Create A Life In Balance By Engaging In Ceremony

Ceremony is connection and celebration

Ceremony is connection and celebration. It is the celebration of all of life and our interconnectedness to all of life. It is this connection that helps in achieving work life balance. In our hectic, fast-paced lives, we become engrossed in schedules, deadlines, and bottom line negating the natural rhythms of life. A life in balance flows with these natural rhythms.

We lose ourselves in societal scripting leaving us numb, medicated, and angry. For our sanity we need to retreat from the dull, agonizing clamor society calls progress to connect with life. Ceremony is the stepping out of the pattern of everyday life making a special time and place for celebration.

It is being in the moment and paying attention to the greatest attraction in a given space. In surrender we become a part of life. We do not control life; we are one with life. Ceremony allows us to experience this in every cell of our being.

We let go of beliefs that no longer serve us to reveal our passionate, creative, powerful self. Realization that we are responsible for our own life choices and our own happiness allow us to take flight. We understand that who we are defines our career, not vice versa. Ceremony is about taking back our power to make a difference in life.

It is a realization that all of our fears and doubts are illusions and that if we stay in the present moment we can step into them and shatter the hold they have on us. Achieving work life balance is all about embracing our connection to all of life.

A powerful, simple ceremony is to go out in nature and find a quiet spot with not a lot of traffic that resonates with you. Journal about what attracts your attention - a twisted tree trunk, a small pale flower, waves on the lake, a chirping bird. How is this a mirror of you or your life? Listen with your heart, not with your head. What do you feel? What does this moment teach you about balancing work and family life?
