I think we could all write a thank you letter to our bodies. I know that I feel I ought to thank mine. A letter to thank it for all that it has endured, supported, and maintained me, for all that it does for me, through sometimes less than ideal conditions. And some of these conditions are our own choices which are not the best choices for our bodies.

Finding our sense of balance and connecting with our inner essence can help us to find our voice. If we take the time to balance and connect with ourselves before we begin writing or public speaking, we will attune to our authentic selves, express ourselves more easily, and be more readily prepared for our challenge.

Are you hiding your light under a bushel? That expression means are you concealing your talents or abilities.  Sometimes we do this because we are afraid of what others will think. Deep down, we may be afraid that we are not ready for the attention and praise or we may be afraid of the judgement and criticism that we fear may be directed at us.

In order to succeed you must first create a success mindset. Here are five simple steps to start you on your way...

Often we wonder how we can engage in creative activities if we are not talented and we worry that we can’t draw/paint/etc. Creative activities such as visual arts do not need to be techniques based. It can be about exploring and just enjoying connecting with your creative soul again. 

If you hate the thought of saying an affirmation to yourself each day or just never thought it was something that you would do, you may want to give affirmations a chance and reap the benefits they can bring.  An affirmation, or a positive short phrase or sentence that we say to ourselves and then repeat throughout the day as needed, is reassuring. It provides reassurance to us that we have some control over our realities and that by repeating the affirmation, we can affect a very real outcome. 

Spring is a time of renewal and rejuvenation for all of earth.  We can help the process along by taking some simple actions...

Instead of being afraid of failing we should ask ourselves what we can learn and how we can serve.
