Living "In Spirit"

According to Wayne Dyer from "Inspiration: Your Ultimate Calling" these daily practices will help you move toward Spirit in your thoughts and actioms:

1. Commit to at least one daily experience where you share something of yourself with no expectation of being acknowledged or thanked. For example, before Dyer begins his daily routine of exercise, meditation, or writing, he goes to his desk and chooses his gift for that day. Sometimes it’s just a phone call to a stranger who’s written to him, or perhaps I order flowers or send a book or present to someone who has helped him. It doesn’t matter if this activity is big or small—it’s a way to begin the day in-Spirit.

2. Become conscious of all thoughts that aren’t aligned with your Source. The moment you catch yourself excluding someone or having a judgmental thought, say the words “in-Spirit” to yourself. Then make a silent effort to shift that thought to match up with Source energy.

3. In the morning before you’re fully awake, and again as you’re going to sleep, take one or two minutes of what he calls “quiet time with God.” Be in a state of appreciation and say aloud, “I want to feel good.”

4. Remind yourself of this statement: My life is bigger than I am. Print it out and post it strategically in your home, car, or workplace. The “I” is your ego identification. Your life is Spirit flowing through you unhindered by ego—it’s what you showed up here to actualize—and is infinite. The “I” that identifies you is a fleeting snippet.

5. Dedicate your life to something that reflects an awareness of your Divinity. You are greatness personified, a resident genius, and a creative master—regardless of anyone’s opinion. Make a silent dedication to encourage and express your Divine nature.
