 We are made of time and energy.
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. 23 years ago, in 2000, I started my transcendental meditation practice. 20 years ago, in 2003, I started my supplementation and nutrition program. 14 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  What better time to reflect on the relationships in your life?
And not just the romantic ones but those throughout your life and perhaps most importantly... with YOURSELF! In this podcast episode, Stephanie channels Valentine's Day energy and discusses the BEST of relationships, and how we can reflect on all the many ones we experience. >>>Listen Here  In this episode Stephanie reminds us- You Gotta Love Yourself!
What is love? It’s everything! She shares an exercise on self love you can do to reveal the parts of yourself that are hard to love. Why? The parts of ourselves that are hard to love - keep us in a state of suffering. When we learn how to love all parts of ourselves, we thrive. A prosperous life starts with loving yourself, unconditionally. You deserve it! Let’s go. >>>Listen Here  What have you done lately to nourish you?

The paradox? Letting go is exactly what we must "do". I was remined of this last year while moving to my "dream" house. Of course, along with the "dream come true", also comes the rainstorm which reveals leaks, a dryer that decided to break, backordered everything!, and all the other logistics. It's truly small stuff in comparison to life's bigger challenges. One of the ways I "trick" my mind into letting go is by asking myself the below 3 questions. Since inner peace is a way of being many of us want to experience, this exercise works quite well. 1. Do I wish to experience inner peace or conflict? Inner peace, of course! Note: Some of us still like being in conflict...it provides a distraction of sorts and gives us an excuse not to take responsibility for what is and/ or our present life situation. Some of us are in conflict and don't even know it. All have been true for me. It's part of the human condition at times. It's up to us to be aware and then make the choice again and again to accept what is. Once we do accept, all the energy we were using to "resist" is freed up and we are able think clearly and choose a better way... 2. What am I willing to do in order to experience inner peace? Be open to trying things that support a peaceful way of living. There are many things/ tools we can do/ use: books, meditation, a mentor, energy work, prayer, workshops, podcasts... I do all of this and then some :) The point is, I am willing to do what it takes to live a peaceful life. Over time, we may need more or less of these things/ tools based on what we are facing in life. More stressful times = more support. Make sense? 3. Who must I become to experience inner peace? Become a student of inner peace. Know thyself. Use the tools above. Today, right now, begin to practice: acceptance, non-judgment, non-attachment, presence, compassion... and the big one - forgiveness. EXTRA CREDIT: Enjoy the process... yes, all of it. I am always surprised at how quickly my inner state (and therefore my mind) can shift when I am willing to enjoy life. I become re-energized, enthusiastic, and see opportunity everywhere! WE GOT THIS! If you want support, email me. Namaste, Stephanie |
