I was I was blessed to spend the day yesterday with not only a very good friend but with some very inspirational people.
Enjoyed an awesome day this past week at #PowerOfSuccess! It was such a awesome, inspiring day!
Some of my absolute favs were…
John Gray, the author of Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus.
He spoke about how living in love, first with ourselves, our partner, family, friends and life in general is so important and crucial for living a happy life. How our hormones and stress affect every single relationship in our life. If you arent living in love, you are living in fear.
• Love truly makes the world go round. If you arent living in love you are living in fear. • Men and women balance each other. • How our hormones and stress affects our relationships. • When it gets tough, that’s not when you give up • Its OK to ask for help, people pay for counselling and it helps so many • Love makes the world go round • Understand our differences and support each other • Relationships are not 50/50… they are 100/100!

Molly Bloom, @immollybloom, with an incredible story and movie that is now on my to watch list!
Gary John Bishop – Author of Unfuck Yourself @garyjohnbishop who wrote #unfuckyourself about living an authentic life.
This can apply to us as individuals, parents, co-workers, friends etc… going right along with – It doesn’t have to be hard!
I can admit, I am a very futuristic thinker, its one of my top 5 strengths – actually its my top strength! Its an incredible strength to have. But I have found, being more in tune with myself, having this as my dominant trait can also add excess anxiety to my life, sometimes without me even realizing until I feel it heightened.
It doesn’t have to be hard – anything in life. There are however adjustments. In reading the article I mentioned above, one thing that came to mind was how when the kids were younger and we did everything for them, including picking out their clothes (to buy and wear). As our kids have gotten older, their personalities have shone through and we guide them, but we do not just buy things for that we do not know they would like/wear. We let them have some freedom – with guidelines – of what clothes to get/wear. If I wanted to have all the control and tell them no you are wearing this or that, it just overall for everyone would not be a good experience. A small example of control and life being hard.
There are moments I literally just say to myself, what is the next step. Renovating has helped me with this. This past weekend we got a lot accomplished outside which felt really amazing to get done. Then coming inside, I thought of all that we didn’t get done and I could feel myself getting anxious… because of the pure thought!
Our minds are SO powerful.
I then simply said to myself, ‘it’s not hard – one step at a time we will get there’, and instantly felt better. Life isn’t a race, life isn’t meant to be hard, its meant to flow with ease and grace. Even the tough times. Its meant to flow at your pace, on your time. Always in divine timing.
Gabby’s newest book arrived the other day ON launch day…the day before my husband and I celebrated 15 years married!!! Today is the day I am actually able to dive into this book and I couldn’t be more excited!
The first book I read of Gabby’s was “The Universe Has Your Back” last year. First time in years I read a complete book front to back… that was also life changing! You are either constantly growing or you are dying. Quite simple. Honor your truth and authenticity ➡️ own your life, however your cards have been dealt! So powerful and admirable! Let’s be real, everyone has faced challenges in our lives (if someone says they haven’t or their life is perfect… they are in denial!). Face the challenges, face the demons, stop the bitching and complaining. Rise up! Running (avoiding) will only magnify what you try to suppress! I am thankful for my journey as an individual and as both a wife and mom! When we all choose to live a more conscious, authentic, real life, those around us will either begin to rise up as well, or begin to fade away.
Celebrating 15 years married has been a very proud accomplishment for us! I used to be the person who thought you needed to portray this perfect, wonderful life. Um hello… as I mentioned above NO ONE is perfect. We have all had challenges, roadblocks, heartache and lows. Every single one of us. If you think you haven’t or that you are perfect or that you need to ‘do it all’… you’ve got work to do on YOU! The absolute only person we have control over, is ourselves. It is our job as individuals to rise ourselves up. To reach down, to the depths of what may feel like hell and figure our shit out. To live authentically, in truth. Stop bitching and complaining and start taking action on your own life. If you aren’t yet loving and living in truth, which um you will know if you are or aren’t, what is YOUR truth?!
