When was the last time you took inventory of your heart?

I’m reading an article on growth at the moment. I thought I would share.

We are often advised to look after our physical hearts by exercising and eating good fats. Not too often are we reminded to take care of our emotional heart. Yes our emotional heart!!! You know, That part of us that can feel hurt so deeply, in fact excruciating pain, causes us to vomit like something has to get out, brings tears to the eyes and leaves us with deep questions. It can often side track us for quite some time, months and even years. So deep is the pain we can often recall it, in a moment, in an instance years after the event.

Eradicating bad feelings and emotional hurt takes practice, time and patience. Hurts can accumulate and grab us by the neck in an unexpected way until we take notice.

If someone has hurt you learn to forgive. This doesn’t mean you’ll forget all together but whilst you keep brooding about it that person has moved on and you thinking about them doesn’t impact them at all. All we do is rekindle the old hurts.

Love your heart in a special way, do something that makes your heart glad and your soul sing, do it often. Give it some fertiliser and a good old pruning. Get rid of weeds and old roots.

My mantra for the last 3-5 years has been ‘Everyday in every way my life gets better and better’. I’ve now added to this line ‘Everyday in every way my heart gets better and better’. It’s a thing of beauty, a fine piece of engineering, delicate and precious. It’s served me well and I no longer allow anyone to steel my joy.

Have a think about it and reclaim your emotional heart, love it and care for it. It’s one life, live it, cherish it and live it well.

Stay blessed peeps x

Know that Nothing is impossible!

I am 56 years young and I know that my very best years are ahead of me.

The last 3 years I have seen exponential personal growth in me.

I’m investing in me in exactly the same way I’ve invested time, energy and money in everyone else, it’s my turn now.

For me …

QSCA with Christy Whitman (became a certified life coach).

Feminine Power – Claire Zammit, (needed to unleash my feminine power).

Abundance Now – Lisa Nichols.

I KNOW that nothing is impossible for God and the universe. I’ve asked, I’ve believed and I am receiving. When I was told a couple of years ago to be ready for the delivery and be ready to sign for it. I shifted up a couple of gears.

‘Show up in the potentiality of your future’ ‘Be that women now’ Embody it now’ ! (Thank You Claire Zammit).

So I started to re think it through, dream it, write it down and feel it, send out the vibe and wait for the timing and rendezvous. Too early and you don’t know what to do with it. The right time and voila! There it is, everything in sync just as it should be.

The right people just pop up at the right time, the right tribe, all supporting and sharing.

Don’t give up peeps because …

#Its never too late

#Work in progress

#Epic adventure

Go get yours and if you need some help to navigate, give me a call.

Too good to keep it to myself.

Have a super blessed day xxx

And sharing my latest picture, drum roll please … Ta dah!!!!

Pretty good ain’t it …. LOL. Loving it.

Stay the course even when the odds are against you.

So this evening sports history was made. Tiger Woods is back. He is again the Masters golf champion for the 5th time.

He said he kept the focus and presence. Keeping his emotions in check and being in the moment. He hasn’t won a championship for some 14 years nor a green jacket for 20 years.

During that time most of the sponsors fell away, the newspaper and social media mocked him. He experienced a point of deep shame. But today with his skills, his gifts, master time, personal commitment, practice and persistence he roared home to success. Hugging his son as a father in the same way that his father hugged him after many championship when he was alive.

What lessons to learn and draw from this? love him or not, I’ve got to salute The Tiger, who stayed the course, remained dedicated and blocked out the noise.

It’s only over when you say it is.

Remember …. It’s NEVER too late.

Happy People Don’t Have Dead Grass!

 

I was watching a film over the weekend and the main character’s sister became obsessed with her dry front yard.  Every day as she pulled up in the car her heart would sink because of this yard.  She would often snap at her husband yelling ‘have you seen the yard? It’s dry, why don’t you ever water the yard?’  He had the answer,  it was winter everyone’s yard looked dry or dead in the winter time. She mused on this and in the spring she asked the same question.  This time it wasn’t winter and the grass in the yard looked dead. If you want the grass watered why don’t you do it yourself ? !!!!!  Not quite the answer she was looking to hear, but if you get where this is going he was absolutely right.

You see in this life we are the keeper of your own ‘grass’, your heart, your soul, your being.  It is our responsibility to feed our grass in a special way and pay attention to what makes us happy in this life.

We should,  in fact we MUST be the custodian of our very own happiness.  We must do the things that fill our souls with joy, bring out the inner child and make us smile broadly and laugh out loud just because.

Each and every day we must treat ourselves as if our lives are golden.  We must find and understand the value and purpose for our lives. We often complain about the rain but without rain nothing would grow.  Without the rain there would be no fertile soil.  We often need a good old soak and wash, water cleanses so many things. Having compassion and appreciation for our selves is paramount in this life. 

Know how to support you. Your values, your self worth, your self esteem, your integrity.  Give yourself a big old hug often, make it tight and heart filled.  If we understand this premise and give ourselves the best, it teaches other’s how to treat you too.

The moral of the story …. at the ending of the film my girl took to watering her yard each and everyday.  She had no idea that something as simple as watching water flow, hearing the sound, feeling the cold drips upon her  skin could be so refreshing and give so much pleasure.  In no time at all, the grass grew lush, green and pretty.  It made her smile, it lifted her spirts. She quickly realised that sometimes you literally have to take things into your own hands.  Make a decision and take action.  It’s not up to others, like your partner to make you happy. They can enhance your happiness, they can add to your happiness, they can bring out what you already have however, they are not solely responsible for your entire happiness.  And to be honest it’s a great big ask of someone in the first place and secondly then to hold them accountable for our happiness especially when we don’t ourselves know what happiness looks like for us.

So know what makes you tick, know what makes you truly happy and get a little of it on the regular.

Make this day a day to you from you.
