Hello Reader,

Why You Matter, For Real This Time...Alchemy is Calling!

We think we’re taking care of our responsibilities — the kids, the clients, the partner, the job. Yet the thing we most want for ourselves — the real work, the inner work, the work that comes from our spirit — that’s the thing that keeps getting moved down the to-do list.

The thing that people think is hard about Alchemy — until you start doing it — is that it requires us to put ourselves first. And yet, most of us were taught that putting everyone else’s needs first is the right thing to do.

Want to have time for: Daily meditation, spending time in nature, regular movement, eating well, doing something creative, taking that class we’re curious about… it’s different for everyone, but it’s ALL about is calling YOU.

Alchemy is the practice of becoming more fully yourself — finding the thing that makes you want to jump out of bed in the morning just to be with you.

Walking through that door is about asking better questions of yourself:

• Who am I?
• What do I really, really want?
• And how do I align with what I really want?

From the perspective of fulfilling all your obligations, it seems like there is never a good time to start putting yourself first. But in Daoist Alchemy, we recognize there is never a good time to NOT put yourself first. Every day of your life is yours and yours alone. There is only now — this one, and the next one — to do something that gives your Spirit a sense of satisfaction. It’s like there’s a door you’ve been waiting to walk through for a long time, but you keep making sure everyone else is okay before you do.

What if this IS your moment? ... to be continued (tomorrow).

With open hearts ♥️,

Leta
