Today we get to make something brand new. No matter what we have going on, we have the opportunity to make it a positive experience for ourselves. It will always depend on what we choose to focus on. Every single thing we create today wasn’t there before. The energy we put into this day, the smiles, the gratitude, the actions. We are the creative tools of the divine allowing ourselves to mold love into new things.
I believe that as part of our life experience we’re meant to find a deeper connection to God by aligning ourselves more fully to Him. Through stillness and meditation we can access Gods divine light and begin to see God within ourselves. That vision of ourselves allows us to see our life more clearly, to see our potential and to gain a better perspective of where to focus our energy and attention one day at a time. It’s through the quiet moments we create for ourselves, that our vision becomes clearer. And once we have that vision, we can go and act accordingly. Allowing that connection to God to grow even deeper when we put the work and the action toward it. ?????
The more that we allow ourselves to have that connection to God, the more we will experience self love. & once we have more love for ourselves, it’s easier to give love to others. ? Even to the point when we can begin to see God in them and also be able to experience the type of love that God has for them as well. So, once again we become stronger in God. Creating for ourselves the types of relationships that God would want us to have. We’re no longer influenced by negative stories that we tell ourselves…we instead connect to the Divine and try to live a life that is pleasing to God and to ourselves.
Once we gain this knowledge of our connection to God, it becomes easier for us to choose MORE positive thoughts, words and actions that align with our divine purpose. It becomes easier for us to choose what to focus our energy on today. We can choose how to react to the different circumstances that we encounter. We can CHOOSE TO CREATE MORE love, compassion, peace and gratitude for ourselves. We can focus our mental energy and our physical energy on doing good for ourselves, for God and for those around us.
This will allow us to have not only a great day, but a lifetime filled with divine creations. ?Remember that YOU are the creator of your world. Make it good, peaceful, enjoyable and filled with gratitude . The more we practice this, the easier it will become.
Our spiritual go for the week is: To create moments where we can fully focus our energy on reacting to each situation from a place of love and alignment with God. So, dedicate your actions of today to God. ( share a smile, Clean your house, spend time with your loved ones, take time for yourself etc) But try coming from a place of love and connection to God. ❤️??
Our physical goal for this week is: To Be more mindful about the things that we’re putting in our bodies. Take some time to notice your food and express gratitude for having it. Notice how it feels, tastes etc. Try to choose good that is nourishing and good for you. ?
Hope that you can make it to class tonight at 7pm to released stress and to strengthen yourself physically mentally and spiritually. Love you all and hope to see you there! ?
Sometimes life is out of control. We have learned that there are a lot more things that we can’t control than those that we can control.
Covid has definitely taught the entire world that, right? ??♀️ but as the challenges of life come to all of us, and the lack of control feels sometimes overwhelming. These different situations that we encounter become good opportunities for us to allow ourselves to release the need to control. And instead, we can choose to hold on to the few things we can control.
This knowledge has given me an opportunity to exercise something that helps me and has become my little secret when I feel like things are fully out of my control. I’ve learned to say to myself. “I may have no control of this situation, but I know God does…I always hold within my control what kind of energy I’m going to put into this hour, or into this day. ?
Reminding myself of those words allows me to remember that I do have control one of the most important things in my life. Which is the way I choose to react to things, and the kind of energy that I want to put into my day. ? This knowledge has helped me in huge ways! I realize that I can take some time to breathe and to recharge my energy, so that I can radiate more love for myself, my family and everyone that I encounter during the day.
This is a huge thing to be in control of. If my constant question is: How can I react to this with love? ?Then all day long I am vibrating love. The question itself opens the heart and exposes the depth of unending unconditional love…Which also brings peace to my soul because I know that I’m reacting in a way that is pleasing to me, to my higher self and to God.
Anytime we act with LOVE we instantly make contact with the divine, who is the infinite source of all love. It increases our capacity to love ourselves and others and that magnifies as we align with God as beings of love. Plus, it feels great to release to God the things we can’t control and instead focus our energy on reacting with Love to the things we can control.
If we are able to bring the energy of love into our day, we can react in love to even the smallest choices. We can react in love for ourselves, when we choose to exercise, eat healthy, get enough rest, meditate, pray etc. We can react in love when our children behave in a way that is not pleasing to us. Or when someone is not kind to us etc…all situations handles in love will feel way better. Throughout the day we can choose to react in love each hour because we deserve to feel LOVE instead of feeling all of the other negative and spiraling emotions that don’t uplift or help us out at all. ??♀️
The greatest thing is that we do get to choose how we want to react and the kind of energy that we want to have. So throughout the day, today let’s allow ourselves to become the energy of love for ourselves and for everyone who crosses our physical path as well as for those who cross our mental paths. Focus on love in your Mind, heart and actions. So that we may fully radiate love internally and externally. By doing this we will experience even more LOVE, PEACE and GRATITUDE flowing throughout our day and into our lives. This type of vibration will affect you those around you in amazing ways. Maybe after all, life doesn’t have to feel out of control. ? Put it to the test and watch it work for yourself. ?❤️
Our Spiritual goal is: To give those things we can’t control to God and to focus our energies on the things we can control. Focus on vibrating in love this week. In your words, actions and thoughts toward yourself and toward others. ?
