Shut down 24...Yesterday I needed some serious down time..I find that I get extremely overwhelmed if I don't take the necessary steps EACH day to take care of myself...and I haven't been taking those steps lately...I'm sure you can all relate. So I engaged in a self-imposed shut down and re-boot...Honestly, I can't believe I don't do this everyday because the results are just so overwhelmingly positive...Note to self- DO EVERYDAY!
I went for a much needed walk yesterday, on my way back home a took a detour and walked back through the field next to our house, I ended up in this amazing grove of trees that's on our neighbors land...every time I walk through there I want to stop and drink it in...so this time I did...I stood right in the middle, quieted my mind, did some deep breathing & some yoga stretches - heart openers- back bends- and then the tears started to fall...I don't cry easily- stoic Scottish heritage- but it comes more easily as I do this work...aaah, the relief...WHY can't I allow this more often as well??!
As I cried these words repeated in my head..."I AM Brave, I AM Brave...I am BRAVE"....and then these words..."Less Thinking, MORE DOING".
Let me be clear...I don't walk around with a shield and a sword and take on tasks of bravery and action...but when I'm called to do the work, I step up...I haven't always...but in the last 15 years of my life I've had some pretty serious stepping up to do...just a few of the many...divorce(ouch), moving "Home"(humbling), finding my soul mate-(and choosing him not only because he makes me laugh no matter what but because he calls me out on my shit and helps me own it), choosing to walk down the isle...(AGAIN), kids(life never the same), sick kid (hospital-surgeries-endless doctor's appointments), choosing to move parents in with us (dad has Alzheimer's), career moves-(following my heart's desire and purpose)...and the list will continue...
It's the person I've grown into...It's the person I want to be... I take action, I make shit happen...(I don't always myself credit....I bet you can relate to that too...) But my point is and my realization yesterday was...I am at my best when I take ACTION and I get shit done...I stop all the THINKING and I just DO. That's why I love Feng Shui because I can just DO that very thing...If something stressful is happening with my finances...I take a walk over to my wealth corner and make an adjustment...and guess what? THINGS CHANGE! It's AMAZING and I'm so grateful for this mind blowing tool. Here's just a small example...I've been meaning to shway my kids rooms for sometime...two days ago the only thing I did was place to small purple rocks in my daughter's wealth corner...yesterday she says, "Hey mom, I just found the MONEY I've been looking for...I thought I lost it!" $60 BUCKS.
Heck, yah! Of course, I immediately Shwayed the rest of BOTH of their rooms! and now I'm quietly watching for another shift...
When you Shway your wealth area, you often gain clarity about money you already had and forgotten about or you're handed a solution you couldn't see before...
So my request this week is...for all you lovely Shwayer's...Take ACTION!! Stop thinking so much and just DO. Whether you are caught up in the Find Your Shway 1.0 Course or running behind, it doesn't matter, get over to your WEALTH AREA and make an adjustment...even if it's 2 purple rocks! The power of Feng Shui provides the CLARITY...
The CLARITY you are searching for in all of your "THINKING" will come to you if you stop THINKING and you take action...
Make your move and write it in the comments below...then let's check back in tomorrow and see if anything happened...expect changes, they will come.
BIG BIG BIG LOVE to you!
