Life Design
Confidence Is Critical
Confidence is critical in the game of life. Stand in your power and speak your truth, because this really raises your confidence level. When you bite your tongue, when you ignore and deny what your true feelings are at the expense of another, or allowing another person to override how you are feeling, it crushes your soul, your beautiful spirit. The more that you do that, the weaker you begin to feel inside.
It’s not about getting into a fight with everybody. It is about lovingly asserting yourself, coming from your heart. Pay attention to the conversations you are having with people. Pay attention to how you are showing up for yourself and when you feel yourself backing down, or not being strong in your thoughts, in your opinions. Pay attention, and see how it feels to express yourself in a new way, differently.
Releasing A Toxic Relationship
Many of us have held onto a toxic relationship (which includes friendships) because of our mind trying to convince us that it will change. It will get better. I can fix this other person. I will wait for this other person to realize what they have in me. This person is my soulmate, I know it. This person is the only one, there will never be another.
So many excuses, so little truth.
It will not change. If a relationship or a friendship is toxic today, yes, it will change and become more toxic as the days, weeks and months pass.
It will not get better. You are trying to convince yourself it will get better with time with someone, when they finally start to realize that you are there no matter what. This is a huge misconception. Toxic relationships cannot change and the loss will be harder the longer you hold onto this person.
You cannot ‘fix’ your partner. No one can fix another person. No one can change another person. Each individual has to do their own work to clear the toxic or damaged parts of themselves. They have to do it for themselves, or it will never last.
The Fallacy Of Future Happiness
One of the most consistent messages that come through when I am doing readings for clients, is the effects of the stories we tell about life and our circumstances. This is the first in a series of two blogs discussing two types of stories that people often tell themselves that have the potential to promote self-sabotage related to nearly every area of life.
We are all storytellers by nature and every experience that we have as human beings is an interpretation of the world around us. We apply labels to the world around us and the circumstances we find ourselves in every day. One of the most damaging stories that we tell ourselves are the future stories of happiness.
Spirit will often give us insights into patterns in our own lives to avoid. A consistent pattern to avoid is the fallacy that something in the future will eventually cause happiness. Happiness simply does not work like that.
I Have Looked At Life From Both Sides Now – Part 3
The walls! The walls were painted a beautiful, deep pink color. I looked at the floor. It was a vibrant, silver shade, that seemed to be alive and sparkling. A nurse came to see me and said, “Well you are awake now. Welcome! You are now back in the true world.”
“Where are my daughters?” I asked.
“They are still in the dense Earth dimension, where you have just come from. They will be alright,” she replied. “When you are ready, you can visit them any time. But right now we must get you dressed. You have some family and friends waiting to see you. Your clothes are on the chair, right beside you, so get ready to meet with them.”
After I got dressed, I walked down a hallway into a dark room. All of a sudden I heard, “Surprise! This is the day of your birth on the other side! Continue reading
How Empathy Can Help You Love Your Career
Career-oriented empaths, who find value in succeeding in their chosen field, sometimes hit the wall at work. You wake up one day and realize, your performance record has declined, you haven’t had an amazing review in years, you have to triple check your work and even worse, you are always passed over for promotions. No wonder you feel resentful, and like you can’t keep up at work. And no matter what your career choice, it usually looks something like this.
You finish college, which was most likely easier for you. You get into the company of your choice, and you start excelling. Almost immediately moving through the ranks with ease. You recognize that life, although it has its bumps, seems to unfold fairly easy for you. And you have a feeling, more than a feeling, a knowing, that it is connected to your sixth sense, your gut feeling, those little flurries of feelings that has always guided you through life. You may not recognize it as your empathy yet, but you know that your gut instinct has always led you in the right direction, and when you are in tune with it, things do tend to happen.
Manifesting Love
He loves me, he loves me not. Do you find yourself daydreaming about love? Imagining your next partner, what they will look like and when they are going to arrive in your life? Maybe you’re wondering if the person that you are interested in is also into you? Or perhaps you’re simply contemplating your current relationship?
Whatever your current relationship status, I am sure that thoughts of romantic love creep into your mind quite often. So, given that we manifest not only with our actions, but even more so with our thoughts, take heed! Manifesting real, meaningful love isn’t as hard as you may think.
Over the years, experience has taught me that next to money, manifesting love is at the top of the list for most people. We all want a relationship where we feel desired, respected and appreciated. And I just told you that it’s not really that hard to manifest. So why does it seem so hard to come by?
Retrogrades Are Opportunities For Growth
Have you been feeling down and struggling lately? Over the past few months the cosmic energies have been really heavy and challenging. However, one thing to really think about is point of view. Everything in life is about perspective. That old saying of when life gives you lemons make lemonade is a perfect example.
When planets in general are retrograde, especially Mercury, all too often people tend to find the potential ‘challenges’ and the negativity in that energy. I feel retrograde planets are not about negativity, but about using our energy to help us.
The planets each represent something, and aspect of our lives. It’s different for each of us, depending on our own personal birth chart. Planets influence all different categories and parts of our lives and just like every area in our lives, things ebb and flow. We have to fumble and fall sometimes with mistakes in order to grow and learn.
