Send us a textEver wondered why some manifestations seem stuck on the edge of appearing while others feel like you're forcing them into existence? The answer lies in the delicate dance between masculine and feminine energies – the fundamental creative forces behind all manifestation.Most spiritual teachings touch on these energies, but few explain how to practically apply them in daily life. Masculine energy isn't just about being a provider or protector, just as feminine energy isn't merely about being pretty or nurturing. These energies represent core principles: masculine brings structure, action, and discipline while feminine offers creativity, intuition, and receptivity. Like breathing in and out, we need both in harmony.The magic happens at what I call "the balance point." When we recognize which energy to lead with in different situations, our manifestations flow naturally. Business requires masculine structure, but without feminine intuition, you'll burn out. Relationships need feminine connection, but without masculine boundaries, they lack foundation. The signs of imbalance are clear – burnout and perfectionism signal too much masculine energy, while perpetual waiting and almost-manifestations indicate an overreliance on feminine energy.Ready for transformation? Try my four-step manifestation framework: begin with masculine clarity (setting a vision), add feminine embodiment (connecting to the feeling), create masculine structure (developing an action plan), and practice feminine surrender (allowing divine timing). This balanced approach isn't about becoming someone else but about making small tweaks that yield powerful results.Whether you're building a business, calling in a soulmate relationship, or simply seeking more joy, balancing these energies is your path to success. Remember – structure isn't punishment but support that creates the freedom your soul craves. Take a moment now to reflect: which energy do you naturally lead with, and where might you benefit from more balance?The Portal Membership – Making progress but wondering why things aren't next level clicking?

In this episode of The Streaking Podcast, Jeff challenges the common advice to "get out of your comfort zone" and presents a more effective approach: expanding your comfort zone through small, consistent actions.

Backed by neuroscience and real-life examples—including his own experiences with public speaking—he explains how streaking helps build confidence, skill, and resilience over time. Tune in to learn why consistency, not intensity, is the key to sustainable growth and how you can set streaks that make personal and professional development feel natural. Keep streaking!

Join my 5 Day Online New Year Course, The Self & Soul Reset Here!Check out my new meditation album here! My latest journal, the Your Mindful Journal is here! This is a fun and uplifting episode where I share my own stories about a huge money shift I've recently experienced, as well as chatting with my husband Luke about a new job he manifested. I started recording this podcast on August the 1st, as I was in a completely negative headspace with money. In return, I was receiving bills, less pay - negative outcome after negative outcome. I knew I was attracting it all myself because money is just energy. Previously I have changed my relationship with money from a negative one to a positive one, so I knew I could do it again. This time, I wanted to document it for you. I then picked up recording this episode in December, after I had achieved what I wanted to! I had changed my relationship with money. I effortlessly started bringing in money in so many areas that felt exciting, passionate and EASY! And I tell you the steps I took to get there in this episode. To finish off the episode, I brought in my husband, Luke to the studio. He shares a manifestation story of his own where he chose hope instead of fear, which resulted in a job that was more perfect than he ever could have imagined. It's an inspiring story that you may want to share with your loved ones, who might not be totally convinced by the law of attraction, or maybe just need a little bit of inspiration. Luke could have easily leant into fear - instead, he took actionable steps, remained optimistic and trusted the process. Also - what are your thoughts on Luke and I recording some Children's meditations?Pass Around the Smile's Links belowView my website here!

