The Intent in Creating this Website
The Intent in creating this website was to trust my own intuition, and it felt like a very big risk when I first began this website. I wanted to share information that I knew in my heart would help women, who like me had no idea they could change the circumstances of their own lives and create a very different reality. It was during one of those days, where I was questioning my decisions and actions that I remember reading an article from the Dalai Lama where he was speaking about how we can each bring Peace to our planet. He spoke about the importance of how we can all do this: "IN ORDER TO BRING PEACE TO THE PLANET, EVERYONE NEEDS TO DO THEIR OWN INNER WORK." On that particular day I was doubting whether doing my own inner work had been worth it for me. In the previous two years, there had been a lot of changes in my life. From living in a financially controlling relationship, going back to school, and beginning a new career, and now being a signal parent, who was totally responsible for the financial well being of myself and my daughters, I was beginning to question if I had done the right thing. My life rather than being easier, felt as if every day was a challenge. Was it worth it, seemed to be where my thoughts took me. I found great comfort in the words I was reading. They were reassuring as he spoke about the women of today, and about compassion. The Dalia Lama, spoke about where he learned compassion. It was at his mother's breast, and he spoke about how we need to take care of our girls for they grow up to become mothers.  | | Dalai Lama: Fearless & Free | | | Yes, it was worth it, because while I doubted my decisions during one of many challenging days, his words reminded me of my own reasons for making my decisions and choosing to do my own inner work. As a woman and a mother I had learned to live in fear, and I was pointing my finger out and blaming others. It was only as I began to take responsibility for my life, and begin to face my own fears, that created so many of the changes in my life. I had no idea what facing my own fears would look like. I just knew that as a mother, seeing the same fear I used to have as a child, in the eyes of my children woke me up.I realized then that it was up to me, to get myself out of the life I was living, because my own actions were speaking louder than words. As a mother I knew then that leading by example, was the only way. My intent was to undo the damage and show my daughters what it looked like to love them selves and I was their best bet. My job at that time was to find my own way to
self love.
My personal journey
involved many risks. The loss of financial security, the uncertainty of what lay ahead. And yet reestablishing faith and trust in my own self, was the answer. It took every last bit of trust and wanting peace more than crazy, for me. With the help and support of conscious people I was show how to use my own experiences and this was the key for me. There are many different types of Fear, and it doesn't even matter where this fear originates. The most important thing to remember is that all fear creates a separation. The goal is to transform this fear into love. My intent in sharing my own experiences is because if I can do it, you can too. I have lived through the chaos, abuse, and uncertainty, and while living in this atmosphere, I chose self love, and I chose to create a connection. It has been this connection to my own maternal nurturing and my core values, that continues to serve me. I am grateful for this knowledge, along with my own determination, and perseverance. I am showing my children what it looks like to love unconditionally, and no it is not always a straight line. There are many times when we fall, and the difference today, is it doesn't take me as long as it used to, to pick myself up. So what can you do, if you suspect that you are living you life in fear? Remember that To be loved, is our most basic need, and without this attachment, we have fear, and separation.
Face your fears,
be curious, and question your own
thoughts and beliefs .
and be willing to LOVE YOURSELF. As a mother, regardless of what is going on in your own family, set an intention for self love. Show your own children unconditional love. Trust that you may not always know the answers, yet the more you love yourself, and the less time you spend worrying about how things may turn out, you will discover the truth, and your experiences will lead you towards what's best for you. Your own sense of self worth. Have faith in your own self, because as you begin the process of self love, you have begun the process of creating peace for the planet. It always begins our own homes, and with our own powerful love and compassion.
Set your intent for Peace and Self Love
Just believe, you can do it.
