Assess

Whenever we feel ourselves being triggered, even a little bit, we are encouraged to assess ourselves inwardly, asking which of our values is needed RIGHT NOW to help bring us back on track.

For me, I seem to be triggered by lots of things which is why I’m on my quest this year for inner harmony…to face these trigger causes, understand them, and bring them into harmony.

Where I feel triggered the most is when I’m driving…especially when people driving pickup trucks tailgate my car because I’m not moving fast enough and they want me out of the way… (actually I don’t know why they are on my tail…I just assume that’s why). The bottom line is, though, it triggers my limiting belief about myself that “I’m not good enough” or “I’m not enough”. And in the case of driving “I’m not worthy to be driving on this road.” When I see this in writing, I can see how damaging these beliefs can be.

The value that I need in this case (and in probably most of these cases) is worthiness. Repeating the mantra “I am worthy” helps ease that trigger…and some deep breathing.

How about you? What value(s) would help bring you back on track when you feel triggered?

BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:

🏵️ Creating Mandalas — Awakening Inner Harmony

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day

Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.

Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.

Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits. Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it. As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
