THE ART OF SELF JOURNAL

Somewhere along the line, you set your system on auto-pilot. Your days on repeat in many ways. There is nothing wrong with being on repeat if these things are beneficial to you, but when you wonder why things stay the same, in a way you're not satisfied with, this is why. You're walking around in life on auto-pilot...wondering to yourself, how did I get here in my life, when did this all happen or how did so much time pass me by with what feels like very little change or grow

Your ideal relationship...What does it look like? Feel, smell, taste, sound like?...haha ya get the drift How do you show up to it yourself? Well, let me say this...everything, every area in your life... Are you showing up to it like you would your ideal relationship? Many are not! I haven't always. I've been in and out of showing up in many of these areas. Valuing health, then not Valuing money, then not Valuing work, then not. Look at each area and ask yourself, is this

I first started photographing women over 10 years ago and finding it in me to step in front of the camera myself was challenging...all the stories on repeat playing in my mind why I shouldn't, couldn't, wouldn't....yet I was asking and wishing for other women to step in front of the camera. I could see all these great things about other women, but I couldn't see it in myself. We have spent years pulling ourselves apart internally & externally for decades, comparing ourselves

We say the people who go against the grain are the ones who do or look at things a lot differently to the majority, the rebel so to speak. The ones who want to push the boundaries on what society normally runs by, yet when I think about it, they're not really the ones going against the grain...(by others, yes sure, but....) I think the majority are going against the grain...going against the grain of their most natural, truthful way of being. Those who you look to as 'Going

Where does your mind go? What do you often find yourself thinking about most often? If you find yourself always thinking about what you 'Don't want' or how you 'Don't like' a certain something, you are putting focus there. If you find yourself choosing to do certain things that has the idea of what you 'Don't want' in mind, then you're moving in the wrong direction. You've made it about something else instead of the real goal in mind. What you entertain grows... So all the

Stop asking for directions! You already know the way... Our map is already laid out, the only thing is we can't see the whole thing yet, we are only given pieces of our map each waking day to walk towards, yet many of us aren't moving, we aren't taking the next step. Many of have parked up on the side of the road waiting for others to come along and tell us the way. We are asking others which way to go, how to get to where we want to go, stopping and waiting for others to t

We look often to all the things we should be doing to make life that much sweeter, adding this, that and the other to the list of things to be better, feel better. Often looking outside of ourselves to give us the boost we need. Looking to others to give us the feeling of being connected to ourselves, yet it's only an illusion as the moment we are no longer connected to others we feel a disconnect with ourselves. It's the relationship that we have with ourselves that's the r

WE ARE NOT SEPARATE...WE ARE ALL ONE Yet many separate oneself from others. I at time, have separated myself from other people due to many reasons...my beliefs, my insecurities, my lack of, my thinking I'm better than another, my not feeling good enough next to another...it can sneaks in in many many ways. Now, when I feel any part of me separate myself or another, I look inwards to see 'why' which helps bring me back to my center, helps me heal another little piece of me an

Every day that you wake up, remember your name. As you walk out the door, remember your name. Everywhere you go, remember your name. Remembering your name is remembering who you are, where you came from, who you want to be and what you're here for. What you're here to do in this world, in this one life. These three words have been quietly speaking to me for a little while now, For a number of years I've been writing, writing pages of thought-provoking content that just out
