What is Self-Love?

 

Can Self-Love actually be enough to power intentional healing of the body?  

 

Most people think that love requires other people, but even self-love has the power to move mountains. Love really does have the power to heal us from the inside out. In fact, love has been proven to heal wounds at rapid paces. 

 

So, what exactly is Self-Love??? 

 

How can we know if we are truly loving ourselves unconditionally? 

 

This has taken me a lot of thought. 

 

When I was hard on myself and especially my body, my body internalized that self-judgement with chronic body wide pain. 

 

My body ached and burned for me to pay attention to it and love it just the way it was. It took me a lot of time to learn how to love myself. I think I am still mastering it and it may end up being my personal soul work in this life. 

 

Self-love has taught me that I am loving to myself when….. 

 

  • I take the time to slow down in my life. When I allow for more flow and ease and give up the stress of trying to control situations. 
  • Self-love to me has been the ability to look inward and ask myself questions while listening for my soul's answers. Listening to my intuition, my soul’s whispers have been my greatest ally. 
  • Self-love has been revelling in the perfection that I truly am. Perfect right now. Every body part, every thought, every curve, every pound.
  • Self-love is trusting my instincts and saying no when I need to rest or relax. This has not been easy for me. As an empath, I want to heal the world. Saying no has been an art for me. 
  • Self-love has been about being kind and patient with myself and really accepting myself as a perfect creation of god/creator/spirit. 
  • Self-love is about letting go of my judgements towards myself. I have learned that I am my worst critic. Quieting my inner critic with love and respect has been a vital part of my daily practice. It is sort of like brain gym for my negative Nancy. Correcting her behaviour when I notice her coming to visit. 
  • Self-love is embracing my sensitivity. I tend to be a little emotional at times and can easily cry. Embracing this sensitivity has been so freeing for me. I have learned that showing my emotions in all situations has deepened my relationships with people and myself. 
  • Self-love has been letting go of my past mistakes and forgiving myself. Thanking my soul for the knowledge and learning that came with it. After all, my biggest challenges have been my greatest teacher.  
  • Self-love has been honouring my truth even when it is hard. Even when others disagree. I am still working on this one.  
  • Self-love is about letting go of relationships and things that no longer align with my highest and best interest. 

 

It has also been about taking myself on dates, buying myself flowers and being my very best friend. It is about knowing that I deserve the best and giving myself permission to give that best to myself. I love to treat myself to the very best when I can. 

 

We can also lean into loving our partners/spouses/friends and even animal companions more. Making time for hugs and cuddles. Love of all kinds releases lovely hormones like dopamine and oxytocin. They relax the stress response and really make the body ripe for miracles. 

 

When we feel a lack of self-love, love and connection, we are more susceptible to imbalances in the body. Our bodies are so wise. The body shifts as our frequencies shift.

 

When we are out of cinq with love we can be more susceptible to...

 

  • Chronic inflammation
  • Immune system imbalances
  • Elevated blood pressure
  • Increased cortisol levels
  • Pain
  • Fatigue
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Increased reactivity to stress

 

This is really because lack of love can activate our stress response. 

 

When we feel love in our hearts we….

 

  • Have more flexibility
  • Immune systems are balanced
  • Pain is less
  • Your Heart beats stronger
  • Hormones are better balanced
  • Feel happy 
  • Sleep deeper
  • Blood sugars are more stable. 
  • Exercise more, and our blood chemistry physically changes

 

SELF LOVE 

 

For me, it has been about learning to say no, taking time for myself and really turning my attention to self-care. 

 

Self-love has been about being kind to myself and loving every curve and dimple on my body. It has been about being my biggest fan, and my very best friend. 

 

It has been about being patient with myself and knowing that there is a great timing for everything. 

 

It has also been about self-forgiveness and even permission to let out the parts of myself that are not all that pretty. 

 

Self-love has been my greatest healing journey. 

 

Do you practice self-love? 

 

I would love to hear about it.  Leave your comments below.

How to Increase Your Life Force for FREE

 

This is something I have been doing for many years and I feel that it has been a huge factor in my development and nourishing of my healing abilities, along with the maintenance of my own health.

 

What I am referring to is Meditating with a Tree. 

