Powerful Mind, Soulful Spirit


How much of what you read inspires you? When you chose what & who you want to be it is easier to find things
that inspire you, or please you, or fill you with joy, hope, & love. You will find articles, books, people, songs, & sites that will find their way to you, & sometimes just drop into your lap. This is when things just click. You are flowing with the Universe & all is pretty good. This is the Universe setting out for you what you have requested. Either consciously or unconsciously by your dominating thought patterns.

How much of what happens to you is like a "mini-miracle?" Questions like this may have some people scoff, but when your life is really flowing, when you actually feel that everything is just 'working' for you...each day can unfold "mini-miracles." You can chose to intentionally set your day, your success, your life in motion each day or you let life push & shove you here & there. Each day make it a practice, like your yoga, workout, or meditation, to intentionally set the outcome for your day. Intend to make new connections that will serve you, your vision, & others. Make a quick list of things that you "stake your claim" in. 'I intend to be open & accepting of all gifts & guidances today. I intend to live out my passion today. I intend to be open & loving to everyone today. I intend to have fun today. I intend to build a better relationship today with.." And the list could go on to build powerful intent in whatever area you want. But first you have to set an outline for your powerful mind to follow. Your brain needs to be retrained just like training for anything else. If you want to run a marathon, you train. If you want a successful, loving & joyful life, there is some retraining of your mind (depending on what limiting beliefs you hold about yourself) is required. Intend, Affirm, Believe, Feel, Experience!

In reading, "The Snowball, Warren Buffet & the Business of Life," one thing that really grabbed me was his following comment - "you can either live life by having an internal scorecard or an external scorecard." You can set out to live life doing what makes you happy, do what makes your soul sing, do what gets you moving, revved or pumped - or you can do what makes others happy. We have all done this at one point or another - it is a matter of how much of what you do every day really answers to your passion? Is it for you or for someone else? If you live most of your day in actions trying to please others, & in making decisions based on what people think, feel, or say about you, then you are not living life in honor of your authentic self & your feelings & emotions will also tell you this. In life, you will get knocked around & pushed about, but it is a matter of staying true to who you are & retraining your mind to a point where you no longer question what is right for you. You just do it!

So, stand still & listen. What is your passion, vision, mission for your life? What moves you & makes you feel alive? What sets a fire within? Follow this! This is who you are - authentic & real & waiting for you to move forward with it & just allow it to be, expand & explore. Allow your spirit to be soulful in the moment.

Make each day a journey back to you. Center yourself within all that feels good for you. Build networks of people that support & encourage you. Follow your passion & create a vision around that. Intend with passion! Enjoy & allow life to flow with ease because we were all meant to live an amazing life.

My wishes of joy for you always,

Peace Out,
Joanna :)

Find Self? You are already there!


This weekend was such an amazing weekend. Spending some quality time with the family - watching my little ones
test the waters of so many new experiences. In going to the mall with them & stopping into a cafe for a snack, turned out to be another cool learning experience in my own journey. Who would have thought that an every day event like getting a muffin & juice with the kids would unfold such insight...
So we are standing in line, (anyone with 2 toddlers who are tired & hungry knows that waiting in line for anything can be challenging enough) & as I am trying to wrangle my angels into line & to gather them from patrons tables that border the lineup. As they are curious about everyone & what they are doing, eating & drinking....I am trying to figure out in the quickest way possible what we will all have to snack on.
As I run down the 4 board menu with over a 100 items, feeling a little hurried, I notice my 21mth old daughter who is fearless of everything, is climbing the back of an empty wooden high chair that is sitting at someone table behind me. As I turn & bend down to get her & apologize to the young lady sitting there fixing her books that were shuffled in the process of the high chair smacking against the table....I noticed (unknowingly & just because my face was right over top of it) a book that must have been her daily journal. Written in big block letters across the page was "FIND SELF?"
So as I sit down and feed the little ones, I remember being there in her exact seat. Sitting in a cafe, with my journals, wondering & analyzing where my life was going, who would I end up with, what was life all about, why am I here, what is my purpose and who am I? This young girl on the outside looked like any other 20 something, attractive, hopeful eyes, promising smile.
I wanted so much to sit and talk with her, to tell her some things I wish I had been told at that age. I remember being embarrassed about all my confusing life questions. I did not have anyone to talk to about all of these confusing emotions & questions. The things that every 20' something goes through on their path to realization. When they decide to start to define themselves on their own terms, and release themselves away from their parents view of who they should be. I remember thinking about the core things I believe in now, just more evolved through my learning. It made me wonder how many other young women are out there questioning their existence, their purpose & their path....it made me feel compassion from knowing I had been there & remember how most days felt... confusing, life fluttering around you, life carrying you on its way - not your way.
So, I guess with this message my hope is that if we remember our innate ability to feel compassion every day. To understand the shoes our neighbours walk in. In finding your way along your path you will be sent circumstances that allow you to see your own personal growth & expansion. In this growth there is also an opportunity to expand our own compassion, empathy, & desire to be there for others. Your friends, your children, your community. We are all here to connect & reconnect. To experience the expansion from our own growth within the world. This powerful place we call home - we are powerful to experience it all...We are all trying to find our way.
Have an amazing Monday & remember that you are always right there! You were never really lost - even though it may seem that way sometimes. Take time to connect with your true self, inner self, inner being, your spirit - whatever you want to call it...it is waiting for you!
Peace Out,
Love & Blessings,
Joanna

If anything - Connect!


