Create the Blue Print for any area of Your Life!

What I know today is that I was inspired to write last week about creating and remodelling your life.  We get too busy with life and forget that we really can have what we want, but we need to take the time to slow down and ask ourselves what it is that we really want?

From what I see with most people is that they don't take the time to figure out what it is that they really  want/need.  Where they are right now is something they wanted at one time in their life, but now it feels stagnant and maybe even depressing.  Sound familiar?  Most people are too busy keeping themselves busy, in a comfort zone of familiarity or living for others, that they don't even know who they are or what fulfills them anymore.

What if you actually started to pay attention to you?  What if you started to think about what makes you happy, what makes you feel full of life?  Do you need to remodel or rebuild an area of your life?  Relationship?  Career?  Finances?  Health?

This is the way I see it.  Your home started out as a picture in someone's mind.  Think of it like an idea in the planners mind, the next step to making it happen or come true is to create a blue print.  So the building your are in or your home then got taken from an idea to being drawn as a blue print onto paper.  The blue print is the second step to manifestation (making it happen).  The third is actually building it.  Gathering the materials and turning it into a reality.

As you start to create this remodelled area in your life, realize that the more time you spend with it, the more ideas will come.  Sometimes you need to tweak things here and there.  As you go along you will get more specific about how you want it to look.  It will start to unfold like a story, you are creating the story of your life.  The beauty with life is that you can change it as you go along.  

Where to start?  Your life is out there waiting to come to you, but first you must go inside of yourself and ask what it is that you even want?

Please understand that with life and creating, getting what you want is a process and doesn't always come in an instant!  The problem is, most of us don't even take the time to do any planning or thinking because we aren't even aware that in truth WE are the creators of our life.  We have free will because we are meant to create our lives!  Instead most of us just let life happen to us thinking this is the way it is and that it will always be this way!

Not true, but it all starts with you.  No one else can do this for you - well they could but I can tell you that you probably won't like it!  Maybe you already know what this feels like, because it is what you have been doing to now?

Of course as you start creating your new desires, it doesn't have to be in stone, you are allowed to change your mind!!  That is the beauty of life, try a little of this and a little of that!  Explore and have fun with it.

As you start to go inside of yourself and ask questions the answers will start to surface.  What is extremely important with creating change, is that you stay focused on what you want.  Let go of what you currently have or don't like about your current situation.  You want to steer your thoughts to what you want to draw more of into your life.  Look ahead to where you want to be, let go of looking back because that will keep you stuck!

If you haven't already done so, make a decision right now to pick an area you want to improve.  Relationship, Career, Health, Finances.  Did you pick one?  Ok!  Next start asking questions!

If I could have this area of my life any way I choose and money was no object, how would I like to see it?  Dream it and dream big!  Let go of what is right now, this is your chance to envision your wildest dream!  It doesn't cost a dime to dream and expand your mind to the endless possibilities.  Now keep asking yourself questions.  Questions are what open up all of the doors of possibility to you.

What would fulfill me?  What are my strengths?  What do I want?  The more details you put down, the better your 'project' will turn out.  But also be open to what comes as a result, because often things will come in ways even better than we thought and more suited to how we are!  So allow it to come even if it wasn't exactly how you thought it would.  Put all of your ideas on paper in a journal.  Spend time with it on a regular basis, allowing remodifications as you go along.

The most important step, is to play with this and have fun with it!  Life is about joy and ease.  Our children are excellent examples of this because they can be in the moment as they create and not worried about the outcome, they simply enjoy the experience as they go along!

Have fun!

Your Life - Do You need to Remodel? Maybe Just an Update?

What I know today is that as I am searching for a topic to write about, I understand that life is all about synchronicity and allowing.  I trust that I will be lead to what is needed here on this blog for today and that the material will show up!  So here is what came through!  I hope it inspires some remodelling or an update in some part of you!

I have said this many times and I will keep saying it because sometimes we need to hear it more than once and in different ways to really get it!  You create your life, and you are the only one who knows what is exactly right for you.  No one else can tell you or do it for you.  If you want a to have a  guaranteed miserable life, then let others tell you how to live it with their opinions and judgements!

