The Power of Commitment In Our Life

The Power of Commitment In Our Life

Relationships
What's your level of commitment in life? Do you jump in when you commit to something and are ready to go, ready to see it through? No doubts, no resistance, just let's get it done or let's meet, let's do this. Or are you a reluctant one? Are you more on the side of caution and you hold back and you say "I'll try and be there. I'll try and get this project done. I'll see if I can find the time for it" by putting off the commitment. When we say the word try, it just takes the power out because it's really setting us up for failure. When we can just stand up and say "Yes, I will get this done. Yes, I'm committed, I'm going to see…

When Struggling In Life Do We Rise Up or Give Up?

When Struggling In Life Do We Rise Up or Give Up?

Healing, Lifestyle, Relationships
I've been quiet for a while, moving through my own struggles in life. I was living with swelling and pain in my body, have been working it through and learned a lot. I'm on the other side of it now, recovering nicely. Quite thankful on that, but it did make me aware of a lot I had not dealt with. We think that we've looked at everything and healer type people are supposed to be perfect and always healthy. Well, gosh, every one of us has Stuff! Anyone who tells you they've dealt with everything and everything's just fine. Okay, well, they can see. I hope they have, and I hope they are, but there can be some speed bumps come up that you don't expect. Like for me, this…

Are Some People Pests In Your Life?

Are Some People Pests In Your Life?

Nature
Today’s adventure involved wandering outside to check on the tomato plants we've been growing this summer. We have been enjoying having fresh tomatoes and some cucumbers. I was out having a look and noticed some branches getting a bit black on the edges. I thought “Something's going on” and started trimming off a little bit of a few branches on one plant. I was working away trimming, no big deal, but then started to notice a few little tomatoes had been chopped in half and eaten. I got a little more suspicious. As I was going along, I reached for another branch and touched underneath. It felt weird, it felt different and felt soft and puffy. So, I bent down and looked and there was this big giant, creepy hornworm.…

Going Through A Soggy Patch

Going Through A Soggy Patch

Lifestyle
I had an unfortune barefoot experience when I stepped on a soggy patch of carpet in our home. At first my inner warning bell went off as I looked around to see where the heck the water was coming from. If you’ve experienced a water leak, the first reactions are to look up, around and down as your head bobs in search of the trouble. We have a cat so my first thought was “Did she create this mess?” No. When I bent down to investigate further, the water smelled clean and felt a bit slippery on my fingers. The plot thickened. Hmm, my eyes slowly looked up at the half-wall of kitchen cabinets in front of me, where the kitchen sink and dishwasher are enclosed. Next began the process…

Strong Women Are Valuable

Strong Women Are Valuable

Lifestyle, Relationships
Strong women are valuable because they are aware of their own worth and recognize the strengths and potential of others. They communicate clearly and directly, and expect others to do the same. Women are feeling more empowered and have more authority and leadership roles. Commitment and dedication are in their nature, they follow through 100% A strong woman is quick-witted and articulate, which can be intimidating for some people, including her partner, family, and co-workers. She can quickly spot weak characters and won’t tolerate excuses. She knows that direct communication is an essential part of finding solutions to problems. Her priority is to get results, so she may seem impatient or bossy at times to get things done well and efficiently. She won’t sugarcoat things with fake smiles and compliments.…

Finding Our Purpose In Life

Finding Our Purpose In Life

Lifestyle, Nature, Relationships
Finding Purpose In Life - What am I here to do? As humans we often struggle with our purpose. As we try to figure out what our purpose in life is, we can get more tangled in our thoughts. Knowing what you are meant to do doesn’t come from our mind thinking and analyzing. Our spirit knows the answer but usually we are so disconnected we can’t hear that inner voice of knowing. When we stop constantly being in our heads, there are opportunities to listen and hear our own inner guidance system. Ever had the feeling when you just knew something was right to do? Those are moments when you are letting your spirit lead, not your mind and brain. Our mind is super useful at other times, but…

Is What We Believe in Life Really True?

Is What We Believe in Life Really True?

