My 'HAPPY PLACE'....(Stress Relief)

Ever since I can remember...when I was 'scared' in my bed late at night....when I was in trouble with my parents...receiving a lecture...(blah blah blah)...when I was in a boring school day....

fast forward to later years....in college and even beyond...WHENEVER I was in a stressful situation...THIS is the image that would pop into my mind...and when it did I could 'tune out' and KNOW that ALL IS WELL.  

'This person', 'this parent', 'this situation', 'this stressor'....is real (MASSIVE air quotes on this one ...BECAUSE WE KNOW - THIS TOO SHALL PASS)  

HOWEVER, I can be a part of this situation (and I need to be on certain levels because this is all part of my physical life path .... but I can also go to my HAPPY PLACE. 

The first time I went to my 'happy place' - I remember well....I was 7 years old.  I was receiving a parent lecture (bless them...as a parent now myself I KNOW (and hope!) that my kids also have a HAPPY PLACE because as parents we are obligated!) 

Regardless, I REMEMBER sitting in the chair in the living room and hearing the 'talking to'...however was VERY AWARE that I was in 'Strawberry Fields'.  *In my mind, this is what I called it.  It is EXACTLY what this picture looks like.  If you know me, you have often heard me speak of this as this image is a very POPULAR image in decorative artwork for home and in imagery NOW...I am so grateful.  

AT THAT TIME, I was also very aware of the fact that 'I could be there' listening to the talk from my parents....however ALSO BE in my happy place....my Strawberry Fields.  

*Now, also at that time - 7yrs old - NOT (yet) a Beatles fan but was in the making....later on I knew it was a Poppy field I was seeing clearly in my minds eye and yet I always did and still do - call this image when I see it....Strawberry Fields. 

THE POINT IS

It is SO IMPORTANT to me NOW to have a place where I can go...to completely be my Self, be on my own, be in my own thoughts and KNOW that 

NO MATTER WHAT IS GOING ON AROUND ME...

ALL IS WELL.  

If you have a happy place...excellent! GO THERE REGULARLY.  I still do absolutely have my Strawberry Fields which pops into my 'minds eye' when I need it to - to remind me that regardless of anything that is going on...all is well.  Keep going. 

I found a print of my Strawberry Fields in a shop and have it hanging over my bed...so that EACH and EVERY night - I remind myself that whatever transpired through the day (good, bad or indifferent) I ALWAYS live in my HAPPY PLACE. 

FIND PHYSICAL SPACES to be in...where you can be with like minded souls and share energy, peace, well being and courtesy....this feeds your soul...all good. 

**Lately I have spent some time working on my computer (on upcoming projects) at one of my local libraries...an AMAZING space to be with others in a communal environment.

Find your HAPPY PLACE...within yourself and with your community and SEE and FEEL how this reduces stress and anxiety - promoting peace and a GENERAL SENSE OF confidence, strength and peace.  

Sending blessings always,

The POWER of Nature

When was the last time you took a walk outside?  And while a stroll to the mailbox certainly COUNTS as a walk outside it is just as important to place a priority on putting a walk in Nature on our 'to-do' lists.
And yes, for the record any time we step outside our front door we are engaging in the outdoors and receiving an Energy healing of sorts.  Just be breathing in the outside air we are kickstarting our Life force energy be removing any blockages within our Energy centres (yes, it's true!)

HOWEVER, if we are strolling down a city street listening to cars going by or cars honking or people shouting or...any and ALL of the above!  Then we are also still within the confines of our 'busy head syndrome'....we are technically 'in the moment' except that THIS moment is filled with tension and noise.

We NEED to place on our calendars time for stepping out of busy-busy moments and into STILL moments like when we are outside in Nature walking along trails or standing by the waters edge or strolling through a meadow.  This moment is one filled with the sound of bird's chirping, breezes blowing and.....hmmmm....nothing else.

This moment is completely still....and peaceful.....and HEALING TO THE SPIRIT.

Put some *POWERFUL NATURE TIME* on your calendar today....and increase your energy physically, mentally and emotionally!

KNOW Peace

It's true, we can't control much.
It's 'MORE true' that we do not 'control' anything......life is much easier, better and ultimately more fruitful....when we just go with the flow.

HOWEVER.....(were you waiting for this?  Those that know me well and read often certainly were waiting for the 'but/however'....)

WHAT WE CAN 'CONTROL' is our level of peace within and without.

Firstly, when we focus on peace within....then every thing, every person, every piece of expected/unexpected news, every new development in 'the plan'....is simply.....simple.

'It is what it is' - and when you consistently and vigilantly bring your awareness back to a state of peace....everything is simple, logical and you think and act with clarity.  Some things need to be 'acted on' while other things simply need to be 'waited on'.  More pieces of the puzzle need to fall in place before actions or thoughts can be clear.  In the meantime,  FOCUS ON PEACE WITHIN and that will enable those 'pieces of the puzzle' to come to you much easier and much more quickly.  Focus on Peace.

*When you are not focused on a state of peace, every thing and everybody threatens to foil your every plan, you feel you have to think and rethink every thought, every action of your own....of everyone else's...you must plan every waking minute of every day....you must analyze past actions and try to tweak them to ensure better results in future...think think think....this is a problem.   

Instead....focus on peace.....simplicity....what will be will be.

Secondly, create an atmosphere of peace around you.  In your words and your actions to others however ALSO and in some cases more importantly, in your words and actions to your Self, with your inner voice. What are the types of comments you use with your Self?  Are you supportive?  Are you kind?
From a 'physical' perspective, you can create an environment of peace by surrounding your Self with people that are kind and power-full.  Light some candles, use your favourite colours to decorate, DO AWAY WITH CLUTTER, spend time outside, 'bring the outside in' with indoor gardening (start your seeds sprouting for your summer garden)  purchase cut flowers weekly and feel their energy essence lend healing to your work space, your home space....you and those around you.  Spend time with people who are of 'like minds' and of similar energy....simply put, you 'have a connection' with these people!  They help you to feel peaceful and centred - don't question it, just trust it!

What's the point?  When we create an atmosphere of peace around us and a consistent state of peace within us....we are WIDE OPEN to RECEIVING guidance and direction and ASSISTANCE from our Angels, Higher Self and from the Universe, from Source.

That's a great point.  

Sending peace out to you, your family, your friends, your relationships, your work space and your home....from my heart to yours.....KNOW peace.