Our physical goal this week is: To come from a place of love In your exercise. Yes, I know it can be hard to find the motivation sometimes ?…But just take it one day at a time. Choose to do it from a place of LOVE. Ask yourself how can I react in love to this feeling? ? Love might remind you of your reasons WHY you want to exercise. Love might motivate you to put on your workout clothes, to get in your car and just drive yourself to class. Love might remind you to keep a promise to yourself, it might encourage you and remind you that it would be great for you to do this…whatever is going on, respond to it coming from a place of love and then follow through with that action of Love. You’ve got this! ♥️
Hope that you can join us tonight at 7pm to enjoy a beautiful sunset, release stress and strengthen yourself Physically, Mentally and Spiritually. You won’t regret it and if anything you’ll feel AMAZING!!! ?❤️??♀️???
When you feel overwhelmed and stressed with whatever may be going on in your life right now, Just remember that it is OK for you to just stop thinking about it all for a minute. It’s ok to just take some deep breaths and refocus yourself to remind yourself that YOU CAN do hard things. That YOU CAN overcome this, YOU CAN take on those goals, and YOU WILL continue forward and upward on your journey. ?
The path of complaining, feeling discouraged and negative is always easier but definitely not rewarding. We often allow the emotions or judgments of others to affect us, when we already know that we can’t control what anyone else does or says. We can only control what we think, say or do.
That is where our power comes in. This is the moment when we need to react positively for ourselves. Because we deserve it! And because we CAN choose a better option for ourselves. We can come from a place of love, respect and confidence to be able have our own back in life.??? ?
Philippians 4:13 Says; I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
There are so many amazing scriptures to remind us that God is with us and that He can get us through anything we may be facing. What’s important, is that we choose to trust in His words and to allow those words to come over us, to empower us and to fill us with His strength. So that we may be able to continue moving forwarding in light, love and in positive energy for ourselves and for whatever we may be facing. Trust in God and positive thinking will make all the difference. ?
So today, tell yourself YOU CAN! You can overcome this, you can make it through even if it’s just ONE DAY AT A TIME. God wants to remind you that through Him you can do MORE! He wants to remind you that you’re loved by your creator, that your work doesn’t go unnoticed, but that it’s actually noticed by the most amazing being in the universe. He knows your heart and is ready and willing to help you through it All.
Believe in yourself, and in your capacity to choose to focus on the good. To keep your eyes centered on what God would want you to do for yourself and for those around you. Keep your heart focused on the Love of God so that may experience more love for yourself. Focus today on feeling Gods live in the smallest little things, like the air you breathe, the plants, animals and children you see. The light and love of God is all around you! How much of it can you see? ❤️
Our Spiritual goal for ourselves today is to “check in” With ourselves each hour, to take some deep breaths and re-focus our energy on what we want to feel. Ask yourself, how do I want to show up for myself and others during this hour? Remind yourself I CAN DO THIS! I can do all things through Christ who Strengthens me….Whatever your goal is, remember to give yourself the gift of encouragement, love and alignment with God to remain positive. You’ve got this & YOU CAN DO THIS.
Our physical go for the week is to remain in alignment with our health goals. Focus on the good healthy foods you can eat and how good they are for your body. Don’t tell yourself you can’t have that! Etc…Instead tell yourself you choose not to have it because you’d rather choose something healthier for yourself. Tonight in class we’ll talk a little more about this.
Hope that you can make it to class tonight at 7 PM to strengthen your Body, Mind and Spirit! Motivate yourself to do this for YOU! Because you love yourself enough to make the time for it and because you deserve to Release stress and recharge your energy. I promise you won’t regret it. ?❤️??
If it rains we’ll be inside, but for now, the weather looks nice for us enjoy the sunset outside. Love you all and hope you can make it! ???? ??♀️
No matter what I’m carrying or holding on to today, I deserve to let go of negativity and hold on to all that brings peace, love and light into my life.
Each day I have the opportunity to choose where to focus my energy, thoughts and attention. Thoughts of fear, pain, lack or negative affect my Mind, Body and Soul. I recognize that they cause more damage and pain and that most of those thoughts come form the enemy, who doesn’t want me to progress or align to the divine light of God.
So, today I choose to focus on releasing all that is affecting me negatively and giving it all to God instead. I align myself to higher and greater power. The power which is full of love, light, peace and positivity. The light of God which reminds me that with each inhale and exhale that my physical body takes, I can say to myself; “I am a peaceful being,” “My mind is calm,” “My soul is joyful.”I know in whom I trust.”❤️
As I’m able to EXERCISE letting go of the thoughts and feelings that don’t serve me, I begin to understand my relationship with God. I know that I am His child and that He loves ME. He has a perfect plan aligned for me and as I learn to trust Him and listen to Him, I will be better able to master my mind while I’m on this earth. ???
I will trust in His light, wisdom, mercy and guidance for my life. I place my full trust on Him. I promise Him to be a child who is fully trusting, no matter what. I want to be a child of God who sets no boundaries to the amazing Love, generosity and care that a loving Father in Heaven is willing and ready to give. I recognize that His power is limitless and there’s no end to the amazing things He can do for me in my life.
