Welcome to my blog! My name is Mary Ellen Pierce and I want to invite you to Get Jazzed & Joyful about who you are, every day in every way! I believe that no matter what you do in life, it is important to believe in yourself and your goals and to realize it's okay to enjoy the journey and have fun along the way!
Along my journey I have discovered my inner artist to help me create expressions of myself using collage, altered art, mixed media and scrapbook techniques. I have enlisted the aid of my inner cheerleader to keep me motivated to be the Best ME that I can be!
And I want to inspire others to realize that when you get Jazzed and Joyful about being You, then what you do will turn into success, prosperity and happiness!
Believe in Yourself, Anything is Possible!

Feel and Heal

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

There is a tendency to avoid pain at all costs, deflect it, distract from it, suppress it, medicate it so we don't have to FEEL it.
However, pain is a sign to us that there is an imbalance calling for our attention, for us to learn from. Pain is a signal that our body, our mind, our spirit are not aligned and is actively working on some kind of healing.
When we can focus on the pain to ask "What are you trying to teach me and how may I assist in my own healing?" we make new awarenesses, the biggest of which is Postponing Feeling is Postponing Healing.

Affirm:
     Whatever I can Feel, I can allow to Heal.

Have a Feeling and Healing Wednesday!

Be Resolute in Achieving your Goals this year!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

The early New Year is full of resolutions. In the Webster dictionary resolution is defined as: firmness of purpose; statement of will or intent.
To be resolute is defined as: having a fixed purpose.

So as you make your resolutions this New Year give some careful thought. Develop a clear vision of what you want to create for yourself this year. Then make the commitment to yourself to be resolute in pursuing your goals. Create a powerful statement of intention and post it where you can see it regularly.

Affirm:
     I am committed and resolute in pursuing and achieving my goals for 2011. I am worthy and deserving of complete resolution in this New Year.

Have a Resolute Tuesday!

Just be You!

Today don't try to be what someone else wants you to be. Don't act like what other people tell you you should be like. Don't try to live up to someone else's expectations.
Instead, Just Be You. Be the best you today that you can be - according to you. If you make any improvements or adjustments in you- make them because it's what You want to do.
You have to live in your skin, in your head, in your own heart. So decide to be comfortable in them.
So Your mission today is to be Yourself! Just be who you are. After all you are the best expert on you.

Have a Perfectly You Wednesday!
