Month: April 2023

If it triggers you, it’s showing you where you still need to heal. I had this experience twice in the past week. It wasn’t fun or comfortable or even easy to confront. But I’m grateful for it.

I was reminded of how much work I have yet to do. And I was reminded how two different people have simply run their course in my life. Not everyone who starts on our journey is meant to be with us at the destination. These two people aren’t headed in the direction I want to go for myself. And they aren’t living lives I energetically want to be connected with. If I’m completely honest…it’s just not energy I want to be around or near.

But I still have a lot of healing yet to do. So I’m grateful for those moments of insight. They hurt at the time, but it put the spotlight back on me. I realized I had to take responsibility for my role and my behavior.

Sometimes it’s not about forgiving other people as much as it is about forgiving ourselves. For being triggered, for being reactive (when we know better), for being unhealed.

Then the real work of healing can begin.

People who spend their lives going in circles never get anywhere. They never really accomplish anything. Other than a lot of wasted time and energy. A lot of the time, they’re always thinking there’s something better. So they leave to go find it. Then they realize the thing they had wasn’t that bad to begin with. So they go back to it.

Jobs. Relationships. Neighborhoods. They live their lives literally just moving in circles.

An easy way to stop this is to figure out what you really want for yourself. And why. And then to admit that there is always going to be a better thing out there. Always. But progress isn’t about going in circles. It’s about moving forward. However slowly it might take you. Forward movement is still forward movement.

Once you’re clear on what you really want…and once you know what fulfills you…your life will start to progress forward. It’s time to stop living your life in circles.

If you are looking for a natural alternative to keeping bugs and spiders away, consider peppermint oil. Pretty much all pests hate the smell.

Peppermint oil is easy to find and it’s inexpensive. Just sprinkle it along the door/entry way to your living space. Or among windowsills. Anywhere you think pests are using to get inside.

Bonus: it smells good when the breeze blows the scent through your home.

Healing is hard. Really. It’s probably one of the hardest endeavors you will undertake. Not just the physical kind…but the emotional kind. Healing from grief and loss. Either because someone literally passed away or because they left your life emotionally.

Truth be told, I’ve been struggling with a loss for two years now. Two years. And I keep waiting for the day when I will realize I didn’t think about this person and the situation once. And when one day will turn into two in a row. But I haven’t even experienced one.

There are times when I feel stronger. More “in my power.” More in control and confident of the direction I’m going in. And then says like a few days ago that set me back. Way back. Into a crying mess. And I thought, it’s been two years…how much longer is this going to last?

Why am I not healing?! Why am I not healed?!

Well. I am healing. It’s a process. And it’s not linear. At all. But don’t think that because there are set backs that the healing isn’t happening. It is. The back and forth is part of it.

Give yourself credit. It’s not easy. And it’s not quick. The more emotional or empathetic you are, the longer it’s going to take. But you are healing. Just keep going. And be patient with yourself and with the process…

You’ve probably read that having a strong core can prevent a lot of injuries. It helps with back and hip pain, it helps you maintain your balance (so it wards off falls). And it will help you in pretty much any athletic endeavor.

But a strong center is also important in an emotional and spiritual sense. The strength you get from knowing who you are and what you’re about will see you through a lot of challenging situations. And it will also help prevent you falling…in with a bad crowd or with ideas and a lifestyle that isn’t meant for you.

So go do some planks and also get very secure with yourself. It will help you in ways you cant even imagine….

…you have to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Not forever. But at least at first. This is why so many people never attempt growth or change to begin with. They don’t like the idea of being uncomfortable.

And if that’s the case, you won’t ever grow. And nothing will ever change for you. Unless a force outside of yourself ushers in the change for you. Sometimes that will happen no matter what. But that’s not a very assertive approach to living your life.

Make peace with discomfort. Or as the saying goes, get comfortable being uncomfortable. It’s time to get strong.

Standing up tall is important. Not just for your posture and digestion, but for your spirit. If you don’t believe me, sit or stand and slouch. Hunch your shoulders forward, look down.

Now sit or stand straight. Eyes ahead. Gaze forward. You can even stick your chest out a little bit.

Notice the difference?

You just feel different. And that feeling can be a part of everything you do. And people will notice it. A sense of pride and confidence. Assertiveness.

Stand tall.

Venus starts her transit through Gemini today. A time for chatty, flirty, curious energy. Especially with your approach to love.

Personally, this isn’t a placement I like. A person with their Venus in Gemini always needs constant stimulation. They get bored easily and are always looking for the next best thing. So they have a hard time completely committing. They can be prone to cheating or just going from “relationship” to “relationship.”

But it can be good energy for switching things up – however that might resonate with you. And expect a lot of chatty talk.

You deserve rest. We’ve found a way to glorify being busy all the time. And while there’s some good in that, it also comes with consequences. Like exhaustion and burn out. Nothing good ever came from deprivation. And not getting enough sleep will cause an avalanche of bad things to happen to your body.

Aside of simply being tired and it getting under eye circles, it interferes with your appetite, with your body’s way of literally healing itself. It raises your blood pressure and can make you easily angered.

It’s not good.

So rest. Every night make a commitment to get real, quality sleep. You deserve it. And your body and spirit literally need it.

You can do this every day or week or month. Pick a thing, just one, and commit to doing it every day. Drink an extra glass of water, not add sugar to your coffee or tea, take the stairs, park far away from the door/entrance, eat one extra fruit or vegetable today…whatever it is. Just one healthy thing.

When people try to overhaul their diets and their lives, it gets overwhelming. It’s easier to do it one thing at a time. It might take longer but you’re more likely to stick with the change you’re making.

If you do this for each month starting now, by the end of 2023 you’ll have changed nine things. Given up nine bad habits and/or incorporated nine good ones. That’s a lot. Why not start that right now?