The Art of Compassionate Listening Cultivating Understanding and Empathy In our fast-paced, technology-driven world, the art of truly listening has become a rare commodity. We are often so consumed by our own thoughts, distractions, and the need to respond quickly that we fail to fully engage in the act of listening. However, compassionate listening is a powerful tool that can foster deeper understanding, empathy, and meaningful connections with others. What is Compassionate Listening? Compassionate listening goes beyond simply hearing the words someone is saying. It involves actively and intentionally listening with an open mind and heart, free from judgment or the need to formulate a response. It requires us to be fully present, attentive, and focused on the speaker, allowing their words, emotions, and experiences to resonate within us. When we practice compassionate listening, we create a safe space for others to express themselves freely, without fear of being interrupted, criticized, or dismissed. This act of genuine presence and acceptance can be profoundly healing and validating for the speaker, fostering a sense of being truly heard and understood. The Benefits of Compassionate Listening Cultivating the art of compassionate listening can have far-reaching benefits for both the listener and the speaker: 1. Deeper Connections: By actively listening with empathy and understanding, we create stronger, more meaningful connections with others. This can improve personal and professional relationships, fostering trust and mutual respect. 2. Increased Self-Awareness: When we listen compassionately, we become more attuned to our own thoughts, feelings, and biases. This self-awareness can lead to personal growth and a greater capacity for self-reflection. 3. Conflict Resolution: Compassionate listening can help diffuse tense situations and resolve conflicts by creating an environment of mutual understanding and respect. It allows both parties to feel heard and validated, paving the way for constructive dialogue and compromise. 4. Improved Communication: By actively listening and seeking to understand others, we enhance our communication skills and become better communicators ourselves. This can lead to more effective collaboration, problem-solving, and decision-making. Cultivating the Art of Compassionate Listening Developing the skill of compassionate listening takes practice and intentionality. Here are some tips to help you cultivate this invaluable art: 1. Be Present: Eliminate distractions and give the speaker your undivided attention. Maintain eye contact, nod, and use affirmative body language to show you are engaged. 2. Suspend Judgment: Approach the conversation with an open mind and heart. Resist the urge to formulate a response or counterargument while the other person is speaking. 3. Ask Clarifying Questions: If you're unsure about something, ask respectful questions to gain a deeper understanding of the speaker's perspective. 4. Reflect and Validate: Periodically summarize or rephrase what the speaker has said to ensure you've understood correctly and to validate their experience. 5. Practice Empathy: Strive to understand the speaker's emotions, motivations, and experiences, even if they differ from your own. Imagine yourself in their shoes. Compassionate listening is a powerful act of kindness and respect. By cultivating this art, we create a more understanding, empathetic, and connected world, one conversation at a time. Embrace the power of truly listening, and watch as barriers dissolve and meaningful connections flourish.

The Path to Forgiveness: Freeing Yourself from Resentment Holding onto resentment is like carrying a heavy weight that slows you down and prevents you from moving forward in life. Resentment can stem from feeling wronged, betrayed, or hurt by someone else's actions. While it's a natural human response, allowing resentment to fester can be toxic, impacting your mental and physical well-being. The path to forgiveness is not always easy, but it's a journey worth taking to free yourself from the burden of resentment. Understanding Resentment Resentment is a complex emotion that often arises from a sense of injustice or mistreatment. It can manifest as anger, bitterness, or a desire for revenge. When we hold onto resentment, we relive the hurt and pain over and over again, preventing us from healing and moving on. Resentment can lead to stress, anxiety, depression, and even physical health problems if left unchecked. The Benefits of Forgiveness Forgiveness is not about condoning or excusing the actions of others; it's about releasing the negative emotions that are weighing you down. When you forgive, you free yourself from the chains of resentment and open the door to inner peace and emotional well-being. Forgiveness has been shown to have numerous benefits, including: 1. Improved mental health: Forgiveness can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, leading to a more positive outlook on life. 2. Better physical health: Holding onto resentment can contribute to high blood pressure, heart disease, and other health issues. Forgiveness can help alleviate these physical symptoms. 3. Stronger relationships: Forgiveness can help repair damaged relationships and foster a deeper sense of understanding and compassion. 4. Personal growth: The act of forgiveness requires self-reflection and a willingness to let go of negative emotions, which can lead to personal growth and self-awareness. The Path to Forgiveness Forgiveness is a journey, and it may take time and effort to reach a place of true forgiveness. Here are some steps you can take to embark on this path: 1. Acknowledge your feelings: Recognize and validate your emotions, whether it's anger, hurt, or sadness. Suppressing these feelings will only prolong the resentment. 2. Practice empathy: Try to understand the other person's perspective, even if you don't agree with their actions. This can help you gain insight and move towards forgiveness. 3. Let go of expectations: Release the idea that the other person will apologize or make amends. Forgiveness is a personal choice, and it's not dependent on the actions of others. 4. Focus on self-care: Engage in activities that promote your well-being, such as exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones. Taking care of yourself can help you cultivate a more positive mindset. 5. Seek support: If you're struggling with forgiveness, consider seeking the guidance of a therapist, counselor, or trusted friend who can provide a listening ear and valuable insights. Forgiveness is a powerful act of self-love and personal growth. By letting go of resentment, you create space for joy, peace, and fulfillment in your life. Embrace the path to forgiveness, and experience the freedom that comes with releasing the burdens of the past.

