Afternoon Cup Introspection/ English Breakfast / Nov 4th / 3:15pm / Sautee Nacoochee, GA. //

I have been working on the app for the past few months without problem. I was energized! I was focused! I knew exactly what I needed to do! Well, life happens… it was just this past month that my attention had been pulled in so many different directions that I lost that focus, drive, and clear path of what was next. Though I was pulled for good reason… friends and family needing emotional support, birthdays, keeping by business going… I have been extremely frustrated!

So, what do you do? It has to get done! I have deadlines! Well, when your environment does not support the mission or goal, YOU CHANGE YOUR ENVIRONMENT! Thank goodness for friends who live in beautiful places! I am up in the mountains for a week to work on the app! It’s quiet. I have everything I need. I am so taken care of I don’t even have to think about food! It’s easy to put blame on outside sources, but if I did that nothing would get done! How do you empower yourself in these types of situations? It’s only the second day being here and I have accomplished so much! The goal is to have all content requirements complete by the end of this week so all I will have to work on are edits. Time to get back to it!

Insecurity.

My insecurity…

Insecurity is one of the major issues affecting relationships and more importantly, the relationship we have with ourselves. Feeling insecure can lead to anxiety, depression. Insecurity can prevent you from being open to new opportunities and going after your dreams.

One insecurity I find myself in constant conversation around is in finding a romantic partner who will accept me around my work in Sound Healing. Fully accepting my passion for helping people in this way, being excited for me in my BIG VISION, the need to be vulnerable and feel safe in sharing my experiences in feeling and seeing energy, and the need to retreat to nature to recharge… preferably with him.

Saying an affirmation is only a gateway to a mirror in which you look at yourself.  And I mean REALLY looking at yourself.  Becoming a witness to the belief systems in place and emotions around what is holding you back.

For me, saying “I am Secure” brought up a subconscious belief of my insecurity that I will not be loved or accepted by a romantic partner because the work I do is weird and so are my experiences. In asking myself more questions, I realized the experience that this belief is linked to, and that the feeling associated with it is of heart break, sadness, and feeling misunderstood.

What are ways you can empower yourself to feel more secure?

For me, its to date. It’s to share what I do unapologetically. 
It's to show up and be visible! It’s to invite him in to an experience and see if he accepts. It’s to be me, unapologetically me, living in alignment of my truth even it makes someone else uncomfortable.  Living in alignment with your truth weeds out what you don’t want to make room for what you do want. But it starts with taking personal ownership and responsibility of the role you play.  Do this, a nd “I am Secure” will be come a way of life.

See you at a sound bath soon!

Sound Importance: Being out in nature is one of the best ways to reduce stress levels.

Sound Importance: Being out in nature is one of the best ways to reduce stress levels. A team from the Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS) has identified how the gentle burbling of a brook or the sound of the wind in the trees helps us relax — which could have a particularly positive impact on people carrying high levels of stress. Essentially, BSMS's researched showed that nature could be used to hack your parasympathetic nervous system. KEY! Because hacking your parasympathetic nervous system is one of the most powerful weapons against stress: aside from exposure to nature, the best way to kick-start that rest-and-digest mode is to take conscious control of your breathing, with a particular focus on lengthening exhalation. All things that are part of the evolution of my sound healing app! I can't wait for you to experience it!
