Our human experience is an ever changing weave of perceptions, physical sensations, thoughts, and internal images. Each strand of sensory/cognitive experience contributes to the unique tapestry of our lives. But there’s another aspect of our experience that’s often overlooked. It’s overlooked because it’s not a “thing”—not an object or event. It’s closer than close: hidden in plain sight. It’s what we refer to as the Higher Self.
Each woman, and every mother, expresses womanhood and motherhood in an utterly unique way. Like wildflowers growing on a mountain meadow, no two are ever identical. There are, however, commonalities and shared experiences among women and mothers. In particular, there are powerful ways that we can embody and share the blessings of nourishment, love, beauty, and compassion.
A human life encompasses such a wide range of experience: joy and sadness; ease and agitation; tenderness and triumph; passion and quietude. So, what might it mean to live in continuous alignment with the sacred? Is it possible to see all life and every moment—even the most challenging ones—as sacred?
