It’s all about seeing the joy even in the simpli It’s all about seeing the joy even in the simplist of things. Every day is full of tiny moments of joy. For me, joy can be found in bedtime snuggles with my toddler or a stroll through Target without kids. A cup of coffee, pulling cards or a quick 5 minute dance party to my favorites songs. Can you see the joy around you? To do so you need to be present and open to seeing and experiencing the joy. Most people are either moving to fast to notice the moments or have their attention focused outward to what they perceive as lacking in their life. However when we stop for a minute, take a breath and remember that we AMAZING beings and that love and joy are the truth of our being then we can start to shift. Start by thinking of one simple pleasure that brings you joy. That sparks an expansive feeling inside of you. Then tell me below in the comments what that is. #youaremagic #spiritualandstylish #createalifeyoulove #embraceyourmagic #spiritualawakening #magicmotherhood #sacredfeminine #manifestyourdreams #divinefemininerising #makelifesacred #liveonpurpose #manifestmagic #elementsofbecoming #awakenedwoman #spiritualinspiration #youarethelight #innerwork #innerjourney #listentoyoursoul #femininewisdom #spiritualtruth #sacredsisterhood #soulpurpose #femininemagic
Everyone has a favorite song but do you have a per Everyone has a favorite song but do you have a personal anthem? Maybe an entire playlist that gets you going? Oprah always says everyone should have a “pump you up” song you can sing loud when you need it. Do you want to hear what my go to song is? Good Feeling by Flo Rida. It may not be the newest but every time it comes on I just have to get up and dance it out. You have to tell me what your anthem is! What song do you blast when you need a pick-me-up? If you’re looking for some fun pump me up music I am sharing some of my favorites in this months newsletter.

Are you a liar? You don't mean to and might not r Are you a liar? You don't mean to and might not realize you're doing it, but you might be telling yourself lies that are holding you back and even sabotaging your growth and success. There are so many of them but the ones I hear most often from women I know or see posted online are, "It's too risky." "I'm not smart/pretty/wealthy/thin/good enough." “What will people say about me?” "I don't have enough time." “It doesn’t matter anyway, no one cares what I think/feel/have to say” Want to get past them? First you have to recognize that these thoughts aren’t you’re own. They are societal/patriarchal conditioning to make us feel small. Making us feel like we need things or outside approval BEFORE we can live the life we want or go after things we want. Once we recognize that these thoughts aren’t you and you aren’t your thoughts you need to start acknowledging them as they come. Only once things are brought to the light can we see and work on them. Thank the thought when it happens but tell those thoughts that you okay and that you don’t need that thought any longer. Third start to say affirmations each day which will help to shift you’re mindset. Pinterest has tons of affirmations, and is one of my go to’s. Lastly take a leap. Maybe a small leap at first but just do the dang thing. Objects in motion stay in motion but objects that are still remain still (physics y’all) and if you feel like you need a sturdy hand to lean on or guide you find a circle of people. They are out there. I promise you! There are other people that will lift you up and support you. That will cheer you on. Like Me!! I’ve been there and am always here to hold space for anyone who needs it. So grab your coffee, or tea or kombucha and just do it. #motheryourself #innerselfcare #selfcareformoms #spiritualandstylish #createalifeyoulove #embraceyourmagic #spiritualawakening #magicmotherhood #sacredfeminine #manifestyourdreams #divinefemininerising #makelifesacred #elementsofbecoming #coffeandconfidence #downwiththepatriarchy #positiveaffirmations

A real life game changer. That is what mediation h A real life game changer. That is what mediation has been. It has made the single biggest impact on my life and I truly believe that it can have that same impact for others. But first let me say, there is NO RIGHT WAY to meditate. You do not need to sit, cross legged for 30 minutes, not moving and not thinking. If you want to sit for 30 minutes, or even an hour go ahead but if not then just start with 5 minutes. Having 5 minutes to slow down, center yourself and just BE , can be way more transformative than stressing over trying to find that “perfect” 30 minutes in your day. Unpopular opinion but I believe that your relationship with yourself is the most important one you will ever have. My word this year is BEING and mediation allows us to just BE with ourself. It helps to restore my energy, to fill my cup up that I can then pour into the cups of those around me If you’re worried about you’re mind running, you can try doing a guided visualization or can use a mantra (which you say over and over) to help focus your mind. It’s less about emptying your mind and more about quietly yourself so that you can connect with your heart, your soul, and even god. I love also meditating to music. If you’re not sure where to start Spotify has a ton of amazing playlist that you can choose from. The more you do it the more of an impact you’ll see. So consider this your PERMISSION SLIP to take 5 minutes to sit, or lay down and just BE. If this resonates with you or you have any questions about meditation 🧘‍♀️ leave a comment below!!

Be honest. Tell me how you really feel when you he Be honest. Tell me how you really feel when you hear the words “goal setting.” I haven’t always been a huge fan of setting goals but this is what I’ve learned. If there I something you’ve identified, something that you really want to go after, you just have to take action. No matter how small or imperfect that action is, just do something. A lot of us deem ourselves failures when we don’t reach some huge, lofty goals we’ve set for ourselves but the truth is, any steps we’ve taken towards our goals should be celebrated! So karate chop those big goals into bite-sized nuggets and give yourself a gold star (or a Target run!) when you tackle them. I would love to hear about a goal you’re working towards! #spiritualandstylish #createalifeyoulove #goalgetter #embraceyourmagic #spiritualawakening #manifestyourdreams #makelifesacred #liveonpurpose #manifestmagic #elementsofbecoming #awakenedwoman #youarethelight #innerwork #innerjourney #listentoyoursoul #femininewisdom #femininemagic #manifestyourlife
