Believe: A Meditation of Positivity

December 28, 2017 - By The Blessings Butterfly

Believe in yourself, in your goodness, in your kindness, in your big, scary dreams & desires. Believe in your vision for yourself, and for a better world, a better day, a better tomorrow. Believe in your purpose and your value and your incredible worth. Believe in your magic and your ability to get back up & learn from your mistakes. Believe that every heartbeat is a prayer and every breath is an answer. Believe that you are Loved, and believe that you ARE Love, you are Light, you are Life. 💖🦋 #theblessingsbutterfly #empowermentcoach #believeinyourself #believe #soulhealing #positivity #empowerment #light #life…

Stretch Yourself

April 26, 2017 - By Michelle Lewis

Stretch Yourself! Stretch the muscles in your body; Stretch the limits of your imagination; Yes Love, S t r e t c h Y o u r s e l f, and see how far you can grow. Reach a little farther if you can. Stretch the boundaries of all that you think is possible for you to achieve, and in so stretching you will elevate yourself out of your small space of comfort, where you can harness your furthest goals and ride your wildest dreams!

Giving Up To Gain

March 1, 2017 - By The Blessings Butterfly

For the past several years, I stopped attending church services altogether in favor of ditching religion and religiosity for a deeper, more authentic, hands-on, dirt-under-my-nails, faith-without-borders spiritual quest of healing and enlightenment. I chose to shrug off what had come to feel like confinement and faking it, and just figure out how to connect with and love people in a way that felt a lot more natural and right for me. It has been the best decision I have ever made, and it has allowed me to take all of the good lessons that I learned and apply them (love,…

#FridayFaves: Healing Your Trauma Through Meditation, Featuring Rachel John of Soul BEing

October 14, 2016 - By The Blessings Butterfly

Sometimes you come across a person who exudes such compassion, kindness, peacefulness and genuine love for others that it makes you pause and wonder: How did they get to this place? Such is the case with my friend Rachel. She and I connected online through an exercise challenge; she lives in Wales, I am in the US. The energy and support within this online group was AMAZING. Truly supportive and really beautiful! The challenge ended, but several (hundred) of us, mostly women, wanted to remain connected so Rachel soon formed a spin-off group that kept the conversations and support going.…

Body-Positive Fitness, My Top 5 Tips, & Why I Created The Cocoon

August 24, 2016 - By The Blessings Butterfly

For the past couple of years, I have been wanting- no, longing to- create a series of fitness videos for people living in bigger bodies, with a crazy twist: I don’t want you to lose a bunch of weight (unless that is something YOU want for yourself). Instead, I wanted to simply love, support, and encourage people just like me to love the body that they are already living in, and provide them with some easy action-steps to help guide them to a healthier lifestyle. I had this radical notion that I could begin to deeply, truly LOVE…

#FridayFeels I Believe in Miracles

August 19, 2016 - By The Blessings Butterfly

What kind of miracle are you? Too often we believe that miracles can only be some unexplainable thing, or that they are only reserved for the experiences of canonized saints and characters in sacred texts. I want to be crystal clear when I tell you that you ARE a living, breathing miracle. Every day, you are a tangible example of the Divine, and your essence is Perfection. You. Are. A Miracle! And I believe in you. ❤️

In the Mirror: Always Believe in You

May 18, 2016 - By The Blessings Butterfly

Far too many people get upset and lose faith in themselves every time they look in the mirror. They pick themselves apart, attacking “flaws” and verbally beating themselves up for not being “perfect” rather than looking beyond their own skin. Hear Me: You are SO much more than just a body. You are SO MUCH more beautiful and valuable than any momentary image. You are so much MORE than society would have you believe! Start today to change the dialogue with your mirror, and begin to believe in YOU.

I was just updating my About section over on my personal FB page and noticed a new (?) feature called Intro. I actually have no idea how long that has been there. A week? 3 months? 20 minutes? But I digress… Anyway, I was suddenly struck by the way I was labeling myself and realized, Aha! I really do get to say whatever I want to about myself! YES! I define myself to the world, not the other way around. Here’s some of the (awesome!) labels I’ve chosen for myself: Just a little ray of sunshine! Occasional showers with a…

#MondayMantra I Am Worthy & Deserving of Good Things

December 28, 2015 - By The Blessings Butterfly

Monday Mantra: I am Worthy and Deserving of Good Things If you have ever struggled with feeling unworthy of having good things happen to you, or if you feel uneasy enjoying good things in your life, let today be the day that you begin to change your story. It does not make you selfish. It does not mean you are greedy. It simply means that as a human being, you are a magnificent miracle. You are alive.