As I’m able to trust Him, I’m able to hear His words when He says; “Look unto me in every thought; doubt not, fear not.” D&C 6:36 When I look to God in every thought my doubts and fears leave. Negativity disappears because I’m filled with the love of God. ❤️
My Body, Mind and Soul feel peaceful and it’s my faith in God which propels me forward into taking more positive action for my life. It allows me to feel the power of God flowing in my daily thoughts and actions. ?
I will place my focus on the light, love and peace of my loving Father in Heaven. I will notice His hand in my life today, I will speak to Him with a pure heart and I will do my best to live a life that is positive, peaceful, grateful, loving and trusting….Because I deserve it. ❤️
Hope that you’re able to choose the same for yourself! ❤️Love you all and can’t wait to see you again in class tonight at 7pm! ?❤️?? ??♀️
Our spiritual goal this week is to focus on positive thinking and taking those deep breaths and reconnecting to God as often as you can. ❤️
Our physical goal for the week is to eat healthy meals this week and exercise at least 3 times this week. Take it one day at a time. You’ve got this! ???❤️
The world around us wants us to gain our confidence from our abilities or from what we can accomplish. We tend to feel like our level of confidence is based on what people say about us, how many likes we get, how popular we are, how much we have compared to others, how we look etc.
The more that we base our level of confidence on what is “popular” the harder it will be to ever feel true peace with ourselves. Following the words of the world around us keeps us unstable and unable to gain a strong and rooted confidence in God. It’s important for us to be honest with ourselves and ask ourselves, how confident do I feel today? Do I look for outside sources to bring me confidence? How can I turn my lack of confidence into becoming truly confident in God and in His plan for me?
To be confident in God means that we don’t need any outside sources to tell us our worth. We don’t need likes, comments, the popular vote or for people to like or accept us. The confidence that God provides is different. It’s not prideful or conceited, Instead it’s peaceful, calm and filled with an inner strength & knowledge that there is a God who hears every prayer & and is ready to prove to you what the power of having true faith in Him life feels like. ???
God confidence means that it’s full of courage even when there’s fear, because we know in whom we trust. It’s a confidence that has faith to get out of the boat during the storm and walk on the water keeping your focus in HIM. ❤️ It’s a confidence that is filled with a positive attitude, with hope, it looks upward and forward to the future and to the purpose that God has for our lives. It’s a confidence that is filled with strength and courage to live the best life that we can for God and for ourselves. ???
God teaches us in Psalms 118:8 It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. & Proverbs 3:26 says; For the Lord shall be thy confidence.
God wants us to place our confidence on Him. That’s the reason why we’re here on this Earth! to get to know Him, to learn to trust Him, to test the limits of our Faith & to become who He intended us to become when He created us. The more that we trust Him, the more we will notice what we can do and accomplish with His help. He will guide us, help us and inspire us to know where we should be focusing our energies. Trust Him & see what a confident Child if God can do. ????
Don’t let your days pass without allowing yourself to connect to God and to experience the power He has for your life. Wake up each day with a desire to do your very best! To put your faith in Him, to stop worrying and instead turn it all to Him! ??
Allow your fears, insecurities and dissatisfactions to disappear and instead focus your energy on inviting the light of God, on living daily in gratitude for your blessings and if needed on disconnecting from the negativity to build that inner strength for your soul.
Let go of the distraction that are keeping you away from growing your faith and trusting in God. Instead make it a point today to connect to your source of light, love and peace. Breathe In that energy into your body, allow it tome in and fill you with His healing energy. Breathe it into your Mind and allow your mind to be renewed in God. Clearing your mind to know exactly what to focus on today and Breathe love into into your soul and your heart so that you may feel and know that GOD LOVES YOU! & HE MAKES YOU CONFIDENT AND ABLE TO DO ALL THINGS ❤️
You’ve got this! Prove it to God and prove it yourself. ??❤️
? Our Spiritual goal for the next 2 weeks is to be God confident! ?? ?Don’t let the other stuff get to you. Focus on your purpose! On renewing your Mind, BODY and Spirit with His light daily. Focus on what God wants you to work on and you’ll feel so much better. Set goals for yourself, talk to Him & be confident in your ability to accomplish what He has placed in your heart.
? Our Physical goal for the next 2 weeks is to Eat more nutrient rich foods. Let’s avoid anything processed or sugary. And let’s set a goal to exercise at least 3 times during the week ??? Focus on healthy, nutrient rich food, and be mindful of what is going in your body. We can do this! ???❤️
? NEW CLASS TIME STARTING TONIGHT AT 7:00 PM! CLASS WILL BE CANCELED FOR THE NEXT 2 WEEKS. So, tonight is your chance to do something awesome for your Body, Mind & Spirit. Hope that you can make it! ??❤️???♀️??
For many of us our first thought of the day is “I didn’t get enough sleep.” Followed by “I don’t have enough time, my weight isn’t what I want it to be, there’s not enough money, I need that, I haven’t done this” etc….We’re unknowingly judging ourselves daily with statements of lack or of not being good enough or doing enough.