There is no such thing as a coincidence only experiences.  I feel in life we try to judge the things that happen to us as right or wrong, good or bad.  But truly what if we stepped out of judgement and went into awe and openness to what life is trying to offer us?  Why must we assume that when something happens it is bringing bad things to us?  Maybe we are just being shown a better way than we were aware of?  Maybe these things happen to teach us something about who we are or to show us a different way to live.

I am not saying to just sit back and allow life to happen to you either as what might show up is likely not what you are wanting.  Too many people are doing this in the world right now.  What I mean is really know what you want in your life but be open to how it shows up.  You are the creator of your life and allowing life to just happen to you is what takes place when you don't go inside of yourself and really ask what you want, need or desire.

What I have found to be true is when you live in question you open up the doors of possibility around you.  If you think that you have the answers and that you know how your life should run, you are definitely limiting yourself!  I don't know about you but I definitely need  more ease and joy in my life, and you can never have too much of that!  EVER!

Some examples of living in question are:  When something doesn't go as planned ask the question what is right about this that I am not seeing right now?  What would it take to ___________.  What do I want?  What are my strengths?   Using my strengths, what would fulfill my deepest desires?  What would it take to live my purpose doing what I love?  What do I love to do with my time?  What would I do if money were no object?  What am I good at?  What would I like to get good at?

What would it take to live an inspired life with joy and ease?  What would it take to make a difference in the world everywhere I go?  What would it take to make a positive difference to each person my presence is around just by being me?  Next week, I will elaborate on this topic!  You create the blueprints for your life by going inside and opening up to what you need more of, once you bring it to the surface and create your blueprint, it can now become your reality...

How to Bring out the Best in You!

What I know today is that too many of us are hanging on to old friendships and relationships that are bringing us down, or that have maybe served their purpose.  Is this you?

The above quote sums it up nicely.  I have been blessed to have the ability to be a good judge of character and through the years I have had to let go of many people in my life, simply because I didn't feel good being around them anymore.  Friendships have a reason, season or lifetime.  You can look up that quote and read it, it is very good!  Everything has a purpose and we don't always know the bigger picture.  All I know is that it is important to surround ourselves with the people who bring out the best in us, as that is what will make the world to a better place.

Staying with someone who is abusive is certainly not helping you, unless of course you are able to hold your own, in the midst of it.  But remember too that there could be something about yourself that is bringing out something in them that is an insecurity.  If they are unwilling to face it and deal with it so that they can evolve or change, it may be time to move on.

Relationships are what feed and nurture your soul.  It is important to choose the people who are nurturing it, not poisoning it.  Always remember that!

There is no right or wrong here, good or bad, we are not to judge.  All we can do is choose what is right for us.  Self Care.  Life is an experience and you are the creator of that experience, simply by making choices, so do what works for you and take care of yourself.  If it doesn't feel right or good, then that is communication from your inner being guiding you to something better.  Listen to it, it is there for a reason.

Settling in life? Ideas to get more awesome in your life!

What I know today is that too many people are holding on to things that are no longer serving them or working for them!  I guess we are living from what we have observed our parents and Grandparents doing, and that is doing what we have always done because it is all we know!

There is a saying out there if you do what you've always done you will get what you've always gotten! Sometimes we need to let go of the old in order to make room for the new!  What area in your life would you like some change in?  Ask yourself what needs to go to make room for something new?
Maybe what needs to go are old ways of thinking!  It doesn't always mean getting rid of something physical in your life although I have a good example of clearing your clutter can do for you!

An example of what cleaning your closets can really do:

I wanted new clothes desperately and yet it seemed like every time I shopped I just didn't like what was out there, styles, colours, nothing!  One day I decided it was time to clean out my closet, and I must admit it was pretty full!  So I started going through it.  Clothing with tags still on - if I hadn't worn it by now I obviously wasn't going to!  Time to get rid of it!  By the time I was done I had a lot more room in my closet.  What happened next surprised me!  I went to one of my favourite stores (which I was having no luck with b/c I just wasn't liking their clothing for the past several seasons) and ended up filling a change room with stuff to try on!  I ended up going home with nearly a whole new wardrobe!  I had to create the space to make it happen...