In 15 years of marriage I have learned its SO healthy to admit defeat in the times you need to, to ask for help, to be ok with not being able to do it all – this was tough as we transitioned from individuals to a couple but then the biggest was when we transitioned to parents. To find a balance, that truly is ever changing. One day I might balance out my husband, the next day he may balance me out and moreso lately in our life we balance each other equally. As the children get older I feel I have given myself permission to spend more time (and money) on me. This has meant investing in personal coaching (totally worth it by the way), healthy lifestyle of healthy eating, taking my vitamins and supplements, drinking lots of water, reading and expanding my mind, honoring my body when I need rest and sleep, letting gossip die when it reaches me and just overall being grateful and positive and living authentically in truth.
We continue to grow and I am thankful for that. This past year has been incredible and continues to do so. As I have chosen to grow, my family has been a huge support AND they have grown with me. This has included facing some challenges to rise up themselves, but we have and are doing it as a family. I am SO incredibly proud of them and am excited to see where our journey takes us!
September has been a good month, filled with love, happiness, happy tears, growth and change. I’m excited to see what the rest of the year brings and many many more years to come…
Feeling so grateful this morning as I enjoy a laid back morning in bed, the rest of my household enjoys a sleepin and I… oil up and dive into some @GabbyBernstein words of wisdom and love! 🙌💞
When life gets “busy” its incredible the power in pausing, even if just for 5 minutes.
This time of year, although is the time of year I crave – the beautiful colours, warm days, cool nights, layers and cozy sweaters or blankets… lets be real for parents of young kids and teens. This time of year is also back to school, back to hockey, back to skating and whatever else is going on.
This time of year can feel overwhelming and slightly stressful, after having a fairly laid back, go with the flow summer.
Ive quite honestly been feeling the overwhelm and stress, albeit creeping in slightly, but its there and I knew it was there when literally the pain in my neck would not dissipate. Even after visiting the chiropractor a few times. I had to go deeper. I knew this after my last visit, when the neck crack that I was so eager to hear… did not happen.
My body, my soul craves calm, serene, peace, quiet, organization when life gets “busy”. This past weekend we honored our responsibilities to ‘get shit done at home’. Hey Im being real. As much as we wanted to be elsewhere to enjoy the gorgeous sunshine and warm weather, we knew the weekend spent home tending to our torn up backyard, having long slow mornings relaxing in bed (or the couch for the kids) was exactly what we had to do and my soul is beginning to feel the power of pause.
Saturday morning we legit laid in bed until 10am. Something we haven’t done in a very long time. I read… I READ! Not just one of my fav power and personal development books either. You know the kind you can literally jump in and out of when time permits, that no matter where you jump in and out you always find a juicy tidbit of information to welcome into your life or change your perspective even just the slightest, always rising, right! No this is a book I was given for my birthday, that when I looked at it I wanted to get into it, I wanted it to be a book that would take my mind away and expand. Its done just that.
Last night after work the first thing I did after having a quick catch up with the kids was retreat to my office to meditate and stretch out my back and neck. 20 minutes later after listening to a beautiful throat clearing chakra (to help with the neck pain) I could feel more renewed, the pain was legit lessening, like after being at the chiropractor, or using deep blue and massage. I slowed my mind and body down, allowed myself to rest and recharge. My husband and children respected that. I journaled before bed and released anything that I was “holding” onto. I welcome the unknown.
Renovating is challenging. I had someone comment to me not long ago, ‘then why? why not just build’. I know I would feel the same stress, whether we are living amongst it or not, its something that I find challenging BUT its also something that has brought us closer as a family and also pushed us to grow. I love our home, I love what we are creating in our home, the process is purely magic. The before, after incredible. Its teaching me a lot. Embrace, feel the emotions and continue moving forward. Hearing some mentors speaking of the fall equinox I pulled out my journal before bed, released anything on my heart, allowed myself to be open to receive and set my intentions, which also included a beautiful nights sleep.
