Soul is life

The following reading is taken from The Soul’s Companion, a book of daily meditations written by Tian Dayton.

Soul is life. It is the energy that vivifies and animates. It is where all of me begins. When I take time in the quiet of my day to experience soul, I return to my own origins. I go within for nourishment and self care. When I am stressed out or confused, it may just be that I am not structuring enough quiet time into my in my life, time to be refurbished through the silence of soul. Soul reveals itself to me in stillness. If I wish to know my own soul, I must give myself daily quiet time, to relax and just be. Without this quiet time soul has no opportunity to emerge into my day. It is constantly kept deep beneath the surface, thwarted in its expression and expansion by business and preoccupation. Soul expression comes when I sense its presence, when I am still enough to allow it to come forth. Today I will remember to remember this truth.

Soul gives me movement and life

For the soul is the beginning of all things.

It is the soul that lends all things movement.

Plotinus
