Tips to Inspire

Take a Vacation!

2010-10-27T11:10:00.001-07:00

Oh wouldn't it be nice to get away from it all and get a much needed break from parenting, work, bills, annoying people, house cleaning, to do lists, dinner prep.

I know exactly what you're thinking,"There's no way I can take a vacation right now."

You're wrong. You can most certainly take a vacation right this moment. After all life is only about the moment.

Here are five vacations you can take this moment.

1. Look at something beautiful. Really look at it and appreciate it.

2. Close your eyes and breathe right down to your belly. Repeat until you feel totally relaxed.

3. Turn on the radio, find a great song and dance.

4. Smile warmly at a stranger.

5. Create a positive affirmation about yourself. Example: I am an amazingly talented and gorgeous woman.

If you take mini vacations throughout the day, you will create a day to day life that feels more like a vacation than a work/stress fest.

Virginia

Look Up

2009-10-23T11:02:00.000-07:00

When I was in fourth grade my very favorite teacher who I adored made note of the fact that I walked with my head down. She loved me so much that listened to her sage advice. "Virginia practice looking up at the sky every day." Thirty plus years later, I am still looking up at the sky. What beauty.

Life is Short

2009-10-22T08:43:00.000-07:00

You've heard it a million times, LIFE IS SHORT. Simply too short to take ourselves seriously. Spend some time today making funny faces at yourself.

Let Go!

2009-10-15T06:12:00.000-07:00

Life becomes so much easier when we stop trying to swim upstream. Gently let go and enjoy the ride.

Rest

Sometimes the best solution is a nap.

Letting Go

2009-10-09T08:47:00.000-07:00

The trees gracefully let go of their leaves and blanket the ground in a splendor of color. They know it is time. What do you need to let go of?

Dance

2009-07-23T06:30:00.000-07:00

I want to stop taking life so seriously. I believe in a God who knows how to dance. Don't you?

Ten

2009-07-06T05:29:00.000-07:00

Remember being a ten year older? Try to live just like you did when you were little. It makes life so much more fun.

A rainbow

In nature, and in life all storms end. With each ending a rainbow appears somewhere in our hearts and somewhere in the sky. Relax in the anticipation of the rainbow.

More than enough.

The answers to all of our questions can only be heard in silence. Create a sacred spot for yourself and visit it often, even for a brief minute in your mind.

You Already have It

Everything you need is within you at this very moment. You are not struggling to break out of the cocoon. Rather you are basking in your perfect beauty.

Gratitude is the gateway to abundance and the perfect way to bring peace to any situation, thought or feeling.

Being in gratitude makes them come quicker.

Surrender

2009-05-15T07:56:00.000-07:00

Twelve Step programs all begin with the act of surrendering. You don't have to be in a 12 step program to embrace this action. As you examine your life today gently surrender to whatever is or is not happening. Simply let it be. There is no need to fight it anymore. As you experience the peace of surrendering, notice the things that are perfect. The sun, the clouds, your beating heart and the expanse of the ocean.

Blessings,
Virginia

Joy

2009-05-14T06:47:00.000-07:00

You came into this world with one desire: JOY. Your joy is all that matters.

Find that joy that is you and everything in your life naturally falls into place.

Blessings,
Virginia

The Perfect Place

2009-05-13T10:00:00.000-07:00

Where are you right now in body, spirit and mind?

You may not believe this but where ever you are is the absolute perfect place. How do I know that for sure? It is simple, because right now in this moment you can't be anywhere else.

From this perfect place you can go anywhere. You don't have to wait for the 'perfect' bank account, or the 'perfect' body, or the 'perfect' anything to begin.

Take delight in perfect you.

Blessings,
Virginia
