Coming for the Real You.

I'm hoping to share thoughts, fun and insightful information and aha moments with all to better serve ourselves and the universe.

My background is that of Executive Secretary for the local Electric company (11 years).

Certified Personal Trainer (since 1991) and Fitness Consultant for my own company, Beachin Bodies (6 years) and certified in Reiki and Nutrition with training in Cranial Sacral work, Tai Chi, and Meditation. Certified as a Professional Life Coach (2015); Minister at Universal Life Church (2016);

and, possibly, most important,

my own journey through illness and avenues, roads and roadblocks that I have taken to find the real me. (35 plus years).

The me that I was born as. The me that is the all-knowing. I believe the search is endless and we are here to learn and to love and to share it all.

Goddess

While transferring my belongings to another pocketbook, I pulled out this Goddess stone along with the Hershey paper trail of 'kisses'.   It felt like they went well, even belonged together, so I took the below picture and, eventually, edited it into a black and white.

I have grabbed onto the thought, and taking it as knowledge, that a black and white photo by a doorway could signify water; signify and support ‘flow’ in Feng Shui.  I'm thinking it feels like a perfect time to request for myself and encourage flow in my blogposts and into my life and, just maybe, encourage it in you and your life as well.

Goddess is feminine energy.  Each one of us has feminine energy which consists of traits such as "connection, empathy, nurturing, and emoting.  She is pure energy and flows and changes like the water of a river." unknown   Masculine energy consists of traits such as "strength, courage, independence, leadership, and assertiveness".  unknown

Today, on February 29, 2020, may you make a wish for the kind/type of energy you would like more of in your life and for whatever energy you would like, perhaps, less of as to create a wonderful balance of energies to connect to, create and uplift you and your life; in the greatest, best and easiest way(s) possible.  

May your life be balanced through the yin and the yang that catapults you to the highest vibration(s) available to you just now.

Below is what I shared on social media and I am grateful, honored and hopeful to share it here with You here.

“May you walk with your feet kissing the ground.  Reach out in awe and connection.  Open your mind to the beautiful and the new.  Let your heart beat to the the wild rhythm that is within you.   Float in the energy that comes from your dreams.   Know the power of your own breath.   Live in each moment and know and love thyself.    Embrace the natural order and process of what shows up.  Artfully create, live in and follow the dynamic coming out of the magnificent inner You.           ‘Absolute being; divine nature’.   ...YOU”

May you open to the You that yet awaits.

Romanticize

I woke up this morning feeling an excitement inside of myself.  I feel like there is something exciting going down and I am open to it, ready for it and it is something my life has been preparing me for.

It feels nice.  It is a feeling I remember well.  It is a feeling I enjoy.  It is a feeling, I feel, that I will always enjoy and welcome having.

The word romanticize comes to mind.  May I offer for you to consider what kind of relationship you have with your own self; your own life.

I feel like I’m open to and starting to experience myself through romanticizing my life and my deepest connection available to me.  This deepest possible and available connection, to me, feels like it is the one I can have with myself.

I surely enjoy people.   I surely enjoy being connected in kindness, support and care.  I surely enjoy the feeling of uplifting, empowering connections.

I do not enjoy bullying; one thing I have very rarely been.  So rare, I don't remember an instance.  Yet I know I am not perfect.  I dare say that I never bullied.  

Self-bullying I am certain of doing.

I release everything in me that is self bullying and I open to, enjoy and am excited about my choice to totally connect to myself romanticizing; loving everything I am and offer to myself.

May you release everything in you that is self-bullying and open to your choice to totally connect to your self; romanticizing and loving everything you are and everything that you offer to your self.  

I open to my magic and my dreams.  I open to my own kindness and my own love.  Self support, compassion, forgiveness, mercy and respect are going to be regular things that I do daily and let this become the nature; the natural way of my being.  Permeating me.  The way I live and the way I respond to and through all that I encounter, experience, allow and bear witness to.

I am my light.  I am my healing.  I am my greatest love.

