What if we made Independence Day more than just a celebration of our nation’s independence? What if we also made an effort to create sovereignty and freedom in our own lives?

Relaxation is a vital part of our mental health as well as our emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. It leads to stress reduction, improved mental health, physical health, and others.

Take advantage of the warmer temperatures, longer periods of daylight and sunshine. Your mental health will thank you.

Mental health is crucial for individual flourishing, healthy relationships and societal well-being. By recognizing the importance of mental health and prioritizing efforts to promote mental well-being, we can create a more compassionate, resilient, and equitable society for all.

We get to practice again and again to bring the focus back to the breath and let thoughts be there without attaching to them.

There is a benefit in learning this process.

This process in itself is meditative….Just. Focus. On. Your. Breath.

Some days, just giving myself time to breathe is all I need to do to re-set my nervous system and feel more peaceful.

You do not have to have a perfectly still mind to meditate. Just observe and breathe, my friend.

RESTING appears to be something that we feel we don’t have time for, don’t make time for, or have forgotten to incorporate into our lives entirely.

So what do we need to do?

Rest.

Slow down.

REST your body.

Rest your mind.

Rest your SOUL.

Joy makes us feel alive, lighter and full of laughter.

Joy is the essence of being in the moment, the experience of losing track of time and feeling fully and completely ALIVE.

Those pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them. – Rumi

Here is my Truth….being sensitive is my SUPERPOWER.

I understand and feel things in every cell of my body. My sensitivity provides the foundation for compassion, empathy and deep understanding. It is this very superpower that allows me not to say a word when I am with a client and my client knows that I get it. It is this superpower that allows me to love others to the depths of my soul and move in this polarized world with grace and kindness.

Magic happens when you stop and take time to listen to what is happening in your body. Once you actually turn towards the deeper pain of the emotions that are stuck in your body, the weight of twisted interpretations, insecurity and worry is lifted under the felt sense of your own Truth.

Once you start to connect….really connect….with this inner Truth – YOU will never be the same. Life changes and how you are in it changes.