This morning I woke with my first alarm. Realizing I had slept all night, completely. Im sure my diffuser blend of Petitgrain and Laurel Leaf also helped along with my kids blends of Brave, Stronger, Steady and Rescuer that I also applied before getting into bed. Rather than tossing and turning to try and get more sleep, I turned on my lamp and pulled out my book. The same book that I was given for my birthday and that I initially was having a hard time getting into as it went from 1941 to 2019 back and forth in the story line. However this morning I woke wondering what was going to come next for Ines and dove into the book. My 2nd alarm went off and I snoozed it. I was that into my book. This quarter is off to a great start, my only slight regret… when my first alarm went off at 5:55am I should have showered then, rather than diving into my book and then my morning being slightly delayed, which lets be honest has an effect on everyone within my house. Regardless if I felt rushed after my time reading, it felt SO good to dive in and expand my mind. A ritual that I appreciate and want to continue.
The power of pause from the “real” world. From any real life overwhelm or worry to allow myself to pause and simply enjoy the story line. Like life, sometimes we just need to pause, to not think too far ahead and just think of the next step. Thats what the power of pause helps me to do. Stop over thinking, stop thinking to far ahead, as someone who is a very strong futuristic, this can sometimes be taxing on me energetically.
It’s been a rare occasion since I’ve been taken down by a tension migraine… until last night!
Got home after work, did some running around and was DONE! I could feel it creeping on at work, did some stretches got my past tense out but after eating a fresh take out sandwich with deli meat it spiraled quickly to the point of no return.
These past almost 3 years I’ve been really careful watching my diet (foods I eat) however this summer began to get more lax about things and my health and body have been pretty quick to get my attention. We typically at home only buy the naturals deli meat, this sandwich although was quite good, was not the naturals meat. My body isn’t a fan of nitrates and I’m learning just how many things have to in them!
At first I was really pissed, I was planning on a long list of things to check off that just did not and were not going to happen. I had no choice but to surrender.
While laying in bed it hit me… I was letting life get ahead of me. With the end of summer, kids back in school, sports beginning, upcoming wedding, renos on the go, dirt piles everywhere in our back yard, and yes slightly dehydrated from the previous weekend celebrating my birthday with family and friends. It caught up to me. The “busyness” of life… lunch was what I could call the “straw that broke the camel’s back”…
When it feels like everything is piling up, the to-do list is so very long and feeling like shit just escalated everything for me and landed me in bed and on the couch for the entire evening and entire morning today.
Be graceful and patient. It’s a small amount of time that I clearly needed to be down. It’s not wasted time when your body needs healing.
Since shifting my lifestyle I feel I was better able to adjust and go with the flow even better. For those of you interested in how I’ve chosen to support my health without reaching for the advil or tylenol (which let me be honest before 2015 was my norm…almost every single day for the pain and discomfort I was in…) this is now my new norm and one my family supports! What I find very interesting is it’s never the same things I use to find relief, it truly depends on what’s going on in that moment, what was going on before and where I am. That’s also the beauty of these oils. Yes I had a migraine, are these oils “migraine” oils, no. But every single oil does something different within your body! Its freaking incredible actually!!! Oils are, in my own opinion, nothing like pharmaceuticals. They are gentle, they are like the human body (because they are plants) and they can honestly provide us with a lot of comfort when needed. But only if we as the human can also recognize that we need to shift, and for many that can be very different.
I’ve found it’s not one specific thing, it is whatever feels right or calls to me. Yes, that little voice that’s says … what about this?! That’s you trying to direct you a certain way, as long as you can determine the ego voice from the real you 🤣😉
Oils… I began using Past Tense and Deep Blue oil at work. They helped but I knew I was on the slippery slope downward already. When I got home I first used my foam roller on my back and neck to help stretch it out then I laid in the dark in my bed to help calm before getting into an Epsom salt hot bath with Cedarwood and Petitgrain. Both amazing oils to promote relaxation and calming. To be perfectly honest I was hurting and not thinking straight about what oils I should have grabbed, these were in my kids bathroom and worked.