Healing, Relationships
We are taught many early truths by family, unfortunately their wisdom isn’t always best for our success. A childhood moment that strongly affected me was my father’s words after viewing my excellent report card. “98? Why didn’t you get 100?” These few words had great power, along with negative comments and events that chipped away at my self-confidence. Dad was repeating his experience as youngest in the family. As parents our job is not to break the spirit of our children, nor is it to fill their heads with delusions and expectations. When we begin adult life feeling worthless and lacking confidence, how do we believe in our self and trust others? Starting off on the wrong foot is brutal, I’ve been there. Determined to break from my father’s rule,…

Ordering Holistic Healing Energy for our Body and Getting what We Want

Ordering Holistic Healing Energy for our Body and Getting what We Want

Healing, Lifestyle
A while ago during a telephone session, a wise client said This type of work is holistic healing. It is not a matter of ordering 500 mg of energy to be applied to a specific spot. This comment makes so much sense as I encounter clients who believe they can control every aspect of their life. Holistic healing energy, Life force energy, Biofield energy healing, energy of consciousness, whatever name you choose, is beyond our little mind’s control. This intelligent healing energy knows where we need it most and the best order for our body to receive such powerful energy boosting. Are you looking to order up and get exactly what you want? This is not fast food or an instant app. You can’t order 500 ml of energy and…

Emotional Trauma may cause Pain and Suffering in our Physical Body

Emotional Trauma may cause Pain and Suffering in our Physical Body

Healing, Lifestyle, Relationships
In life we all go through good and bad times, but our accumulation of emotional trauma can really mess with our Body, Mind and Spirit. We doubt our first thoughts and hold back from acting, later realizing we could have saved pain, misery and regret. It can be an endless loop of thoughts talking us out of what we know is true, preventing us from taking action. We doubt ourselves so much that we let others lead the way when we are the very person who needs to lead! I lived this again and again, alternating between sticking my neck out to speak the truth and holding back to avoid consequences. It’s an unfortunate state to be in, fighting with yourself while your Spirit knows the truth. So what happens…

Are We Really Caring or Do We Pretend to Care?

Are We Really Caring or Do We Pretend to Care?

Healing, Lifestyle, Nature, Relationships
On a trip home from Ottawa, an experience reminded me of the importance of caring. My husband and I had stopped at a comfort station along highway 401 near Toronto. It was a busy Sunday evening with lots of traffic, so lots of people in the restaurants and bathrooms. Upon entering the washroom area, a loud sound of rushing water came roaring all the way down the long row of bathroom stalls. I couldn’t tell where the water noise was coming from but it sounded like a toilet stuck in flush mode. Maintaining our clean water supply is important, so I naturally started looking for the cause. As I walked by each stall it became clear the culprit was the end toilet. I looked in and saw gallons of water…

3 Healing ways for Seeing the Truth and Letting Go

Healing, Lifestyle, Nature, Relationships
As we move through life it's incredible how often we are tested and struggle with trying to assist or simply letting go. The truth is we can create more problems by jumping in and trying to help out, take it from me. Especially with the folks we care about, our children, our partner, our parents, friends and clients. I was always willing to jump in and help but I have finally learned a huge lesson. You can never fix what people aren't willing to change No matter how much we desire to help another person, the choice to take action or not will always be with them. Here are three ways I determine how much a person with problems, issues or complaints really wants to improve. 1. Are they taking responsibility for their part in problems? Or…

Simply Speak Truth, It’s Better For All

Simply Speak Truth, It’s Better For All

Healing, Lifestyle, Relationships
I recently learned the meaning of a S*** Sandwich! OK call me naive (my kids often do) but I hadn’t heard the term before. A dear friend and client explained it to me the other day and I laughed so hard!! Many awkward situations I’ve experienced suddenly made sense! Times when people were saying nice things to me and yet it felt fake and untrue. They were not being genuine, unable to express their feelings and speak truth. Hearing that people actually plan how they will say the unpopular truth by wrapping it in something nice before and after - OMG seriously?! Say it Directly and Speak Truth, it's Better for All Adding a fake wrapper before and after doesn’t feel good for anyone, it actually feels like crap! Many…
