I just arrived back from Miami this weekend

and it was one amazing time!

I got the chance to unwind, soak in the ocean for what seemed like hours upon hours and have deep conversations with my best friend (my soon-to-be husband). We talked about our future, our life, some crazy inventions, and our dreams. It was really magical.

We relaxed, we went out, we enjoyed ourselves, we did wedding planning at our GORGEOUS destination wedding venue. We met with the vendors we booked, the vendors we are interviewing and with our wedding planner. All the meetings went superbly.  It was just so perfect!

Then, the fun and crazy bachelorette party for my girl who is practically my sister came out with her sisters, and best friends to dance the nights away.  It was such a fun week and weekend!

I feel so blessed and grateful to have been able to have this amazing experience.  I think this year is really the first time in my life when I am the happiest I think I have ever been. I have been relying SO much more on the Universe, on God, on my “Light Team” (those who have passed in my family) and on my intuition for guidance, for direction and to TRUST that I will be provided for.  It wasn’t an easy path, and day-by-day I need to remind myself not to stress and to trust that everything will work out for the best.

I think that I finally learned the concept that “Those who are certain of the outcome can afford to wait, and wait with out anxiety.” – ACIM

By trusting and KNOWING everything will be alright, that you will have that happily ever after one day, that you can love and people can love you right back, and that everything you need will be provided….some how everything just seems to fall into place.  The Universe will conspire to create the world that you are trusting in, whether that be stress and anxiety – or support and peace.

“Whether you think you can, or think you can’t – you will always be right.” – Henry Ford. This quote can be applied to the vision for your life. If you think you will be happy and safe you will. If you think you are the victim and you will live in uncertainty, so too will be true.

When there was nothing but clear blue ocean and me and my fiancé, It was so nice to connect and have no distractions.  When I had time alone on our balcony to just people watch, stare at the ocean and day dream, I could finally find that inner peace that we so long for everyday.

Life is not a continuous vacation where we all can have time to just think and to just BE, but we can make it feel that way and incorporate this peace into our daily lives.

By unplugging, taking away all of your distractions, going on a walk or meditating for as long as you have time for – you will find that inner peace too and will be able to carry it with you on your day.

When you unplug you can tune in to your internal truth and universal guidance. You will be brought back to the knowing that you will be provided for, that all the pieces will fall into place and that our third world catastrophes are really just distractions from the main things we are here to experience – connection, love and happiness.

We are wired for freedom, connection and joy so take the chance, unplug and connect.

As always,
Hope that inspires you!
