Today, remember the power of self love ...

No matter what you’re feeling, 

the only way to get a difficult feeling to go away is 

simply to love yourself for it. 

If you think you’re stupid, 

then love yourself for feeling that way. 

It’s a paradox, but it works. 

To heal, you must be the first one 

to shine the light of compassion...

Christiane Northrup

May this dress remind you that you and you alone are responsible for you!!

Remember, you and you alone are responsible

 for maintaining your energy. 

Give up blaming, complaining and excuse making, 

and keep taking action in the direction of your goals 

- however mundane or lofty they may be. 

Jack Canfield

you alone need to take care of yourself, your health, your heart, your life,

so please be good to yourself! 

love, mom

“You are wonderful. Valuable. 

Worthwhile. Lovable.

Not because others think so. 

Self-worth comes from only one place: 

self.”

Go out beyond and I'll meet you there ...

Out Beyond Ideas

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,

there is a field. I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass,

the world is too full to talk about.

Ideas, language, even the phrase each other

doesn't make any sense

Rumi

This poem has been banging around my head today, and even more so when I saw these blossoms ... I saw a meandering path beyond. 

And i've always been captivated by the idea of going beyond the ideas of wrong and right, beyond judgement and criticism. 

So today let us quiet those inner voices assessing all of our 'doings', and let us lay down be in the deep, lush green grass of just being! 

This is my religion! 

love, mom

Day 4: inhale self love

 Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement. Golda Meir

This will be a reoccurring theme as it is the core to a fulfilled and mindful life, self love, self trust!!! 

So much is written about when we enter the world, as babies, we knew what we needed and had an an open and deep love for life.  Then the outside world corrupted that knowing, parents (hi), communities, media, religions, schools, the list can go on and on!!! 

All these outer influences fed us fear and should's and self doubt.  They did it with the best intentions, they believed that these fears would keep you safe, help society as a whole, that the restrictions would  better you.  

But the truth is that you know how to take care of yourself, you know what is right for you and there comes a time when we all need to reclaim our inner trust and believe in what our heart is telling us. 

You, my dear, have a strong will and a wise soul so practice quieting yourself and listening. 

Love, mom
