APRIL 2022 COMPENDIUM
WHAT IS THE MAGIC?
When we are able to allow ourselves to become ‘mindful’……..aware of the many-many changes, adaptations, the day to day transitions and changes we navigate each day; only then can we make sense of things.
Through connecting our ‘heart and head’, we can experience glimpses of calm, sureness, along with a feeling of ease and flow --- that is where the MAGIC LIVES.
HOW?
SIMPLE, although not easy at first since you are developing – nurturing a new habit; making a conscious effort towards allowing new behaviors to emerge that will balance and harmonize your inner-Self, your thought patterns, emotions and how you feel about You and your place in the world.
SACRED SELF ~ Self First
Sacred means important and highly valued, special.
Nourish means provide spiritual, physical, emotional and/or mental nourishment and support growth.
Fortify is to strengthen.
Renew means re-energize, re-emerge, make new, restore, rejuvenate.
The person best at honoring and appreciating the mind, body, spirit and energy of others —- is the one who has learned to honor and appreciate it in Self First.
Sacred self-care goes beyond grooming or a pampering massage–to being committed to the WHOLE self, mind, body and spirit. Self care comes from a place of fullness, honor, self-worth and renewal instead of from self-neglect, tiredness, frustration and depletion.
To pause. To nourish.
To fortify. To renew.
A renewal, or re-emergence of who you are is not something that occurs within the mind and it can be a tremendous undertaking for the mind alone to handle.
Connecting head and heart is the starting place.
SACRED SPACE
SACRED SPACE Creating a familiar site, a very special area or space with objects that awaken and connect your heart feelings of simple pleasures and peace filled serenity, where you pause to rest and relax; to restore balance between the mind and heart and body.
A tray, dresser or small table top – with a comfortable place to sit… your personal space to reflect, inspire creativity, unwind and to merely Be Still. In the moment, pausing all thinking, decisions or worries.
Items may include a photo, momentos or souvenir, crystal, candle, herbs, cards or other playful toys…
Being In-the-Moment: MINDFUL
Practice is the goal.
Practice to live in awareness.
Practice to nurture your practice.
QUESTION? Contemplate on how things are going for you.
How well are you really able to maneuver and control your external world?
Imagine if you could ‘transform’ your world?
As a Spiritual Coach, I create and hold a ‘safe space’ for others to simply Be.
No expectations, no rush—- a time to pause, to quiet, to feel content, and breathe.
Many of us at various times, some most of the time, are filled with anxiety, worries and concerns and feel there’s no choice(s).
It is up to each of us as an individual to choose how we want to spend our time, energy and money, in hopes…..
to take one small step after another,
to to live a life filling up with our own emerging light.
ENTERING YOUR LIGHT ~ Power-Filled
Feeling strong within, protected and safe, resilient with integrity and courage. A confidence, worthiness and sense of Self. Okay. Satisfied. Content.
A place to release blame, guilt, fault so your inner landscape can comfort your soul. Awaken to your power of choice.
There is a power within that one receives in quiet, it arises from solitude, self care and self respect - high regard for self and honoring your feelings, your thoughts, your body and Spirit…
EACH DAY:
· Take a few moments to ‘feel’ how you are feeling? Is there flow, strength, hope?
· Listen, really listen or sense what your inner-self, your Sacred Self, is saying to you. Hear.
You are a worthy person. You are deserving of all manner of good.
You are okay.
RIGHT NOW, THIS VERY MINUTE: You are okay.
Breathe deep. Breathe slow. And breathe some more.
With much light, Jill
