An Energetic Approach to an Injury

OOPS!

What weird looking feet!

What weird looking feet!

Last week, while running, I lost my footing somehow and fell. I felt pain in my left foot, so immediately, as an energy coach, I asked myself what was I not wanting to move forward in? I got up, brushed myself off, energetically worked on my foot and finished my run. I got home, got things in order, and went to my chiropractor to ensure I aligned everything correctly. Utilizing energy work, chiropractic work, essential oils and some ice packs, I’ve succeeded in minimizing swelling, pain and bruising, but it’s still not 100% yet, so I’ve opted to slow down and take things a little easy. But as you can see from the picture, no swelling and no bruising – yeah!

Time to Change Direction?

Typically in the energy profession, when an injury occurs to a leg or foot, it is related with moving forward in something. However, this time it seems it’s not that at all, but maybe I’ve been moving in the wrong direction… So I pulled out a handy reference guide “Feelings Buried Alive Never Die” and my thoughts were confirmed. its more related to the direction I was going in… not necessarily the wrong direction,
but maybe I just needed some time – some quiet time to reflect, think and refine my direction.

Taking Action!

My first line of action… clearing some generational attachment, and a timeline, (which by the way, explains why I fell down the staircase at my great aunt’s funeral over 40 years ago, and sprained my ankle – but that’s another story) along with a few other items that became apparent that I needed to clear.

Receiving Strength from a Friend…

Next, I spent some quality reading time. I have a friend in the same field as me. I met her in the Ultimate Blog Challenge… I love how she approaches this topic. How Long Do You Want To Feel Bad, written by Kathy Hadley talks about how you have a choice – a choice of how to think and act. I truly believe had I allowed negative emotions to fill my thoughts and being, I would most likely have at least a boot on my foot, or even a cast. And if I would have originally cleared the things I cleared AFTER the fall, I wouldn’t need to be taking it easy right now. (I was warned, but alas, I didn’t listen.) However, I have really enjoyed the pampering!

It’s been my experience…

When I work with clients, if they try to emotionally hold onto the negative experiences that they have cleared, I remind them that they have released whatever it was holding them in that “negative flight pattern” and take that opportunity to search for deeper blocks. Sometimes, since SimplyHealed™ is so fast and subtle, I just need to point out that the client has in fact cleared what needed to be cleared. This is where coaching is so beneficial. Coaching assists the client in realizing they are now attracting healthy, positive experiences. It allows them to give themselves the permission to embrace new experiences.

Just a thoughtDSC_0004

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to go to work every day and feel happy and productive? Think of how wonderful it would feel to be able to say “I am truly blessed” and believe it! This is all possible! When things don’t feel quite right, there are some negative emotions trapped in your energy field. Those emotions are easily released! The Monthly Group Call is a great way to maintain a strong, positive energy system!

 

New, Refreshing Restaurant Concept!

OK, so my husband is a “Foodie”. He loves finding new places, reading about them and sharing them. His newest find is this little place in SoCo in Costa Mesa. Honestly, I was very pleasantly surprised!

As you are probably aware, I prefer filling my body with living foods… but it’s pretty hard to find a good variety of those types of restaurants, and satisfy the many appetites in a family. So I’ve totally enjoyed finding places that offer compromise. I can order what I want, and whom ever I’m with can order what they want. This is the perfect place for that. Yes, they have meat, and cheese… but they also offer THIS!

BYOsalad

 

Can I just say I’m in HEAVEN!!! This is seriously the best Build Your Own Salad I’ve seen offered! Yes, of course they offer many more things than salads, but salads interest me more than anything else. I chose in category 1 a combination of mixed baby greens, kale and baby arugula. Then added in category 2, avocado, humus, artichoke hearts and toasted coconut. I skipped category 3, though they offer a vegan patty, grilled portabello mushrooms and marinated tofu. Then in category 4 I chose Nonna’s Basil Pesto.

Pictures of the actual salad didn’t happen… sorry… but let me just tell you it was WONDERFUL and HUGE! If my husband and I wanted to order soup, we could have seriously split the salad. But today my husband opted to order one of the other salad options that had grilled eggplant, carrots, sun-dried tomatoes and corn. It was delicious and huge as well.

I know this is a restaurant with a few locations. Here’s the website link for your convenience  http://www.greenleafchopshop.com/

Eat Healthy, Be Healthy

We can all improve our diet!

Yes, we can, providing we have

  1. The desire
  2. The motivation
  3. Ideas!

Here are some great ideas!!!

I have April Ashcroft’s recipe book for healthy eating, and am so excited she is now doing some youtube videos! Subscribe now so you won’t miss any of her videos!!!

 

April has great information in her recipe book, too, “Whole Food Goodness” … you can get your copy HERE

Here’s the encouragement!

I talk a lot about eating properly and increasing more whole foods into our diets because I have see such an amazing change in my life, and in the life of my husband and family simply by changing our diet. It’s sad to see people struggle with health issues when we have amazing bodies that have the ability to heal if given the proper tools… The tools I recommend are whole, organic, raw foods, essential oils and energy work. It’s the perfect combination for making a difference!

Be Motivated!DSC_0004

I hope you will take to heart the encouragement and make a change! There really is a wonderful life once you are free of the addiction to processed sugar and convenience foods. It’s wonderful living life free of cravings with the energy to live the life you desire!

Create your Victory!

A plea for your consideration…

I have a friend, Sherry Hunter, who has organized an event on FaceBook for the Utah County NAMI in behalf of Friends of Mitchel Fundraiser. Her son, Mitchel, a 27 year old Army Veteran is institutionalized with schizophrenia.  It would be wonderful if you are able and willing to donate something. At the very least, stop by and check out the pictures and accept the invitation to take part. My friend is attempting to do something very positive in the wake of a trial in her life. I commend her for that!
CLICK HERE for the event page.

Friends of Mitchel Fundraiser On Saturday, July 27th from 8:00 am – 2:00 pm ~ Utah County NAMI will be holding the annual “Friends of Mitchel” fundraiser. This fundraiser is for the NAMI Utah Walk. A huge selection of household items, clothing, furniture, books, designer handbags, collector items, and SO much more!!

We have the ability to create our lives…

You’re familiar with the saying, “When life gives you lemons, make lemon-aid!” While it’s true that the trials we face in life polish and strengthen us, and are beneficial for our growth, it’s also true that we can choose how we will endure those trials. Some people latch onto the trial and become entrenched in it their entire life. Others overcome the trial or the trial becomes so minor that it is no longer a burden to them. The latter is where true growth occurs.

So how do they do that?

We must not allow ourselves to be victims of life but rather be victors of life. There is so much more growth achieved in victory! One way to become victorious is by creating that victory. My friend Sherry is creating her victory. How would you do that? My favorite way is by writing down your victory. Create every detail in script. Some people call this their goals or list of intentions. I like to call it my manifestation list. When you write this list, it’s done a little differently in that you write it as if it has already happened, and you fill each point with emotion. In her book, “The Jackrabbit Factor, Portal to Genius”, Leslie Householder teaches this concept. I highly recommend reading her book. It is found in my recommendations on the right. As a SimplyHealed Practitioner®, we take this exercise one step further by clearing all the blocks you may have and then we plug it directly into your energy field. This takes the creation aspect up to a whole new level.

Ahhhh Sweet Success!DSC_0004

Not only have I enjoyed seeing success with my clients, but I also have personally experienced success in my own life by utilizing this avenue of creating through manifestation lists.
