Unplug

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!

Keep dreaming…

Screen Shot 2013-03-07 at 1.38.51 AMNo, really.

Keep on dreaming. It’s never too late to live your dreams.

Even if it seems like the farthest thing possible from how you are living your life right now – it’s never too late to do what you really want to do.

You create your reality.  “You have invented the world you see.” – ACIM.

Your perception is your reality. You may have heard this before but it is definitely worth repeating: “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you most certainly are right.” – Henry Ford.

It is really powerful to realize that what you think, you create.

If you think you are capable, you are capable. If you think you are not worthy, you won’t be.

When you dream and envision, you open up your mind to your inner most desires – the wishes that you truly want to have fulfilled.  We sometimes limit our dreams or stop ourselves from dreaming too big for fear of being let down, being afraid it is too outrageous to actually happen.  However, that limits our potential and causes us to not only stop our dream in our minds, but literally stop our dreams from coming to life in our reality.

Studies show that after watching pro-athletes’ brain scans in an MRI, when asked to envision their game plan in their minds, the same parts of their brain lit up as if they were actually practicing on the court or the field. This is how many of our U.S. Armed forces are trained, by virtual stimulation simulating real life combat experiences – using video games.  They are learning the process, feeling it out and playing it out in their minds.  The skills acquired during this training period are instrumental in Military real life combat when they get on to the battlefield.

So, how is this related you ask?

When you dream about the specifics of what you want to accomplish, you are literally “practicing” in your mind for what will then seem more natural to you the first time you are interacting in the experience.  Cool huh?

So, if you dream it – you will be able to do it more naturally, you can combat the fear that is creating your Upper Limit Problem head on and start to examine it.   You can, in the safety of your mind play in the “what if this really happens”. The fear you feel about doing something for the first time will not be as strong because it will be as though you have done it already.

When you dream, your mind then becomes naturally fixated on what you are dreaming about which in turn will make you more inclined to do some research, figure out the steps you need to get there, take that class, be at that networking event and know the industry better. It’s these small steps that get you ready for the real deal. Your mind will get you ready for the actions you need to take to actually LIVE your dreams and you can break through your so called “upper limits”.

Dream it and dream of your travels, of your successes, your milestones, how you will feel, and dream bigger.  Imagine what you want to accomplish and keep dreaming it until your mind creates a curiosity that cannot be quenched until you actually are living it.

The only one stopping you, is you.

Dream on!

Hope that inspires you!
