I received this text one morning recently from my son:
'Black coffee binds us...not a cup of coffee that you're not thought of.'
What my son could not have known that day is that his text reached me while I was in the middle of a mental funk which felt like I was treading water in a pool filled with tar.
And just like the pool shock I use every summer, that text shifted my energy immediately away from self by reminding me of my own influence, impact, and purpose. The pool water was beginning to clear.
As I visualized him sipping black coffee and manifesting me into his thoughts those moments, I began to think about those people who I manifest in the course of my day that have the potential to energize and shift my thinking when I might need it most.
So, I created what I call my 'Binding List' - those simple parts of a typical day that bind me to people of positive influence in my life I never want to disconnect from. Sipping black coffee, smelling pine scented floor cleaner, the pajama drawer, and the sound of an egg frying all made my list and serve as 'binds' to people whom I love and have valued in my life.
I was struck by how the simple act of creating this list further shifted my energy out of the mental 'tar' and into a crystal clear pool of thought.
Consider making your own Binding List today. You may be very surprised at what an energetically shifting exercise it will be.
One final thought: Try not to EVER lose sight of the fact that YOU are most certainly on someone else's Binding List.
At this moment, someone is doing something as simple as enjoying a cup of black coffee as they manifest your influence and impact in a grateful way.
If I could send you a text right now, here's what it would say to help get you started:
