This simple, half deflated, star balloon, reminde This simple, half deflated, star balloon, reminded me how loved, guided, and supported I am. As I practice living with intention I’m always looking for signs and ways to communicate with my spirit guides and universal support system. . The other day this balloon was stuck up in our ceiling. Bruce was very confused because we often have regular balloons around to play. He was amazed by the shining, floating, star. . A day later I went up to rest in my bedroom and the balloon had started dropping. It was gently floating along the floor of my bedroom and went into my master bathroom, then continued into my closet. I thought playfully, “show me you are here, this balloon will be by my head when I wake up”. . Rolled over an hour or so later, and…. there was a blue, star, balloon resting on the pillow Bexley uses when she comes into our bed early each morning! . Asking for small signs is a great way to reaffirm your intuitive connection. It’s like exercising a muscle, or small talk when building a friendship. Keeping that line of communication open and reminding yourself of your belonging. . What kind of signs do you see all around?
When we heal ourselves, we heal the world. It’s When we heal ourselves, we heal the world. It’s World Mental Health Day and as someone who spent the entirety of my quarantine year tucked away healing, I can’t help but share… I was blessed to be given a year to be home with my kids and have the time and access to be able to explore many different paths to healing that all lead me to “go inside myself”. . I started with Tapping, aka EFT (emotional freedom technique). I did an intensive 5 week womb clearing with a psychic healer, went deep into my soul and worked through trauma with my inner child. I’ve started studying neuroscience, I activated my reiki healing, started working with moon magic, and connecting to the Akashic Records. I studied my human design and my astrology chart. I’ve never felt more supported than I do now. Still listening, still learning, and eager to share so others may find their peace. . Mental health can look like so many things. Stress, depression, overwhelm, exhaustion, unbalance jealousy, anger, lack of boundaries, anxiety, addiction… the list goes on and on. After all my explorations to heal my own mental health I can say with absolute certainty all health issues, mental and physical, stem from trauma. Not all trauma is big. Not all trauma is even recognizable to our conscious being. Trauma is nothing to glorify or be embarrassed of. Going inside yourself is THE ONLY WAY to heal. Medication can be a necessary support needed to get you balanced so you can get to a point where this healing is possible. Medicine has advanced in some really incredible ways. However, many of the things we treat as if it’s a standalone problem with medication is actually a symptom of something else that will end up untreated. . I’m so passionate about mental wellness. The more people who find peace, the more peaceful the world will be for my children. If I hadn’t felt the feelings, moved through the ick, and cleared the trauma, I wouldn’t have been able to see the bigger picture of my lifetime. Everything I’ve experienced is so I can share. There is a gift in every challenge we face. . If you are struggling, know you are not alone. Healing is possible. Healing is hard AF. Healing is the WHY we are here.
Wish. Dream. Prayer. Blessing. Manifestation. Spel Wish. Dream. Prayer. Blessing. Manifestation. Spell… LOVE & MAGIC! Wishes are usually related to something we feel is unattainable or outside our reality. Currently my children use the word wish, so their wishes come true and nothing seems outside their magic. Dreams usually are long term goals. You can visualize them. You know they could happen, but not everyone can take action when something feels so far away. Prayers are tricky… most people pray wrong, or in a way their needs are not supported. Many are taught to beg to their God for forgiveness and blessings in a lack mindset. By begging, the prayer is spoken into a frequency of little to no self worth. I could go on and on, but if you like to pray, and I do in certain occasions, it’s important to remember that all Gods are on a frequency of love. Pray with the knowing that God loves you and will do what is best for your highest good. All ways. Always. Blessings are transfers or confirmations of love energy. Something can be blessed by a divine spirit/love/energy or with a specific energetic purpose like protection or health, wrapped in a gift of love. Manifestation is the recognition that prayer, dreams, wishes, need action. In order to manifest anything big or small, a love for yourself is necessary, working out trauma and understanding your subconscious energy. Manifestation has become trendy, and can breed a toxic positivity. Some things are just meant to be your experience in this life. Your attitude during these challenges will shift your frequency to receive more tests or an up level. I have to say, the up levels are so worth the work! A spell. A spoken word or form of words to have magic power. I’ve recently started using spell magic. It’s been such an enlightening experience. Magic is used through the eyes, hands, and soul of the spell worker. It can work however the caster wants it to within the realms of our reality. Reiki, affirmations, meditation, essential oils, teas, are all ways we use spell magic in everyday life, we just leave out the power it could have... Imagine if you put intention into everything you did? How could you shift your energy? How could you affect those around you?
