Calm, Clarity and Focus Are On The Other Side

/in , /by

 

What do you do when you’re feeling stressed out?  I ask that because your response to that question determines how long your stress will hang around.

Everyone has stress. It is a normal part of life. However, when you are constantly reacting to stressful situations without making adjustments to counter the effects, you will feel stress which can threaten your health and well-being.

If you would like to learn a powerful strategy on how to deal with your stress, then please join me for this FREE webinar.

Calm, Clarity and Focus are on the other side waiting for you.

One Day…

/in , , , , , , /by

If I gave you a dime for every time I’ve heard the words “one day,” you’d be a wealthy person.

That’s because the majority of people I talk to think one day they’ll be clutter-free and better organized.

Because, in their mind, one day they’ll actually pursue de-cluttering their life.

If you ever think that way, I’ve got news for you…

One day—that wonderful time when all the stars align—will never come.

If you want to live a clutter-free life and have the peace of mind you crave, your power is always at this moment.

So, why not start today and get serious about achieving a better quality of life and schedule a call with me. You’ll discover how to live a life of freedom where you’re in control – not the clutter.

Remember something – once you take action, you set the wheels in motion for change.  The momentum builds from there.  Soon after your life will be totally different. And I’m talking, living life on your terms, woohoo, different!

I LOVE SUNDAY MORNINGS

 

I hope your week-end is going great!

Sunday mornings tend to be my favorite time.  I enjoy the peace and quiet and the serenity the day offers almost effortlessly.

I admire people who really know how to live their life like that every day.

I say that because I know they have something special going on for them. They figured out a way to not let the noise and chaos of life get in their way of living their best life.

Some days are not easy and I know life isn’t perfect, but I also recognize that it’s up to us to make it better.  No one else can do that for us.

I’ve been on a little bit of a journey for quite some time now…trying to gather the best of the best information to help myself and ultimately help you.

I will be sharing some really cool stuff in my upcoming webinar.  If you haven’t registered yet, and you’re thinking about how to make your days better…come on over and join us.

A Reminder We Can All Use

A REMINDER WE CAN ALL USE

A few signs along the way after teaching my Mindfulness Course in Florida.  We are all so unique and special and although our stories may be different we are all the same – and we all need kindness, love and support.  Here’s to staying mindful!

A Source Of Comfort We Can All Use

/in , , , , /by

I would like to introduce you to “Ms. B.”

Ms. B is a God loving woman with a very healthy dose of gratitude.

I found myself curious about her grateful disposition, so I asked her what her secret was.

She chuckled softly.

Then she told me about a plaque that is hanging in her home. She recited the words to me.

I saw beyond every challenge to forever display the love of God in each facet of my life.

I remember pausing and not saying anything for a moment.  I had to let the words sink in.

There’s something really special, (it’s hard to explain, but you feel it) when you encounter a person of such deep faith.

If I’m really going to be honest here, Ms. B. struck a chord with me.

Have you ever felt that way about someone?

I believe that people enter our lives for a reason.  Initially, we may not understand why, but eventually in the course of time, it becomes clear.

For me, Ms. B.’s message was an awakening to not lose sight of what’s really important in my life.  To not give up hope when “things” look messy and out of sorts.

What about you?  Is there something that feels out of place in your life? 

Holding on to our faith, staying mindful of our gifts, are just some of the ways we can navigate through uncertain times.

Another way is to be ORGANIZED.

A Source Of Comfort We Can All Use

There’s a sense of peace and calmness that is derived from having things in order.  Being organized, assures us that we can rely on something when everything else may feel out of our reach.

I think we all need a source of comfort to help us along our way.

If you’re interested, I’m going to be running my FREE Webinar on getting organized again.  You can get all the details here.

I hope you’ll join me.

WEDNESDAY WELLNESS – TIPS FOR CLEAN LIVING

I would like to share a quote from my book Organically Yours.

It brings me peace.  I hope it does the same for you.

