Hi <<First Name>>, Happy Wednesday!
I spent an amazing day, this past weekend, visiting the Tonto Natural Bridge, in Payson, AZ, soaking in the incredible energy of Mother Nature's brilliance and perfection.
This hidden gem was a gift, as well as a natural energy infusion to my entire being; just breathing in the crisp, clean air, listening to the natural waterfall, climbing over the smooth and seemingly polished and petrified boulders, watching the extra large dragonflies land on the creek and feeling myself light up from within.
   
Then, we drove to and explored the Shoofly Indian Village at the Mogollon Rim and I experienced what I can only describe as a most spectacular, deafening, silence.
I know, quite a contradiction huh, yet, this was a silence that I felt in my soul. It vibrated with a familiarity that made me smile and feel like I had come home. :-)
So, I move into this next week with gratitude, as well as with the intention of bringing along this natural energy charge and re-calling the beautiful silence, in times when life steps in with her miracles, obstacles and challenges. :-)
Have a wonderful rest of the week and weekend!