As we honor ourselves, we honor God, our Creator, who created us to be everything we are through love, abundance, wonder and lessons to keep growing, becoming and remembering how to enjoy  and be true to our own needs, wants and desires.

May you let the Best of You permeate through You. 

May You be your magic; your light   The moon, the stars, the sun.  Be the wonder, the love.  Be respectful and kind.

Romanticize your life.  Romanticize yourself.

As you create the greatest enjoyment(s) possible to you, you shine your brightest.  Your light guides others home to themselves. Your self-love empowers others to learn to choose to love themselves.

Romanticizing is not fantasy.   It is open to the joy and the good within all that you do.  Knowing you are fully present as yourself and that you are standing strong within and for yourself enables you to feel safe, loved and excited about the life within you that is ready to live out.

It is so real, that when you commit to yourself, even wild horses couldn’t drag you away.  ha!

Ride the waves of your wild abandonment to love, cherish and be enamored by the love and life you create for and through yourself.

May you live in the awesome wonderment of You.

E. E. Cummings

“Whenever you think or you believe or you know, you’re a lot of other people: but the moment you feel, you’re nobody-but-yourself.”  E. E. Cummings

I just heard this quote the other day.   Then I looked it up and read it.  Then I copied it.  Then I shared it on social media.  Now I very much want to share it with you. 

Through this, it has become my favorite quote just now.   Wow. Wow. Wow.  

Thank you E. E. Cummings.   

I find myself surprised that I have never heard it before.  I’m grateful and excited that I am experiencing it now.  

With so many of us choosing, wanting, being invited or forced to feel or just feeling moreso, it is a very exciting and challenging time for some of us; for many of us.  

     I wrote this to a dear friend of mine today.  

“This morning, I had myself in between dying, being born anew, having it together, falling apart and not sure wth is happening to me.   

Changing.  Less tolerant.  Alone.  Angry.  Blessed.  Honored. Thrilled. Sick.  Hurting. Tired. Aching.  Hopeful.  Praying.  Fat. Skinny.  Pretty.  Ugly.  Done. Starting.   

I am pretty much going through the entire gamut of things (feelings)."  And this was just within a couple of hours.  And I, currently, find it being a repetitive thing.   

I would not consider it fun.  I question if it is necessary.   

I am just now realizing that I have here within myself a bunch of people (according to E. E. Cummings) and the most lovable thing I can do is breathe and feel this moment.

  So, I do.  I breathe.  I feel.  

I immediately feel a silence; a peace; an expansion and a relaxation.   My circulation flows better.  I am able to digest better.  A sense of calm is within me and in the air around me.

Sometimes, the best thing you can do is breathe and feel from the deepest part/space within yourself.

May you do just this.  May you breathe.  May you feel.  May you "Just Be U".  "Just 9Be U"

May you "Grow Yourself Complete"... again and again and again.

Just maybe, this is a great opportune time to pick and choose the things and feelings I wish to carry forward within myself and within my life; and to let go of what feels nasty and undesirable.

May it be so.  And so it is.  Amen.

Maybe it is time for you to pick and choose the things and feelings You wish to carry forward within Yourself and within Your life; and to let go of what feels nasty and undesirable.

Moments/Thoughts/Situations

Stand alone.   Together.

Awareness.  Mindfulness.

Each moment, thought, situation that we experience stands alone in the 'now' moment.  When seeing the wholeness of our days, thinking and experiences they connect and create together who we are and what we feel and step into.

With awareness and mindfulness, we can portray, examine, change, engage in each moment, thought and situation in more than one way at any given time on any given day.

It is our choosing how we react and what we bring into or put out of our lives.

May you choose the thoughts that make you feel and experience yourself in your best way(s).

May you choose the reaction(s) of what you carry with you into or away from each moment.

May you choose the situation you want to participate or not participate in.

You are allowed to be true to you.  You are asked to be true to you by the universe.  When you do be true to You, you honor God (Your Creator) and you honor yourself and you honor all those affected by the ripples of your honesty.  You open doors and minds of more honest moments, thoughts and situations.

