When the Body Says NO
It is always important to know when something has reached its end. Closing circles, shutting doors, finishing chapters, it doesn’t matter what we call it; what matters is to leave in the past those moments in life that are over.

Greetings to all my precious people!!
We are in the midst of restore and release, aligning our focus to Spring – the time of renewal. Are you feeling the energetics yet? The urge to purge, the desire to rearrange things, the need to finally tend to the stuff that has been piling up in the land of “someday.” Many times these prompts for change are signaled by the body speaking its language with emotions and physical sensations that beg to be acknowledged. But more often than not, the feelings and bodily twinges become those darned symptoms that annoy or irritate us.

Greetings to all my precious people!!
It is the first day of March in a leap year!! And still, the remnants of Winter remain. During this transitional phase, warm sunny days are mixed with cold rainy moments as the Earth moves in her cyclical shifting pattern. Mother Nature continues to be our best teacher as she adapts and moves forward, mirroring our own Life pivots and shifts. We acknowledge the quiet phase of Winter for surely it is a reminder of the trust and faith we have that Spring will appear. These seasonal patterns reflect life lessons in persistence, patience, and promise.
