I am vibrant!

Everything you try to avoid about yourself will keep playing out insidiously in your life. This creates the perfect opportunity for you to embrace, love and heal this part of yourself. Melanie Tonia Evans Author and women's self empowerment teacher


Today it just dawned on me I have been on this new life path for a year now. Last year I packed up "everything" and took a leap of faith and here I am one year later. It's been quite a ride! I have spent a lot of time with myself, literally. There were days that I just spent time with myself, thinking, learning, questioning. And I would not change a single thing. I've learnt soooooo much over the past year, been to quite a few countries and met some phenomenal women and people.

I learnt about receiving with grace, about miracles, they actually do happen! who my real friends are, I have some awesome awesome buddies! I've learnt about spirituality, how positive thinking and affirmations work, what  are my non-negotiables , that worrying is really putting your faith in fear, being accountable and responsible instead of blame and projection and most importantly I have learnt about loving myself unconditionally with all my human flaws and all!!

I am about to embark on another awesome journey again, I will be spending the next year in East Africa and I cannot wait for the lessons! I am getting prepared now for this journey and hope that you will join me on this adventure and my journey further into unconditional self-love

So what did I learn today?
I am vibrant. On the brink of the brink of something new! And this time the gratitude has matured to a place of early wisdom! Appreciation and acceptance are things of value that I now understand. Calming down. Being mindful not to become stressed out about the latest trend of stress relief. So relieved to release, or at the very least to reboot. Control. Alternate. Delete.
Peace!!!

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

What Does Support Look Like to You?

  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe...
