There's a wonderful energy and rhythm that comes from someone who decides to become more connected to his or her essential core, or spiritual center. It lifts them beyond the deadened feelings of inertia toward the joyful experience of being fully engaged with life. The pathway of greater contribution follows quite naturally.

One ANE member describes her experience: "First, candidly, ANE was the permission I needed to be more spiritual in my job. I had never fully realized this before. Then, I simply picked one of the tools (it was a prayer card) and it has transformed things. I feel more trust. Plus I now focus on getting to the greater good much more often."

This week, give yourself permission. Put something into practice that makes a deeper connection for you.

"I will be part of something that truly matters."
