Z – Zen in Abundance

©KayLaN.Allen

When a large number of days and stresses seem to stack up against you, it would be easy to fold and give up. The weight that you bear in life is yours to carry, but you are not in it alone. This journey is constantly shifting and evolving; sometimes the goodness and peace that we seek are within reach if only we put our hearts and minds in a space to receive it.

Understanding the peace that you need will give you new thoughts on how you can have zen in abundance. There is no limit to the amount of peace or zen that you can have; you control your environment, so allow nothing else to tell you differently.

I couldn’t tell you of how many days, I have chosen to push myself beyond my limit to ensure that completed a task or helped someone else navigate through their challenges. We have to give ourselves the very thing that we challenge others to journey through. Zen through meditation is how we can begin to create a renewed mindset and limitless prosperity. We must regularly look inside ourselves to understanding what we need, love who we are, and grow into who we are called to be.

Life in abundance can be yours if you get centered and pay close attention to your worth, your strengths, and what you are capable of doing. Zen is freeing and it brings true peace and joy; who wouldn’t want that in abundance for their entire life?

Bible & Spiritual Connection
Psalm 143:5 & John 14:27
Recall what you have experienced in life and how heavy some situations were. Now, do you remember when you overcame that time? If you know that you came out of that space with the help of God, you equally know that you can become who you are called to be with His help. It’s not over yet. The peace you need and the life that you desire is living in your subconscious and you can have it all in the physical realm. Have a happy heart and fear not.

Be blessed and be at peace.

What Does It Mean To Overcome?

©KayLaN.Allen


You climb your mountain and miss a step, but catch yourself.
You drive your car in the rain and slide a bit, but you get back on track immediately.
You face your scars and remember that you are a beautiful product of your life experiences.


Overcoming means to:
Move beyond, gain control, or defeat something. This definition can be different for each person and in every situation. The key is to understand what it means to you.


A person can talk to you for hours about overcoming and not truly understand what it means to you.


The real definition is inside of yourself.


Maybe overcoming means taking back your power.
Maybe overcoming means getting out of a bad relationship for yourself and your family.
Maybe overcoming means that you learn to clearly see how the universe is working in your favor.
Maybe overcoming means that you step out of your comfort zone and into the realm that you are supposed to be in.  
Maybe overcoming means getting control of the chaos in your life.
-Whatever it means to you, it is up to you to look deeper into what it would mean to make that change, overcome that battle, or climb that new hill.


Understanding what it means to overcome is how you can prepare to do it.


You find meaning and value in life and your journey by taking the time to truly look inside of yourself and allow change and evolution to occur.


Challenge yourself to take a moment and write down what is truly bothering you. This is the beginning of facing what is bringing problems to your life. 


Job 8:7
“…Though your beginning was small, your latter will be great.” You may not be where you dream of being, but it is surely coming- it has been promised to you. The universe is in full-creation mode and is bringing opportunities your way that you did not know existed. God has a blessing and vision for your life. 


Proverbs 2:12-15
Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse, who have left the straight paths to walk in dark ways, who delight in doing wrong and rejoice in the perverseness of evil, whose paths are crooked and who are devious in their ways.”  Taking the time to do the work, writing it all down, facing the problem and understanding what it means to overcome your storm is the first step in developing a new area of wisdom.  This wisdom could be the key to your success or in finding true happiness within yourself. What would it mean to defeat the storm in your life?


Are you able to open the doors of promise and opportunity now? Do you still have some preparation to do? If you aren’t ready, that is okay for now…but you need to get ready. You need to stop just dealing with it and start preparing to change.


Now that you understand the basic meaning of overcoming, you are ready to learn to make it happen. Buckle up, it may be a bumpy ride.


Be blessed and be at peace.

***Health Spotlight***
Chickenpox can cause extreme problems for people of all ages.  The virus that it is linked to it, VZV, can spread via touching, breathing in particles, and possibly through droplets. Getting the vaccine is the best protection; you can still get chickenpox but the severity will be decreased, you will have fewer blisters and less of a fever. It is essential that you do your part to take care of yourself and your family. Calamine and colloidal oatmeal baths are a go-to to relieve itching, and acetaminophen over-the-counter may help reduce fever as well. Although there has been a decline in the number of people with a VZV virus over the past two decades, it is still affecting over 3 million people a year according to the CDC. Seek the care of a physician or any medical provider; there is affordable care available.