If you like, please subscribe for more! Unplugging for Peace: How Disconnecting Can Reconnect You In a world that's constantly connected, taking time to unplug can seem like a luxury. However, unplugging from technology and the digital world can have profound benefits for our mental and emotional well-being. In this blog, we'll explore the art of unplugging and how it can help you reconnect with yourself and find peace in a busy world. The Digital Detox: Why It's Important Constant exposure to screens and digital devices can lead to increased stress, anxiety, and a sense of being constantly "on." Taking a break from technology allows your brain to rest and recharge, leading to improved focus, creativity, and overall mental health. Reconnecting with Nature One of the best ways to unplug is to spend time in nature. Whether it's a hike in the mountains, a walk on the beach, or simply sitting in a park, nature has a way of grounding us and helping us reconnect with ourselves. The sights, sounds, and smells of nature can be incredibly soothing and can help reduce stress and anxiety. Mindful Moments Unplugging also gives us the opportunity to be more mindful and present in our daily lives. When we're not constantly checking our phones or scrolling through social media, we can fully immerse ourselves in the present moment and appreciate the world around us. Strengthening Relationships Unplugging can also help us strengthen our relationships with others. When we're not distracted by technology, we can focus on spending quality time with loved ones, having meaningful conversations, and creating lasting memories. Tips for Unplugging Set aside dedicated time each day to unplug, such as during meals or before bed. Create tech-free zones in your home, such as the bedroom or dining room. Engage in activities that don't require technology, such as reading, hiking, or gardening. Use apps or tools that can help you limit your screen time and track your digital habits. The Benefits of Unplugging Reduced stress and anxiety Improved focus and creativity Better sleep quality Stronger relationships Increased mindfulness and presence In a world that's always connected, taking time to unplug and disconnect can be a powerful way to reconnect with yourself and find peace in a busy world. Whether it's spending time in nature, engaging in mindful activities, or simply setting aside dedicated tech-free time each day, unplugging can have profound benefits for your mental and emotional well-being. So, why not take a break from your devices and see how unplugging can help you reconnect with yourself and find peace in your life.
Honoring Your Body: The Temple of Your Soul | Guiding Lights Series Ep.37 Visit our sponsor! or call them at 570-592-6258 For more positivity, good news, and uplifting messages visit: Thank you for listening! If you like, please subscribe for more! Honoring Your Body: The Temple of Your Soul In our fast-paced lives, it's easy to overlook the importance of our bodies. We often push them to their limits, ignoring their signals and neglecting their needs. But our bodies are not just vessels that carry us through life; they are the very temple of our souls. Honoring and caring for our bodies is a crucial part of nurturing our overall well-being. Understanding Your Body as a Temple Just as a temple is a sacred place, our bodies are sacred vessels that house our souls. They enable us to experience the world around us and fulfill our purpose in life. When we treat our bodies with respect and gratitude, we honor the gift of life that we have been given. Caring for Your Body Caring for your body involves more than just basic hygiene. It means nourishing your body with healthy food, staying hydrated, getting enough rest, and engaging in regular physical activity. It also means listening to your body's signals and addressing any issues that arise promptly. Mind-Body Connection The mind-body connection is a powerful relationship that influences our overall health and well-being. When we are stressed or anxious, our bodies respond by releasing hormones that can negatively impact our health. Conversely, when we are calm and at peace, our bodies respond in kind, promoting health and healing. Honoring Your Body Through Self-Care Self-care is an essential part of honoring your body. It involves taking the time to do things that nourish your soul, such as meditating, practicing yoga, or spending time in nature. Self-care also means setting boundaries and saying no to things that drain your energy or compromise your well-being. Our bodies are more than just physical entities; they are sacred vessels that house our souls. Honoring our bodies means caring for them with love and respect, nourishing them with healthy food and positive thoughts, and listening to their needs. By honoring our bodies, we honor the gift of life itself.

