We all have perceptions of what life means. The real meaning of meditation correlates with our false perceptions of life. Shelly goes into what she believes meditation means and how if we learn to hold space for ourselves we will begin awakening and living our lives. Namaste Friends.

Life and The Real Meaning of Meditation

Hello Friends, Welcome to Shellys Stories, I believe stories will help bring us together when we are feeling so separate.  This book is based on a character created from my daughter and pieces of me when I was a child. I hope you can open your heart and enjoy. Namaste Friends! With love and light, Shelly Chapter 12: 14er's Juniper Bloom: Wishing Wands features a heart-centered, eight-year-old, aspiring writer with dyslexia and autism and the real obstacles she overcomes with her family. With a powerful message to bring acceptance, love, and self-compassion for where we are in life. Juniper journeys towards learning her self worth doesn't come from others. With many superpowers, a photographic memory, and listening with her heart helps her connect to the earth in her own way. She doesn't let names tell her who she is and what she can do. More than anything Juniper wants to go camping, only she makes a mistake and gets lost in the forest with her little brother. Nature doesn't care if you are “special” or not, mother nature will stop for nothing. Juniper is forced to discover a part of her she never knew she had. Here’s the story, I don’t know much about autism, only it’s called a spectrum and there are different ways it is in people. I think a spectrum is like a field of wildflowers. When you look across you can see all different shapes and colors, some smell good and other smell terrible. When you close your eyes you can feel how they feel. Some are bright and beautiful, and some hide in the shade. Some drink lots of water, others don't need much at all. Some are straight and some are curved, some are soft and some are prickly. The field is bigger than my eyes can see. Inside of the field thinking thoughts dont matter. What's inside of our hearts is what makes us special.