We have a hard time being satisfied with what we already have. Social media and the things we view can also have an effect on us, making us feel “not enough”. We live in a consumerist society where we are preoccupied with the acquisition of things. They want us to feel lack constantly! They tell us we’re not enough and that we need to acquire MORE in order to feel good enough. They lie to us and tell us we’re not pretty enough and we need that make up, those clothes or that surgery to “feel pretty” so we buy into it again and again. We also believe the lies that we’re not a good enough at taking care of the people or things around us, that we didn’t accomplish enough and that our some days are failed and terrible… all of those thoughts and lies begin to affect us and the world around us.
These subconscious negative thoughts make us question everything about ourselves. Who we are, what we look like, what we haven’t done or accomplished etc. They create a mindset of scarcity in our lives. Those thoughts don’t allow us to see the good that we do, they instead cloud the good and bring into our hearts sadness, jealousy, greed comparisons, dissatisfaction and a lack of trust in ourselves. We try to search to become “enough” by the things that we purchase, by trying to attain more money, by the accumulation of material things, we search for it by seeking popularity, attention and the approval of others. We become dependent of what others think of us and we continue the cycle of not believing in ourselves or not feeling good enough. So, we should take a minute and ask ourselves, Where am I searching to become “enough”? What lies am I buying into? What is the world or the enemy trying to feed into my mind that is not helping me live today to the fullest or to be satisfied with my blessings and what I can enjoy today? ?
I would like to challenge you to notice your thoughts of “not enough” throughout your day or your week and to treat yourself as you would TREAT SOMEONE YOU LOVE! ? remember that if it’s someone you love, you would remind them that they are loved, that they can be positive, that they’re beautiful and amazing and you focus on their strengths and the good that they do. You would tell them that they have enough to live a happy life and to enjoy the blessings of today. The problem is that we forget that it’s the person staring back at us in the mirror who can make us happy! We forget to take care of that person! Of who we are! We forgot that it’s not up to the world or to anything external for us to feel enough. That feeling comes from our connection with God and the love that we’re able to give to ourselves. We truly can be our own best friend. ?❤️?? So, give yourself the love of a friend & add God to your day because He will always come through to help you feel better.
He has said:
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. – Romans 8:38-39
Nothing can separate you form the love of Jesus. and if that’s all you can focus on at a time, that is good enough. ❤️ Just the fact that God has promised you that nothing can separate you from the love of Jesus is enough to remind you that you do not live in a world of scarcity but in a world of abundance! a world where you can feel the love of God. In the simple things as in nature, in the eyes of your children or your pet, In the love of friends and so much more. So when you feel those thoughts of lack remember to focus on love instead. Just knowing that God created you, that He has a plan for you from before you came into this earth and that He will never leave you but instead always LOVE YOU! That very knowledge of the love of God can bring immense peace and confidence into your soul.
Here’s another beautiful promise for you;
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. – 1 John 3:1
I believe that the real test of our lives is to learn to look inward, to help ourselves internally to overcome the different challenges we face. And the best way to do that is to feel a connection to our Father in Heaven and our Savior Jesus Christ. When we can feel that God has a perfect plan for us, that He loves us and as we try our best to remember that, we will be better able to give ourselves more love. And to love ourselves enough to want to do the best for our soul, our mind and ourselves physically as well. So, remember, you are in control of your thoughts. No one else has power over us unless we “allow them” to do so. If we know where to focus our thoughts, to make them positive, they will help strengthen us, change our feelings and our actions which will create some amazing results for our lives.
When we learn to look inward we have a stronger desire to love ourselves for who God created us to be. He wants us to truly feel the AMAZING LOVE THAT HE HAS FOR EACH ONE OF US!! ❤️ & He wants us to know that we can GIVE OURSELVES MORE LOVE TOO! we can remind ourselves that we already were born with Divine light and we can continue to grow that in our lives. We don’t need to compare ourselves to anyone, instead we will be reminded to trust in the amazing God who knows what is best for our lives. We trust in a loving God who has already given us in abundance and we focus on our blessings and on the love that were able to have today instead of focusing on lack or negativity (which is what the enemy wants) We help ourselves to RAISE OUR FREQUENCY! To reach new heights with God and to allow our thoughts, our minds and Spirits to be centered and lifted on God. On all that is good! The good that we do and all that we’re blessed to have. ?❤️??
At the end of it all, you’ve always been enough. You’ve been perfectly made from the beginning. Your soul was created by a loving God. He thought of creating YOU!!! That alone is amazing on its own!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Your value doesn’t come from material things, from an instagram or Facebook post. It doesn’t come from popularity, from having the perfect body or from having millions of dollars and seeking recognition or power. Some things in life may bring comfort, but none of those things bring true joy, happiness and real lasting peace. That can only come from within each one of us. We have to remember that we are enough, because we are CHILDREN OF GOD, Our value is already determined. It is only up to us to look inward to find it and to bring it out and start feeling that love more and more within us and around us.