 

You know that feeling when you go for a walk or spend time in a forest; how relaxed and balanced you feel during and after.

 

That is because you are taking in some of the healing energies available to you.  So, what if you took the time to place your hands on a healthy tree and allowed yourself to feel the energy that it wants to share with you on an even deeper level?

 

This is what I do.  More specifically, I ask if the tree has a message for me, if it has a healing for me and if it has anything it wants to share with me.

 

You see trees have spirits too, they are alive, and they communicate through frequency.  Once you attune to the frequency you can understand their language. But that is for another conversation. 

 

If you want to increase your life force, as in help your body be and feel healthier, heal faster from illnesses and injuries, become more adaptable to stress, increase your intuition and simple become more resilient I recommend doing this simple of act of Meditating with a Tree.

 

The act of Meditating with Trees has a long history and there are many great people throughout history that proclaimed they gained healing power and enlightenment via meditating with a tree.

 

Two specific people are Buddha and Jesus Christ. 

 

How I Meditate with a TREE 

 

The way I meditate with a tree is I look for a strong healthy tree somewhere where I will not be disturbed (this can even be in your own yard).  I stand in front of it placing my hands on the trunk in a comfortable location with my eyes closed.  I breath naturally and allow myself to feel the energy of the tree. 

 

The more you do this the more sensitive you become to the subtle energy of the tree. 

 

If you have never done this before I recommend using the same tree daily to develop a relationship with it.  You will be amazed that overtime you will feel the love from that tree before you even touch it because it will be projecting to you when you are close by and even from further distances. 

 

To help deepen your relationship with the tree ask it questions like the ones I wrote above.  Along with asking it, “is there anything I can do for you?”  Trees love it when you give back to them.  This can be as simple of projecting love to them or visualizing them healthy. 

 

If you are hearing for the first time, it might sound strange.  But, think about it, you have nothing to lose.  If anything, you have much to gain. 

 

I’d love to hear from you.  Let me know if you have ever meditated with a tree and what your experience was like?

What I learned During my 14-Day Self-Isolation with my Family.

 

Firstly, I want to mention that as soon as Keri and I found out we were exposed to suspected Covid-19 cases, we went into self-isolation.  5 days later it was confirmed that the people we were exposed to tested positive.

 

We were lucky that the doctor that exposed us reached out to let us know, so we could begin taking the precautions.   

 

During our 14-day family isolation, I realized even more how grateful I am to have such an amazing intuitive knowledgeable wife (Keri). 

 

Before our exposure we began stocking up on specific immune boosting supplements in case we needed them.  Plus, we already had several high-quality essential oils in our house, which are also great for supporting immunity. 

 

Keri has over 20yrs of training and education in natural medicine, which include a diploma in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), practitioner in Functional Medicine and studying to be a Dr. of Natural Medicine. So she knew the what we needed to be taking, plus therapeutic doses we needed.

 

I learned how efficient my immune system is.  Out of all 4 of us (Keri and my 2 daughters) I had the least of the symptoms.  We were all taking the same supplements and essential oils, but the main difference with me is I do specific energy healing techniques daily that boost my ability to heal faster and clear stress. 

 

I learned that I have a very supportive community both online and in person.  We had many people praying for us, along with buying us groceries and checking in on us daily to make sure we were ok. 

 

Thank you, if you were one of those people. 

 

Lastly, what I learned is I would like to move onto a big piece of property to be able to still go outside, get fresh air, sunshine and connect with nature during times like this because it is really important for my physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. 

 

How about you, I know your situation is different than mine.  Is there anything that you’ve learned about yourself during this Covid-19 pandemic?

 

I'd love to hear. Comment below.

 

P.S if you want to take part in a Group Healing for boosting your immune system, ability to heal and clearing stress click here.  

 

Every Friday at 12pm Keri and I are facilitating an Energy Healing and sharing what we did to overcome Covid-19.

Herbal Hacks to Boost Your Intuition

 

In order to have the best intuition you need to have a vital mind and body.

 

Many people tell me they don’t trust their intuition or think it is unreliable.   What I find with these people is their vitality is low.

 

The reason for this, is because their minds and bodies are clogged up with toxins and lacking certain nutrients to perform on a consistent basis.

 

You can enhance your intuition with herbs whether you are just starting out using your intuition or you have been using it for a while. 

