When you're running as hard as you can just to stay on top of the chaos, it can be hard to spare a thought for your purpose - I totally get it. I spent many years just surviving instead of building a life of passion and purpose that I loved.
But no more.
I've learned my lesson.
It isn't my birthday this month but it sure feels like the world is new and I've been born anew.
Maybe it's a hangover from when I started school each September - those feelings of nervousness and hope combined to make for a very exciting month. I think it's perfect that this is the Jewish New Year and a reason to celebrate all that we've accomplished and prepare for the next season ahead of us.
If you're looking for a way to get yourself, and your family, out of poverty thinking and debt accumulation and into a mindset that will have you paying off debt and building a solid financial future then I highly recommend Trevor Van Nest of York Region Money Coaches.
Yup, I get it... sweat and exercise are probably not your favourite moment in the day, especially if you're a comfort gal, like me.
The good news is, you don't have to become an IronWoman triathlete or run a marathon to be empowered in this area of your purpose-filled life.
What you DO need, I believe, are a few simple ideas for how you can get moving in a healthier, more joyful way, even if you haven't done any intentional physical activity for a loooong time...
It has been a very interesting few weeks. How has your energy been?
A lot of the people I mentor with and follow have been talking about energy lately - how the energy has been kind of wacky. It's the summer and we should be OUT THERE and BIG and shining our light...
Well, it's definitely summer.
Not just on the calendar but I can feel it in the hot, hazy humidity and the desire to kick back with a glass of iced tea and read a trashy novel.
What does summer mean to you? Is it chaos with the kids at home or calm at the family cottage? Or a mix of both?
As for me...
Have you had that moment yet where you realize that if you don't start caring for your body then you're going to be in for a rocky ride?
I've had it. I started getting occasional knee pain and I have this rib that pops out if I spend too much time on the computer.
When I run my workshops I find that many of us are not taking proper care of our own health needs. We are running on empty and so tired that we don't have time to figure out how to really take control of our business.
In order for you to build your heart-centred business, and create work-life balance, you need to take care of yourself. Too often we allow our lives to run us into the ground and it has to stop if you want to be as powerful in the world as you can be.
Experience the peace in our Healing Temple...
Is February starting to drag you down? Or have you been seeing that the sun is coming up a bit earlier every day and feeling the stirrings of Spring?
Spring is just around the corner and I'm really looking forward to March. We're moving along with the (seemingly endless) renovations here at the house and I'm excited that, as of April, my office will be moving back home.