20 years. I remember every moment of that day. One 20 years. I remember every moment of that day. One month later I would move there to be with my now husband, who was already there. One of the first places we visited in the city was ground zero. I still can’t speak about it today without crying. My body and soul won’t let me forget the energy of that time and space. I don’t think I want it to… It’s still so vivid in my mind, the pictures of the missing, the art children made for the loved ones they lost, people’s possessions laying all over in respect for their life, taken too soon. Today, I send love to us all. We were all impacted in some way 20 years ago today. I say a blessing for those taken & for those that they were taken from. Image @hnicholsillustration
It’s suicide awareness month. In this lifetime I It’s suicide awareness month. In this lifetime I’ve intervened in 2 lives contemplating/attempting suicide. In my sophomore year I was the only one to react to a friend who vocalized a threat. It made me the bad guy. I carried that honor because my very best friend was still alive. Our friendship didn’t survive much longer but she did. The second time was during a more violent display in my workplace. I was one of 2 people who, in the moment, were able to be calm and collected to prevent serious injury. . I’ve had thoughts of suicide myself in my teen years. I remember sobbing, barely able to breathe, not understanding the point. Why God would choose this for me? I see the bigger existence now. Every day I’m so grateful I was more afraid of death than the pain of life. So, fucking, grateful it didn’t turn into ideation. I feel immense gratitude that these feelings of desperation didn’t return when I struggled with PPD and PPA. The highest risk of suicide is 9 - 12 months postpartum. I’m no expert on suicide, but what I do know, when someone is at their breaking point they aren’t looking for attention, they are looking for help. They need help badly. Listen to them. If they get mad or offended, who cares!? They are still alive and getting the help they needed, even if they couldn’t admit it in the moment. I have also seen what the loss of someone special to suicide can do to those who were closest. It leaves a big wake. So many unanswered questions. Guilt. Shame. Heartbreak. We must really listen to each other’s pain. We must hold space for people’s emotions. We must practice feeling our feelings to be able to allow others to express freely without our triggers and ego preventing hearing what they’re really saying… @suicidepreventionhotline 800.273.8255
The inner war for my mind’s freedom is still str The inner war for my mind’s freedom is still strong. While I have learned so many tools to practice for my healing that I didn’t have a year ago it’s still a daily tug and pull. I know I need to let me be me, but the Ego is so strong. I started sharing here with intent of expressing the love of my creative passion of fashion and beauty when I entered motherhood almost 8 years ago. I wanted to inspire other moms to feel good, even just a little, when they are struggling navigating new motherhood like I was. Soon after I started this account my Ego took over. My need to feel seen and validated became a quest for followers, likes, and money. That gave my Ego a desire to be popular. I’ve never been popular before and it’s always looked awesome. I was sharing things I knew moms needed and truly had budget and mind-space for instead of the things I really loved. I wanted to give my audience what they needed and would copy what the other girls were doing. I forgot about myself. This is MY creative outlet. . Then the miscarriage came. PPA and PPD took over my mind and body so all I had left was my broken soul. I didn’t realize I could be suffering from these after a miscarriage and it wasn’t until I got pregnant with Bruce, it all became so clear. The anger, frustration, sensitivity to everyone and everything came into focus. Trauma I had protected myself from for so long bubbled to the surface. It was impossible to look away again. It’s no way to live. . I’ve learned so much about myself while so much still remains a mystery. The struggle of knowing how to continue with my creative outlet I love so much still lives in my head every day. The fear my Ego will take over again. I’ll be back to posting and sharing what my heart is called to share, not what I think you want to see. I’ll be revealing every vulnerability while still reminding you how incredibly powerful you are too. I’ll be making an effort to leave ego at the door to truly enjoy this community and expression of self as I originally intended. . I’ll be revealing layer, by layer, the authentic me. The woman I am and the message that is my purpose. We’ll get to know her and grow to love her together.
It’s #pumpkinspicelatte Day!!!! I count down to It’s #pumpkinspicelatte Day!!!! I count down to this day every year.