 

I know this to be true, because I did it. 

 

There are two herbs that work together synergistically to feed and nourish your intuition.  I’m talking about Fo-ti (He Shou Wu) and Gotu Kola.

 

Together these herbs bring together one of the most important Traditional Chinese Medicine rejuvenates with one of the most important Indian (Ayurveda) herbs.

 

Both are used to counter the effects of aging and revitalize the mind and body.

 

  • Fo-ti for building and rebuilding tissues
  • Gotu Kola for revitalizing the mind.

 

Why do these Herbs Enhance Intuition?

 

Fo-ti

 

Fo-ti enhances intuition because it builds up the physical life force of the body. 

 

It builds blood and sperm and makes the ova more vital.  Thus, considered to be a primary fertility-enhancing herb.  It strengthens the muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones. It strengthens the kidneys, liver and nervous system and prevents premature aging.  It’s a famous herb for restoring head hair from grey to its natural color. 

 

Research has demonstrated that Fo-ti can greatly increase superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity.  SOD is a powerful natural antioxidant and free-radical scavenger that has powerful anti-aging properties.  Fo-ti also inhibits beta-monoamine oxidase.

 

Gotu Kola

 

Gotu Kola enhances intuition revitalizing the nerves and brain cells.

 

Gotu Kola is used for increasing intelligence, longevity, memory and decreasing senility and aging.  It fortifies the immune system, both cleansing and feeding it and strengthens the adrenal glands.  At the same time, it is a powerful blood purifier for chronic skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

 

It’s considered one of the most spiritual of all herbs.  Used by yogis as food for meditation.  It awakens the crown chakra and helps balance the right and left hemispheres of the brain.

 

How to Ingest Fo-ti & Gotu Kola?

 

As a decoction (tea) I recommend taking these herbs together in equal portion and adding a little bit of fennel to assist with digestion and assimilation.

 

Another way to take these herbs is via tincture (alcohol extraction) in equal portions.

Why I do Qi Gong

 

“If you want to be healthy and live a 100 years, do qigong.” ~ Dr. Oz

 

In China they have known this fact for 1000s of years.  Qi Gong is the foundation from where all Traditional Chinese Medicine originates.  It is well known for its health and longevity promoting benefits. 

 

What is Qi Gong?

 

Qi Gong is a holistic system of coordinated body posture and movement, breathing, and meditation used for the purposes of health, spirituality, and martial arts training. Qi Gong is traditionally viewed as a practice to cultivate and balance qi (energy/life force).

 

Qi Gong practice typically involves moving meditation, coordinating slow flowing movement, deep rhythmic breathing, and calm meditative state of mind. Qi Gong is now practiced throughout China and worldwide for recreation, exercise and relaxation, preventive medicine and self-healing, alternative medicine, meditation and self-cultivation, and training for martial arts.

 

Cool Fact about Qi Gong

 

There are both medicine-less and regular hospital in China where Qi Gong is practiced to restore health to the sick for even issues like cancer.    

 

But Qi Gong is not only practiced by the sick, it’s a way of life for many (including myself). 

 

I’ve been practicing Qi Gong for over 20yrs and I’ve experienced many benefits and seen other benefit in the following ways:

  • Pain reduction
  • Emotional stress relief
  • Faster recovery time from illness and injuries
  • Improved concentration and focus
  • Intuitive and psychic development
  • Increased energy levels
  • Regulate blood pressure
  • Improve coordination and balance

 

These benefits are all possible because Qi Gong exercises help to declutter your personal energy which gets altered by negative thinking, stress, poor food choices, toxins, electro-magnetic frequencies (EMF) and more. 

 

When your energy is flowing smoothly, then your blood flows smoothly and nourishes your cells, tissues, organs, glands, etc. efficiently.  Thus, helping to strengthen your body. 

 

Where can you learn Qi Gong?

 

1. Look for an instructor in your local area.

 

2. I teach weekly classes in the Balanced Health Membership.  Each class is recorded, so members can practice exercises several times to master them.

Boost Your Immunity In Winter

 

 

Winter is said to host many dreaded colds and flu bugs.  Not only that, but it is historically known as one of the most depressing seasons in North America. 

 

Why is it a dull season to many?