Trying new things can help you discover new passions and interests that you may not have considered before. Stay curious and adventurous, and you may find your true calling in unexpected places. Discovering your purpose is a journey that requires self-reflection, openness, and a positive mindset.

Mastering Self-Compassion: A Key to a Positive Mindset Ep. 33 Visit our sponsor! or call them at 570-592-6258 For more positivity, good news, and uplifting messages visit: Thank you for listening! If you like, please subscribe for more! Mastering Self-Compassion: A Key to a Positive Mindset In a world where we often strive for perfection and success, it's easy to be overly critical of ourselves. However, mastering self-compassion can be a powerful tool in cultivating a positive mindset and improving overall well-being. In this article, we'll explore what self-compassion is, why it's important, and how you can cultivate it in your life. What is Self-Compassion? Self-compassion is the act of being kind and understanding towards oneself, especially in times of struggle or failure. It involves recognizing our own humanity, acknowledging our flaws and mistakes, and treating ourselves with the same kindness and empathy that we would offer to a friend. Why is Self-Compassion Important? Self-compassion is important for several reasons. First and foremost, it can help improve our mental health and well-being. Research has shown that self-compassionate individuals are less likely to experience depression, anxiety, and stress, and are more likely to have higher levels of happiness and life satisfaction. Additionally, self-compassion can also lead to greater resilience in the face of challenges. By treating ourselves with kindness and understanding, we are better able to bounce back from setbacks and failures, and approach future challenges with a positive mindset. How to Cultivate Self-Compassion 1. Practice Mindfulness: Mindfulness involves being present in the moment and observing your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Mindfulness can help you become more aware of your self-critical thoughts and replace them with more compassionate ones. 2. Treat Yourself Like a Friend: When you're going through a tough time, imagine what you would say to a friend in a similar situation. Offer yourself the same words of kindness and support that you would offer to a loved one. 3. Practice Self-Care: Taking care of your physical and emotional needs is an important part of self-compassion. Make time for activities that nourish your body and soul, such as exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones. 4. Challenge Your Inner Critic: We all have an inner critic that can be harsh and unforgiving. When you notice your inner critic speaking, challenge its validity. Ask yourself if what it's saying is really true, or if there's a more compassionate way to view the situation. 5. Seek Support: Sometimes, practicing self-compassion can be challenging, especially if you've been self-critical for a long time. Seeking support from a therapist or counselor can help you develop more self-compassionate ways of thinking and behaving. Mastering self-compassion is a journey that can lead to a more positive mindset and a greater sense of well-being. By treating ourselves with kindness and understanding, we can improve our mental health, build resilience, and cultivate a deeper sense of self-acceptance and self-love.
From Chaos to Calm: Creating a Peaceful Home Environment Ep. 32 Visit our sponsor! For more positivity, good news, and uplifting messages visit: Thank you for listening! If you like, please subscribe for more! From Chaos to Calm: Creating a Peaceful Home Environment In the hustle and bustle of modern life, finding peace and tranquility at home can feel like a challenge. However, creating a peaceful home environment is essential for our well-being, helping to reduce stress, improve mental clarity, and enhance overall happiness. In this article, we'll explore practical tips and strategies to transform your home from a place of chaos to a haven of calm. Declutter and Organize One of the first steps in creating a peaceful home environment is to declutter and organize your space. Clutter can lead to feelings of overwhelm and can make it difficult to relax. Start by going through each room and getting rid of items you no longer need or use. Organize the remaining items in a way that is both functional and visually pleasing. Create a Relaxing Atmosphere The atmosphere of your home plays a significant role in how peaceful it feels. Consider incorporating elements that promote relaxation, such as soothing colors, natural materials, and soft lighting. Candles, essential oils, and calming music can also help create a peaceful ambiance. Establish Daily Routines Having daily routines can help create a sense of structure and stability in your home. Establish routines for tasks such as cleaning, meal times, and bedtime to create a sense of order. This can help reduce stress and create a more peaceful environment for everyone in the household. Designate Quiet Spaces Having designated quiet spaces in your home can provide a retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Create a cozy reading nook, meditation corner, or relaxation area where you can unwind and recharge. Limit Technology Use Technology can be a major source of distraction and can disrupt the peace of your home. Set boundaries around technology use, such as establishing tech-free zones or implementing screen-free times during the day. Practice Mindfulness Mindfulness is the practice of being present and fully engaged in the moment. Incorporating mindfulness into your daily life can help you appreciate the simple joys of home and can enhance feelings of peace and contentment. Creating a peaceful home environment is a valuable investment in your well-being. By decluttering and organizing, creating a relaxing atmosphere, establishing daily routines, designating quiet spaces, limiting technology use, and practicing mindfulness, you can transform your home into a haven of calm. Incorporate these strategies into your life and watch as your home becomes a place of peace and serenity.
This episode is a little bit of a magical mess! My intention was to create your go-to episode for when you're needing a bit of a positive pick me up! I chat about creating positive flow, balance and fulfilment - and chat about how as humans, we are quick to allow a downward spiral, but what about allowing a positive spiral? It's just as easy, if not easier! And I think we all know what we would rather.We discuss manifestation and how the law of attraction can work to our advantage, or disadvantage, depending on what energy we are putting out. Something I have found blocks my manifestations from materialising, is when I'm working toward something that I don't actually want. It sounds strange, but so many of us do it! Often we can be trying to manifest a goal that we set years ago, but maybe now it doesn't align anymore … or we can be trying to manifest something because society says we should have it by this time, or other people deem it as cool, fun or successful. Checking in with yourself and what you want is one of the first steps to create positive flow! We also chat about disappointment and pressure and how we can alleviate both of those feelings!

