It’s a Lovelee Day

Posted on by

Affirmation: I embody and reflect the energy of the Goddess Kwan Yin, Bodhisattva of Compassion. I love myself, my loved ones and life unconditionally.

I’ve built many Kwan Yin altars over the years. She’s one of my favorite to work with. She is the Goddess of Compassion and Mercy. The divine female Buddha whose name means “she who hears the cries of the world.” Kwan Yin is an ascended master who chose to remain in the earthly realms until all other living souls have completed their  own enlightenment.

I have found that working with her energy has taught me to be more accepting and compassionate both towards others and myself. Often we can be quite hard on ourselves and when I look to Kwan Yin, she alway reminds me to forgive and treat myself with more gentle compassion.  Just looking at her statue in this picture makes me smile and soften my energy. She brings about a sense of kindness doesn’t she?

When you go about your day today. Think of Kwan Yin and feel her energy. You can’t help but feel loved for everything that you are! And when you feel that way you reflect that out to the world around you reminding others that they too are loved for everything they are.

Have a LOVELEE DAY!

Walking With Light and Love

Posted on by


Affirmation: I am grounded and centered with love for Mother Earth.  I move forward on my journey with calm, balanced energy. I touch the ground with full awareness in each step I take.

Have you ever done a walking meditation? The first time I did one I was on a retreat hiking in Big Sur, CA. It really taught me to be in the present moment and aware of the ground beneath me in every step I took; because as you take each step you stay conscious of your feet, and ensure that every part of your foot meets the ground.

When we walk we are fully supported by the ground beneath us. It hugs our feet in every step we take. I think very often a lot of us take this for granted. Its good to notice how supported we are by Mother Earth. I find doing this exercise helps remind and wake me up to my connection with Gaia. I also notice I am more gentle with each of my steps, and it seems to reflect a calmer, more gentle me.

Take some time today to pay attention to each step you take. Do a walking meditation and see what it leads you to discover.  Remember to stay conscious and breathe. As you take each step be sure each part of your foot touches the ground.

Peace of Mind

Affirmation: I am peaceful. I live according to my inner guidance and I serve to bring light, love and healing to myself and others.

I had a little help from Doreen Virtue’s Healing with the Fairies and Angels Oracle Cards for today’s affirmation. It rings very true today for me, and as I wrote it I could feel gentle, peaceful energy both inside and all around me.

The more I center myself in this state of being, the more content and happy I seem to feel. It’s like being hugged by a soft warm blanket. I’m going to be sure to stay aware and carry this energy with me throughout the day today. I hope it inspires you to do the same.

It’s a bright, beautiful, sunny Sunday in San Francisco today! Enjoy your day where ever you are. May you have peace of mind and know you are loved and supported!

With love, light and faerie dust,

Being Aware of The Law of Attraction

Posted on by

Affirmation: I am aware of my exceptional life. No matter where I am, I see and feel it in all its perfection. I am in love with my amazing life.

If you read yesterday’s post you would have saw that I was going to post the results of Happy Friday later in the day. Well…. later in the day rolled into today. 🙂

What I found was that whenever I said Happy Friday to someone it was returned with a huge smile. Whether is was the lady standing solemly at the bus stop who said, “Hey Baby!” back to me, or the homeless man digging through the garbage who told me to “Have a great weekend!” It always came back with a big smile. A smile I didn’t see before I said it. And seeing them smile really made my heart feel all warm and fuzzy. Then this morning my yoga instructor greated us with, “Happy Saturday!” Coincidence? As far as I’m concerned there is no such thing as a coincidence. I believe its a lesson in Law of Attraction. What we put out there comes back, and the universe likes to show us in a variety of different ways. We just need to be aware in the present moment.

If you know about “The Secret” you know about The Law of Attraction. I knew about the Law of Attraction long before The Secret though. It was something I learned through my spiritual studies over 20 years ago. What I can tell you is The Law of Attraction is a universal law and it does work. So be sure to stay conscious of your thoughts and feelings. Take notice of what you are thinking when you are feeling certain feelings and vice versa, because the universe doesn’t place judgement, it just responds according to the combined energy and the power behind that energy.

What do you want to attract in your life?

Remember you have an amazing life. Start with the awareness of recognizing you have it and the rest is just about simmering the ingrediants to perfection.

With love, light and faerie dust!

Say Yes!

Posted on by


Affirmation: I am open to the new people, opportunities and experiences life sends me. I recognize them by the sense of familiarity, comfort and safety I feel. I say YES to Life!

Ok, maybe I said YES to shopping today…

By no means do I advocate that shopping brings eternal happiness, obviously its a short fix. However, sometimes a little retail therapy does you good. Today, I feel my purchase went a bit longer than just an addition to my wardrobe though. Why? Well, I bought a pair yoga tights today from Clary Sage Organics. Like I said by no means am I advocating shopping, but I do definitely advocate supporting companies that are making a difference and helping Mother Earth.

What’s so special about these yoga tights? They are 91% PET (recycled plastic waterbottles). There are 6 waterbottles in a pair of tights. That’s 6 waterbottles that would have ended up in landfills. Now that something to say YES to.

Check them out at Clary Sage Organics.

Say YES to being ecologically responsible.

10 Ten Steps to a Brighter Day

Posted on by

Raidar

Affirmation: Love is all around me. It comes in many different forms. Life loves and supports me.

I got some news today.

Not exactly the news I wanted to hear but it was an answer to something I’ve been waiting to hear on. Did it make me happy? Well, because it wasn’t the news I wanted to hear I can’t say I was super ecstatic over it, but the thing is, I’m not relying on these types of things to control my state of happiness. Instead I’m just accepting it for what it is and not letting it get me down. We often want the things outside ourselves to make us happy, but as you learn in every self help book out there and in life in general, true happiness really does come from within.

Our thoughts control how we feel, and if we let things we don’t like or don’t want to hear control how we feel then we aren’t allowing life to be the guide. Now I will say that despite the not so great news I got, Life did bring me something else that has the potential to turn into something very exciting. More to come on that on later date though.

In the meantime, in the present moment, I’ve got little Raidar Brown (as seen the photo above) sitting in my lap staring up at me as I write this. Now how could I not feel how much love life has for me? Knowing that life is giving me this much love is one of the most beautiful feelings in the world. So… if things are getting you down, if you are feeling a little unloved, mad, annoyed or just plain frustrated follow these ten steps. They always work for me, I dare you to try them. 

1) Stop!

2) Shut your eyes.

3) Take a big breath. 1 – 2 – 3…

4) Think of someone or something you love unconditionally.

5) Feel the love in your heart.

6) Now open your eyes and see what the first thing is you gaze upon. Maybe its a tree, a bird, the sun, a person, or even just some inaminate object.

7) Send love to it.

8) Feel the love you get in return.

9) See you are loved.

10) Now go about your day and take note of all the good things happening to you, no matter how small or big they may seem.

Enjoy your day! And may the littlest things turn into some of the brightest!
