    #MondayMantra: Dare to Risk – Positive Energy Shift

    September 26, 2016 - By 

    Do you realize that you have the power to change your life? Yes- you totally do! You do not have to stay stuck in negativity.  You can create a powerful mindset shift that will lead you to a more positive, powerful, and joyful life. Whenever fear and doubt start clouding your thoughts and drawing you down into a dark place mentally, emotionally, or spiritually, there is no better time to dare to reach out.  Whether you prefer prayer, meditation, EFT/tapping, or talk therapy with a professional therapist- you have access to a universe filled with positive energy.  Tapping into that…

    #FridayFeels: Rise Above

    September 23, 2016 - By 

    Yesterday I had the honor of being interviewed* for the new Do It Scared podcast. The premise of the show, hosted by Danielle Schnakenberg and Liza Wilde, is to showcase all of the scary shit we choose to do in our lives; stuff that makes us feel alive, vulnerable, powerful- stuff that pushes us to become better versions of ourselves. As I was preparing for what I wanted to talk about, I was frankly blown away by all of the (not literal) fires I’ve jumped into over the years.  I was struck by how much I’ve changed and grown and…

    That Was Delicious, But Now My Gut Hates Me

    September 20, 2016 - By 

    Hello Loves! After a wonderful long weekend in New Orleans eating ALL the delicious things (and more than a few adult beverages) my body is BEGGING me for a detox & reset. As you might know, I am about halfway through my 30 Day Challenge and it is going great!  However, I had planned my trip before planning my Challenge, so I knew that I would release myself from the restrictions over my 4 days in NOLA.   My mouth LOVED it.  My gut, eh, not so much. And my brain could use a fog lift as well.  And my…

    #MondayMantra Open to Receive 

    September 19, 2016 - By 

    “I am open to receive” What do you want to have more of in your life? Love, joy, confidence, acceptance, inspiration? Money, power, status, success? Adventure, excitement, challenge?  It’s all available to you, gift-wrapped and personalized, ready and waiting to be delivered to you. But Lovely, it’s not enough just to want it, not enough to work for it- you must be open and willing to receive it.  Turn on your “OPEN” sign to the universe and see what happens next! Try this mantra: “I am open to receive.” And when it comes, remember to say Thank You. ❤️

    September 30 Day Challenge: Halfway Point Check-in

    September 14, 2016 - By 

    Here I am, halfway through my September 30 Day Challenge and I have a few observations to share with you. I’ve broken them down into the three categories of my Challenge: Diet, Exercise, and Gratitude. DIET CHALLENGE: 30 days without consuming any sugar*, grains, dairy, or alcohol. (*No artificial sweeteners too. I do allow honey in my tea and pure maple syrup in my almond butter) Changing the way I eat is actually a lot easier than I thought it would be. I knew I was ready for a change, and I started out with the mindset that this is…

    #MondayMantra In Full Color 

    September 12, 2016 - By 

    It’s hard to imagine a time when technology only allowed for broadcasting images in black & white.  Like Dorothy waking up in the Land of Oz, a wonderful and magical place where anything is possible, so too can we explore what it means to follow our heart’s desire and discover some amazing things along the way: Courage, Wisdom, and Love. How strange then is it when we choose to hide our true colors and live a muted, toned down, restricted life?  How much more empowered would we be to face our fears and follow our hearts anyway? Today, I want…

    #FridayFeels : Find Your Calm in the Chaos 

    September 9, 2016 - By 

    Is your sense of calm easily upset by external factors, or have you learned how to achieve inner peace when the world around you feels chaotic? We have immense energy flowing through our body and mind at every moment of the day, and it can be overwhelming at times- especially when coupled with the energetic push and pull of people around us who may be struggling with their own life events.  So much drama!  But even in the most challenging situations, it is not only possible, but necessary for our sanity to settle down and find contentment. There are many…