 

I think it is the lack of sunshine, flu’s and colds, and a dull feeling after the excitement of the holidays. 

 

Many people find themselves battling cold after cold, having less energy than they would like and even feeling alittle blue.

 

But, rather than grab for cough syrup and cold remedies, how about boosting your immune system so you are rock solid and don’t get sick at all?

 

Wouldn’t you like to cruise through winter healthy, happy and have boundless amounts of energy?

 

I know I would!

 

Lets Clear Some Things Up First

 

Many people believe that if you go out into the cold weather dressed improperly, you will catch a cold.  Whether that is an old wives tale or a good parental scare tactic, it’s just not true. 

 

Cold weather actually boost your IMMUNE SYSTEM.  Going from cold to hot gets your lymphatic system moving, heart pumping and immune system engaged.  It’s like giving your immune system a workout!

 

What About the Germs?

 

Do you think that there are actually more germs floating around in the winter than in the summer?

 

Not true!

 

The germs are still there.  It’s actually the sun’s UVB & UVA Rays that increase your absorption of Vitamin D keeping your immune system strong in the summer months.   

 

Yes, you still get Vitamin D in the winter just less is absorbed from less UVB & UVA Rays.

 

I should mention that people are generally happier in the summer.  With happiness comes less stress, and since stress is a major immune system inhibitor, it’s no wonder less people get sick in the summer.

 

Could It Be Less Exercise?

 

Like it or not, for the most part, people are not as active in the winter months.  They stay indoors more often than not, and don’t engage in as many sports.  Even getting to the gym can prove to be a big feat for some. 

 

Exercise improves circulation, stimulates the immune system, detoxifies your body and raises energy levels.  Not only is it essential for good immunity, but it gives you a good boost of 'feel good hormones.'

 

So, exercise is essential for warding off flu bugs for sure.

 

7 Tips for Increasing Immunity

 

1. Exercise – Make sure that you are getting at least 30-60 minutes of exercise daily.  This will increase your immunity, help you stay strong and fit and give you the 'joy du vive' you are looking for in the winter.

 

Have you ever noticed that people who exercise in the winter are happier?

 

2. Vitamin D – Supplement with Vitamin D to increase your body’s immunity in the winter months. Vitamin D helps you fight infections of all kinds. 

 

A study in Japan, showed that school aged children taking Vitamin D everyday during the winter, reduced their risk of catching the flu. 

 

The recommended daily intake of Vitamin D is 1000 iu for adults.  But, I have found that most people living in the Northern Hemisphere require more to maintain optimal levels.  Make sure to get tested with your doctor to see where your Vitamin D levels are.

 

You can purchase Vitamin D at health food sotre or online:  Click here for Vitamin D 

 

3. Get Adequate Rest – Let’s face it, even with the dark days upon us, a lot of us have a tendency to stay up way too late.  Lack of rest not only decreases your body’s energy, but also increases your stress levels.  Stress lowers immunity.

 

You should be striving to get to bed by 10pm everyday to keep your body’s energy up and therefore your immunity.

 

4. Probiotics – One of the best immune boosters are good flora or Probiotics.  Did you know that good good flora make up the first line of defense for your immune system.  Good flora also create about 80% of your immunity.  So, it goes without saying that to have great immunity, you definitely need to have a strong gut health.

 

I personally supplement with good flora containing fermented foods like kefir and kombucha on a daily basis. You can also use Probiotics, which can be found in your natural health food store or in my store.

 

Buy Probitoics Here   

 

Make sure you buy a Probiotics that are stored in the fridge to maintain potency.

 

5. Herbal Immune Boosters – There are many Herbal Immune Boosters you can use in the winter for both prevention and treatment.  The key is consistency.  My favorvites include:

  • Echinacea

  • Goji Berries 

  • Maitake Mushrooms

  • Astragalus Root

  • Pine Needles

Echinacea – This is one of the more commonly known immune boosters, but I find that it is not always used correctly.  Echinacea is widely used to fight infections, especially common colds and other upper respiratory infections.  I have also used it at the first signs of mastitis quite effectively. The key is to use it at the first signs of infection: virus or bacteria.

 

So how do you use Echinacea?

