Spirit

A Video That Moved Me To Tears...

I woke up today feeling a bit funky.

My root chakra was hurting (and still is), and admittedly, it took me a while to get out of bed ~ I was just not feeling the motivation to greet the day. 

But as you would have it, Spirit responded, and intuitively guided me to a speech of Gabby Bernstein's that I'd never seen before. While watching this hour long talk of hers at Wanderlust Squaw Valley last year, I was moved to tears. 

Gabby is an incredible teacher, hands down. In this lecture, she shares emotional moments of her journey, and really gets vulnerable. I just couldn't not share this video with you, because it really reminded me of the light today. 

Yes I can feel funky, and yes I will. (The teachings of the Dark Goddess remind us that, that is totally OK and part of the process) But the Light is our source, and that's where we always want to return to.  That's where we always will return to. 

This video reminded me of how much Spirit loves me, and how great the work we are here to do is. I ask that you take an hour out of your day today to watch it, and connect with the wisdom that comes through this fierce woman.


I'm so excited to see her speak for my first time live, this Monday in Victoria, BC. If you're on the coast, I invite you to join me ~ she's also speaking in Vancouver. Get details here. 

Lots of love to you all! May you be well,

3 Steps to Becoming the Healer You Are

In my work, I constantly am connecting with young women who just want to be of service. Us young, awakened women are rather intelligent, and emotionally and spiritually in tune.

We know better than to chase what the rest of the world seems to be enthralled by. Yes, lots of money would be nice. A flawless complexion, yeah that could be pretty cool, but not necessary. Looking good in the eyes of your peers? Fleeting. 

 

Us awakened women are looking for more. Much more.

 

We are looking for the reason why we are here. On planet earth. And though we can get caught up with the rest of the world, ultimately, we always come back to that place - How can I be of service? Why am I here? How can I give my gifts to the world?

But much of the time, we are a little bit perplexed on how to give what we’ve got to the world. We can either lack confidence, or even direction. Many of my clients really want to feel like they are on the right path, but they have no idea what that path is. 

And so I will break it down for you, easy peasy, by giving you 3 steps to bring your life purpose into your life in a very significant way. It is very possible to live life in a way that you know you are doing what you came here to do. Here’s how to access that feeling:

 


1. Ask for Clear Guidance 

Of course. You knew it was coming. Ask for help ya’ll! If you’re confused about what your gifts are, and how you can be of most service, then ASK! Ask Spirit, your angels, the faeries, Kali, Buddha, Jesus, whoever you vibe with most - for help! This can be done as easily as saying something like “Angels, I need your help. Please guide me to understand what my gifts are and how I can best use them. Please answer me clearly, in a way I can easily understand! Thank you!”

The trick with this is to ask everyday, many times a day, if you can. For whatever reason, amping up how often you ask, usually amps up the results you get back.

So make it your practice to ask for clear guidance every single day. This is something I do about 30-50 times a day. I ask my body what it wants to eat, I ask the angels what they want me to do, I ask like a crazy person. (Because I am a crazy person. And I like it :D)

 

2. Listen

These steps are super simple, yes I am aware. But you wouldn’t believe how many people come to me for guidance that are simply not taking the time to listen to their own inner selves! Many many. And I love you all. But please my sweet ones, carve out some time to meditate or to be in nature all on your own. You will discover an entire world of knowledge and wisdom before you. 

Once you have asked, your signs can come in many ways. Through people, through songs, through synchronicities. So please listen to what happens in your daily life. Pay attention. To the small things, you may have missed before. 

When you make time to get quiet, listen to a guided meditation, hug a tree, or whatever else embodies the energy of listening for you - you are going to get answers. 

These answers may not strike you in the exact moment. Meaning, you might not receive your answer through shouting EUREKA deep in the forest as your exact life purpose comes to you in a shiny sparkly vision. (Or you may, who knows)

The answers might come to you later, after meditation. When we’re in meditation we’re allowing Source to enter deep into our subconscious mind, and sometimes we don’t actually receive the transmission until it comes out organically later on that day or week. 

With this step, consistency is important as well. I suggest meditating at least 3x a week. I personally meditate every day, at least once. Download some guided meditations. They’ll help a lot and make it more fun. I love Gabby Bernstein's. I’m also coming out with my own meditation album within the next few weeks. FINALLY! I’ll let you know when it’s coming out if you sign up with your e-mail below. When you do that, I'll also send you a few meditations to get your started. 

 

3. Act on the Guidance You Receive

OK OK I know. These steps are just so simple. And you’ve probably heard them before. But that’s because they work! I promise if you follow the guidance of ASKING, LISTENING, and ACTING, you will be in the experience of being the healer, the teacher, or the creator that you want to be, sooner than you could have imagined.

This step involves you acting on the inner guidance that came when you listened. Now to be clear, the guidance may not be something you can see will help your dreams come true. Act on it anyway. 