Your Career - Are you settling?

I am having a hard time seeing people go to jobs they don't love and dreading it.  Would you go to an all you can eat buffet and eat the same old food you are literally sick of and possibly even don't like anymore?  It doesn't make sense does it?  So why are you choosing to feed your soul the same old job, boss, co-workers or tasks that you dread?  It isn't feeding, nurturing or nourishing who you are and at the same time, you are now walking around with that negative energy and spreading it to everyone you see; friends, family and yes even your kids.  You deserve to be happy and to make money doing something you love to do.  So why are you settling?  

I Want to tell you to forget about the degree, or the years of schooling or whatever.  Forget what everyone else thinks!  Maybe life is meant to be an experience and who says what the time limit is for how long you stay there?  Yes at the time you loved getting that job, but now it's time to broaden your horizons!  We are meant to live in joy, doing what we love.  All of the things we have done to this point were simply stepping stones leading us to the next great thing!

If this is you, I can't tell you how to do it, or what the right way is for you.  What is important is that you are thinking about making a change, and taking action steps to make it happen.

Doesn't it feel so much better when you are greeting by someone who is passionate and loves what they do, than having someone who is obviously not interested and doing it simply because they need the money?  Your career or job is where you spend most of your life, so why not make it something you really want to do or are extremely interested in?  The money will follow and when you are doing what you love you will be so good at it that the money will take care of itself!

Relationships - Are you settling?

How many relationships are you holding onto because of loyalty that really aren't working for you anymore?  Do the people you surround yourself with truly support and accept you for who you are?  Do they leave you feeling drained after?  Or do you feel uplifted?

Sometimes relationships clash and all it serves to do is bring out the worst in each of you.  When you have people in your life who bring out the best in you - your whole world can change.  I have made choices to let go of what wasn't working for me in my life, and the people I have in it now, are amazing and supportive, helping me achieve my dreams!  How does it get better than that?

Ask yourself, is it time to limit spending your time with someone who doesn't fully and completely support you?  Would it be nice to meet new people who are more suited for who you are today?  I think one thing people don't realize is that we are constantly changing simply because we are energy beings.  Someone we met 10 years ago was a match to who we were then, but not to who we are now.  It isn't right or wrong, good or bad, it just is.  As energy beings we are constantly changing and we all change and grow at different rates.

Holding on to things that are no longer serving us whether physical, emotional or otherwise isn't making this world a better place.  Take personal responsibility and make sure that you are doing what you love and surrounding yourself with support and love in your relationships too.

You might be doing that person a favour too, because maybe they are in need of different experiences in their relationships too to help them grow and evolve!  Let go of judgement and trust more in how you feel.  When we go with what is in our heads we can get into trouble, listen to your heart, that is what is real!  Your head can make up all sorts of crazy stuff! Do what FEELS right!

In conclusion, what area of your life do you need to release what isn't working?  It's ok, only you know what is right for you.  Believe me you will feel so much better, and when you feel better, the ripple will go out and you will take it every where you go, and this my friend is what creates a better world to live in!

Thanks for taking care of you!  In gratitude to you for allowing your evolutions via self awareness and self care!

True sympathy, what's right?

Let go with Love, and let them be free on their new journey!

What I know today is that I saw a post on FaceBook and saw someone feeling sorry for someone because their everything passed away.  She meant this genuinely I am not meaning to sound cruel here, she just isn't conscious about what she is doing by feeling sorry for them.  Think about this for a moment, if we are feeling sorry for someone how can we give them strength?  Isn't this what they need from us in order to move through and heal the pain?

When we lose a loved one the pain and emptiness can seem unbearable, yet we have no choice but to go through it, it is a part of life.  What I notice is that people seem to want to feel sorry for those who are grieving.

I recently lost my aunt whom I was very close to.  She was like a second Mother to me.  My aunt and Uncle were both important to me growing up and I feel we had a very special bond.  To see my Uncle going through this dramatic change in his life, has been difficult to see, but I made the decision that I am not going to feel sorry for him, simply because I love him and want to see him have joy in his life again.  My opinion is this, if we feel sorry for them we are not helping them move through it, we are buying into the story that it is all very sad.  There is a much bigger picture we must learn to consider.

