Be U: December 2023

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.

Head Game

We all have a brain encased in our heads.

It is very rarely a positive idea to get in another's head. May you stay in your own. Ha.

It is a most useful idea to stay in our own mind, thoughts, wisdom, knowledge and experiences; open minded, open hearted.

It can get really confusing and chaotic in our own heads. When we imagine scary things, care unhealthily, or think what others may be thinking or feeling, it can be a game changer away from who we really are and what we really want.

As we stay present and true to what is going on within ourselves, we are honoring who our Creator created us to be. When we act or think otherwise, we dishonor ourselves and each other.

As I honor my truth through openness and love, I honor you as to invite you to honor and live in and through your own mind, knowledge and truth.

Who I am is unique unto me. Who you are is unique unto you.

Oh the freedom to be true to ourselves and each other; through love. Winners. WINNERS. We all win. It just may be the the ultimate meaning and way of Life.

Ths is where miracles happen. Great roads open up. Beautiful paths show themselves. Creativity abounds. Peace and joy, flow and vibrating-high presides.

The wonderful way of You. May you live it.

You know what is best, most true for You. Whether you play it like a game, work it seriously or anywhere in between, you and the truth of You is your most magnanimous way to be.

Live your life as who you are and let others live theirs as who they are. Each our own way. The simplicity and magic of this is love, devotion, unity and oneness; as we all want to matter, be acknowledged, seen and make a difference.

Booyah.

Be Aware

"You know you got it if it makes you feel good." Janis Joplin

When I do things that make me happy, these 'things' are easy.

When I do things that I find myself bored or frustrated or not of me, I find myself feeling 'other'.

It is always a good idea to incorporate things that make you happy among things that feel 'other'.

You have the choice. You know how you feel. You know what makes you feel most you.

May you let the feeling of you honoring you participate; as often and as much as possible.

May you be aware, consciously and mindfully, of the choices you touch into.

Be aware when who you truly are is requesting some "Me Time".

As we give ourselves Me Time, we are happier and more equipped to give of ourselves from a positive energy and light.

Positive You On.

‘Come on, come on, come on, come on’

Will

I picked a playing card just for fun and looked up the spiritual meaning. It was the '9 of Diamonds'.

“Your game in life is to graduate to new levels of being, let go of limiting beliefs about human potential, and do the work to serve the collective evolution of human consciousness.” Unknown

I am not sure if I am strong enough. I do know it is what I am here to do.

At times it feels like confusion and chaos can be around us. Within us. As what was falls away, may our lives become more complete through who and what we really are. Let love.

Let the will of your dreams, desire and wisdom be so.

May your innate knowing lead you into and through your wholeness where happiness resides from within.

Promise

Day by day, night by night, week by week, month by month. The moon and sun visit us daily. The Moon and Sun rises. The Moon and Sun sets. These are promises that life keeps going. Cycles happen. Storms come and go. Clouds happen. Blue skies happen.

Just like in our lives. There are promises. We only need look.

A person's touch. A person's smile. A baby laughing. A pet wanting to be loved and giving love. A word. A gesture. A feeling. A knowing. A rainbow. A shooting star.

Promises. They are everywhere.

May you just look. Look for the promises that are present in your life.

Be a promise. Opening your heart is a promise. Opening your mind is a promise.

Promise yourself to always be there for You.

Breathe and connect to the promises in your life. They are there; always.

I promise myself to know/do/be what is possible when there is something to know/do/be; and to be true to Me.

May you promise yourself to know/do/be what is possible when there is something to know/do/be and to live in your open truth letting love; your love.

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'!