After my bath I applied deep blue rub all over my shoulders and neck and then laid in bed.
This morning I woke up at just before 6am feeling good, drank a bunch more water (which I also did last night) and journaled, then began catching up on social… well didn’t that trigger things again. I got up and now thinking a bit clearer got Frankincense on my thumb and put to the top of my mouth, lavender down my jaw line and on the bridge of my nose and deep blue where I felt the tension. Then downed another large glass of water.
I laid back down and slept like a rock until 10am. That hasn’t happened in a long time! My husband made me a tea with 1 drop each of Turmeric, Copaiba and Frankincense in it. Yummy and super supportive to the brain!
Today we had a family event to attend so I knew I had to feel good and all of this helped me SO much! Before we left I filled up my big water bottle with 2 drops of Lemon to help cleanse and water! Yummy!!!
I am truly SO thankful for these natural supports for our body and mind! Grateful I can surrender and honor the time my body needs and also share to perhaps support someone else who experiences these same challenges. I also made sure to take my supplements at lunch today before we left to get in my vitamins, minerals, omegas and digestive enzymes! These have really helped shift my life and health in a very big way!
New Moon In Virgo tomorrow Aug 30 2019! Take some time this evening and tomorrow and release any negativity of what no longer serves you, allow space for growth, expand your love and compassion for others, dream and reach for the stars! Anything you put your mind to can come to fruition. Open your heart, balance your energy, speak your mind and be at peace, truly in peace. 🙏
“This Moon is for Changing our Ways. To act and live as if we care.
Lay down your catastrophic anxieties and use the magic in your midst. Be absorbed in the tiny tasks at hand. Take care of your body. Decongest your mind. Detoxify your space. Prepare your food. Tend whatever is within reach. Shift your habits. Look for the smallest fixes; they will lead to the largest change.”
“The solar system’s star reportedly represents how we “shine our light” into the world, the present moment, our yang or masculine archetype expression.
The Moon contrastly represents each of our inner worlds, relating to unconscious emotions, spiritual desires and dreams.
Some argue the Moon offers us the ability to learn from the past and creatively unlock and express our essence.
The New Moon is consequently considered to symbolise new beginnings.”
Ive personally found that the more in tune with myself I am, the more balance I can bring to my life. Lets face it, its up to us to bring the balance in, with kids, work, household duties, life etc we have to consciously make the choice to slow down and find the balance we seek!
Its always around mid August I am re-seeking balance from the relax of summer. Being away more than we ever are in the fall and winter, getting caught up with things at home that have been pushed aside for the time being.
The other night I had the opportunity for 2 hours completely alone at home. Well when I say alone I mean alone as a human ;) My fur and feather babies were with me, however we spent 1 1/2 hrs of this time in complete silence. It was incredible. It was exactly what my soul was craving.
And it wasn’t to just do nothing, I did partially “do nothing”, however I find it much more productive to say I was resetting my energy, which was very productive and key!
Last week I changed my internet start screen from a generic one which everyday showcased so much violence and negativity (news) to Daily OM. Like a breath of fresh air! Now when I open an internet browser for anything, I am welcomed with a peaceful image and beautiful daily inspiration that takes minutes to read.
Today’s, Making Choices from a Place of Balance hit home for me, especially this week! “It is important to make decisions from a place of balance, by taking a breath and checking in with heart and mind.” This reminded me of my Monday evening at home. How in just 2 hours I was able to tidy up the kitchen, get some laundry done, meditate and journal. It felt incredible. It felt like I had all the time in the world. Simply by slowing down from a “busy” mind into a balanced mindset. 💞
We all have experienced that little nudge feeling before in our lives. Many of us perhaps didn’t know it was our own self trying to get our own attention. That gut feeling, the little voice in our head, thinking of something and seeing it…
My why began as my children, I was doing it for them, making healthy choices for them. Well if I have learned anything from being a mom its that my children, by far, are my greatest teachers. They have taught me the greatest amount of compassion, understanding, patience, love, growth. Opportunity to rise up, make changes to be a better person and mom. As much as I do this for my kids, I do this for me.
