Holistic Healing and Empowerment Coaching
How was your 2017?
For me, it was like something took my life and turned it upside down half way through 2017!
I understood this was to be a year when things could get “shaken up” but I didn’t think that was my fate.
I was planning a group online coaching program and several online training courses. Not so fast, the Universe had other plans. In June, my husband received a diagnosis of small cell lung cancer, a nasty one; and since then, nothing has been the same.Read More
If you’re tired of self-judgement, of trying to be someone you’re not, then it’s time to let go of seeking validation from others.
It’s time to be exactly who you are. That’s freedom!
The most splendid achievement of all is the constant striving to surpass yourself and to be worthy of your own approval. ~ Denis Waitley

February, a month when we express our love on Valentine’s Day!
Here’s something on LOVE from a coaching site I recently read: In the movie, in “Don Juan DeMarco” (1994), Johnny Depp as Don Juan says, “There are only four questions of value in life, Don Octavio.:
The answer to each is the same – only love.”
In truth, this is one sexy movie, full of romance and sweetness. And the quote says it all.
As we welcome the New Year 2017, we wonder what it may hold for us.
In some people this may cause an anxious moment: in others, the thrill of many exciting possibilities is felt.
We are energy beings, science has proven this. Our vibrational energy can attract what we want rather than just “wait and see” what blows our way.
Are you ready to co-create 2017 as a Magical year?
Are you feeling able to manifest your wishes?
Here are 5 easy steps to jumpstart your manifesting abilities:
I love the Fall! I hope you are enjoying the beginning of the amazingly beautiful Fall colours that are are so vivid, deep and rich. Fall is one of my favourite times, the trees are “letting go” of leaves so effortlessly and entering into an inner stillness in preparation for the winter. It reminds me to let go of any beliefs, fears or doubts that may be stopping me from shining my light and being the best I can in this lifetime!
Stop struggling with trying so hard to hold onto beliefs that no longer serve you. It takes a lot of energy to “hold on”.
If you are experiencing “crushing” emotions of hurt, sorrow, anger or fear, here are quick ways of restoring your centre and balance:Read More
Spring – new beginnings, freshness, movement, rebirth of nature, light and warmth and colour will soon abound. Mother Earth is swelling with the potential of her bountiful gifts, so maybe we too are ready to “birth” new beginnings.
We naturally feel an urge to “spring clean” our bodies and homes and get our gardens ready for flourishing. And while these outward changes benefit us, spring is also a beautiful time to look within yourself and prepare the garden of your life to manifest your dreams.
Here are 5 powerful ideas to plant the seeds of your intentions and see them flourish into becoming:
The heart chakra IS the heart of the matter.
February is HEART month. On a more metaphysical level we can ask ourselves, are we open to fully give and receive love? The energetic key to this aspect is found in our Heart Chakra.
The heart chakra is known as Anahata in Sanskrit. The word anahata means “unhurt, un-struck, and unbeaten.” Imagine feeling like nothing can hurt you, nothing negative is coming at you, and you are on top of all situations in your life. Imagine being able to love unconditionally! That is the provenance of the heart chakra.
When you clear and balance your fourth chakra, the result is you grow spiritually. It is in the heart chakra that you connect to universal love and dissolve the illusion of separateness. It is here you can heal, both emotionally and physically. When you open your heart to love, you can forgive yourself and others, connect deeply to others, rise above the lower emotions of anger, hatred, and envy, and rise to a higher state of consciousness. In the heart center you experience peace and deep inner balance.
Happiness: has been defined as feeling joyful, contented, with a sense of meaning in life…is this something you desire for 2016?
Here are practices that can anchor happiness to your life this coming year:
Start a “Gratitude” list on your phone or notepad.
Recording the “cool” parts of your day can increase positive emotions, boost your immune system and more. The awesome parts may include positive events, meaningful interactions, or special moments. By holding a focus on the good parts of your day (and life) you will banish your brain’s tendency to just call it another day.
End that negative self-talk
Have you ever noticed how you speak to yourself? Are you hearing criticism and judgment? Start listening to your inner voice and see if you can begin to be kinder to yourself. Self-compassion results in less anxiety and greater feeling of overall well-being.
Where are you? Be in the Moment
This means just being aware of what’s happening around you and within you – using all 5 senses.
The big benefit – your mind will stop obsessing over the past or worrying about the future when you practice this mindfulness. You will need to consciously make mindfulness a daily regular part of your life in order to curb your habitual wandering mind.
You can start by bringing mindfulness into daily tasks like showering, chopping vegetables, and eating. When you notice your mind wandering, bring it back to the present moment by paying attention to what you feel, hear, smell, see, and taste. You can enhance mindfulness through meditation.
