Remember…

What do you do to remember your why?

You know… your why. Why do you do what you do. What was your passion when you began that project. What was your inspiration that propelled you to action?

Remember your why

Is your “Why” strong enough to create emotion?

It’s important to have a strong “why”. If your why doesn’t tug at your heart strings, chances are it won’t be strong enough to cling to should things become difficult. A strong why will be easy to remember…

Have difficulties clouded your why?

It’s a fact that on this earth there are going to be ups and downs. There are good times and not so good times. Sometimes those difficult times can blot your why into oblivion. People do various things to keep their focus on their why… what works well for one person isn’t always the best approach for another. What do you do to remember your why?

Here’s are some great suggestions. Of course taking a break to regroup is a tactic that works for some, while others just want to push through. Sometimes we just need to re-focus and try something different. Maybe spending the day with loved ones, or just re-connecting with nature. Exercising is always an amazing way to clear out stress and tension.

Remember…

The only time your truly fail in your endeavors is when you choose to quit. The voices that speak negative words in your mind are not your friend. This is when energy therapy is very effective. Sometimes those negative Nellies are simply energetic crimps from inherited DNA.

 

Grateful for Snoring!

I bet you’ve never heard someone say THAT!snoring

Really? Grateful for Snoring???

Last night I had an experience with my dear husband that really punctuated my gratitude. My husband has been having some concerns with his employment. He regrets his choice of occupations, and has endured a rocky road with his choice. I woke up last night with him sitting up in bed with an uncomfortable feeling in his chest. His anxious thoughts were literally running away with him, causing his heart to race.

Half Asleep isn’t my A game!

Since I was half asleep, I encouraged him to apply some essential oils, but he wasn’t finding support or strength from them. By this time, I was awake, and my body was wanting to get up thinking I had slept my full night’s sleep. So I got up, went in the bathroom and applied some oils to lull me back to sleep. While I was up, the thought came to me that he needed energy work, and not just a dedication, as I would normally do in the middle of the night. So I climbed back into bed, and walked him through a mini session to realign his energy and flush all the crazy, false thoughts running through his mind, along with strengthening his vibration. When I finished, he became very quiet and still, so I held his hand thinking to check for a pulse – he was that still! Then moments later I heard soft gentle snoring. I was so grateful to hear that! It told me that he was back to sleep and resting peacefully. In what normally would have been hours of anxiously watching the clock, in moments he was peacefully sleeping.

What Gives You the Support You Need?

I’m grateful for essential oils and the wonderful gifts that come from the earth. They are glorious. I’m also very grateful for understanding energy and the ability I have to clear it when the urgent occasion presents itself!

This year we celebrated 40 years of marriage! We have both expressed how blessed and amazed we are that we put up with each other all these years. I was such a baby at 19 years old when we married! I’m overwhelmed with gratitude that Geoff has always been committed and devoted to me. We often laugh and wonder why!

We are so proud of our family and enjoy so much hearing of all the goings on! We are grateful for cousins, aunts & uncles, sisters, nieces & nephews who love us and continue to keep in touch. Brian & his family enjoy traveling and spending time abroad any chance they get! We are so grateful that he works in a job that allows him to take his family on such amazing adventures! Kristi has continued in her athletic businesses and is currently performing in a dinner house locally! She amazes us with her strength and determination! We are ever grateful for Geoff’s ability to work and provide for us as I continue to build my health, energy and oils businesses.

At this time of year when people gather their families together to celebrate the birth of the Savior, our hearts and minds are focused upon the sacred gift He is. We have leaned upon His Atonement for strength many times and felt a powerful peace that only it can provide. Our hearts swell with gratitude for this divine gift.

Happy Birthday Dear Friend!

Happy HAPPY Birthday, Dani!

This is my friend and her husband… Dani & ben and dani2Ben Montoya! They are amazing people! Dani and I have connected on a very deep level from the day we met over 20 years ago. We have been through a lot together. There have been fun times and not so fun times. There was the years Ben fried turkeys for the holidays! Oh my gosh! Forget the delicious stuffing and sweet potatoes… all we wanted to eat was the turkey! And Dani’s brisket was better than any restaurant! And then there was the Christmas Eve that we got together and made ornaments. I cherish that ornament and all the Christmas decorations she has painted for me! I am so grateful that she is in my life. I feared that we would part when they moved to Oklahoma…

Loretta_DaniBut before they left, on Ben’s significant birthday, Dani threw a birthday bash for her dear husband. It was such fun! But oh was it a lot of work! She never let on it was a lot of work. Admirably Dani can put together anything with grace.

 

Her home was filled with family and friends! I loved that Geoff captured this expression of love…

Dani is a hard worker, and extremely creative. When we first became friends, she showed me some

dani blingof her art work that she painted on Harley gas tanks. She is just such a creative soul!!! I love that I have so many of her creations. I feel her love and energy in each piece. There was a day I could not spend much money, so it was at that time that she gave me pieces as gifts, but now that I can purchase some I feel like I hog them all! Shown here are some of my most favorite pieces…

 

In nearly every aspect of my life are the creations of this dear lady! She is the one who created my website, and we share in our essential oils business. I love that!

Let’s Celebrate with Her!

Dani… potter, weaver, painter, musician, web designer, Reiki Master, creator, crystal loving extraordinaire is happy to spend this significant birthday quietly at home without a lot of hoopla… so I say we bring the hoopla to her! It doesn’t take much but a text, or a Facebook message to let her know that you are thinking of her on her special day… but if you cannot message her on her exact birthday of October 2nd, just know that she is celebrating ALL WEEK! And if you happen to live nearby… visit her at her store in Poteau and buy a piece of her art! Let’s fill her week with joy, happiness and LOVE!

Celebrating you, my friend… with love!

Choose Determination!

The Drought of Adversity

Many of you may know that California, where I live, has been in a serious drought. All around us we see the plants, trees and grasses dying off. It’s a symbol of adversity. Adversity, if we allow it can tear us apart, cause us to hold onto or cultivate negative thoughts, and create illness in our body or in our existence. Or… it can make us stronger. It’s all up to us and the way we choose to perceive it. We are born with a wonderful attribute – DETERMINATION.

Choosing to be Strong in the Face of Adversity

I looked out at my yard the other day and was shocked at what I saw! The plumerias are not only surviving the drought, they are flourishing! I’ve never seen the bush so large and full of blooms! It is easily double in size and much fuller and lush than it has ever been! It was an affirmation to me that this little tree is determined to flourish and be beautiful in spite of the adversity it is currently under!

We can take a lesson from this beauty in nature. When we are faced with adversity… be it a small set back or a huge life changing catastrophe, what is our attitude? Do we shrivel up and die? Or do we reach deep into our reservoir of determination and find a way around the adversity? For some it may just be changing our thought process. In other situations, it may be uprooting our life.

 

Wise Council from a Father…

Buddy Wilson, approx 16 years old

In a conversation with my dad many years ago, I asked him how he faced the adversity in his life. He told me he just laced up his boot strings tightly and just kept going, moving forward until he could feel comfortable resting. Those were very wise words that came from a man who faced a lot of adversity in his life. I’ve never forgotten those words. And now I extend his words to you. I hope I have helped you in your resolve to dig deep into those reserves of determination. Know that whatever it is that you struggle with right now, will pass, and you can and will rise triumphant! Allow the adversity to bring out the best in you. Find the positive thoughts within. Fill your heart & soul with gratitude for all that is good and wonderful surrounding you – both now and in the future! Take a deep breath and tighten your boot laces and move forward!