So, Trust Him and know that true and lasting peace starts with your thoughts and your connection to yourself and to God. All other things are mostly distractions or ways to teach us to manage our surroundings…But, we’re really here on earth to learn to LOVE God, LOVE ourselves, LOVE our families and LOVE our neighbors, LOVE our blessings and all that we have today. ❤️❤️❤️
Focus on the Good and learn from the hard times. Remind yourself today that you’re created by a Loving God and you want to focus on LOVING YOUR LIFE TODAY & not hating it. ??♀️ …Move forward with Faith in God and trusting in yourself to recognize the lies that the world and the enemy try to feed you. Treat yourself as someone you LOVE! ❤️ Remember that God wants you to lean this! To really do this for yourself and to combat and have victory over those negative thoughts and feelings. The more you practice changing those thoughts, the better you’ll get at it. Life is what we want to make it. Let go of the lack and focus on the good and on the love and all of the amazing abundance that surrounds you today and always. ?❤️??
Hope that you can make it tonight at 6pm and give yourself some love by taking care of yourself and strengthening your Body, Mind & Spirit.?❤️??
Our Spiritual goal is to focus on creating thoughts that are Loving toward ourselves and rejecting the negativity.
Our physical goal is to move a little more and to remove processed foods and try to eat as natural as possible. ???
Take it one day at a time. You’ve got this! Love you all! ?
Gratitude is one of the most overlooked tools that we all have access to every day. Cultivating gratitude doesn’t cost any money and it certainly doesn’t take much time, but the benefits are enormous.
Did you know that just by being grateful you can shield yourself from negativity? ? There’s a study that shows that being grateful can instantly make you at least 25% happier, it rewires your brain, eliminates stress, strengthens your relationship with yourself and others and it increases your mental strength.
Not only that, but God wants to remind you that He wants you to focus on gratitude instead of focusing on the things that don’t seem to be working right in your life. He has promised us this; “And he who receiveth all things with thankfulness shall be made glorious; and the things of this earth shall be added unto him, even an hundred fold, yea, more.” (D&C 78:19) How amazing that God has promised us that as we focus on gratitude, He will bless us with even more than what we have now.
The more we’re able to practice gratitude the more we will invite joy into our lives. And Practicing is the part that will really change our lives. So, how can you make this a part of your daily life? You can start first thing in the morning by thanking God for a new opportunity of having a new day, for your gifts and blessings. You can also have a gratitude journal to help you notice the daily blessings. Throughout the day you can have moments to just breathe and be in that feeling of gratitude. Or you can make it a point during your family dinner to say one thing you’re each thankful for. All of these things will invite joy into your life and the life of your loved ones and it will also add the physical and spiritual benefits of being grateful.
So, If you’ve been feeling stressed and overwhelmed please take a moment to stop what you’re doing, to have a second to just close our eyes and to take a few deep breaths….Just taking a moment to be thankful for this simple ability to take in a breath is all you need to focus on. With each breath that comes into our body we can experience deeper and deeper feelings of gratitude for all that we have and for all that we’ve received from God. We can allow those breaths to strengthen us and to renew and energize our body, our mind and our spirit. Remember, focus on your blessings. You’re in charge of controlling how you feel and what to focus on. Let it be for your benefit and for your inner peace. ?
The goal for this week is to be thankful DAILY ☀️?? when you start feeling stressed take a moment to count your blessings instead. Think about the simple gift of life. The fact that you’re able to be on this earth today, that you can breathe, be here and present with everything that surrounds you. The more that you focus on those things the more you’ll enjoy your day, the more stress will disappear and you’ll be able to feel peaceful and joyful and instead focus on the abundant blessings that God has given you and will continue to give you. ???
St. John 14: 18 says I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. One of the ways in which we can feel the comfort of God is by expressing gratitude to Him and by being willing to trust in the promise that He will never leave us comfortless. Gratitude will allow us to open our eyes to see more of the blessings that God has given us and in return It will allow us to strengthen our relationship with Him. To trust Him more and to believe in His will and goodness for our lives. This will allow us to stop fearing and instead have more faith in Him and in ourselves. And once we’re able to do that we can then help Him to reach out to others in gratitude to testify of His goodness and to be a light and a blessing to those around us. ?
The benefits of gratitude not only bring health and mental strength into our lives. They also add confidence in God and in ourselves that will allow us to have a way more joyful, enjoyable and peaceful life. We will be better able to help ourselves and others on our journey, and it will remind us daily of the love of God. ??? The choice is yours, let gratitude be your blessing today. ???.
Hope that you can make it to class tonight at 6:00PM! ? Our goal is to release stress, strengthen our Body and renew our Mind and our Spirit through meditation & relaxation. If you feel like you need it. Please motivate yourself to be there and to do something good like this for yourself today. ??? It is a gift for YOU! You’ll leave feeling amazing and you won’t regret it. See you there! ?❤️
?Our spiritual goal for this week is to keep a gratitude journal or to express our gratitude daily and see how we feel.
?Our physical goal is to cut out the sugary drinks and to drink water instead?? I challenge you to do only water for one week at least.
TODAY, FOCUS ON THE THINGS THAT MATTER MOST, BE GRATEFUL AND TAKE IT ONE DAY AT A TIME. ? You’ve got this! ????
