Yesterday My Fear Immobilized Me

By Awareness, Business Growth, Happiness, Healing, Love, mindshift, Personal Growth, Self Care, Success No Comments

Yesterday, I spent the entire day in bed watching movies and playing games on my iPad. I listened to a whole book in the morning (fiction). I skipped exercise class. I didn’t run my client payments that were due. I told myself. “It’s ok to take today off and rest”. “You work hard”. “Relax and take it easy”. “You deserve this!”, as I massaged the growing tension and pain in my right hip and lower back. This morning, I sat…

The ONE Thing That Changes EVERYTHING!

By Awareness, Business Growth, Happiness, mindshift, Personal Growth, Self Care, Success No Comments

As we stand at the beginning of another year, it is tempting to get swept up in the narrative of “New Year. New You!” And all the changes you are going to “Make 2020 your best year yet!”. Truth be told, it can get overwhelming really fast when you start to try to make big changes or change too many things at once. As someone who has transformed my own life and reinvented myself many times I can certainly attest…

The Black Lotus Flower

By Awareness, mindshift, Personal Growth No Comments

I was recently participating in a guided visualization exercise, led by my friend Lisa Berkovitz, intended to energize and amplify the actualization of an intention. After choosing a specific intention, Lisa took us through a quick process to connect with our higher selves. Then we imagined ourselves standing in a column of golden light with our palms cupped to receive a symbol from Source that would serve to amplify our intentions. As I looked down, a black lotus flower appeared in…

Relationship Lessons learned on the tennis court

By Awareness, Happiness, Love, Personal Growth No Comments

Last week I went to play tennis with my husband and son. We were playing “French Tennis” – 2 against 1. My husband and I on one side as a team against our athletic, super fit, 20 year old college student. I have been excited to get back on the tennis court as I used to play regularly when I was in my 30’s, but haven’t played in years. Last winter I noticed the tennis courts across from our complex…

Savoring It All

By Business Growth, Happiness, Personal Growth, Self Care, Success No Comments

I’ve spent the last 2 weeks slowing down. Coming down off the high of yet another successful transformational event. Facilitating people finding their voices, releasing old limiting beliefs and stepping into new possibilities for themselves. Inviting them to choose from love vs fear and desire vs obligation. I came to Jamaica to visit with family and sink my energetic roots deep into the country of my birth. I realized many moons ago this is necessary for me to do at…

The Freedom Tools – EFT

By mindshift, Personal Growth, Self Care, Success No Comments

I love tapping! (Emotional Freedom Technique) it is one of the ‘freedom tools’ I use and teach to my clients. Here’s an example of why I love it. A few months ago, I’d been feeling increasingly frustrated at my lack of action to complete the book I’ve been writing. I was out of integrity with my commitment to myself to complete it and I was having a field day judging myself for that! Ugh! A little context might be helpful……

Falling In Love With Yourself

By Awareness, Love, Personal Growth, Self Care No Comments

My new book is entitled “P.A.I.N. – An Invitation to Self Love”. It contains much of the wisdom, knowledge and understanding that I’ve gained through many decades of working with people in physical and emotional pain and, the journey of healing my own. What I’ve learned is that every painful experience of our life is an opportunity. To heal, understand, grow, connect. To shift in some way, our relationship with ourselves. That physical pain? An opportunity to Pay. Attention. Inside….

Blowing The Doors Off My Story

By Abundance, Healing, Personal Growth No Comments

Blowing the doors off my story! A cousin of mine posted a picture of my siblings and a group of cousins from our childhood that I had never seen before on FB. My sister and I were in the center, “dressed to the nines” in dresses with matching stockings (who wears stockings in the Jamaican heat? 😄). I even had a purse in my hand! My response to seeing the picture was one of pure shock! It BLEW the lid…

The Things We Run From

By Awareness, Business Growth, Happiness, Healing, mindshift, Personal Growth, Power, Success No Comments

Have you ever noticed how much time and money we spend distracting ourselves? The multi-billion dollar “entertainment industry” solely exists to cater to this desire. God forbid we should feel bored, disappointed, confused, angry, sad, afraid, or overwhelmed (which is simply a cluster of unidentified emotions). In the space of ‘doing nothing’ we are confronted with our thoughts and emotions and our unwillingness to be with them. It can be downright scary to sit with or face the aspects ourselves…

How to Recognize When You Need Self-Care

How to Recognize When You Need Self-Care

By Awareness, happines, Personal Growth No Comments

Self Care. Sometimes it can feel like a dirty word (or more accurately, two dirty words) Taking care of yourself can feel like yet another thing on your already full plate. If you’re a caregiver/caretaker for others, you may not have anything left over at the end of the day for yourself. Boy have I been there and done that! As a woman, a mother, a wife, I had been conditioned to nurture and nourish others, to put myself last….
