Relax
Slow down. Just enjoy the process. We get inpatient and well when that happens we overthink and hurt ourselves or get disappointed. Relax. Don’t rush things. It’s all meant to happen if it’s meant to happen.
Heal Within
When our mentality isn’t right we tend to neglect our bodies. Think about it. When we over indulge in little life’s pleasure usually means we are fulfilling a void or a need within....mentally. Which costs us to hurt our bodies. Whether we smoke, eat bad, drink or people
who take pills or do drugs.
It may take the edge off or help us not deal with certain issues or situations. It masks it. It may “relax” us or help us cope. It may be a distraction from our “reality” Bottom line it’s causing harm to our bodies. What we think it’s fixing is actually doing the opposite.
I have noticed while using My fitness pal to track my exercise and diet that I consume an abundance of Vitamin A and C. Mostly from eating peppers and kale twice a day. I noticed my body healing. Feeling amazing.
When I was overwhelmed this week I didn’t go to the store to get these items. My mood shifted. I didn’t feel right. I was crabby and short tempered. When I went back to my diet or healthy eating style it shifted back again.
Now I am not saying it could be it. I am saying our bodies and mind control us. But they must be aligned. We must have a healthy mind to have a healthy body. These vices mask and cause damage. We can heal ourselves if we treat our bodies correctly. We must heal our minds to have healthy bodies. You always see signs that say you can eat right and exercise but if your mind isn’t right then you are actually causing a lot of damage.
Be good to yourself. Your mind and body.

Happy Full Moon
This month I have been “off” old emotions from the past and even this year heartache stirring up. I hated it. I wanted it to stop. But I couldn’t. I am allowing myself to feel and heal and then I read about this.
We are affected by the universe. The pull of gravity. The stars. We are aligned. Think about your shifts in life.
Enjoy and embrace your new beginnings ❤️
Face Your Reality
Once you do and fully accept it. 100% accept it. You then can make changes.
Trust me. We all need to do this. I am the process. It’s a slow process. But if I can you can too.
It’s Ok To Detach
It’s ok to come to terms that some people can’t give you what you want and need. It doesn’t mean you’re upset or mad. It just means you have to learn to accept and move forward. You have to grow and learn these lessons.
You keep seeing things about a year ago and this year and about making 2020 a better year. That’s all great and true but it you carry the same pain or fear or hurt in your heart you’ll never move past it. You’ll never allow something more to come in.
I too didn’t expect my year to be the way it was. A lot of great amazing things but a lot of unnecessary drama and confusion and heartache. It just made me realize that holding on to people who aren’t going to give you more is just preventing someone else to come in who does want to.
When your brain is calm you reflect. You replay situations and conversations in your head. The ones that hurt you let it hurt and release it. Don’t repeat them. I did. I repeated my own pain for months and months thinking a different outcome. So pathetic. I even was reminded of it. Some say a waste of time but reality I grew from it. My soul came out to the surface. I reconnected within. It still bothers me a lot and pain will be there but I can’t keep replaying past situations when outcome is the same every time.
Detach. Love yourself. Grow. Heal. Move on. The past is the past. Stop carrying it with you. You can’t grow like that. You keep hurting your own self when you do hold on to something that is long gone.
Let it go. Allow new love and energy and people and fun and hope and joy into your life. Start today. ❤️

Be You!
What if you cut through all the bullsh$t.
Here’s what I mean. We live our lives trying to be something. To be accepted. Loved. Valued. Honored. Admired. Respected. All that. What if we stopped. What if we loved those who loved us. Honored those who honored us. Valued those who valued us.
Do you see my pattern here. We don’t do this. We fight to be loved by someone who doesn’t want to love us. We fight to be valued by those who don’t. Meanwhile a ton of people do. A TON. We bypass it. We hurt our hearts and esteem and decrease our value and true self because that one person who can’t value you sucks up all your esteem. I have seen it. I seen it in marriages. I seen it with parents. I seen it at work. Crazy.
We are trying to please the wrong people all the time. Meanwhile we are being valued and loved and respected by so many people but we are blinded by those who don’t.
Let that go!
Be Happy With Who You Are
Those who love you will stay. Those who do not stay in your life or journey taught you something about yourself. ❤️
Merry Christmas To...ME
It’s been over a year now that I needed a new Fitbit. Pathetic I know. So sure enough I kicked a bad habit and joined a gym and well purchased one for me. It’s nothing compared to a Smart Watch. Even a quarter of the price but I actually love it.
Who says your can’t be your own Santa Claus?
No one in life will take care of you like you. Your body is your home. Your temple. Be kind to it. It’s a work in progress...I get it. But be good to you.
Oh Rosie...Getting Sh&t Done
It’s hustle time. Work has been super busy. I am planning for a big work trip and so the Holiday season duties are kicking it. Yesterday was the holiday cards to go out. I thought kids would get a kick out of Rosie our Elf helping stamp envelopes. “Mom she wasted a stamp”. I couldn’t stop laughing.
Everyone’s list of to dos is insane around this time of year. Find humor in your days! Try to enjoy and embrace the chaos.
Feel Good Song: Winter Wonderland
We all need a little magic. I was driving kids to school and it was beautiful out and this song came on and I just said wow I needed this. A little magic in my life.
Take a timeout from the hustle and enjoy the beauty in the little things. Trust me I have to remind myself too.
Stay Away From Comfort
This is really important. We tend to go back to what’s comfortable even though it’s the thing that broke you or caused you heartache and pain. Just don’t.
You Can’t Control Everything
It was the third week I had to reschedule a hair appointment. I just had to laugh it off. First time was a school event. Second hair dresser was sick. Third today a school two hour delay.
I won’t lie I was super annoyed because not much time left to reschedule before the holidays. Yesterday events I woke up to a change of plans. At gym had to leave early cause now my daughter was staying home after I tried reaching them all morning just to wait for them another thirty minutes. It was one event after another.
I like structure. I love spontaneous fun but I like daily structure. Life isn’t that way. Life always is throwing curve balls. It’s always unpredictable and it really is for everyone.
I had to wake up and say just another day living. That’s all you can do and say. You can get mad but what good would that do. You can try to replan but odds are something can totally mess up again.
I used to be good judge of character. I used to be able to foresee things take place. After a situation this year didn’t go the way I thought I lost a little faith in myself. Outcomes. What I thought life would be like verse how life was.
Accept how it truly is. When you do you don’t get disappointed. Leave the fairy tales to the movies. It’s not reality. Face your reality. It can suck at times but it’s life.

You Are Not Perfect...You Are Real
I love Bryan Anthony’s designs and this one stood out for me. It’s about us being real. So what we are all a little broken. We are put back together after the fact. With character, experience and wiser. We got out of some real crappy situations and came out even better than we were before. Imagine if we didn’t. Imagine staying someplace you didn’t want to be. That to me is harder and more sad than embracing change and enjoying your journey. Kind of empowering and extremely rewarding.