How often are you feeling affected by the behavior of others? Is your mind constantly narrating or taking you back to a situation where you wish you could’ve responded differently? The truth is that we all encounter people and situations that can destroy our inner peace more often than we would like. Part of the test of life, is wether or not we will learn how to react to the different circumstances, people and situations that come into our lives and that threaten to steal our inner peace.
I fully believe that it is part of God’s plan to send us to this earth so that we may learn to choose GOOD for ourselves. These choices also include the things we think about, our mental focus and attention. Also the ways in which we will choose to manage our emotions, the reactions we have and finding the ways to help us manage our “triggers.” Life is definitely built as the most perfect school to train our Mind, Body and Spirit fully.
In the word of God there are so many examples of people who had to overcome different things and situations. We too, have the mental power and ability overcome and to be victorious against anything that we face. We know that we don’t have to do it alone, but that there is a God who is fully willing and ready to help us. As we pray and come to Him, He will show us the tools that we need to continue to keep that inner peace within us so that we may not be so affected by the world, the people and the situations around us.
As I’ve tried to grow closer to God, and through His guidance and inspiration I’ve been able to learn more about the important relationship of my brain, mind, body and Spirit. I’ve learned how closely related they work together and how beneficial it is for all of us to learn tools and skills to help us strengthen each of these important areas of who we are. Doing so will allow us to tap into those strong areas within us to be better able to handle the different challenges that we may face.
One of my favorite tools comes from mindfulness. Which is a technique that helps you to achieve a state of alert, focused relaxation by deliberately paying attention to thoughts and sensations without judgment. This allows the mind to refocus on the present moment and allows you the time to process, feel and release emotions and also to invite the good and the positive to come in instead. Some of these tools have allowed me to see the benefits of connecting more to my body, mind and spirit. And even though some days hit us harder than others, I know there are ways in which we can help ourselves keep our inner peace.
I’ll share some of the tools that have been the most helpful to me and that have allowed me to keep my inner peace more stable and less affected by the outside world. I hope that you can gain something from this, and if you already have tools that help you, that you may continue to PRACTICE and create new pathways and habits in your brain to help you. The more we practice the better we get at this. 😉 Also, I hope that you know that you can reach out to me and I’d love to help you in any way I can. ❤️
You can choose to do some of these activities daily or whenever you’re feeling triggered by something. Just remember that when you feel “triggered” it’s because of a thought you have, and it’s important to always question if that thought is true or helpful to you. Theres always space where you can choose how to let it affect you. Is it worth your energy?….Is it Positive or negative for you to keep? Or is it better to accept the way it is and release it. Wether your peace leaves or stays it will all be your choice. So choose what is best for YOU!! & don’t forget that you always deserve more peace, love and light over anything else???
Try these tools if possible before the day begins, so that way your inner strength and mental ability will be much higher throughout the day. That way it will be harder to deplete your energy and you’ll be able to keep your inner peace more stable. Or practice these techniques throughout the day to help you process your emotions as well.
Here are some ideas or tools to help us keep our inner peace.
?Ask for help on a soul level: Ask the creator of your soul to help you have wisdom to view whatever is going on through His eyes and to TRUST THAT ALL WILL BE OK AND ACCORDING TO HIS DIVINE PLAN.
? The power of your BREATH: Breathing physiologically calms the body. Access your breath, find your inner peace, center your attention on this very moment. Remember that as you breathe you’ll begin to feel better. Once you’re at a place of calm, you can choose what to do next.
?Change your focus: Ask yourself; “ IS THIS THOUGHT USEFUL? It’s ok to feel your emotions, and process what is, but once you process them, it’s better to think about something more positive for you. Think about what you would like to focus your energy on in the next 30 minutes. Choose to do something uplifting for yourself, something that feels good, that helps you feel happy and accomplished. You can also choose to call someone who will be a positive influence to you during this time. Or just do something that allows your energy to be used in a way more positively.
? Meditate: Slowing down your mind and disconnecting form the outside world is an awesome exercise and a muscle that we can continue to practice. Specially if we’re trying to keep that inner peace within us. Finding a quiet place or just covering your ears, closing your eyes and focusing on your connection to your physical body, your emotions and your breath. Allowing yourself to have a moment to observe your thoughts as an outsider and letting them just pass by. Or taking a moment to ask yourself questions like: Does someone on the planet have it worse than me right now? Will this matter in 5 years? These questions help you to zoom out and realize that things may not be that bad and that you can handle them. Having a moment to see the problems from a distance can help us to process and release them and instead we can focus on breathing, connecting to the divine or higher source and inviting more inner peace, calm and stillness to be with us. Meditation allows us to connect to our higher self and to God which will in return allow more wisdom to come. ?
? Positive affirmations, words and visualization; there’s extensive research on the theory that what we think about, we create. The body defaults to the pathways it already knows. So, it takes little retraining to create new thought patterns or habits. Affirmations help so much! Write yours and keep them where you can visually see them. Ex; “I am calm and serene”, “everything is in Divine order”, “I am joyful and peaceful”, “today will be an amazing day”. Also, having favorite scriptures to look at and to memorize are also amazing! Words have power! And we need to use them. ???