Summary In this episode, Jeffery Downs discusses the importance of streaks in navigating through change. He shares personal experiences of various changes in his life and how streaks have helped him stay grounded and focused. Jeffery emphasizes the significance of consistent inputs and the need to prioritize them over outcomes. He quotes from the book 'Think Like a Rocket Scientist' to highlight the value of an input-focused mind and the dangers of focusing solely on outcomes. Jeffery encourages listeners to embrace streaks as a way to build internal strength and achieve extraordinary results. Takeaways Streaks provide a solid foundation during times of change and uncertainty. Consistent inputs are more important than immediate outcomes.

If you like, please subscribe for more! Reconnecting with Nature for Inner Peace and Balance Ep. 27 Embracing Our Roots In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to lose touch with our natural surroundings. We often see ourselves as separate from nature, living in concrete jungles rather than among the trees and rivers. However, this perception is fundamentally flawed. We are not separate from nature; we are a part of it. Understanding and embracing this connection can lead to profound benefits for our well-being. Recognizing Our Connection From the air we breathe to the food we eat, every aspect of our lives is intertwined with nature. Our bodies are made of the same elements found in the stars, and our existence is dependent on the delicate balance of ecosystems around us. Yet, modern lifestyles have created a disconnect, leading to feelings of isolation and disorientation. Reconnecting with Nature Reconnecting with nature doesn't require a drastic lifestyle change. It can be as simple as taking a walk in the park, tending to a garden, or listening to the sounds of birds outside your window. By immersing ourselves in natural environments, we can begin to feel a sense of peace and harmony that is often lacking in our daily lives. Benefits of Reconnection Studies have shown that spending time in nature can have a profound impact on our mental and physical well-being. It reduces stress, anxiety, and depression, while also improving mood, creativity, and cognitive function. Nature has a way of calming our minds and reminding us of what is truly important in life. Practical Tips for Reconnection Spend time outdoors: Whether it's a hike in the mountains or a picnic in the park, make an effort to spend more time in natural surroundings. Unplug from technology: Take a break from screens and immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of nature. Practice mindfulness: Pay attention to the present moment and fully experience your surroundings without judgment. Connect with living things: Whether it's through gardening, caring for pets, or simply observing wildlife, find ways to connect with other living beings. By recognizing our connection to nature and taking steps to reconnect, we can find greater peace, balance, and meaning in our lives. Nature has a way of grounding us and reminding us of our place in the world. So, the next time you feel overwhelmed or disconnected, take a step outside and embrace the beauty of the natural world.
Hello! Today's episode was inspired by a few little happenings in my life recently, where I have found myself trying to explain/justify/please others - before myself, in the hope that others understand my reasoning behind why I do what I do in certain situations. What I've learnt recently, is that as humans, we waste SO much time and precious energy trying to prove ourselves to others - in the hope that others will perceive us as right, kind, successful etc.Not only are we wasting energy in these moments, we are not honouring who we are. We aren't feeling worthy of our decisions, and we are giving power away to others in the hope to get approval or validation. In turn, the energy we adapt during these times is the energy we get back, because what we project is a reflection of what we are feeling inside. This is why you can be working so hard on manifesting a certain thing, person, experience or outcome - and find yourself meeting block after block.I open up about a few personal experiences where I have felt the exhausting need to prove myself where it really wasn't necessary. I found I was manifesting more negativity into my life by constantly talking about how ‘tired I was' and how I was ‘struggling to keep up.' My intention was to prove to others why I was a different version of myself and share my excuses as to why I was late with replies, or cancelling catch ups for validation. However what I was really doing was manifesting more of that negativity into my life, by constantly talking about it. If I felt worthy in those moments, I wouldn't have felt the need to justify and prove myself to others in the first place! Here is the link the my episode on accountability!