We must look at death from a broader perspective.  Many of us don't understand what death is.  Death in truth is simply a transformation.  We are all energy.  What we know of energy is that it cannot be created or destroyed, it simply moves through form,  into form and out of form.

It is not an ending but a new beginning.  Yes change can be upsetting at first, but when you learn to trust that ALL change happens for a reason, and learn to see what good can come out of that change, we can move through life with more ease.  Confucius says it best, "Life is really simple but we insist on making it complicated."

We each have our journey and there is no such thing as a mistake or an accident.  Ever!!  There is only, growth, learning and lessons.  When our time is up, that is it, no matter what kind of experience we choose for the avenue of our transformation.  Heart attack, stroke, cancer, or an accident etc.  There are lessons and learning for everyone involved.  The ripples can go out further than we are even aware of.

How we react to death, is what creates our ability to move through the experience with ease or intense pain.  It is a choice actually through our awareness and willingness to let go or hang on.  Death is simply how we transform back to our spiritual self.    Death is not an end, it is a beginning.  This goes for everything in life.  When a job ends no matter how it happens, it is simply the end of a cycle and the beginning of a new.  See the magic and opportunity within the experience.

We may see accidents as tragic especially if our loved one seems to have left too soon or too young.  This a judgement and an opinion, and nothing more.  These judgements come from pain not truth.  When we step back and look at the bigger picture we must remember that we all have our purpose here in life and when a soul chooses to go home, it is what was right for that soul.  It isn't our journey it is theirs.   If we can remember this important piece it makes it easier to be happy for that soul and to learn that they really aren't gone they have simply changed form, like water changes to steam, they really aren't gone, we just can't see them anymore.

As a medium, I have experienced so many amazing healings and transformations in people when they get a message from their loved one.  There is life beyond death and it really is a beautiful thing.  What our loved ones can do from spirit is awe inspiring.  They can take care of their loved ones in different ways than they would have here by providing guidance and opening their loved ones to a new awareness that they otherwise may never have experienced.  All of this can happen if we aren't all too busy feeling sorry for the person left to grieve.  Instead choose to be the clarity for them as they are clouded in pain, and remind them that life will go on and healing will take place.  That there is a new angel watching over them bringing more ease into their life, even if they can't see it yet!

I have personally experienced this through my Aunts passing.  She has given specific signs for each person and the messages she has brought are beyond anything I could ever make up!

Believe me I have thought about what it would feel like to lose one of my children or my spouse, and I know that I would react the same way anyone would initially, but once the shock of it wore off, I would remember that is about their journey, not us.  We want to be selfish and keep them in our lives forever, but we must remember it is their journey not ours.  We must learn to love and let go, respecting their choice to grow and evolve as a spiritual being on a new journey, and it is awesome for them!  We should rejoice and be happy for them.  Please always remember and know, they are always with you, guiding and protecting.

Create Yourself! You have the Power to "Be" Anything you want!

What I know today is that I found a quote that states: Life isn't about Finding Yourself it is about Creating Yourself!  Author Unknown.

Where you are right now is exactly where you are meant to be.  Do you find yourself wondering what your purpose is or what you are supposed to be doing?  My thoughts are that we are meant to be doing what we love.  Doing what fulfills us.  Don't know what that is?  It is your job to go within and start asking yourself questions.  The only way to find answers is to ask questions.  When you ask questions the doors of possibility start to open!

What am I good at?  What do I enjoy doing?  Where are my strengths?  Where do I feel most comfortable?  Keep asking the questions as one question can lead to another and before you know it you are new territory that you never considered before!  Remember it is ok to be different than everyone else around you!

Don't like who you are?  Maybe you need to accept who you are first before change can occur.  When we are in a state of resistance what you are experiencing will persist.  Ever heard the term what you resist, persists?  Accept that you are not perfect and neither is anyone for that matter.  What kind of person would you like to be?  Is it possible you could create that?