Ive become much more in tune with my body over the past couple years. Not only feeling more in tune with my body also achieving living a much more authentic truth as well. Freeing from any past negative situation or experiences and really living my best life!
I have gained control of my health, also slightly lost control, regained and then one day it stuck. Suddenly after years of that voice telling me to just do it – make a healthy choice.
Step 1 – Making the choice – its all about the mindset
Step 2 – Making the shift – realistic and beneficial
Step 3 – Living the life – authentic and true
Its so easy to get into the rhythm of the everyday. Go, go go and perhaps missing out on key signs, signs that we don’t always recognize if we aren’t paying attention to ourselves closely. Almost becoming numb and just living the day to day.
Ive been learning to do this. Floating about in step 3, not exactly sure what step 4 is but going with the flow. The fear of the unknown has never been easy for me, its also helped me grow. The more authentic I am – who I am around, what I choose to do, the foods I eat, the places I go, being true to me and my word all plays an important part to become more in tune.
I am learning that my body has been talking to me, yet there were so many years I did not show it love. So many years that I was ignorant, made poor choices and completely took my health for granted.
Guess what, people change and so can our health.
I am optimistic that any health challenge I am faced with I will only come out stronger, more in tune with my body and soul and healthier. Any challenge is an opportunity to uplevel with purpose.
Choosing holistic health to support daily life. Investing in me with time. Understanding, patience and love.
Being authentically me.
Sometimes this comes as a gentle nudge, other times a life changing experience, either way if we are listening, we truly benefit from this life lesson. Only room for positivity, gratefulness and truth.
I am thankful for the nudges which have directed me to the life I am living and even lately the opportunity to once again uplevel my life and living.
Pay attention to yourself. The little messages you hear in your mind. Even something as simple as thinking… “do I really need this” or “its just one it wont hurt” and your body/mind is later screaming at you in various ways.
It really truly is the whole picture, not just “eating healthy”. I could just eat healthy and think Im doing good, it is good don’t get me wrong, but its so much more than that. Its the thoughts you think, the people you are around, the products used in the home and on the body. Its a shift in your lifestyle. Choosing to be a better person – to be the best person you can be and living authentically.
Life lessons can only be experienced, not taught. We are all the creator of our being, captain of our ship, architect of our life.
I want my kids to know their mom has always tried her best, has made some awesome choices and also some bad choices in life, but rose above, works hard yet has realized its better to work smarter. That any challenge I am faced with or we are faced with, we can over come and rise above. Change, challenges also mean strength. Whether that challenge is within ourselves, as a couple, for our children or as a family. Sometimes that little nudge, when listened to with compassion and love can be everything. <3
Moments and dates in life are important to me. Even ones that are filled with heart ache. Two years ago on June 23 we woke to our newly finished basement flooding with water! I am truly grateful that the damage was minimal – meaning it wasn’t the entire depth of the basement and was water not sewage – thank god!
However it was devastating and hit me very hard. So why remember this date? Because its where our family re-grew from. There are lots of moments in life that challenge us, sometimes to the point where we think there is no return, but we rise up to who we need to be and do what we need to do. Sometimes challenges hit us in life to wake us up, to shift the path we are on, to help someone else and when you are enthralled in the moment its even more challenging to look beyond or think ahead.
So there is an opportunity for growth. If anyone tells you that life is perfect, they are lying. Maybe they choose not to be vulnerable and keep their life private, that’s their personal choice. They could also choose not to focus on the negative and rather rise up to what is positive in their life. That is real. The reality is shit happens and how we choose to deal with it will help direct our new path in life, how we will grow from it!
