Open letter to my best friends new man

Some how, those days, that pain, scarred over. The mark has been made, but the initial rage of the pain has subsided.
Somewhere in there, she met you.

Awareness first.

Here are five ideas to help you strengthen your ability to be aware of what’s going on around you, and therefore react appropriately and choose your perspective in a way that serves a better version of you, and your life…

Dear Sweet thang…

You are not alone. I see you. I feel you.

Lessons from 2016, Hopes for 2017

I think that when we release and let go of something from our past, we energetically create space for something new to come in. When we look at our year, and let go of the experiences that moved or rocked us, all awhile keeping the lesson it taught us, we can propel ourselves into more life, more excitement, more love.

Leaving the past in the past

I’ve been thinking a lot about forgiveness and “moving on” lately. About keeping the past in the past. I think…

My love affair with nature

Isn’t it something, that the heart chakra is associated with the color green, and where I feel my heart always finds home, is also in the colour green… Coincidence? I think not.

What happened here?

“There is this moment when every warrior woman looks at herself in the mirror and says: “what happened? Where am I??? Who am I?? OH HELL NO.”

New year ahead – what do you need to let go of?

In a few days, 2016 will be upon us. There is a lot of excitement and liveliness that surrounds…

2015 Twelve Days of Christmas Kindness: PART THREE

The last of the Twelve Days are here! I have to admit, it gets harder ever year to be creative.…

2015 Twelve Days of Christmas Kindness, PART TWO.

Here is part two of three for the 12 Days of Christmas Kindness… I hope these ideas are inspiring you to get out and try your own Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) this holiday season!

Part one: Twelve Days of Christmas Kindness 2015

I don’t share this here to brag about what I have done or try to shine some egotistical light on myself as being holier than thou. I post these not for attention, but to encourage others to get involved. To inspire them and to get their heart growing and their creative juices flowing. That’s it, that’s all.

2015: Twelve Days of Christmas Kindness

Oh, it’s that time of year again! My annual Twelve Days of Christmas Kindness. Random Acts of Kindness (RAKs) are…

Self love… just do it.

Most of the objections to self-love come from misconceptions of what love is…

The Already Principle.

When you start living and believing that you are enough right this moment, life will start unfolding in ways that supports that. When you start living and believing that you are loved, right this moment, life will continue to unfold in ways that makes this truer and truer for you.

Gratitude. A way of living.

…we are in constant dialogue with life. Whether we understand it, believe it or realize it. Our thoughts and words matter, and will be reflected back to us. Like the way a mirror reflects to us our image. What we choose to say and think, we will see more of.

Forgiveness…. a few words.

Until you forgive, you will keep giving your future to the past.

Say YES to life.

“There is a still small voice in each of us that is our real voice… the more willing we are…

Choosing your thoughts… Just do it.

Not everything is going to be in your control to change or manipulate. But how you think about that particular situation is always going to be in your control. So why not control it to be in your favor, in a way that will help you feel better, feel less stress, judgmental or hateful?

Getting in front of the mirror. Cue the scary music

“This practice is not about making yourself lovable; you already are lovable… It is not about improving yourself; it is about accepting yourself. It is not about changing yourself; it is about changing your mind about yourself. And it is not about reinventing yourself; it is about being even more of the real you.”

Video: “What I believe.” This is a gooder.

Here is a wonderful video by Brendon Burchard that really spoke to me today… This was a message I needed to hear. Check it out for yourself and see how if it rocks your socks off, like it did mine.

Going after your dreams… to begin or not to begin. To be helped or not be helped?

When we have a dream, we need to share our idea out loud with others. Not only because it makes us accountable to begin the process and try, but also because it makes us helpable. Who can lend you a helping hand, if they don’t even know you might need it?

Sharing your message

Of all the amazing leaders in history – MLK, Gandhi, Mother Teresa, all the names that stand out – do you believe any of them would have had the success they did creating change and encouraging peace by following a path that was heavily infused with fear? I don’t believe they would have. A less fearful and more loving path seems to create a stronger movement and change that is substantial and permanent.