May you gather and create the You that you are and want to be in the most uplifting manner available to you.  In every moment, every thought and every situation; as often and as much as possible.

Through your own awareness, mindfulness and truth, so much is available to you and possible.

Reflection

We reflect on our feelings. We reflect on our relationships.  The sun reflects on the water.  Our shadow reflects out connected to us.

We sometimes reflect the moods of others.  Sometimes we are aware that we do. Sometimes it is subconscious and/or at a later time than the moment we experience it.

We reflect out into the world. Our love reflects.  Our cranky - yes I can be cranky - reflects.

Energy and vibes reflect into space and time.

Reflect - meaning from the dictionary
  1. to cast back (light, heat, sound, etc.) from surface: 
  2. to give back or show an image of; mirror. 
  3. (of an act or its result) to serve to cast or bring (credit, discredit, etc.) on its performer. 
  4. to reproduce; show: 
  5. to throw or cast back; cause to return or rebound:
May you realize what you are reflecting out and what you are allowing to be reflected in or onto you.  
I have learned to imagine a group of mirrors all around me (mirror side out) as to protect my energy and reflect all energy back on to where it is coming from.   It bounces off of me and reflects it back.  

May you open to the most positive, beautiful reflections available to you and through you.  

May love, peace, compassion, joy, empathy and lifting one another up be reflected through and to us all.

Thoughts/Shares

Hello to You.  Welcome to a safe place to discover, learn, live and 'Just 9Be U'... "Grow Yourself Complete"...  Again and again and again.   If you want this for you, I surely want it for you too.

Below are some ‘offerings’ I shared with people in the last day or so.   I seem to want to share them with you.   If they resignate or can be helpful - yay.

If not, please disregard.

‘Let [your] energy flow through you.’

‘No more stuck emotions.  You are ready and able to feel and let go.’

‘I send you a hug through my mind from my heart.’

‘I am so proud of you.’

What is being shown and/or said to you is supporting you to be the person you want to be and are growing into.’  Follow through.  Adjust.  Be.  Breathe.  Flow.

‘Bring your truest of self into the situation through as much self-love as possible.’

‘You bringing your truth with you always will create your best path forward.’

‘As we speak and share our truth and vulnerabilty, we open the door for others to do the same.’

‘I love you.’

‘There is a new game to be played here.’

‘If I find myself asking myself when is enough enough, I am [probably] at the point where I have had enough.’

‘Be extra easy on yourself just now.’

‘’Give yourself a hug.’

‘What you feel is real for real reasons. Honor yourself.’

‘In honoring ourselves, we best honor others.’

‘I love sunsets (and sunrises).   They are magical and beautiful.   They are even better when I get to share them.’

May you be open to the You that is evolving, transforming, open, loving, and truthful.  Enjoy the sunrises and sunsets of all your experiences; as best you can in as many moments as you can.

We are all walking through together.

Step by step by step.

From sunrise to sunset.  From sunset to sunrise.   Live You courageously open to as much ease and flow as possible.

Practice.   Practice.   Practice.  

And so it is.   And so you are.  And so you can.  And so we do.

Love



May you take a moment (or more) to breathe into your heart

Open to love.  Let love immerse into your entire being.  Feel love in your organs; your cells; throughout your body and your being.  Breathe.  Welcome it.   Let it spread up and out into the air; the universe.   Let the intent be for it to reach exactly the person(s) [living thing(s)], it is meant to reach. 

May you be open to reach out and up to grab onto the loving energy that is in the air, the universe, that is present for you.

Love is everywhere.  Love is healing.  Love is. 

May you connect to the love that lifts you.  As you connect to your own love first, the process of life will respond and support you.   May we all be supported.   

Perhaps, every time you give some of your self away (or do something for another) out of love, always keep a certain amount of this love for yourself.

May we all let love; be love; come from love; live from and through love.  

Grow yourself in love.  It is needed.  You are needed.  Thank you.

