What does it mean to you to feel awake and alive? Where is your focus? Even in the process of going about this day, your priorities and ways of perceiving the world are changing.  Step back for a moment and notice how you spend your time.  Are you focusing on what matters most to the heart and soul? As you shift focus and notice what passed by your radar before, you elevate consciousness.  This is all about recognizing thoughts and feelings without judgment. It all serves you.