However, the benefits of nurturing your physical, mental, and emotional well-being cannot be overstated. In this article, we'll explore the top advantages of practicing self-care and provide actionable strategies to weave this essential practice into your daily life. 1. Enhanced Mental Health: Engaging in self-care activities has a profound impact on mental health. Taking time for relaxation, mindfulness, and stress reduction can alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression. Incorporate activities like meditation, deep breathing exercises, or simply unplugging from digital devices to promote mental clarity and emotional balance. 2. Increased Resilience to Stress: Regular self-care acts as a buffer against the inevitable stressors of life. When you prioritize your well-being, you equip yourself with the tools to navigate challenges more effectively. This resilience not only helps you cope with stress but also fosters a positive outlook in the face of adversity. 3. Improved Physical Health: Self-care extends beyond mental and emotional well-being to positively impact your physical health. Adequate sleep, regular exercise, and a balanced diet are fundamental components of self-care that contribute to overall vitality. Prioritize activities that promote good physical health, such as regular exercise, nutritious meals, and sufficient rest. 4. Enhanced Productivity and Focus: Taking breaks and incorporating self-care into your routine can enhance productivity and focus. Whether it's a short walk, a brief meditation session, or a moment of mindfulness, these pauses recharge your mental batteries and improve your ability to concentrate on tasks. 5. Better Relationships: Self-care is not selfish; it's a prerequisite for nurturing healthy relationships. When you take care of yourself, you're better equipped to give and receive love and support. Setting boundaries, communicating effectively, and managing stress contribute to more fulfilling connections with others. 6. Increased Self-Esteem: Prioritizing self-care communicates a powerful message to yourself—that you are worthy of love and attention. As you invest time in activities that bring you joy and fulfillment, your self-esteem grows. This positive self-perception radiates in various aspects of your life. 7. Greater Work-Life Balance: Balancing professional and personal responsibilities is a perpetual challenge. Incorporating self-care into your routine helps establish a healthier work-life equilibrium. Set realistic boundaries, designate time for leisure activities, and learn to say 'no' when necessary to avoid burnout. Practical Strategies for Better Self-Care: 1. Create a Self-Care Routine: Establish a routine that incorporates self-care activities daily or weekly. Whether it's a morning ritual, an evening routine, or designated self-care days, consistency is key. 2. Listen to Your Body and Mind: Pay attention to signs of fatigue, stress, or burnout. Respond to your body and mind's cues by incorporating rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation into your routine. 3. Set Boundaries: Learn to say 'no' when necessary and establish clear boundaries to protect your time and energy. Setting limits is essential for maintaining a healthy balance in your life. 4. Explore Different Self-Care Activities: Experiment with various self-care activities to discover what resonates with you. This could include activities like reading, hiking, yoga, journaling, or artistic pursuits. 5. Prioritize Sleep: Ensure you get enough quality sleep. Establish a consistent sleep routine, create a comfortable sleep environment, and limit screen time before bedtime for better sleep quality. Embracing self-care is a transformative journey toward holistic well-being. By recognizing the benefits of self-care and integrating practical strategies into your daily life, you empower yourself to navigate life's challenges with resilience, maintain positive relationships, and foster a sense of fulfillment and balance. Remember, self-care is not a luxury; it's an essential investment in your overall health and happiness.

