As I continue on my spiritual journey, it has become increasingly important for me to stop and recognize the growth and the healing in
my life. I've come to understand that pausing to celebrate and integrate the many lessons that come my way, is crucial to my well being. It also ensures that I am cultivating joy, peace and gratitude NOW, not when I reach some imagined destination.
One of the simple practices I've done for years that helps me mark the milestones and the passing of time, is taking a few minutes on the first day of every month to write down a list of all of the growth, blessings, and lessons of the previous month.
I simply write a stream of consciousness bullet list of anything that comes to mind about the month that just ended.
For instance, I might write down the titles of the books I read, the name of a person I had a meaningful/challenging conversation with, an inspiring animal encounter I had, a creative project I finished, and so on. This is not a time to judge or analyze anything. I am just acknowledging all the growth of the previous month.
Every time I do this, I am filled with gratitude and awe at how much transpires in 30 days, and I feel open to receive the new blessings and lessons of the month that is just beginning.
In this same spirit, I am testing out the idea of sending you,
in the beginning of the month (I'm a bit late this month), a list of the blogs I sent to you the previous month, along with pictures of some event highlights.
It's my hope that if you missed one of my blogs the month before, this will give you a chance to see it. And if you already read them all, this will provide you an opportunity to review a topic you may want to revisit.
Also, this will offer you a moment to slow down and enjoy the ride. After all, we're halfway through the year already.
When the last day of 2018 comes it would be lovely if you could look back and recognize how present, and in your joy, you were this year.
Blessings,
Lisa
5/31/18: Getting Unstuck By Taking Small Actions (audio version included)
When you imagine doing work that you absolutely love, what does it look like? Even if you don’t actually know the
precise job (although you might), what does it involve? Are you teaching? Counseling? Connecting people with nature? With their inner wisdom? Are you making spaces beautiful so that others can enjoy it? Are you writing? Or running an inspiring store? Read more.
6/16/18 Blog: Come out of Hiding and Shine Your Light (audio version included)
You are meant to light up the world. You have a unique Soul's medicine that nobody else has. This
doesn't mean that your medicine is better than other people's medicine, but it does mean that it's different. You are the only one that can share this particular "flavor" of light. Without it the world can not be fully healed. This is how important your medicine is, and that is why you must come out of hiding. Read more.
5/7/18 Blog: Enjoy Your Summer & keep Evolving Your Career (audio version included)
Summer is in the air. For those of you, who like my clients, are committed to evolving your career, in a way that feels joyful and fulfilling, the summer can be both beautiful and yes, lets face it, challenging.
The challenge comes because the routine is different. For those of you who are mothers summer
often means kids are home, or involved in various summer activities that you have to chauffeur (or oversee the chauffeuring of). Even without kids, summer can involve extra family gatherings, or home repairs, or travel, that again, gets you out of your routine.Read more.