“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past,
not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles,
but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.”
~ Siddhartha Gautama Buddha

Loving What Is

/in , , , , , /by

Loving What Is

Below is an excerpt from Byron Katie’s Book –Loving What Is
“I am a lover of what is, not because I’m a spiritual person, but because it hurts me when I argue with reality.  We can know that reality is good just as it is, because when we argue with it, we experience tension and frustration.  We don’t feel natural or balanced.  When we stop opposing reality, action becomes simple, fluid, kind, and fearless.”
My Dear Friends…
Doesn’t this free you up? Doesn’t it give you permission to say, ‘Ah, yes, it is all OK – I am not going to argue with what is, I can accept it and then take the steps that are necessary with ease?
Living an untruth is always stressful. So many times haven’t we denied or tried to control our reality instead of just accepting it.  And how has that worked out?  Usually it becomes at some point very painful.   
The process of  Life Recovery is just like that…loving it all…loving every broken piece of it and then some.
Maybe it’s your career, relationship, environment, finances or health that’s causing you to feel anxiety, frustration and confusion.  But if, just if, we take this approach of Loving What Is, doesn’t it feel gentler and more peaceful? Doesn’t clarity begin to focus in? Then inspiration … possibly?
If you are struggling and would like to learn how to overcome your challenges and  recover, I would love to share with you all the valuable tools that have helped me.
In Healing,

A Lesson In Life

A Lesson In Life

Whenever my mom would came across reading material she found meaningful enough to share, she would clip it out and save it until the time was appropriate.

It’s one of the many things I loved about her.

I speak in past tense because my mom suffers from an awful disease that we call “Alzheimer’s.” 

It has robbed her memory, changed her quality of life and invaded her privacy.  For this, I am grief stricken.  It is a disease that affects all – all that choose to love and support her.

It has been over a year now that I have carried around this beautiful message – A Lesson In Life .  I found it while cleaning out my parent’s vacation home.  I now feel a desire to share it with you.

My hope is that you gain inner strength and peace from reading it.

My best always,

Patricia

 

A Lesson In Life

A Lesson In Life

Everything happens for a reason.  Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck.

Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul.  Without these small tests, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere.

If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them.  For they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.

Make every day count.  Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen.  Hold your head up because you have every right to.  Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don’t believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either.

You can make of your life anything you wish.  Create your own life and then go out and live it!

My Birthday Bucket List…

/in /by

So here I am another year older – and wiser I would like to think…

On my 50th birthday last year, there was the party, the hype, and of course the dread of the realization that I have approached the age most women want to forget about.  I spent a lot of my time trying to overcome the anxiety of this age that I didn’t have time to embrace what my life has been about –  and what I now would like it to become.

I have decided that the most important aspect of life, at least for me, is to know how to make myself happy.  Yes, having your health without a doubt is  invaluable, but happiness creates a healthy lifestyle and offers so many more riches that life has to offer.  Peace of mind cannot come without it.

With my new found wisdom, I have decided moving forward with my life, I am going to take the advice of one of my favorite poet’s – William Purkey and do exactly this:

“Dance like no one is watching,

Love like you’ll never be hurt,

Sing like no one is listening,

Live like it’s heaven on earth.”

Happy Birthday to Me!

A Beautiful Prayer …When It All Gets Too Much…

/in /by

For All My Busy People…

Dear God,

When the day is too busy and the voices too loud, when there is too much on my mind and too little in my heart, when I plan too much for tomorrow and explain too much about yesterday, when I have hidden my true feelings inside and then complained of being lonely and misunderstood, be my good shepherd and my friend.

Gather up my jangled nerves, my tensed muscles, my anxious and fluttering heart.  Send life pulsing through me like an irresistible flood.

But show me how to be quiet, too.  Teach me to be still.  In deep stillness let me rest.  Let silence surround me like a friend, calming me and instructing me with deeper wisdom from within.

When my day is too busy and the voices are all too loud, be my good shepherd and my friend.

Amen
