Set yourself up for sweet, happy dreams. Use this concentrated blend before bed.
The Magic Mix:
Place a dab on your wrists prior to pre-bed meditation and practice with Nadi Shodhana (Alternate nostril breathing).
Begin each day with gratitude. Gratitude allows the empowerment of choice. We either choose to see the endless beauty that surrounds us, or we do not.
Expectations of how we should look, dress, and act swirl around us every day. Disregard these supposed “expectations.” Each of us is on an individual journey of exploration. All paths are different. Never compare. Accept yourself with full and deep love. Know you are enough and do not question it.
Powerful emotions often trigger spontaneous reactions. Rather than instantly reacting to those emotions, allow the dust to settle first. Be with the way you are feeling, but do not respond to it (a task that is much easier said than done). After you have allowed these initial emotions to wane, do not disregard your feelings as insignificant or unimportant. Rather, recognize the trigger. Accept your desires and needs.
Sometimes we are our own worst enemy. While we are able to treat others with love and respect, sometimes we are unable to do the same for ourselves. Know that you deserve love. That begins by loving yourself.
We all mess-up. If you have made a mistake or wronged someone, own up to it. Have courage to take responsibility for your actions.
We cannot change the past or predict the future. Dwelling on either will result in pain and heartache. All we have is the present.
Actions speak louder than words. Believe it. Words are powerful and important. But, in the end, people speak in action. The way you treat yourself and others will show others everything they need to know.
Harboring anger and resentment will ultimately cause greater suffering. Forgive. Let go. Move on. It’s the only way to be truly free.
Do not let past experiences allow you to lose faith in love. Be open. There is an endless amount of love in the world just waiting to fill you up.
Take time to pray. Every day. Connect with your higher power. Ask for guidance and love.
There are no coincidences. The universe is created in an implicit order beyond our wildest dreams.
It’s just weird when people take life too seriously. Don’t you think?
Now notice how it feels like to tell yourself that you are worthy. Feel it in your body. Where do you notice the sensations? Feel it in your heart. Feel it in your head. Perhaps you feel overwhelmed with happiness, maybe not. Maybe you will realize that your entire life, you have never once told yourself that you are enough.
The way we internally speak to ourselves has incredible power. The inner chatter radiates through our being. It becomes transparent in the way we carry our bodies, the way we speak, and the energy we exude. Today, bring awareness to the way you speak to yourself. Do not judge, rather observe. Allow yourself to shift the way you are speaking to yourself, even if you don’t believe it. Create an affirmative mantra that resonates with you and repeat it. Repeat it until you believe it.
For every negative thought, replace it with a positive one, an age-old simple, but effective technique. See what happens. Purify your thoughts and set yourself free.
Shine on beauties!