 

Firstly, it’s more potent and effective to use a tincture made from fresh Echinacea rather than dried.  Dried Echinacea has normally lost a lot of its potency. 

 

Echinacea tincture can be used on the first signs of a cold or flu.  But, 20-30 drops two to three times a day is usually not that effective.  For the first sign of a cold or infection, Echinacea can be used safely every 1-2 hours 1tsp or 30 drops, until the cold or infection subsides. 

 

As always if you have an infection that does not improve, you should always see a doctor.  Also, if you have an auto-immune disease you should speak with a practitioner before using it.

 

You can purchase Echinacea at health food stores or online.

 

Buy Echinacea Here  

 

Goji Berries – For more than 5000 years the Chinese have used Goji Berries as part of their traditional medicine.  It’s known as ‘The Fruit of Longevity;’ having amazing immune enhancing qualities.

 

Goji Berries are loaded with Vitamin C and I love to get it from natural sources. 

 

Most Vitamin C supplements found on store shelves are derived from corn and most likely genetically modified (GMO).  So that’s a big win for Goji Berries.

 

Goji Berries also reduce inflammation, improve resistance to cancer cell growth, nourish blood, reduce allergies & dizziness, improve vision and even help with low back pain. WOW!

 

You can buy Goji Berries in health food stores, grocery stores and online.

 

Buy Goji Berries Here

 

Maitake Mushrooms – They contain Beta Glucan, a compound responsible for immune support and macrophages, which are immune cells that eat up viruses.

 

In addition to that, Maitake mushrooms help turn on natural killer cells (NKC), which give viruses the 1-2 punch combo out of your body!

 

Lastly, they are loaded with polysaccharides, reduce inflammation, help with collagen production, energy production and so much more. 

 

I’m sure that in future studies we will see more amazing qualities of this mushroom.

 

You can buy Maitake Mushrooms in health food stores or online.

 

Buy Maittake Mushrooms here

 

Astragalus Root - This is another herb used in Traditional Chinese Medicine as an ENERGY & IMMUNE BOOSTER.  It’s known as an adaptogenic herb, which means it lowers your stress hormone cortisol.  Stress hormones inhibit your immune system, so Astragalus is a powerful herb to keep on hand. 

 

Astragalus also strengthen the lungs, which can lessen your susceptibility to respiratory infections and viruses and contains antioxidants that reduce inflammation. 

 

This is something I like to take everyday in the winter to keep my immune system top notch.

 

You can buy Astragalus at health food stores or online.

 

Buy Astragalus Root here 

 

Pine Needles – Did you know that pine needles are extremely high in Vitamin C & A?  Not only that, but they are also a very powerful antioxidant, antiviral and immune system powerhouse.  Pine Needles have been used for eons by native communities to boost Vitamin C levels, prevent cold and flu. 

 

Pine Needles are great for preventing oxidative stress, beneficial for your skin and hair, and even have been known to improve vision.

 

Pine Needle tea also is antiseptic, helping to prevent bad bacteria and microbes from affecting your body.   They also help treat respiratory cold and infection by expectorating phlegm and neutralizing pathogens found in the sinuses. 

 

All you need are some Pine Needles and a pot of water.  A good handful will do.  Just bring water to a boil, turn off, put Pine Needles in pot, cover and let steep for 15-30mins.  Strain and enjoy. 

 

6. Local Raw Honey – Honey is perhaps one of the best immune system boosters out there.  The world health organization lists honey as a demulcent, which treats coughs.  I have used it for dry cough quite successfully.

 

Raw honey contains bee pollen, which is also known to ward off infections, prevent allergies, and is a natural source of energy.

 

Honey has been extensively studied and has been shown to increase disease fighting polyphenols in the blood.   Polyphenols are part of what makes honey a great choice for both prevention and treatment of colds.

 

7. Laughter - They say laughter is the best medicine.  I think this is more true than we realize. Not only does laughter increase our sense of well being, inner happiness and energy, but it creates a strong immune system.  

 

It's one of the easiest ways to boost immunity.  

 

I think that as adults we tend to laugh less than children. Perhaps we should take a tip from the kids and be more care-free in life?  

 

So, how can you bring more laughter into your life?  Make a commintment to laugh everyday, even if there is nothing to laugh at.  Some would call this Laughter Yoga.  Simply laugh.  Soon you will be laughing at how silly it is and it will become infectious.  

