, or something that may be worrying you or causing some stress. He said to put both hands over your heart and just focus on it. It probably helps to close your eyes, but I suppose you don't have to. Focus on your heart and "breathe into your heart," he said. Obviously we don't really breathe into our hearts, but it can sort of feel that way, so just forget science for a minute and "breathe into your heart." Relax, and just focus on your breathing. He said to "feel the strength of your heart." It's strong. As you do this, realize that your heart knows the answer to whatever may be troubling you. Realize what that answer is.

The answer I got is pretty general -- universal -- so I figured I'd share it. I realized that I always have help. I'm never alone. In fact, I have an abundance people -- family, friends, coworkers, etc. -- around me who would be willing to help with anything I might need. Not only that, but I believe that we have access to (and receive, usually without knowing it) a ton of help from the unseen world. We always have help if we're willing to ask for it.

As I thought about this, I was filled with confidence and peace, and I recognized the great strength we have when we work together. It's cliche, but it's true.