Dream

I have dreamed of living exactly where I live now.   I have dreamed of living in Florida USA since I was 17.  I purchases my first place here when I was 40.  I picked the name of the area out before I ever visited it.

I had dreamed of being married.  I am married 32 years now.

I dreamed of being a mom.  I have a brilliant, lovely daughter.

I dreamed of being a secretary when I was in elementary school.  Check.

I dreamed of being a Personal Trainer.  Check.

I was called to be a Certified Life Coach.  I am.

One cannot create something quite as thrilling, perhaps, without first dreaming it or imagining it.

May you let yourself dream.   Live in your dreams.  Create your dreams.

Whatever you can dream, You can create.

I am Not so easily working in the field of Life Coaching just now.   There is something within me that has yet to allow it.

I am very much a Life Coach.  I have yet to step into the full role of same as I 'see' and 'feel' it within me.   I believe it will happen exactly as it is supposed to exactly when it is supposed to.

Dream.  Believe.  Open to everything inside of you living through and out of you.

May you live in the You that you are as you create the You that you are meant to become.  

Today is today - exactly as it is - for a reason.  Relax into it.  Let it be so.  Embrace it.

Be true to you.  Be true to what you are feeling.  Be true to each situation.  Be true.

Oh the things that are yet to happen and be so for You.  !!

Life is glorious in all of (y)our days.  

May you believe this even during your most challenging of times.  

Perhaps, your dream(s) are coming through what you are living through today.

I wish you your dreams.   I so wish you Your Dreams.

Home

The light is on and we are 'Home'.

It feels to me that many of us are knowing how we feel.  Are more connected to what is going on with ourselves than, maybe, ever before.   The depth of our own humanness is here for us to explore, reach and be.

We feel/see more than ever.   It is easier to bear witness and yet challenging to do the same.

Perhaps, previously, we have put our minds on other things.  We’ve kept busy.  We persuaded our thoughts to pay attention and to focus on other things.  Anything to not feel...  Some of us; not all of us.   

We are now, more and more, honoring our feelings, thoughts and ways.

Some of us are being challenged to honor thyself.

May you accept where you are, what you know and what you want as you live in and through the depth of you.

Your light it on.

May you let light shine where it needs to.

May you shine.

"Let it shine.  Let it shine.  Let it shine."

Breathe and be.

Breathe and shine.

Breathe and live.

Breathe and open up.

Breathe and hug yourself.

Breathe and do that thing.

Breathe and know.

Breathe.

May you Breathe the light into the life of You.

Unknown

I come here unbeknownst to me what I will type; what will be shared.  I'm not sure there is anything within me just now that wishes to come forth.

I offer myself to come out and 'play' and go for whatever there is to go for...

Here.   I.  Sit.

I am waiting for the people that help me clean my home and I have avocado and hummus on a plate with pretzels.  Tiffany, my little dog, stands guard at the door watching and waiting for visitors to arrive.

It is a grayish, wet kind of day.  The sky is a dullish white with grayish navy blue clouds.  It is 70 deg F.  There is a calm in the air; a cleansing.  I connect with it and welcome it.

It seems to me like there are still plenty of lessons within and around me and I hear myself asking to be kind and as gentle as possible to me.  I'm tired of lessons.  I think of the days when there was joy in every breath without having to bequeath joy upon myself.  It just was so.

I seem to have gotten deeply involved in these lessons that feel like bombardments.  While I sit grateful in them; while I believe this is right where I'm supposed to be; while I'm loving the strength that comes up from within the depth of myself, I am so ready for the joyful ways of life; of learning.

Is it all just a mindset...  Hmmm.  Perhaps, only each of us can answer this for ourselves.

In the totality of one's life, life is experienced individually and from what we know, who we are and what we have experienced.

May you let joy be so in whatever amount you feel you are ready for.  

It is said that if we change one thing - perhaps, even putting on a different pant leg first than we usually do - we change the momentum of what is.

May you create your own response that feels more joyful than harassed.  It is in you to do so.

May you breathe and know.

May you breathe and be.

May you breathe and do.

I wish you joy-filled thoughts, situations, moments and eons.

