Being Enough

 "Here’s the thing about not-enoughness - have you every stopped and questioned it? Where/who did this message come from? Are they a credible source? 

"What would make you enough? Enough what exactly? Who is holding your imaginary measure stick….and whacking you over the head with it every chance they get (hint, look in the mirror)?" - Heidi Sequoia Moondancer

What changes, when we view ourselves as enough, and shift our perspective?  What do we wish to spend our life force on? 

If you journal, this is something you may wish to explore on the page. 

  • What are my favorite ways of 'just being?'
  • What challenge have I faced / overcome recently?  
  • What are some wins over the last year?
  • What will best support me, throughout this year?
  • I feel best when _______
  • A couple of things I'd like to do this year / places I'd like to go/ people to see  _____
  • My values include ______ (often related to health, spending time with loved one, spiritual values, interacting with your community ...)
  • If I could be remembered for one thing, it would be ____________ 

Through Quantum physics, we realize that the act of observation changes what is being observed. What shifts, when we change our self perception?  

What are some ways you are 'enough?'

  1. The question about "enough" is a powerful one that I use with my clients as we are redesigning their business and life to honor their health and well-being. It is a great way to help set boundaries and identify what you have in your life. A couple of ways I am enough is by not chasing vanity metrics or honoring the grind culture's mindset of do more. I track what matters (my health and well-being) and have set boundaries for interacting with clients and partners.

  2. Your blog resonates with me. Some of the outside messaging from the world insists that we are not enough. It takes a strong person to overcome those messages and stay within themself - not influenced by these negative messaging. But even the strongest person can be swayed by their own brain. Eckhart Tolle covers the ego concept in his books which is basically your brain turning against you. I now question myself whenever those negative thoughts about myself start to arise. Thanks so much for sharing this insightful blog!

  4. The most solid reason a person is "enough" lies in the fact that worth is an inherent state of being, not a performance metric. In short, you are a complete person, not a half-finished project waiting for someone else's approval to be considered "done."

Morning friendly Space

 In a recent podcast , Feng Shui maven Amanda Gibby Peters offers ways to set ourselves up for success in our endeavors by setting routines and areas that support them. Amanda often shares tips for boosting our homes positive energy - these are simple to implement - and you may already i n place!  Early in the year, many folks reevaluate what's working and what we'd like to improve and achieve in the year ahead. Our surroundings can support implementing these intentions.  Vision board -2025 Put your home to bed . I've written before,  that 'tidy folks' often take 'walk throughs' several times a day - putting things away, disposing trash, and tending little things that need doing. Doing the last walk through before bed helps set space for the day ahead, and streamline morning routines. Optimize your bedroom . Is it a dumping ground for extra things? Do you have a system for clothes that can be reworn? ( The 'floor-drobe' isn't the best option!)  ...

What is Soul Collage?

  A day or so ago, my daughter asked, 'what is Soul Collage?' ... here's the elevator pitch: Soul Collage cards combine several images, usually from magazines and calendars, assembled and glued onto a card baking. We usually don't include words on the cards, inviting the image to inform is.  The size is either 5×7" or 5x8" - large enough for several images, small enough to work with easily.  When a card is finished, the creator uses several journal prompts to "meet" the cards, and to receive information and insights from the images we've chosen.  The cards represent different aspects of ourselves and of the community around us.  After making several cards, we can use them as we might any oracle deck, consulting or own inner wisdom. We can use them for daily inspiration, or random 'readings.' We can journal more when a card comes up ... In Soul Collage Evolving, founder Seena Frost writes, " The process of selecting images and maki...

Reset - Red Thread Circle

  As a group of us prepare  to sift stagnant energy in  our homes, you're invited to set your intention for your space and a bit of Reset.  In our Intentional art community, we set intention in a Red Thread ceremony.  This is  a way to connect as a respectful, mutually supportive group, and begin to inter-weave the threads of our stories.  Red Thread circle The Red Thread has a profound capacity for connecting hearts and minds around what matters. When we face a challenge, we "tug on the Red Thread" as a reminder we aren't alone, and may tap into this web of support. Participants are invited to gather Red Thread, embroidery floss or ribbon, journal, and pour a cup of tea as we begin.    Can you imagine your space as a living Altar?  What is your intention for this cycle? What old stories do you tell yourself about your home? How will you reward your progress? What's your first action step? Take some time to journal on any of these inquir...