You have a purpose that matches what you love to do, so go seek what that is, and make a difference in your world.  It doesn't have to be huge like having your own network like Oprah.  Sometimes just by finding your joy and being in it is enough to make a change in those around you, simply by being who you are!

Spread your light beautiful being!

What Nourishes Your Soul?

What I know today is that too many people hang on to those relationships that are sucking them dry!  Yes there are some relationships that we can't end completely, but we can respect our energy and what we subject ourselves to by limiting our time with these people and/or setting boundaries.  My business partner and good friend Wendy always says people will treat us how we let them.  We can set those boundaries in loving ways.

What I have learned is that food can nurture or poison the physical body depending on the food choices we make.  Want to know what nurtures your soul (you guessed it)?   Relationships.  Depending on our choices, the people we choose to surround ourselves with can either nurture who we are or damage who we are. The relationships in our lives are so important!  I don't think that people think about this or take is seriously enough!

I found a great post on FaceBook that I would like to share with you by Kyle Cease, who is an amazing comedian who describes himself as comedy meets transformation.  Kyle loves to "help people get better at doing stuff".

Today I would like to share Kyle's post:

I am only sharing this as encouragement. This is not to show off. I am hoping this drive you.
There are people who I can be around, who allow me to be who I really am. They embrace the things I do and it causes me to be better and better at being in my zone. When I am around these people, life is completely effortless. Time passes extremely fast and before I know it, I have created less work and more real results in my life. Then there are the people who my ego wants to be around.
My ego likes to be around these people to overcome some inner past story. Maybe I want to prove to someone who I have known for many many years that I am a changed person, because I am under the illusion that if they would just like me I would be happy.
It could also be someone who is in their own shit and I want to prove to them that they can do anything, but they are resisting. For some people it could be hitting on someone who is not interested in them.
What I am realizing is life moves faster and faster when you stay in the path of least resistance. If you continue to move from your core, or just be around the people who want to be around you, you will move extremely fast.
The people who let you be who you are, are more comfortable with themselves. Which also means they are moving faster too. They are healthier, more successful, more positive, have better ideas, etc. You get more, and become more just from being with these people.
After a true realization I had years ago, I spent a lot of time attempting to convince people that what I was saying was important and real. Meanwhile, there were other people who knew it was real and those people are some of the most amazing people on the planet.
By staying in my truth, I was honored to speak last night with Jim Carrey, Michael Beckwith, and many other legends. In this world, I was able to say EXACTLY what I truly believe, so it came out effortlessly. I had to do no work. No preparation, no prewritten jokes. I was just able to speak what I believe, which also still was funny, and I did not care about the results.
Even though I didn't care about the results, they were amazing. I was offered so many different TV, movie roles, gigs, etc right after my performance. It felt like I was being handed things just for being real. No work, just truth.
In the old days, I had to get an agent, get a meeting, go audition, and hope that I am chosen out of 500 people, and maybe do something for a project that I might not have even believed in. This is the harder way to make life work. I sacrificed what was true to me and just wanted to become famous, rich or feel successful.
The path of least resistance is all you need to take. I was just reminded that I don't need to prove anything to anyone. What I have to say is real for me. As I know this for a fact, own it, and wait, bigger and faster results show up. But I don't care, because those results don't complete me. They are a by-product of me saying and living in what I truly believe.
Remember that your truth is the most important thing you have. It is original, which makes it scary. You have no certainty of how things will go. But when you live it. When you own it, the world will move for you in ways you can not see right now.
The people who affected the world most, started speaking out about something that was true for them, but was extremely unpopular......... AT FIRST.

Kyle's post fits with my motto that life should be easy, and full of joy and glory!  It is all about choices and conscious awareness!  What would happen if you decided to choose the path of least resistance?  Choose people who lift you up, that believe in you and all that you are!  This will nurture you to your very essence.  This is the healthy way to bring change and love into this world!  Who knows, once you let go of some of those relationships that aren't working for you, you might be surprised at the space you create to allow new people to come in and appreciate who you are now, not who you used to be.  After all we are energy beings and we are always changing, those who allow us to change and evolve are the ones we need to be around.

Hope you enjoyed this!  Let your light shine and make a difference in the world, thank you for evolving to a better you!
