This week’s inspiration is to connect to your inner happiness. Now many of us look for our happiness outside of ourselves through our things that we own, people we know – and things we achieve. That’s not in our happiness. Inner happiness lies within us all. We just covered it up with different feelings, negative beliefs, and criticisms, but you can always tap into your inner happiness. You can do it through pleasure, finding things that give you great feelings…..
This week’s inspiration is the phrase “let bygones be bygones”. Now this phrase originated in the 15th century when a Scottish churchman, Ness, was hoping that God would let his problems from his youth be bygone. Let bygones be bygones means letting yourself off the hook and letting other people off the hook for the mistakes they made or the harm they may have caused you. We can all get stuck in the past, holding our resentments or anger from…..
This week’s inspiration is the magical child. I wrote about this in my book The Heart of the Matter. The magical child is the one who teaches you about the power of joy. Now your Higher Self has taught you about the power of love and hopefully connected you to their love. The magical child teaches us how to use joy to create wonderful experiences in our lives. Joy needs to be embraced by us all, and we need to…..
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 self-awareness. Self-awareness is knowing that your beliefs, your thoughts, and your actions are in alignment with your values and standards. Now you cannot get to self-love without self-awareness. You must know what you think, what you feel, and what your actions come out of what you think and feel. You need to know yourself intimately, and self-awareness is the key to knowing yourself. So become aware of what you think, become aware of what you say…..
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…..
This week’s inspiration is listening to the whispers. Now our higher selves, or the divine, or whatever word you prefer to use, never yell at us, never shout at us, but gently whisper the direction we should go. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to people saying I wish I knew the answer. I wish I knew which way to go. I wish I knew what to do. Then you ask them, ‘Do you ever get quiet…..
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 month’s inspiration is a phrase we’ve all heard. A phrase we all have used. The phrase is “this too shall pass”. We’re all going to experience dark times -tough times -rough times, and we’re going to feel like they’re never going to end. And that nothing good is ever going to flow back into our lives, and it can paralyze us. But if you’ll say this phrase to yourself -this too shall pass – it will remind you that…..