In this episode I continue to share this magical, hard, amazing, transformative journey as honestly as possible!I have been feeling all of the emotions as I ride this hormonal wave in the fourth trimester. (And I didn't realise how intense the fourth trimester is! I have since learned it's actually labelled as the biggest part of pregnancy emotionally, and I believe that!) I have felt extreme amounts of love and happiness, while also feeling completely fearful. However the most prominent feeling I have felt is a nostalgic feeling where I almost feel I am mourning my pre-pregnancy self, my pregnant self and my birth.What I have realised in the fourth trimester, is that I'm ‘spiritually frustrated.' I'm in a constant state of reflection as I'm terrified I will forget what pregnancy, the birth and the first few days of motherhood felt like. I didn't expect to miss these parts so much. Because I had the most spiritually heightened experience of my life during birth, I am left a little frustrated with my current spiritual connections. I'm feeling like they aren't enough. While I am and will forever be so grateful to have experienced that, it has given me very high expectations of what I can see/feel spiritually.I also chat about sweating the small stuff and how having Indigo has put everything into perspective for me. I have also realised that self worth is the foundation of EVERYTHING when it comes to self development ... sweating the small stuff being one of them!

9 Reasons Why Forgiving is Important Ep. 12 Our website Visit our sponsors of this episode The Liberating Power of Forgiveness Forgiveness is a transformative act that liberates the heart and soul from the burden of resentment and anger. While it may seem difficult at times, choosing to forgive is crucial for our own well-being and growth. In this blog, we'll explore the profound reasons why forgiveness is essential and how it can lead us to experience inner peace, healing, and personal growth. 1. Emotional Healing and Inner Peace One of the primary reasons forgiveness is important is its ability to promote emotional healing and inner peace. Holding onto grudges and past hurts weighs heavily on our hearts and minds, causing prolonged suffering. When we forgive, we release ourselves from the emotional pain and find a sense of tranquility within. 2. Breaking the Cycle of Negativity Choosing to forgive breaks the cycle of negativity that can perpetuate in our lives. By letting go of resentments, we stop dwelling on negative thoughts and emotions, allowing room for positivity and joy to thrive. 3. Enhancing Relationships Forgiveness plays a pivotal role in strengthening our relationships with others. When we forgive, we foster empathy and understanding, which paves the way for healthier and more authentic connections with those around us. 4. Empowerment and Self-Love Forgiving is an act of self-empowerment and self-love. It shows that we value our own well-being and mental peace enough to release the grip of hurtful experiences. Forgiving ourselves for past mistakes is equally vital, as it enables personal growth and self-acceptance. 5. Resilience in Adversity Through forgiveness, we cultivate resilience in the face of adversity. It allows us to bounce back from challenging situations with grace and strength, rather than being consumed by bitterness or anger. 6. Liberation from the Past The past can sometimes haunt us, hindering our progress and growth. Forgiveness liberates us from the shackles of the past, enabling us to embrace the present and look forward to the future with hope and optimism. 7. Empathy and Compassion Forgiveness fosters empathy and compassion. It reminds us that everyone makes mistakes and that we, too, seek understanding and empathy when we err. 8. Healing from Trauma Forgiveness can be a powerful tool in the healing process, especially for individuals who have experienced trauma. While it may not erase the pain, forgiveness allows survivors to reclaim their power and find a pathway to healing and recovery. 9. Fostering a Positive Environment When forgiveness becomes a part of our lives, it creates a ripple effect, fostering a more forgiving and compassionate community. Such an environment promotes support and unity among individuals, fostering a sense of belonging and support. Choosing to forgive is an act of courage and strength that brings about profound positive changes in our lives. It allows us to release the weight of past hurts and embrace emotional healing, inner peace, and personal growth. By fostering empathy, compassion, and resilience, forgiveness enriches our relationships and the world around us. Let us remember that forgiveness is not about condoning harmful actions but rather about liberating ourselves from the grip of negativity and embracing a life filled with love, healing, and understanding.
