Be U: Simplicity

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.

Simplicity

Imagine this…

YOU doing what feels happiest, most joyful, fun and balanced to You.

Just what if when we are feeling ‘ugh’ or ‘yikes’ or ‘blah’ we look at it as we are not doing what aligns with our soul.

We are doing more from our minds - through our thoughts that were created with knowledge that came from outside of ourselves - than from the wisdom that is inside each of us.

Knowledge is wonderful. Learning is exciting. And to use only knowledge leaves out a lot of who we are and what we were created to do.

For one week, one day, one hour just, maybe, be aware of when you get cranky or feeling less than good - what is going on around you and what are the thoughts that you are thinking.

Are you in alignment with what you think you ‘should’ be doing or are you in alignment with what feels like You.

What is one thing you can do and/or think in a moment of ‘ugh’ that brings you into the alignment of what feels best to You.

Maybe we cannot always do things that are more joyous or fun to ourselves. We can always change the thought of what our reaction to an experience is.

Simple. Idk. I will consciously participate and try it for myself.

I do know I can change the way I feel by changing the way I experience something by changing the thought and my reaction of/to it.

‘Play’ with this a bit if it feels like something You want to do. We can always go back to just letting ourselves be miserable when we are.

In this world of great upheaval and change, we can create the world within us to experience life in a way that allows us to be more self- aware and to create better options for ourselves in how we react.

Let’s get it on.

May you honor the honor that is the right fit and feel of who You are.

Welcome simplicity through awareness, thoughts, love, wisdom and beliefs.

May you ‘simply’ “Just 9Be U”.

Know thyself. Love thyself. Be thyself. Thy whole self. Put this awesome that is You(rs) into our world.

May this be our ongoing and forward way of living.

Love. Honor. Follow your bliss in the most beautiful, helpful, uplifting and productive ways.

When you are feeling cranky or feeling less than You - may you be aware of what is going on around you and what are the thoughts that you are thinking.

My Past Story

The first thing I would always tell a new doctor was 'my dad left me when I was 10'. He just disappeared, ran away. It was pretty awful for me. I thought it was my fault as most kids sometimes do. I thought I was unlovable. Years later, 20 maybe, I realized it wasn't just that my dad left me that affected my life, but also that my mom stayed. She stayed and I'll be forever grateful. However, her staying wasn't all peaches and creme. She was so hurt, so distraught, so frightened to raise three kids on her own and find a job that it was very hard for her to be there for me and my needs. I chose to shutdown, be quiet and try not to make it any harder on her as to not ask for much, or voice much, or need much.

Years later, in 11/12th grade, I noticed my fingers being really cold and hurting all the time. I noticed them turning purple and the pain was very 'loud'. Humorously enough, I had chosen to be a secretary and typing was a big part of my everyday. I loved it even. Fingers flying across the keyboard with as little mistakes as possible was the goal. I was pretty good at it. While in typing class, I remember putting my hands on my neck to try to warm them and make them feel better. I was naive enough then to think this must be happening to everyone.

Anyway, years went by and nobody was able to tell me why this was happening or what to do to make it better. Then, approximately 4 years later, I remember (what I felt) was little me sitting across from a really big doctor at his really big desk and him telling me I was allergic to myself. Of course, this was him describing to me what auto-immune meant. I had a disease called scleroderma and it could kill me (sometimes in as little as five years) and I would most likely be on medicine and have it for the rest of my life and there was nothing to change it.

Anyway, almost 30 years later, I've had my share of pain and I'm alive. I've had ulcerations on my fingers and I have lost most of my nails on both hands from lack of circulation and producing too much collagen. My hands are somewhat not a pretty sight and to hit something with one of my fingers by accident (well, I refer to the feeling as 'going to the moon).

When I was about 30, I started looking at alternative medicine and I tried anything that came across my path to try to stop the pain. I have tried many normal and not so normal 'ideas'. I sometimes do not believe at what lengths I went to try to ease my pain and suffering!

This is what has brought me here to this point in my life.

I'm grateful to be able to learn so much about myself and life and I wouldn't take it back (well, some days I might want to).

Something was telling me to blog. I really didn't know much about blogging - I am still a novice at best. Approximately 5 weeks ago, I sat at my computer and started typing.

I am surprised at where my blogs have led me. I thought I was trying to help others and that still is a big goal of mine. However, what I am finding out is that this is a great outlet for me.

A way to feel like I'm doing something. I told a friend this morning about my blog and I said that it's draining because I put everything out there and do not hold back as I post each individual blog; its fun because it does give me an outlet and I feel a little purpose in my life; and it's scary because I don't want anyone laughing at me or telling me that I am completely 'off my rocker'!
