I am delighted to say I am writing you from Ireland- returning here is a dream that has come true for me! I am spending a year living between Dublin, Ireland and London, England. This was a dream that I held very close to my heart for many years. My journey here has taught me many lessons including; that jumping off the cliff without water, as I moved towards my dream, can be very risky, yet if I do not make a jump- I stay still. I also learned that when I have clear intention and dedication to this intention- anything is possible. I believe we all need to have updated visions or dreams as this is what motivates and guides me to create the new. Do you have a dream? What now needs to happen for you to be living it?

I would like to know. I ask because this is the question I asked myself when I realized I had reached many of my dreams and stopped dreaming. Often lethargy, a lack of peace and excitement for life are symptoms that show up when we stop dreaming.  The world is in a state of transformation. Old systems are falling away-violence and disharmony abound. This is more the reason for us to hold a vision or a dream and move towards making it real. Light and dark are forces that have always been on earth- for eternity. It is now time – more than ever to move towards your dream!
I am here to support you – take a look at how I can help.

Join me for a One- Time Guidance Session where we will explore how to get you to create what is next for you in your life. In this session we will:

  • use intuitive guidance, yours and mine to create what is next for you in life and or business
  • work with high level visioning and energetic alignment work
  • do block clearing
  • create support steps and follow up strategies to root the new vision or dream

1½ hour session- $299.00 (through August 15th).

Are you in?  Your dream may not be as far away as you think.

Ready to Take the Plunge?

I believe now more than ever before in the history of planet earth that we are all being asked to:

v  Know and live with the exact purpose that we are here to live- in the forefront of our day and in the way we prioritize our time use.

v  Realize that we are the caption of our own ship. We by our beliefs and actions, each day, guide the outcome of our life.

v  Life is wonderful when we find out where we need to wake up ( form old habits, limiting beliefs and all else that keeps us small) and when we begin to bust through all limitations and fully show up as the amazing being we truly are.

I now see precisely where I have held myself back and I now know just how clear my day to day intentions need to be. It has become clear to me in my own life that the clearer I am about my intentions the more powerful the outcomes are.  I guess by now the sounds obvious since so many world teachers are focusing on the power of intention.  The trutIMG_2513h of the matter is that it needs to become an integrated part of our daily practice or these are just senseless words. And the real truth is that a new portal of possibility has opened and your fully showing up is not just a nice thing – it is essential for us to turn spaceship earth around from the nose dive it seems to be facing.

We now each need to understand what the bigger picture of our life holds.  What is the meaning we are here to express, or live or create?  True magic in life arises when we line up this bigger picture with our daily choices.  The bigger picture serves as a litmus test in which we can begin to measure if our life is in alignment or not.

For many years, I’ve been discussing the idea that each of us has a higher purpose or meaning.  It is the responsibility of each of us to discover our own higher purpose.  A few questions that you may want to ask yourself might include:

·         How can I allow more good into my life?

·         What brings me pure joy?

·         What is deeply meaningful for me?

·         What is the best way for me to develop a life that allows me to live my purpose or meaning for being here now- today?

·         What is the best way for me to create quiet time or time for introspection so that I can find the true answer to this question?

It’s funny- I was just thinking how fast time moves by…like a swift moving river. As I speak with women today on a regular basis I hear the comment that life moves so fast.  For this very reason it is essential that we create time to answer these very important questions.  Once we do, our quality of life becomes far richer and more meaningful.

Sometimes we slip into playing and living in a much smaller and safer way than we are really here and capable of living. The key to moving beyond this place is to get conscious and to begin to really live the life we most desire. For many of us this desire may feel distant or faraway or perhaps we have been there but lost our way and need to regroup. We often get cues or hints in or daily life that gets us thinking – am I happy , is this life really working for me? Some of us freeze like Bambi in headlights when we hear these messages and stay small- as change can be uncertain and staying where we are seems safer.  Some of us reach overwhelm and question our whole life, its meaning and purpose.  We all get a moment of pause that allows us to question how we are really living life.

woman-570883_960_720

When we are being called forward to live more consciously we usually:

Ø  Get a niggling feeling that something is not right…that we are not fulfilled

Ø  Experience a reoccurring sense that there is more to life than the way I am now living.

