Relax & Be Yourself!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
It is very stressful to try to live up to everyone else's standards for you, to people please, over commit because you're afraid to say No, do things out of guilt rather than free will, hold back your own thoughts and feelings because someone may not like or agree with you.

Just for today try something different. Be your version of you, please yourself, commit only to what you really want to do, speak your thoughts and share your feelings with truth and love.
Just for today - relax and Be You! After all no one can tell you you're doing it wrong because you're the expert on you!

Have a Be True to You Monday!

Don't Forget to Breathe!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Many times when our day or life becomes hectic we speed up our pace trying to keep up with everything and everyone. When we do this we don't even realize that our breathing changes. We breathe shallower, faster and sporadically. The physical effect this has on our bodies and our brains is that we take in less oxygen and keep more carbon dioxide.
This results in feeling sluggish, tense, irritable and out of balance.

So today, don't forget to Breathe! Take a moment of your day and stop and breathe in .... fully and completely and then breathe out .... fully and completely.

Then take a moment to review your pace for the day. If you are feeling hectic, stressed, feeling like time is running out or that you need to clone yourself 3 or 4 times to get everything done, perhaps this is the time to slooooow down! Revise your schedule, delegate some things out, prioritize, bump some things to the next day, or week, and then put a time slot in there just for you.
Prioritize yourself into your day today. Breathe yourself into a calm space and breath in more oxygen to your system and re-balance your body and your brain. NOW - you're ready for anything!

Affirm:
     Today I remember to Breathe myself into balance.

Have a full tank of oxygen Thursday!

Relax into Reality

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
What you resist shall persist. So today relax into what is. Reality is reality and trying to force a change in your reality creates chaos and pain for you. Rather, change the way you are looking at your reality because when you change the way you look at your reality, then your whole perception of your reality changes. Your pain and discomfort is simply the difference between what reality actually is and what you want it to be.

Affirm:
    Today my reality works better for me when I change the things that I can change, like my attitude towards my reality.

Have a new view Wednesday!
