My word for the year, and…

I was just wondering why Spaciousness was my word this year.

We are now almost half way through the year (can you believe it?) and so much is up for renewal!

Take my body for instance. I notice immediately when it is in Overwhelm, because my cravings go up, neck tension starts, I get a little reactive, and my creativity goes out the window. If I partake in Overwhelm long enough, I even gain weight… ugh. My body is a perfect barometer of where I am.

These five symptoms are representative of about 15 other symptoms of adrenal fatigue, and even a sluggish thyroid. At first when I feel the symptoms, I hear myself saying, “Really?” Then I realize and remember that I have a deep knowing of how to bring myself back to the state of energized inspiration.

I had lots of practice as a nutritionist and a former perfectionist.

And for me, it starts with Spaciousness… in fact, way more than I thought I needed. And to really feel myself have access to thriving with energy, love and focus, it has taken what I like to call “deep skills” when it comes to Spaciousness. From there, I can find my way to the answers, nutrition, practices, and what my spirit and biology require to need less sleep, find peace, connect with clarity, and create moving forward.

It’s been a lot this year. Even a week ago, there was an eclipse, and some pretty heavy duty solar flares. And, this week there is a lunar eclipse and the full moon happening during the online program, Get Out of Your Own Way™ to Overwhelm NO, Spaciousness YES.

I am so looking forward to this full moon, as it is always an opportunity for a choice point and renewal. A powerful time where the ability to make lasting change, to shift our biology and our lives into spaciousness together, are deeply available.

I like to use the polarity that is happening in the world as a catalyst for my expansiveness, but it takes “deep skills,” and I am the first to own that. Especially in the world the way it is now. That’s why we planned for our Get Out of Your Own Way™, Spaciousness Yes, Overwhelm No to be on Friday, May 13th, in the evening, and during the day of Saturday, May 14th.

There is an “or better” bonus to participating in this upcoming Get Out of Your Own Way™ Spaciousness Yes, Overwhelm No, as The Wide Awakening Team and I included a year’s membership to our exclusive Agents of Awakening Community. Here, like minds and hearts meet up online, and it has many other bonuses when you sign up for this weekend! Some of those are, to name a few, our fall Get Out of Your Own Way™ – True Fulfillment and Meaning, Monthly BE² workshop calls, and the Agents of Awakening Book Club.

This Friday evening is the prep class, and I’m going to speak about Adrenal and Thyroid Vitality During Times of Great Change; yep, I’m bringing nutrition into it! This was my specialty when I ran The Vital You Nutrition Clinic and I can’t wait to share it with you.

 

With love,
Jennifer

Fear does an interesting thing to our brains

Fear does an interesting thing to our brains

Fear does an interesting thing to our brains.

I was listening to a brilliant podcast a few days ago which my husband reminded me about. Although they didn’t talk about this specifically, it struck me how important it is to understand how our brains work. In understanding this, I’m able to follow my knowing and feel connected to clarity, instead of being manipulated by noise which can only happen if I’m in fear; it’s so easy to be in fear these days, don’t you think?

Fight or flight creates an interesting shift in the brain causing us to relate to those who disagree with our viewpoint as the “other”, and there are those who want to manipulate others in order to protect themselves.

The key to thriving is…

A key to thriving is remembering that doing this is actually important.

It’s ‘nothing’.

That’s the thing, doing nothing is doing something.I’m sure you’ve sometimes tried to keep pushing through a project when life is showing you the harder and longer you push, the more unproductive things get, right?

I’m so guilty of feeling invincible or, put another way, stubbornly carrying on instead of being present to what life is showing, or sometimes commanding, me to do.

I always thought that I had to find the right person…

I know I’ve shared this before, but I think it’s worth revisiting. Thinking about my journey, I regret none of my previous relationships. Studying the laws of physics has given me so much clarity around my time with dear partners from the past.

I always thought I had to find the right person. Nope. Not about that. They find you. And that is based on a few important shifts in thinking that changed my life.

1. LOVE JUST IS – love is in and through everything, available at all times. There’s nothing to create as, if it really is love, then it’s already unconditional. Love that feels conditional is actually more about acceptance or approval.
