The challenge and importance of cultivating and maintaining wholesome states of mind.

In all of us there is a mix of wholesome and unwholesome energies. Let’s be mindful of what energy we are feeding, and putting out into the world and directing at ourselves. Let’s leave a legacy of goodwill in our wake.

On a 1 to 10 scale, monitoring your energy while orienting toward the 4 to 6 range.

We are social creatures. And in our connection and communing with others, an energy field is created–for the better or for the worse. A concert, a protest, a parade, a political rally all create a collective energetic force field with its own particular tone or flavor. Know what collective you wish to be a part of. See which ones strengthen and brighten the heart in times of difficulty.

Right Effort orients us in the direction of well-being and peace of mind.

The first way is to assess for balance.        Is energy balanced in the sweet spot of 4-6 on a 1-10 scale?  The second way asks,        Is energy being used to let go of the unwholesome, or to not invite the unwholesome        around?        AND       Is energy being used to keep the wholesome around, or to invite the wholesome around?
