This week’s inspiration is optimism. Optimism is described as having faith in the future and a successful outcome of any project you are working on. Being optimistic means you know you’re safe down here and you can create whatever you want to create. Being optimistic means you look for the best to happen to you, versus the worst to happen to you, or figuring that something’s going to pull the rug out from under you. To be optimistic, you need…..

This week’s inspiration is from our childhood. It is called playtime. Playtime is described as a way to play and to be diverted from your daily routine. But it’s described as something that children do, but not adults. We all need playtime. We all need to be diverted from our regular duties, such as work, paying bills, and cleaning the house, whatever you need to do. You need to be diverted and play. Play for the simple joy of play…..
When working on returning to self-love, it’s vital to live in the moment. To live in the moment means you’re paying attention to what’s happening right in front of you. You’re not like yakking on the phone while you’re waiting in line. You’re not checking your text, but you’re literally living in the moment. I used to laugh at people who would be yakking on their phones as they took their morning walks. I wondered how many people missed seeing…..
This week’s inspiration is true strength. True strength means you stay connected to yourself no matter what’s happening around you. True strength means you stand clear and firm with your principles and values, no matter who wants you to change them or to come to their side of the street. True strength means that you love yourself deeply and you’re willing to stand with yourself even if others go against you. True strength means that you love yourself enough to…..
This week’s inspiration is jubilance. Jubilance means showing great feelings of joy and happiness. Now, when was the last time you jumped up for joy because you were so delighted with your life? That’s why this week’s inspiration is jubilance – to literally allow yourself to jump for joy even for the tiniest things that happen in your life. It will lift your resonance to a higher level. Jubilance means that you’re accepting these gifts from the universe and from…..
This week’s inspiration is a Kierkegaard quote. Faith sees best in the dark. This spoke directly to me. Faith is rarely used when you’re experiencing a good life, or a successful time, or falling in love. Faith is not needed during those times. In fact, faith tends to be put on a shelf to be pulled down only when things seem to be going wrong. “Faith sees best in the dark”. It cannot see the best in the light but…..
This week’s inspiration is a clean slate. Now, that phrase became a part of our vernacular when we used to use chalk and slates to teach children in schools. You would wipe the board clean so that the next person could put the homework up on the board. We all need clean slates throughout our lives. We all make mistakes. We all do horrible things that we feel bad about, and we don’t need to be held back by what…..
When working on returning to self-love, it’s important to become light-hearted. Now, light-hearted is described as cheerful, hopeful, and enjoying your life, which is the whole point of self-love to enjoy your life. So become light-hearted and know that you being light-hearted may impact those around you or who are a little less than light-hearted. Light-heartedness means you have faith in the loving universe and that the universe is on your side and things will go your way eventually. So…..
When working on returning to self-love, you are going to embrace freedom. Now what do I mean by freedom? I mean freedom from your negative beliefs. Beliefs that keep you small and in a tiny box not allowing you to experience the grandness of this life. Freedom from the negative thoughts you have running in your head every day telling you that you’re not good enough – that you’re less than – that you’re miserable. Freedom from your inner wounds…..