 

You could also make time to watch a comedy, visit friends (this usually brings about some laughs) and even play with kids.  It doesn't matter how you do it, just make time for laughing each day. 

 

What matters most for yourself is to come up with a good plan to keep your body and mind healthy and enjoy winter.   

 

You will know you are doing good when people around you are getting sick and you are not or you recover quickly from colds and flus.

#1 Thing That Helped Me Heal

 

As a child and teenager, I suffered from severe irritability.  I felt like a ticking time bomb ready to go off if someone said or did something to trigger me.  It was rare if I didn’t wake up irritated and frustrated.

 

But these intense feelings I felt were the result of what was going on inside of me, creating perpetual stress.    

 

On an unconscious level I was attached to anger, frustration, fear and sadness to many people without realizing it.   

 

This was because at different points in my past I felt these people had hurt me through their words and actions. 

 

Though it was me that was still holding onto those painful experiences, because I didn’t know how to process them. 

 

Those experiences were kind of like undigested food rotting in my stomach, creating all kinds of different problems.

 

Those unprocessed negative experiences were telling my central nervous system (CNS) on an unconscious level to be in a state of fight or flight all the time, causing me to feel terrible.  

 

This made it very hard for me to relax and feel comfortable with myself and others. 

 

Physically, this affected my sleep, digestion and caused my body to feel tense and tight all the time.

 

At the time, I had no idea that I was still being affected from past experiences until I did this….

 

Quieted my mind and listened through meditation. 

 

When I first began meditating at age 20yrs old, I had a flood of negative feelings, thoughts and images arise to my consciousness.  It was quite scary and intimidating at first.  

 

But, I quickly learned an EXERCISE (listen to it below) that was centred around focusing on loving myself and other people. 

 

This powerful exercise helped me process the painful experiences, so I could finally overcome the pain they were causing me. 

 

It helped me to realize that I needed to forgive the people that hurt me and send love to them (including myself). 

 

All the negative feelings I was creating on a day to day basis were creating so much tension in my body that they were continually creating a toxic state for myself. 

 

As a result the physical, mental and emotional symptoms quickly resolved.

 

Clearing the stress in my mind also enhanced my intuition because it was no longer being blocked by stress and negativity.

 

When I decided to stop and observe, rather than reacted to every thought and feeling I experienced, it allowed me to create change.

 

Looking back at it now I find it amazing how simple it was to process the old emotional pain when I decided to let love in and let go. 

 

If you are anything like I was, the following Loving Kindness Exercise may be one of the most important things you do for your healing and moving forward with your life.

5 Things to Make 2019 Great!

 

Greatness doesn’t happen overnight, it’s created through regular consistent investment of your time and energy. 

 

You’re already putting your energy into things, why not direct your time and energy into things that help you to thrive.

 

Below I share 5 things I have been doing to help me increase my health and happiness and I know you will benefit from them too!

 

5 Things to Make 2019 Great

 
1. Exercise for 1hr daily. 

 

If you want to take your health to the next level exercise is the way to do it.  I have been working out, lifting weights and swimming 3-4 days per week for 2 months.  In that short amount of time I have built up more muscle mass, am physically stronger, improved my endurance and energy level, feel less stressed, and haven’t gotten a sick (in the most notorious time of year to get sick).  

 

On top of all that, I walk 1-2 hrs per day with my dogs.

 

There are so many benefits to exercise like:

 

  • Stronger lungs = more oxygen to your muscles and brain = more energy.
  • Protection from flus and colds.  Exercise increases immunoglobulins, which are proteins that help bolster your immune system and ward off infection.
  • Mental calmness - Mood-enhancing chemicals, like serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, flood your brain for a couple of hours post-exercise and for up to a day if you've competed in an endurance event, like a marathon. Stress? What stress?
  • Healthy weight - You're blasting calories, even at rest. "For every 100 calories you burn during your workout, you can expect to burn 15 calories after," Example, If you went on a three-mile run, you would torch about 300 calories, which could mean zapping an extra 45 later.
  • Healthy Heart – After every sweat session you lower your blood pressure for up to 16hrs.
  • Risk of diabetes goes down - The more you work out, the greater your sensitivity to insulin. That, in turn, lowers your blood sugar levels, reducing your risk of type 2 diabetes.
  • Physically stronger – regular exercise strengthens your muscles, bones and organs, helping to prevent weakness as you age.
  • Anti-aging – Fitness buffs have more telomeres. The DNA that bookends our chromosomes and protects them from damage, which can slow the aging process, studies show.
  • Melt away fat – After 4 weeks of regular exercise, your body ditches flab and gains muscle.  Overweight people who took part in a four-week program of moderate aerobic exercise in an Australian study reduced ab fat by 12%.  Wow, that’s fantastic!
2. Love yourself every day!

