 We are meant to experience vibrant health, peace, prosperity, and connection. Whether that’s through improving relationships, enhancing our health and well-being, discovering a new career, increasing our monetary wealth, or connecting with our spirituality and life purpose, we are worthy, deserving and it's POSSIBLE.
Throughout the decades voraciously reading everything from yoga texts, to business books, and everything in between, I learned a most valuable piece of wisdom that helps me manifest what I say I want. The wisdom: every obstacle is an opportunity for greater benefit. The key to activating and applying this wisdom consistently over time lies in our mindset. Our mindset is either operating from lack (what's wrong) or abundance (what's right). The difference determines whether or not we will achieve our goals and dreams. Are you ready to transform your mindset & your life? If YES, let me know here.  Stephanie (on right) in post massage bliss after a 90 Minute BWS signature massage with Mercedes. "Transformation is through the body, not away from it. This is why no true master has ever advocating fighting or leaving the body, although their mind-based followers often have." -Eckhart Tolle
Previously I have written about the difference between knowledge and knowing. I shared my experience with Eckhart Tolle and how the only true way to "know" something, is to experience it. What are you noticing...knowing? This week I encourage you to become curious about what and how your physical body is trying to communicate with you. Our physical body is a portal to what is really happening deep within. By deep within I mean beyond the mind and it's thoughts/story/narrative. For example, ever notice how physical pain causes us to "do" something when it no longer becomes tolerable? The moment we feel "we have had enough of feeling sick/tired/achy/lonely" (i.e.: suffering) we can decide it's time to make a change. Time for transformation!!! Perhaps we decide to become conscious of our food habits and choose to eat better. Or, maybe it's time to lace up those sneakers and exercise. For some it's time to ease up on the physical body and get a massage or finally try yoga, etc. And still for others there's a sense of the inner body that feels "off". Anxious, afraid, alone...endless cycle of emotional up and down. Why does connecting with the body matter? From a practical sense, we need it in order to live so why not take care of it the best we can? On a deeper level, the physical body is a powerful doorway to access wisdom and therefore transformation. Can't change what you don't know/want to know :) Perhaps most importantly, the body is the vehicle we have been gifted with to transmit the song of our soul. While some wisdom traditions may teach denying the body and/or ignoring the body, in my experience, it is the exact opposite. We must pay attention, listen, learn, respect, and celebrate the body. Then we must apply these lessons in the form of action. How do we access the physical body, in a deeper sense? It varies. One thread runs through all of it and that is the practice of presence...awareness. A.K.A - paying attention. Some of us pay attention quite naturally and either choose to take action or not. Doing nothing is also a choice :) Others of us engage in movement practices - yoga/running/walking outside/dance... to help us get in touch/feel the inner body. And still others rely on meditation, massage, energy healing, and soul work to assist in bringing us into deeper awareness. There's no right or wrong way. And the "way" may change over time as you change. Nothing is permanent in this world of form. Ha! As I say-- the only "wrong" way to meditate is simply to not do it all. And so it is with life and dealing with change. We will either consciously choose to listen to our body or not. Regardless, life / transformation happens anyway. We can embrace it (peaceful path) or fight it (suffering path). I don't know about you. I rather the peaceful path. Namaste, Stephanie  We are made of time and energy.
Who cares? Well...time is the only commodity we don't get back. And...energy is our #1 asset. Creating and committing to healthy habits helps us manage our energy and speeds up the time it takes to manifest our burning desires! Healthy habits help us stay the course. When I reflect on my life, I have 3 long standing habits that I attribute to my life getting better and better every year. 25 years ago, in 2000, I started my transcendental meditation practice. 22 years ago, in 2003, I started my supplementation and nutrition program. 16 years ago, in 2009, I started my Bikram Yoga practice. These habits are the foundation for my healthy body, mind, and spirit. Instead of making excuses, we can invest in habits. What are yours? Do you need to drop some? Add some? In this podcast episode I share more of my favorite habits for body, mind, and, spirit & give examples of how and why healthy habits are essential for bringing forth your burning desire. You deserve to live the life you desire. Believe it. See it. Feel it. Act on it. >>>Listen Here  The untamed mind is a dangerous place.
Today in less than 2 hours I spoke with 2 separate people about the suicide of their friends, both males, with family, in their 50's. I had to write. While I am not a therapist, the main reason people *initially come to me for energy healing, coaching or meditation is pretty much the same. Symptoms: unhappiness, addictions, confusion, disconnection, loneliness, stress, restless negative mind, lacking purpose, to name a few. I say *initially because when people stick with our program in addition to doing the daily work at home, they come through on the other side: joy, clarity, peace, connection, health, disciplined mind, clear on purpose, etc. I am sharing this because we all know people who are suffering, and sometimes the person is us. There are infinite resources available. It's up to us to take ACTION & get help and also share these resources with others. Often when we share with others we feel better too. Nothing changes without CONSISTENT ACTION. Remember: Checking in on people is important. I have several people I text with daily to check in. What one action can you take right now for yourself or someone else to support positive mental and emotional change?
