Who Are You?

It’s almost too easy to loose your true self. Who you really are. In a time when people are most connected, so many are actually disconnected.

Relationships we “have” online begin taking over parts of our life where we should be expanding, naturally, outward into the world and most importantly inward to ourselves.

The year began with such beautiful energy. I have however felt like my energy has been slightly stifled the past couple weeks.

I’ve pulled inward, pushed the outside world to a distance. Feel like I’ve for too long, allowed the outside world to influence and it wasn’t always in a positive way. Focusing on people who, really in the big picture, do not matter in my day to day life. Truth be told, the biggest part of this meant pulling back from social media. Focusing on ME and not what everyone else is doing. Limiting social has felt freeing. Not that I don’t care about the people I follow… but really, my life and my mental health is so much more important. Far too often it’s simple to get sucked in, when really what we need to focus on is our own life.

Yesterday morning I woke up naturally, actually at my normal time also! As much as I could have went back to sleep, I stayed up. I poured into me. I gave myself permission to slow. My brain has been quite active these past couple months. I have found when this happens I allow myself to get overwhelmed far too quickly, until I become conscious of my thoughts and actions! It’s taken me so much less time to shift, thankfully!

I started with a Turmeric tea in bed (coffee for the husband) and a blend in the diffuser. I selected the oils based on my intuition, trust in yourself and you will always be lead to the truth!

  • Ginger – The Oil of Empowerment
  • Geranium – The Oil of Love & Trust
  • Ylang Ylang – The Oil of the Inner Child
  • Frankincense – The Oil of Truth
  • Green Mandarin – The Oil of Pure Potential


Many of these I know their emotional uses, like Frank, Ylang Ylang, Geranium because they are well used 😉. The others… how fitting for this weekend! 💕

I appreciate my daily greatness journal. It provides me a beautiful start and finish to my day. I hadn’t meditated in a while so that was my next course of action. Helen Murray, who a couple years ago I did personal coaching with, has a beautiful Peace, Grace and Prosperity Meditation on her website as a free download. Go have a listen, it is like magic to calm and clear the mind! Helen has a beautiful way of speaking and beautiful energy about her.

This morning, this was the SourceMessage on Instagram. An account I feel very aligned with! Cheers to a beautiful day, filling myself up! 😘