 

I have been focusing on loving myself unconditionally for the last 6yrs.

 

The benefits I have gained from this are:

  • Less stress
  • Attracted more friends into my life
  • Developed healthier relationship with family and friends.
  • Heal faster physically
  • Feel more optimistic about life.

The trick to loving yourself is to tell yourself, “I love myself unconditionally,” and allow yourself to feel the how you react to that statement.

 

Allow yourself to fully embrace the feelings created by loving yourself unconditionally.

 

The next thing, I recommend you do is ask yourself, “What do I want to do today that will help me love myself even more?”

 

Ask yourself this question in a quiet & calm place and listen to the answer your body gives back to you.

 
3. Set a goal of something you really want to do for yourself? 

 

This could be a trip, get into better shape and health, learn a new skill or make a new friend.  

 

This is not limited to one goal, set as many as you would like, but remember to take action to make them happen.

 

4. Go somewhere you have never been before.

 

This helps you get out of routine, your comfort zone and realize there’s more to life than what is going on in your world.

 

I know when I go somewhere I haven’t been before I experience a lot of unexpected happiness. This is due to growing and learning new things, which stimulates serotonin production.

 

5. Meditate on a daily basis.

 

Meditation is amazing at showing you where you could be limiting yourself.  Limits create stagnation and stagnation is the root of all imbalances: mental, emotional, spiritual and physical.

 

Therefore, by meditating you have the ability to make the unconscious conscious and see how you are affecting yourself and make the changes needed to live a fulfilling life.

 

To help align with the happier and healthier version of yourself I have created the Meditation Removing Restrictions for you.

Within Every Problem is the Solution

 

I had a realization this week, about where a part of me was living my life from.  I was living my life through a place of thinking, “I need to make more money to be happy.”  At times in the past when I would make a lot of money I would feel happy, but then other times when I thought I didn’t make enough I would feel very unhappy and stressed.  Resulting in me making bad choices for myself.

 

This unhealthy definition is not something I came up with on my own, this is a belief that many people are brainwashed with through media, other people and a lot of North American culture. 

 

The chase for wealth is a very unnatural way of living, there is so much stress associated with it because human’s have a natural instinct to always want more of whatever their goal is. 

 

One thing I have grown to understand over the years is, “Wealth is the result of my actions.” So, I if I want to be wealthy I need to do the things/actions that will produce it.  And with me being a very holistic minded person, I want to help people achieve their full potential.

 

Back to my story….

 

After having this realization, I decided to change my goal of my life by first asking myself the question, “How do I want to feel?”

 

The answer I came up with was, “Joy.”  So, I decided I am going to start living my life from a place of joy.  

 

So, my next question was, “What do I need to do to create that?”

 

The answer my soul gave me back was, “To just be.”  The answer felt peaceful, joyful and loving.

 

I then asked myself some more specific questions.

 

From a work standpoint the message I received was to share how I feel and help others pinpoint exactly what they want out of their lives.  When you know what you want then you can achieve it.

 

From a physical health standpoint I want to eat the healthiest food/diet possible for myself and do exercises and movement that make me feel good.

 

Emotionally: Be open and accepting of other people and their views, be kind and gentle on myself always. 

 

Mentally:  Accept that I don’t know everything and ask for help.

 

Spiritually:  Continually align myself with the highest form of unconditional love.

 

So, my question for you is, “Where are you living your life from?” If you’re not sure how to answer that then, “What is the most common way you feel about your life?”

 

How you feel has a direct impact on every aspect of your life such as health, relationships and finances.

 

Below I have written the steps I used to find out what was controlling my life and how I changed it into what I do want.