?Less time with screens: Whatever you listen to, watch and focus on, becomes how you speak to yourself. So, listen to uplifting music, positive messages and make a promise to yourself that your media intake will be positive. Spend less time looking at social media, or spending too much time on screens. These things short circuit our energy and leave us mentally and physically tense. Spend as much time in nature as possible. Implement a daily walk while leaving the phone at home. Or just leave your phone in a different room, it may feel weird and hard to do, but it’s an awesome test to see how attached we’ve become to it ? instead of focusing on the phone, notice your surroundings and make it a point to be more present .
? Self love: Be kind to yourself, treat yourself to something nice, exercise outdoors if possible, visualize your wellness and eat and drink all is healthy, nutritious and good for you. Don’t forgetting to also rest and get enough water and sleep. Your body has a huge effect on stress release, help yourself by choosing good for your Body as well. ???❤️
? & The last tip is to be Thankful and Present. Mindfulness teaches about the power of now. This very moment is all we have, this is the only moment we can control. The choice we make is for right now. The past is gone, we can accept it, grow from it and move on. The future is unknown, we can plan for it, but not fully focus on it since we really don’t know what exactly will happen. So, it’s important for us to be thankful to be here right now. Thankful for the blessings we have and for all that God gives us today! Being present means that we take things one at a time and that we allow ourselves to be in the moment. It means that we make it a point to see the blessings that we have right now. Trusting that God will take care of providing for us one day at a time. So, the focus is for today! All I can do is for this very moment, just today. The more that we’re able to be thankful and present, the more we will be able to enjoy true inner peace one day at a time.
I pray that you will be able to realize your inner divine power as a child of God. That inner peace is already within you, it is a part of your divine DNA. God wants you to learn to keep it, to strengthen it and protect it so that you may have more stability handling the world around you. The enemy has no power over you when you know who you are, where you come from, and the divine light that is within you. With this knowledge, You can process your emotions, you can keep that peace within you and enjoy your inner peace more and more to be able to help others around you instead.
John 16:33 Says: These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. ? He is by your side. The one who knows everything about this world and what each one of us will face. With Him you can do all things. He asks you to be of good cheer! Can you do that for yourself today? Trust Him and focus your mind, heart and soul on that divine peace that you can enjoy more and more. Focus on the blessings and all the good that you have. God is good and so are you! Keep it coming! You’ve got this! ???❤️
Hope that you can make it to class tonight at 6 PM! This outdoor class is so therapeutic! ? Not only do we get to enjoy the sunset, but we also get to release stress and strengthen our body, Mind and Spirit. Motivate yourself to get there (that’s the hardest thing) once you’re there you won’t regret the feeling afterwards. ??♀️???
Words are so powerful. They form new thoughts, they express new ideas and they create new realities.
Have you noticed that we often carry words that were spoken to us, about us and over us?
Ask yourself these questions:
? Are the words that you’re caring inside of you negative or positive?
? Do these words encourage you or make you feel worse about yourself?
? Is the goodness of God or the criticism of people creating your thoughts today?
? Is it peace or fear that is ruling your emotions?
?How are the words that you have believed affecting you today?
?Which words do you want to change for yourself?
As I sat down and asked myself these questions, I was able to write down some of the positive and negative words that I have carried for years. As I made my list I realized that I love the positive words that I’ve adopted or carried for years. They’re like affirmations that I want to continue to repeat to myself. ?
Then I looked at my list of the negative words that I have carried. I noticed that those words have been attached to some of my own insecurities and doubts. Due to something someone said at one point or a thought I created for myself. I realized that these words are not allowing me to live the way that I know God wants me to live.
So, I asked myself; are the words that I’m carrying accurate? & how can I change these negative words? Then, I read James 1:21 which says; humbly accept the word that is planted in you, which has power to save you.
I felt that the word of God is the word that is planted in me and the one that I want to continue to GROW WITHIN ME. He has power to help me and to save me. As I choose to focus on His words I know I will be able to help myself as well. ?
So, take a look at your words today and the words that you’ve been caring for years. God wants you to listen to His words and most importantly to respond to them. To not just be a hearer of the Word of God, but a DOER also. ? So, partner with Him! He wants to help you reach your highest potential. He is speaking to you, He wants your words to be positive and uplifting and He will help you to create that reality in your life. Your words will have great power to help you through the challenges you face. So, speak life and good Into your life daily and feel the difference. ?
Look for the fullness of Christ that you have been given. You have the word of God living in you and that should be superior to all other words. The word of God overrides any lesser word spoken to you, spoken about you or spoken over you.
It’s time to throw away any lesser word that you have been caring about yourself. Stop letting them replay in your mind or letting them dictate how are you feel, stop letting them create barriers in your relationships. Stop letting them tell you who you are. Instead I encourage you to believe in God. To fully allow yourself to be open to feeling His love for you. Just sit alone in nature and that will remind you of His love. Pray to Him for help and trust in your ability to choose good words and thoughts for yourself. ???☺️
So, keep your focus on His love and change your negative words. He wants you to bring light into your heart and help you heal from the words that you’ve been caring. To instead be filled with the word of God which brings POWER to save you, to encourage you and to allow you to be a light to others as well. This takes practice, but remember? we are DOERS ??? and we can do it. Our minds have the power to focus on the good and as we trust God, He will take care of the rest.