2 years ago this became a real struggle for me. However much like the other challenges Ive faced in my life, I kept trucking through. I honored when I needed to rest and literally do nothing, I honored when my husband needed to do the same. I celebrate and remember today especially because we have literally come full circle and I am so proud of us – all of us – myself, my husband, both our children and our pets. I am proud of us of how we have banded together with understanding and love.
After we completed the basement in March 2017, we got right into doing the kitchen, dining and living room. When the basement flooded my husband had just taken down the plastic tents from removing the popcorn ceiling and just the weekend before, my husband finished installing all the flooring. Thankfully those steps were completed. I am so grateful for that. At the time the old kitchen was very minimal, we had no furniture – literally because we got rid of our old stuff from downstairs and moved he upstairs furniture downstairs – which made the reno’s easier on the main floor and then the basement flooded LOL.
It actually is funny. Seriously if I didn’t laugh I would cry – alot! We were literally starting over with most of our belongings in the basement, which also had more things due to the upstairs reno. It was devastating but then it hit me.
This was the 3rd home we moved to. Much like our previous two homes we knew we wanted to put our touch on it. However we had accumulated a lot of stuff over the years. I am a very sensitive and caring person, so if we or our children were given something I had a very challenging time letting it go. Not to the point of hoarding, however we had a lot of “stuff” that was needing to find a new home. Yes I would have preferred donating it or even having a garage sale, however this literally forced me to offer up the control. I literally had no control over this situation whatsoever. Which was very challenging for me. I was forced to give up all our “stuff” – even some of the sentimental things.
Our family learned how powerful it is to hold value in the moment and memories vs the “stuff” because the “stuff” can be taken from you just like that!
I am proud of us because we have literally come full circle from that day! The basement was completely re-done again and our main floor is all complete giving us the opportunity to now create our own master oasis!
Sometimes we don’t really know we are sabotaging our life until we feel it physically and emotionally. This may sound harsh when you are about to read how I sabotaged my life this week, however it is what it is and for me this is real.
This past weekend I indulged in black Tim Hortons coffee. I have not drank coffee in years,, let alone timmies which can make me vibrate! Granted I used to drink it all the time. It was available to me, so I thought why not Im being active this weekend it will “help me get things done”…
So in truth, its a life lesson. My sleep had been awful most of the week. The restless legs began Saturday night, thankfully my Balance and AromaTouch oils helped me to be able to get to sleep and actually sleep peacefully. However since Sunday night my body has been messed up and this mama has not been sleeping well!
Add in my negligence of topping up my thyroid roller bottle. Even as I write this I think to myself… It literally took 5 minutes to top the roller bottle up. Actually less than 5 min and get it on my neck. I received lots of signs this weekend that I was NEEDING it… I was freezing cold all the time, my throat became scratchy – almost like ‘hello pay attention to this area of your body’, my digestive system slowed and I just feel like BLAH!
The true kicker… I had my body at a point where I didn’t need my blend everyday. However I pushed my limits. So a combination of self sabotage has had me not sleeping great, feeling blah and just totally off. That morning I finally “got it” and refilled my thyroid blend.
Its so true that in life you can be trucking along, feeling great, going with the flow and miss a couple key factors which can have you side lined momentarily. As crappy as I do feel, lack of sleep and my thyroid blend, does that to me – I know this. I KNOW this… yet I allowed myself to do this to me.
Time to rise back up, get back on track with purpose. I got my thyroid blend on Wednesday morning and already the scratchiness was subsiding. I knew it was this when Ive been taking On Guard+ the past couple days and took some TriEase in the middle of the night – to help with the scratchiness. Nope what my body wanted and needed was my thyroid blend. Ok listening loud and clear now!
Much like my previous post the other day, one step forward. Monday we came one more step forward for our laundry mud room being complete. I am so eager to get it finished, but patience and allowing my body and mind the time it needs to rest – which its clearly forcing on me now!