 

Steps to Create the Life you Desire

 

  1. Find somewhere quiet and peace, close your eyes and take 3 deep breaths.  With your eyes close bring your attention to the centre of your chest and ask yourself, “How do I feel about my life?”  The answer you receive may come back in words, feelings, or images.  Do your best to interpret the message.
  2. Ask yourself, “Why you feel this way about your life?”  Did the answer you got back feel healthy or unhealthy to you?
  3. At this time decide if you want to keep living your life in this way or are you ready to change and live your life in a better way?
  4. If you want to live your life in a better way, ask yourself (at that chest level), “How do I want my life to feel on a regular basis?”
  5. With your answer, ask yourself, “What do I need to do to live this way?”
  6. At this point you can start being more specific like asking, “What do I need to do physically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually to live this way?” Ask whatever question you would like in regards to your answer.

 

If you need extra help with changing your life to be the best version of yourself, contact me.  I would love to help you.

How to Align Yourself With Who You Really Are

 

Do you feel out of balance, unhappy, sad or depressed?  Or even worse are you struggling with a chronic health problem?

 

Do you ever wonder how you got this way?

 

Well, let me tell you how I see these problems manifest.... 

 

They are the result of being out of touch or alignment with who you truly are.  Regular reinforcement of being fearful of not trusting your gut feelings, desires and passions have created a life that you don’t like.   

 

This is because you haven’t developed yourself in the way that you want to be.  Instead you are acting like someone other than your natural self.  You are an accumulation of stress, insecurities, resistance, etc. resulting in your current state of being.    

 

Why would you ever do something like that?

 

Actually, it’s extremely common due to the society we live in, and the other reason for it is a lack of being taught how to get in touch with who you are. 

 

Think about it from day one of your birth you are born into a world where people all around you are working a job that they don’t like, think they must dress a certain way because they saw it on a magazine, tv or the internet.  So, you are being bombarded with people and their feelings and attitudes of being unhappy with not being themselves.

 

But, the biggest influence on you is your parents, siblings or whoever you grow up around.  Everything they say you take as truth and very rarely are you taught to think for yourself and choose what you want to do.  Instead you were forced to be like someone else, to fit in to prevent them from feeling embarrassed and to do things you really didn’t want to do or have no interest in.  Many times, what ends up happening is, people just think that this is the way life is and give up on their hopes and dreams.

 

No wonder it is so easy to get out of alignment with who you are.

 

But, listen it’s not too late, you still have a chance to get in touch with who you are and your needs. 

 

Reconnect With Yourself

 

To do this you must be willing to put total trust in yourself….  Are you ready to do that?

 

Some people aren’t because of old hang ups in their mind that interfere with trusting themselves.

 

If you are one of these people, here are some important questions to ask yourself:

  • Am I willing to trust myself? Yes or No
  • Am I willing to learn how to trust myself? Yes or No
  • Can I move forward from this point in my life? Yes or No

To get a Yes or No answer from these questions, close your eyes and ask each question.  Make a note of the answers you receive.  You may receive the word Yes or No, or you may get a feeling for your answer.  A Yes feeling is calming while a No answer is tensing. 

 

If you received a No to any of these questions you will likely require assistance to remove what is inhibiting you from moving into a place of trusting yourself.  This can be a variety of things, such as insecurities, which were made up at some point in your life, but through reinforcing them, they have grown and now hold a lot of power over you.

 

Your blockages to trusting yourself can be resolved in one on one Sessions with me.

If you received Yes to the questions then, you can move forward with trusting yourself. 

 

The next step into trusting yourself is asking yourself, “what do I need to do to achieve… name a specific goal you have.”  It may be overcoming an illness, relationship issue, financial issue, etc. 

 

It is best to close your eye when you ask this question and be somewhere quiet and peaceful.  Have a pen and paper handy, so you can write notes.  There may be several steps you need to take to achieve your goal.  Make sure to ask yourself if there are steps you need to take. 

 

There you go.  Now it is up to you to follow the answer you received. 

 

When you follow the answers, you received, it helps to solidify that you do trust yourself and the process then gets easier and more comfortable every time you do it.

 

Leave a comment below about your experiencing in trusting yourself or any challenges you may have with trusting yourself.