Love you all! & hope that you can be surrounded by Uplifting words to help, encourage and strengthen you today and always. Don’t forget, Your words have POWER! ??
If you need encouragement or motivation to do something good for yourself all you have to do is show up at 6:00 pm tonight. ?? You’ll enjoy the sunset, be able to release stress and feel encouraged and motivated to do something good for your Body. You’ll also be able to allow your mind to relax and re-focus your thoughts and feel your Spirit renewing and re-energized to take on the rest of your week. Hope that you can make it and feel the difference in yourself.
We all have had hurt relationships, passed wrongs or doings and unprocessed emotions that we carry with us. Sometimes it’s unknowingly, because we have buried those thoughts and emotions deep within us.
We fear the discomfort of having to sit down with our thoughts and process our emotions. But the key to moving passed them is for us to process this for ourselves and to create a mental plan on how to respond to these thoughts or situations. We must stop the cycle of hurt within us and instead turn those experiences into the growth that we need. ?
While we can’t control what memories stick with us or not, we can control our attention. Specifically, we can exert control over how much we choose to focus on and ruminate about past wrongs committed against us. Sometimes we forget that we have full control over our attention and we do not need to keep going back to relieve the past pain. We all know that the past is out of our control, we have to acknowledge that and move forward. Instead, we can focus our attention on something we can control today. Focusing on positive thoughts and actions that are worth our time and energy right now. Trying to be present is always way more helpful than relieving the past.
Creating a personal plan for ourselves to help us take care our own individual Body, Mind and Soul is so important. I love talking about the connection of these 3 areas of ourselves, because I believe that it’s in the alignment of these 3, that we’re able to create true internal peace. Which trickles down to all other areas and situations that we may encounter. Create the plan that best works for you! Take care for your Mind, Body and Soul DAILY and you’ll see that doing this for yourself will allow that internal strength and peace to help you navigate your thoughts and your life in a much healthier way. ?
If processing your emotions brings up anger or frustration remind yourself that it is ok to feel these emotions. Take a moment to briefly acknowledge the feeling validating that you have every right to feel it. But then ask yourself: Will continuing to elaborate on what happened and extending my anger or frustration do me any good in the long term? Just because your anger is justified doesn’t mean it’s helpful. You can validate your anger, but DON’T FEED IT.
Allowing your Mind to process your emotions is so important. I love the thought of minimalism for the mind. Just keeping Whats truly important in your mind is so helpful. Meditation is a huge way to sit and observe your mind and thoughts and filter out what is not useful. You can sit for a moment, breathe and just be in your body and allow yourself to feel where in your body those emotions are present. You can ask yourself what those emotions feel like etc… Then you can focus your attention and energy on gaining control on how to react and grow from the situation you’ve experienced. Remind yourself to make the healing it positive for YOU! Your mind can focus on what you want to achieve. This type of exercise is for your inner peace, It’s totally worth doing & remember that each opportunity that presents itself is a chance for you to practice.???
The Body can always help in the healing process as well. Getting enough rest, Taking in nutrient rich foods, having time to relax, and allowing yourself to exercise is so important. When you exercise, your body releases chemicals such as dopamine and endorphins in your brain that make you feel happy. Not only is your brain dumping out feel-good chemicals, but exercise also helps your brain get rid of chemicals that make you feel stressed and anxious. It’s amazing what taking care of your body can do. Not only for your Mind but also for your health and physical well-being. ???
And last but not least, The importance of taking care of your soul. Giving yourself time daily to disconnect from all of the things that call for your attention and instead to have a moment to connect to God. To allow yourself to open your heart to Him. To ask Him for forgiveness and also for guidance as you try to heal from the things of the past. God will help you feel peace, He will remind you to believe in His goodness, to count your blessings and to know that you have within yourself divine light and power as the child of God that you are. He makes you capable to forgive, to move forward and to overcome.
God’s healing is available for you TODAY! Take advantage and reach out for divine help to process your thoughts and emotions. As you believe in Him, He will help you Mentally, Physically and Spiritually. ? It’s only through divine guidance that you will be able to have true clarity of mind, to see what you’re meant to gain from your challenges. You will also gain peace and strength to move forward. So, Hold on to Him and experience true healing, true love and peace in your life…The more open you are to receiving form Him the more you gain. WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. ????
You deserve internal peace, & it is already within you. Release the uncontrollable past and instead focus your energy on nourishing the present, the good and the light within you. It’s all in your control. Remind yourself; “I am Divinely guided today to care for my mind, body and soul. & I do this for myself because I deserve and love that internal peace” ??????♀️??
Hope that you can make it to class tonight at 6 PM for an amazing outdoor sunset work out that will also help you to strengthen your body mind and soul.? Make that promise to yourself, come and feel the difference. You’ll leave feeling amazing and I promise that you won’t regret doing this for yourself. ? ??♀️???