To help me get on track that day, I pulled some cards. That morning I chose the 5 card spread…
Situation – Believe – “In order to succeed, we must first believe that we can” Nikos Kazantzakis Believe in yourself and know that you can create anything you wish, regardless of what anyone else thinks. Believe in your dreams and realize the potential of your own divine power. Trust your inner guidance – as it is directing you to a promising new truth, one that places you into alignment with spirit. I believe in me. I know that what sustains me is the power of cosmic consciousness. I am endowed with intelligent knowledge, intuition and absolute truth. “I believe in the wonders of life”
Challenge – Abundance – “Accumulate the wealth of wisdom acquired through God realization”. “He is wisest who seeks God. He is the most successful who has found God.” Paramahansa Yogananda . Abundance is measured by the extent to which your inner peace and mental control enable you to be happy in all circumstances. Bring peace into every moment of your life. What does Abundance feel like to me? I am one with Spirit. I am abundance.
Guidance – Beauty – “Your true nature is reflected from your soul” “When the mind is calm, how quickly, how smoothly, how beautifully you will perceive everything” Paramahansa Yogananda – Swan Spirit – See the inner truth within yourself and others regardless of outer appearances. Recognize your beauty inside and out. Identify and accept the loveliness found in every characteristic that makes up who you are, for only you possess them. Remember and celebrate the beauty that you are! “The beauty that radiates with me spreads throughout the universe.”
Intention – Acceptance – “Embrace and be at peace with everything in your life” – “The good or bad is not in the circumstance, but only in the mind of him that encounters it” James Allen . Spirit of Deer – I have come to remind you to be gentle with yourself. Love and accept the wholeness of who you are in this very moment – for you are beautiful! What if you could completely embrace every situation and every experience by knowing that you have created all of it for your own personal growth? Allow this transmission to transform all perceived obstacles into precious opportunities. Love every moment. Welcome the unexpected and dance with delight in this dream called life. “I embrace and accept everyone and myself. I think every situation in my life.”
Outcome – Adventure “ Living a life filled with wonder and excitement” – “The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams” Oprah Winfrey . This is your life. You have a golden opportunity, right here, right now to create it anyway you wish. Dare to dream big, by listening to the language of your heart. Open the eyes of your heart to see this wonderful world full of beauty, charm and adventure. You are living an archetypal story filled with emotional content, mystery, magic, contradiction and conflicts that seemingly appear as a paradox. Remember that you are the dreamer, dreaming this dream called life. Welcome the perfection of all that is and you will come to understand that all of life is nothing more than a passing phase. Come to understand that each phase is born out of the dream creation of Cosmic Consciousness and realize that you are here on earth to have fun. Feel the excitement and awe of life, instead of fear and doubt of not knowing the future. Let go of any attachments to outcomes and you will welcome the gifts being granted to you in each and every moment. Everything you receive from the material world is going to teach you something along the way to make you a healthier and happier being. Adventure is ot outside of you, but within you. The very basic core of your being as living vibrating spirit has an innate passion for adventure. Wake up in the morning and welcome every experience you receive as part of this ever-unfolding happening dream. Be excited about life, because in essence you are a radiant light-being here to express in this grand adventure called life. This is your moment to shine! “I welcome the magic and mystery of life”.
Wednesday I knew I had my BUTI Yoga class but to be completely honest I was thinking of any excuse I could think of… but I went, I felt great, oiled up all day and before bed and it was exactly what I needed! That night I slept great and woke up feeling amazing!
The other interesting piece of info is I recognized how the caffeine affected me, it’s also something that is advised to limit or avoid for empaths! I picked up a new book last weekend from the Mystic Crystal shop, The Empath’s Survival Guide by Judith Orloff MD is a wealth of information and I am just into the book in chapter 3!
What is interesting is I had also been lacking on my meditation practice. My husband was the one who suggested I do some meditating to help balance. I chose Gabby Bernstein’s Journal Meditation and it was awesome! Beautiful way to re-start and re-connect 💖!