Ø  Or get another sign in a way we are used to receiving information

Always listen to these cues because they provide invaluable opportunities and subtle openings for change and lasting success.

Recently I realized that I had a lot on my plate and that my priorities and my ability to accomplish what I needed to accomplish while still loving my life was becoming a challenge. I had one of those niggling feeling that something was not right. I had to stop- slow down – listen – take the bull by the horns and reprioritize my days based on what I truly desired most- that aligned with what I value most.

So where does getting VERY clear on our desires enter into the picture?

What we desire is central to designing a life of success and meaning. When you understand your deepest desire (and have tested it to see if it is linked with your highest reason for being here -your destiny) your life will take on a new rich meaning- fulfillment will be central to your every day. You then know that you are on the path to a life well lived.

Let’s get practical here is the roadmap I have used to anchor my deepest desires and values in my day and to measure- daily- how I am doing:

Ø  First be clear about your dream– what do you really want to accomplish (be it in your life or a given month- the art here is clarity about what you want!

Ø  Next, take small measurable steps to build more of this dream into your day (find a teacher or mentor who has already accomplished it, research about it – to build understanding. Do whatever you can to make it real.

Ø  See yourself already there- picture yourself living or accomplishing this great desire ( it really helps to take the distance and blocks away). As you become more comfortable and familiar with the desire it slowly becomes apart of your world.

Ø  Notice coincidences and synchronicities….these are gold dust. Every day here are signs, messages and intuitive knowledge available to us. We must be proactive and invite this wisdom in and use it.

Ø  Close each day with a review of what was wonderful about the day and aligned your day actually was with your greatest desires and values. We are living in an era where great consciousness is needed. Be very conscious and very intentional.

These days that we are living in are absolutely amazing. We have many choices available to us each day. Live life fully. It is your choice.

Let me know if I can be of help. I am committed to your success- your success from the inside out!

Uncertainty serves as one of our greatest teachers.  When we see it as an opportunity to regroup.  In a world that moves fast and places great pressure on us, we tend to need to know, to control.  Control and knowing serve as crutches or security in a world where we really truly know very little and need to be prepared to live from a place of unknowing.

Are you willing to consider looking at uncertainty in a new way?  Could you see it as a friend, an ally – and opportunity?

The opportunities that can be found in trusting what is uncertain are vast.  Try to include some new thinking around uncertainty and use these keys to guide you:

  • What uncertainty are you faced with now?
  • What is the message or teaching that the uncertainty presenting to you?
  • Where could you apply greater trust?
  • What would be the next right action?

Again, I truly believe that uncertainty is an ally and a great teacher – nothing to fear. ~ Maureen Simon

What does “really knowing”-really mean? Is it possible to really know what is right for us or to really know what path to take? Can we live doubtless, fearless and clear lives?

I believe so. I believe that there is clear guidance that can give us a sense of assuredness- from the inside out if we take the time to listen and if we decide to trust. How do we get to know and eventually claim this assuredness? To me this is what conscious living really is all about.

Many of us live life like a leaf blowing in the wind…allowing external voices and forces  to stir us around hence we never really “get “what we want or need. Many women that I have spoken with  have told me that they get so caught up in the external picture of what is right or being asked of them that they are not sure – who they “really are”. Some say they lack confidence and clarity on what their lives are really about- living in a state of unassured confusion…

I think we all have times when we question our life and how we are living it but there comes a time when we must be conscious about how we want to live – life—about why we are really here and about what we really desire and create it. This level of refined living IS conscious living!