Meet

May you meet yourself where you are.  

Life.  It is full.  There is a saying “We plan. God laughs“.

There are times when we do plan and life works out as we plan it to.   There are times when it may go a little astray of our plans.  And there are times when life happens in a way that is foreign and challenging; exciting and unknown.

May you meet your life right where it is at.   When we resist what is, we may feel turmoil and confusion.  When we flow with what is, in honor of ourselves and what is, we can, perhaps, navigate more clearly and participate in the most helpful and enlightening way(s) possible.

If your life is as you planned just now and your content or excited or happy, may you know gratitude for same.  May you sit deeply in all that good stuff and enjoy every breath.  I am so happy that this is your time.

If your life feels challenging and/or you feel lost or uncomfortable, breathe.   Perhaps, step out of yourself and look in. What do you see...  Is there one thing you can do right now to open up to what is... Support yourself to walk through by way of trusting in the process of life and, also, trusting in yourself that you can and you will triumph.

We all go through the ups and downs of life.

Just what if - even though it can feel otherwise - it is all good for us.   We are loving and learning.

This is the human way.

May you be in each moment in your best way that is currently available to you.

Change is the one thing we can be certain of.

Live.  Live you.   Live the you that you are just now.

Open heart. Open mind. Open road(s).

Sending love to the spirit of You.  May It and You fly beautifully.

Here I Go... Me Me Me

I just heard myself asking myself if I am the only one that can no longer push one's self into doing things I don't want to do...

I see many people walking around tired, sick, struggling and forcing their bodies and spirits through things that their bodies and spirits are not enjoying.  The struggle is real.

I find myself stagnate in what I would call living.  I find myself stretching and moving and within a few minutes, my heart and my soul smiles.

I am not smiling often these days compared to my days of smiling often.  Ha.

I hear people tell me about being dizzy; lightheaded.   This can be about scattered thinking.  I, too, find myself dizzy and lightheaded at times.

How [so] easy it is to have scattered thinking just now.  We are in an upheaval of life as we once lived in.  We are in a shift into life as it is going to be.  Some of us are experiencing scattered thinking in between what was and what will be.  Who we were and who we are going to be.  What we did and what we are going to do.

Life is different.  The world is a much smaller place.  What is happening over there is known and felt over here and vice versa.

The younger ones do not know a life outside of this.  They do not know a life where they can be private, free (unattached) and alone as us older ones were growing up.  This can, perhaps, feel very lonely and challenging to not participate as this 'always on' seems to be the way of life just now for most.

There are apps for everything.  How brilliant and how 'on'.

How wonderful to have any and all information at our fingertips.  How scattered and overwhelming all this information can be.

I can easily say one minute I am looking up something or some type of information and the next I'm hostile with myself for not turning off.  I like that I am not pushing myself to do everything that comes my way and I am mad at myself for not doing more.  I pray for help and answers to put me easily where I am supposed to be and to give me peace always, if possible, with where I am.

I sit in the imbalance of balancing.

I open to trusting that where I am; who I am; what I am doing and who I am doing it with is exactly what is meant for me now.  I take a deep breath into my belly and as I exhale, I invite my body to relax.

There is energy here.  There is stagnant energy here and there is rampant energy here.  There is energy that feels lovely.  There is energy that feels strange.

We are all processing through a world that has never been before.  As we bring our true self either by being, breathing, carrying, pushing, questioning, allowing through all or any of these things, we are living.  We are doing the best we can with who we are and what we know.

It needs, perhaps, to be a time of Me Me Me.  As we fall into the depth of ourselves and live the truth within us out loud, we are building/securing/creating the world that is meant to be.

May it be a beautiful world.  May the beauty and love; distraught, magical and alive live through you and out into the world.  May our beauty and love meet up, pick up, allow, grow and become a world that is full of beauty and love that has never been witnessed or experienced before.

YOU are here for this reason.  To be the true You and Be U through the uniqueness that is you(rs).

You.  You.  You.  May you invite your wholeness to thrive.
