Day 20: Savour the Journey

That’s what I’m doing today… savouring the journey. Actually I am in awe of how life unfolds moment by moment. I’m still on such a ‘high’ from Friday’s concert. The emails from people who attended touch me deeply. I am so inspired. I just remember sitting on stage looking […]

Day 6: Serenity

I’ve been bedridden all day. I’ve held this image of stillness and serenity in my mind as my body heals itself from whatever it is releasing. Movement was highly overrated (and near impossible) today.
I love when water is like glass — the perfect mirror — and every little […]

Word of the Week: Possibilities

I’ve been dreaming of my concert and contacting some artists to accompany me. I’m so excited at the possibilities to see which take shape.  As I set this concert in motion, I’m flooded with a ton of ideas and energy.  It begins to take on a life of its own — as if it’s saying […]

Word of the Week: Community

Without a doubt, my word of the week is community. I say this because I’ve had such exceptional support from the people that I’ve shared my concert announcement with. In fact, I’m blown away by the enthusiasm. One of my greatest lessons in life is to reach out to the people around me and ask […]

Word of the Week: Approval

When you read Day 3 of my 28-Day Journey, my word of the week will make sense. Whenever we seek approval from others, the place we really need to start is within ourselves. Some part of us hasn’t given another part of us permission to sparkle. Walls have been built, a lock mounted and with […]

Word of the Week: Embody

I love this word embody and its many definitions (from dictionary.com)
- to give bodily form to; to embrace; to represent or express something abstract in tangible form; to collect into or include in a body.
We are living, breathing, walking, talking embodiments of our belief systems, thoughts and corresponding emotions. I know for myself, my physical […]

Word of the Week: Vitality

Last week I spoke of slowing down to love. Then BAM… a little head cold visited me and I was brought to a stop. In fact, my whole family was for a few days. Climbing the stars to my second floor was like completing a marathon. I felt bones in my body ache at their […]

A reminder of self-love

I received a beautiful gift today — a stunning reminder of this week’s Word of the Week. Thank you Shala! You are brilliant at putting form to my words.

Word of the Week: Self-love Part 2

Great comments my friends! Just thought I’d post a link to this video ‘The girl who looked into the mirror’ produced by Nic Askew as it seems very fitting for our discussion on self love.
Do you need someone else to complete you? What if your intimate relationships could be about celebrating your completeness with someone […]

Word of the Week: Self-love

Last week, I had a few opportunities to get upset or worried about certain situations. In the past, that would have been my chosen path… take it personally, feel disappointed or even like I’d failed. And I would have stayed on that path for quite a while.
But, to my sheer delight, I did life differently. […]