Ex. You may want to be an energy healer, and your inner guidance tells you to sign up for an ecstatic dance workshop. Or to go to your local cafe that morning. Or to call a friend you haven’t heard from in a while. 

All of these bits are parts of your path, parts of your process. You could completely open up your heart chakra in that workshop, and be a more powerful healer because of it. You could see a poster at that cafe for a women’s circle that will be a game changer for you. That friend might be in need of an energy boost, which you can offer to her as a gift, while getting practice for your expression of healing. 

You never know! Just follow the guidance, and see what happens! If you need help understanding what your inner guidance is saying, follow these 2 rules of thumb: 1) Inner guidance feels good, no matter what. 2) Inner guidance is repetitive, so if you miss a sign, don't worry, it will come back!

As with the ones above, this step needs consistency. If you ask, listen, and act on your inner guidance every day for a week, your life will be changed. Every day for 3 months, and you will have expanded deeply. Every day for a year and you will be a powerful healer and guide for those who you wish to touch.

5 Ways to Start Your Morning Off Right

I know a lot of spiritual teachers recommend that we start our mornings off with the same routine everyday, whether that be 5 minutes of meditation, or a certain ritual. I like the idea, but I've never been one for routines. For example, what if I had a solid routine that involved 10 minutes of gratitude journaling, but when I woke my eyes, I just couldn't wait to get out of bed and go for a beach run? Am I going to simmer myself down with the gratitude write, just because I'm 'supposed to'. Heck no. I'm off running. But that's just me. 

So my 'routine' in the morning is simply to honour + acknowledge the new day in some way. Much of the time, when I open my eyes, I simply say 'Hi Spirit!'. But I've also discovered a host of different ways I can start the morning off right, and while, again, I'm not one to repeat the same morning ritual over and over, I'll always do something that reminds me that everyday is sacred - there's nothing quite like the moment when you open your eyes to a new one. 

Here are some of my favourite ways to honour the morning:

1. Prayer

This one is a constant for me. From a simple, yet powerful prayer from A Course in Miracles that goes: "Where would you have me go? What would you have me do? What would you have me say? And to whom?" to a prayer specific for your day like "Angels, thank you for guiding me through my interview, and ensuring that I speak from the heart, and connect with the people around me", prayer can alter your mood and the course of your day significantly.

Sometimes I like to spend a good 15-20 minutes in constant prayer before I get out of bed. I love when I do this, it has a tangible, magical, and undeniably peaceful effect on my whole being. 

 

2. Green Juice

Green Juice has become a bit of a trend these days, but for good reason. If you've ever experienced a good, organic green juice on an empty stomach, you'll know what I'm talking about! Green Juice alkalizes the body, delivering key nutrition to your cells instantly, without asking your body to output energy to digest. The buzz from a green juice first thing has a profound effect on your mood + energy levels. It is a GREAT way to get going. 

Eating before consuming a green juice isn't a good idea, as it might cause stomach cramping and kind of negates the positive effects of green juice in the first place. This is because your body is already working to digest the food in your stomach, and the digestive enzymes are flowing. Green juice doesn't have fibre, so it doesn't need to be digested. Again, drink it on an empty stomach, and it's like a shot of chlorphyll directly to your blood stream. No work needed. Just benefits to be had.

If you don't have a juicer, no worries. This is what I do: Simply throw your greens (kale, spinach, etc) with a citrus fruit (orange, lemon) into a blender, pour at least 2 cups of water over it. Blend. Strain through a strainer, cheesecloth, or a nut mylk bag. 

 

3. Movement

Your body has been snoozing all night. When I take the time to do a bit of yoga or dance first thing in the morning, it's amazing at all the little crackles that my spine emits as it comes back into alignment and openness. I usually just do something like 5 sun salutations, and have a few minute dance party - nothing too crazy. :) Just enough to get my spine and muscles woken up, so the energy is flowing, and I have more focus for my day!

 

4. Wake Up Slow

When you don't have to rush off to work (which I never do... big gratitude to entrepreneurship!) it can be nice to simply lie in bed, and wake up slow - especially after you've just woken up from some nice feeling dreams. Daze off back to sleep, meditate, enjoy being cozy. It feels so good. If when you do this, you feel guilt (as I once did) - it's a sign that you're not letting yourself relax, and it's a good idea to breathe through it, and ask for help from your angels. You might also be picking up on the hectic energy of the world around you, so shield yourself with some nice pink or bright blue light (through visualization) - and see if that helps.

 

5. Dream Journal

One of the absolute best ways to recall your dreams is to get into the practice of dream journalling - but this isn't the only bonus. Often, when we write down our dreams, we have a much easier time deciphering what they're trying to tell us.

When you write them down, pay attention to the specific wording you use, and the details you chose to jot down. Reread what you wrote, asking your dream guides for help in interpreting the messages accurately. Do this at least a few times, and you'll be amazed at the information that can be accessed through the dreamtime. The lessons you learn will likely affect your waking life profoundly.
