Wednesday, May 01, 2013 Crystal Corner – Sodalite
Sodalite is a beautiful blue stone, similar in color to lapis, that is swirled with creamy veins and flecks. It can also be found in other colors, but is predominantly seen in a rich, deep blue. Because of this, sodalite is usually associated with the blue throat chakra and the thyroid gland, making it a great stone to wear as a necklace. It is said to help with communication, supporting the vocal cords and giving the wearer confidence when speaking. As a thyroid balancer, it is a good to wear sodalite when you need to manage your weight or energy levels.
Sodalite is one of the most important stones for overall well-being, promoting inner peace and bringing harmony to the conscious and subconscious minds. It’s known to have a calming effect on the mind and would be good to hold or wear in the case of anxiety or panic attacks. It can also assist those who are oversensitive or reactive by clearing away unhealthy mental patterns and allowing rational thinking to replace emotional responses. Marydale says:
Over the years I have found sodalite to be a workhorse when working with energetics. It seems to readily absorb impurities from the body, mind and emotions. Often I marvel at how the color will actually become darker the longer it is held. As a result, I like to use the stone at times when the need arises to release toxicity, imbalance, impurities, and the like. Give it a try!

Wherever you are in your journey, make your personal happiness a priority always. We humans thrive on happiness. Plus, happiness is contagious and quickly finds its way from one person to another, igniting a more positive energy exchange that often leads to healthier living for all. It’s simple – get happy, stay happy. It’s at the root of your True Nature.

Liberation comes with our tenacious desire to let go and allow Spirit to rush in and partner with us. So much easier than going it alone and trying, single-handedly, to figure it all out.
Monday, Apr 29, 2013 Marydale’s Thought for the Day – 4/29/13
Life constantly offers us choices, options for the development of our highest good, experiences that push us, stretch us, challenge us to get it right, whatever that ends up being. Often we risk losing the opportunity for growth by choosing to play it safe, comfortable, predictable. Take courage and discover yourself in the process.

Be patient with yourself and know that all you have to contend with is this day, this hour, this minute, this breath. And little by little you will not only gain a sense of confidence in your life, you will also create lots of confidence in your heart and recognize that being good to yourself pays great dividends. You’re the only one in your body…be good to you – in every way – every day.

Life evaporates before our very eyes so quickly that it seems absolutely impossible to wake one day, look in the mirror and see a much older version of who you once were. Yet the internal flame seems to be just as bright and strong as ever as we keep on loving, sharing and serving our way through this amazing adventure called life. How sweet it is.

The universe abhors a vacuum. If your mind, your heart, your body, your environment…your very life are jammed with too much stuff, stop the madness! Get off the runaway train and create space in all parts of who you are. Make space so Spirit can flow into you, through you and assist you in creating fulfillment and great joy. Your ultimate health and happiness depends on it. Lighten up.

When we partner with God we raise the odds in making decisions that ultimately promote our highest good here on Earth. Why struggle on your own when you have the most precise, internal GPS ever created? Use it and excel in all you do.
Wednesday, Apr 24, 2013 Marydale’s Thought for the Day – 4/24/13
When you know in your heart that you have done everything that you can do in a given situation, then you must have enough faith to let go. All of creation has its own rhythm which must be respected and honored no matter how badly we want to manipulate and force the process. All that will be accomplished by this naive insistence is to ruin what could have become perfect in its own timing without your interference. Breathe and have faith. Step back and see the broader perspective.
Tuesday, Apr 23, 2013 Marydale’s Thought for the Day – 4/23/13
Make a point to learn something new every day, for a natural part of the human psyche hungers for expansion, to push the boundaries, to test our abilities and limits. Otherwise, you are at risk of boredom or, worse, loneliness, both of which can cause depression, anxiety and premature aging. Get creative and take courage to engage in life fully today, tomorrow – every day. It truly is a banquet. Enjoy every minute to its fullest. Believe in yourself. I sure do, believe in YOU, that is.