To really deeply know:

  • Why you are really here on this fine earth
  • What is most important to you
  • What you really want
  • How to truly enjoy life

You MUST:

  • Stop Daily to listen
  • Reflect and pay attention to messages thoughts and divinations from within
  • Draw clear information from these messages- that can be applied practically in your daily life
  • Create space to include new commitments- ideas and ways of working and being in your day to day life

Through my work with hundreds of women individually and with thousands in groups I have been fortunate to support many women to see their lives with totally new eyes as they claim divine clarity!

Give it a go….you may be amazed at what you find from within!

IMG_4959We’ve been talking about the Elixir Course for the past month. One of the most important things we women need is financial independence.  Many of us have chosen to create sustainable businesses that support our values.  Over the last five years I’ve hundreds of conversations with women who have pointed out that they have had to change or adapt their business to become more relevant or to adapt to new market needs.  The fac e of business is changing.  Relevance is an essential theme to business.  One of my all time favorite things to do is to evaluate a business based on the following criteria:

  • Does It meet a specific market need
  • Is it financially sustainable
  • Does the woman founder/director believe fully in her business.

I truly believe that when we line up our lives with the essence with why we are here, success becomes easily accessible.  However, we still need to have an expertise, passion and diligence in the work we do.  Did you ever consider changing the work you do?  Or, designing or re-designing your business to include something you do well or have a strong interest in.  Stagnation is a great killer.  Never fear change.  Especially, when you have a strong niggling or calling to do something differently.  Are you getting new ideas?  Is something unique or different calling you?  Are you learning new skills that could be applied in new ways? Are you ready to innovate, contribute or change something?

I and my team here at The Essential Company have been working diligently to create the Elixir Course for Women:  http://theessentialfeminine.com/shop#life-elixir

I truly believe that we are not much without each other.

When I first had the vision to start The Essential Feminine Company I did not know where to start. I did know that we women have amazing attributes that the world now needs to survive but I was not sure how to begin to research the attributes or how to get the word out. Even before writing the book I was clueless about how to get a better sense for –if what I was thinking resonated with my sisters- friends and colleagues and even if my work and research with Feminine Attributes would make a difference to women’s lives..

I started to reach out…talk about what I believe deeply and I stared to ask for support from women that I most respect. Two years down the road I can look back and see the thousands of women’s lives that have been touched by classes, networking and support. I can also look back and see the many- many women who have supported me in making my dream to serve women a reality. Without each other – we really ARE NOT MUCH. It is in our respect for each other and in the respect and support that we hold for each other’s vision that we ourselves become whole. Quantum physics is enlightening us to understand that we are all interconnected. All life is reliant on all other life AND ALL LIFE IS INTERCONNECTED.

On that note – in the next few months I would like to feature an amazing woman who has deeply inspired me and who has been a major contributor to the success of The Essential Feminine Company. This month I would like to start with:

Nikki Di Virgilio….Nikki is an amazing transformational writer and teacher I was fascinated by Nikki s ability to teach us through her personal life experiences. Her writing show vulnerability and strength that I have gained much from.  I thank her for being an inspiring support and part of our team here at The Essential Feminine Company. Be sure to check our blog to read her work and  visit Nikki’s website and blog at: www.nikkidivirgilio.com

Visit Facebook today to listen to the interview I did with Nikki!

This week I have I been enjoying looking at the summer and taking inventory of the challenges and fruitful opportunities that the past 3 months have brought. Each year as the seasons fold from one to another I find I have a strong urge to stop and reflect…This reflection has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Having a Celtic background the turning of the seasons holds great significance. Each season has a feel and rhythm that is honored.

My greatest lessons this summer have been:

  •  My friends are really my tribe and guardian angels and I love and care for them very much.
  • Taking care of and being with family are super high priority.
  • When I move too fast and cut back on the care I give myself – I pay a price.
  • Lots of time in nature totally fills my soul and rejuvenates me.

I would love to hear what the summer lessons you have gained this summer.

To me having a clear conscious understanding of life’s lessons is living consciously.
