THE ART OF SELF JOURNAL

Build your castle. Your castle (your home) is everywhere you go. Your home is you. The place you can always rely on to have your back, To have you feel safe, To be your cheerleader, To be your strength & guide. You can live anywhere in the world, but if you're own inner home is not cared for, you will always feel like something is lacking in your life. The other day I took my son out of school for the last part of the day and we took off to the beach. It's something I've d

What is it costing you? For everything that you think about, dream about, yet you continue to push it to the side, Continuing to accept only half the pie, mediocre, this will do, this is better than nothing at all and never really being able to sit and wait for or accept what you know in your heart that you deserve, that you dream about. I know you dream... I know you wish for more... I know you have a bigger picture than the one you're in right now... So what is it costin

Are you accepting less than, because those around you have? Think about that sentence for a moment, 'Because those around you have...' Maybe you think they don't want more, but maybe they do too, just like you, Yet everyone's just become so set in their ways that each one is just waiting for another to make the move. Well how about you make the move. Why not be the first and stop waiting on someone else to lead the way. You get to go first. As adults we have normalised way

You've got to let parts of you die... There's so much of you that wants to move forward, move into having, being, doing more of what you've experiencing right now, yet it's not really happening because you're holding onto so much of who you have being instead of who you get to be. If you could meet the person I was, you would see how much of me I've let die. There are definitely things I still embrace of my old self, because it's those parts of me that keeps me going, that

Your medicine is in your expression. You require nothing more to make you feel better within yourself and connected back to you. Your health relies on this more than anything else...it's the piece many are missing. Feeling tightness in your chest and a grip around your throat, Is your sign to speak the words that you're holding onto. If you're sitting in hope or wonder with another, Share what you would love to see happen and you will know if it's reciprocated. You will kn

Start squeezing all the goodness out of you and bring every little ounce of you to the table of life and hold nothing back. There is so much goodness in so many people, and so much of it is being held back. I get it, because I was that person for way too long myself....and I'm still squeezing more out of me. We are forever evolving... we are made to, if only we allow ourselves to explore all parts of us. I want to see you fast tracking to what is for you in life...you know,

See everything that you want for yourself as a relationship. And I mean everything. When you treat what you wish to see for yourself, What you wish to bring into this world, What you want to create in this life time of yours, It means getting really committed to it as you would do with a relationship. Honour it, Respect it, Love it, Enjoy it, Find ways to make it work, Don't give up in the hard times. Do what is required of you to play your part. You don't plan to have a b

You don't have to be the loudest, The most energetic person to truly express yourself. Expression comes in ALL forms, And when you find what makes you tick, what works for you, Your energy will just naturally come through. Some express themselves through sound of singing, dancing, music, speaking, performing, Others through the quietness of sketching, painting, writing, stillness of nature And then there are the ones who are a mix of it all, This is the space that I sit in

Let's be honest we can't be on every minute of every day. We can be trucking along nicely and then think ' What the....' What happened, What changed, Where did things start to get messy again, When did the balls fall from the air & drop to the ground? Lifes sneaky little suckers sneak back in. Life will always have it's messy moments for sure, The joys of life right, But once you become aware again, then it's time to do something about it. Something has to change. We know th