Just wanted to end the week on a high note....This week has been an amazing week - the Universe has been pulling all the stops in showing me that I am on the right track. Something so cool just clicked within me after another Universal "click" fell into place for me. It has been said that when you know you are in alignment with your desires, things just start happening. People start coming into your life, phone calls start happening, emails start coming in and a buzz is created...you flow with it and you begin to realize that you have created greatness. Well, amongst all the enlightenment & good things happening it was not the 'results' that had me so stoked.
It was the looking at how I have grown in doing things I would have never done before. Putting myself out there & connecting with the most awesome people as a result of it.

I have learned that it is not about the results per say, it is about the process. What you learn & gain in the process. The growth - or the expansion as "Abraham-Hicks" would say. It is so true.
In running my business, if I had done this 8mths ago, I probably would have not created all these blogs & talking with, marketing myself to some amazing people. I did not carry the confidence or self-worth that I have now or the ability to understand that it is not about being the best or getting a sale/success on every attempt at something. It is about the growth & allowing to ride this path & above all connecting with all the people along the way. The most important connection yet has been with getting to know who I am & what I am really about. This life may be filled with all the things we need to learn our own lessons, but what you need most is a respect & partnership with yourself to have a full, happy, vibrant, & successful life. It doesn't matter if everything you do is a success in numbers, sales, or anyone else's version of goalposts - it is about you & the happiness you carry with you through life. Can you be truly happy in the ride your on? (And I don't mean car you are driving)

Have you made the time to connect & see the heart of life in everyone, in life, in you?

Everyone's story is a little different & each person is good - at the core of it all there is good.
Try to see it & you will be amazed at what you attract in return. That is the connection we are meant to experience - some connection with others that allows us to see things about our own growth.

Very tre-cool! Crazy cool...anyhow, not sure if it all makes sense or just a abstract ramble but had to throw it in there.
Peace out and my blessings to all - "Check out our "PASSION & ENERGY" line coming this winter.

Sincerely,
Joanna

The Economy-When 'Not' to go with the flow


When 'not' to go with the Flow!

Well, with all of the negative & worrying news plastered everywhere about the uncertain economy,
I wanted to be sure that I was not going to follow that dismal path. To go against the flow of what the majority appears to be focussing on is the suffering economy. So, to this I say; "I choose not to get sucked into the turmoil!" You see, if you allow the comments/beliefs of what the 'whole' of something is, be it good or bad affect your success in life then you will forever be chasing after the goal post of others. Not yours.

I cannot remember the last time I read a newspaper, or watched a newscast, or logged on to a news site to get the 'low down.' Because as far as I was concerned, when I made the decision to cancel all of my subscriptions & choice to go there, the 'going there' really did bring me 'low down.' Even though I donot subscribe to all the news outlets, you would have to be completely out of it not to know that there is a buzz of gloom that hangs with the words economy/banks/interest rates/investments and so on. So, I know what is going on out there, but I consciously choose NOT to let it affect how I intend my day, my events, my business, and so on. I merely choose not get all caught up in the swirl of it.

My advice to anyone finding themselves listening in to the drama, or getting pulled in, is to take a step back. Do an emotional check-in with yourself & ask yourself how your feeling about being involved in it. If you are feeling down, sad, bad, helpless, broke, or any other negative catalyst - move on & get back on track. You always have the answers within you. Listen to your inner guidance system & go with its' flow, not the flow of the popular majority or what seems to be the buzz of the moment.

Every time my husband informs me, or reminds me, or tries to get me sucked into a conversation about the state of the economy or the presidential debate (even though we are Canadian & have our own voting to be done) [he appears to be very intrigued in US politics] he pokes at me to 'come in and be on my side" conversation & I just say, "It's all good, don't worry." Then it is "what do you mean it is all good don't you know this is happening etc....." And off he goes in another gloom rant. So I say, "Honey, I am not saying the state of the economy is good or bad. I am saying that I choose to think of every situation as "good." He rolls his eyes & says "ok hunny!" {so I guess he gets frustrated when I am constantly practicing this "Law of Attraction" thing on him ;)}

I know it is hard to get your thoughts around something so generic like that, especially when people are loosing their jobs, and mortgage payments are being sacrificed, but in every situation, you can bring yourself to feeling better by starting with 'good.'

If I choose to wallow, or join in all the discussions about how bad things are, it just makes me feel bad, & I won't go there willingly. Feelings of being unworthy, broke, and so on is not worth it. So I chose to go somewhere good. If it is bad, I will somehow talk my way into it being good. I "EXPECT" it will all be good if not amazing. I mean really, the decision of what is good or bad is only each persons interpretation of it anyhow.

Even in the toughest financial times, recession & lay offs, there seem to still be people that come out on top ( and I don't necessarily those that obtain a financial gain.) These are people who have remained steadfast in their vision of an abundant life.

You don't have to have millions in the bank to think like a millionaire, or feel like a millionaire, or believe that you are coming into prosperity in every situation in your life. Feel it & live it in your vibration throughout your every day life. You will notice after a while that as everyone around you is worrying & scurring (which will make the situation worse) you are coming into 'feel good' abundance. It could be a chance meeting with someone, or a phone call, or a letter, or even a free coffee because the servers at "Starbucks" made too many drinks on the previous order. (this has happened more times that I can count to me)

So, instead of riding on that dismal worry-train to nowhere land, don't get sucked in by the hype of how terrible things are - live your day in expectation, & in eagerness in waiting for your fortune's - [however small they may seem - a coffee is a coffee & is a sign you are on the right path of expectation]

Now more than ever is the best time to start on a path of changing your daily thought patterns if you have felt yourself getting drained or sad due to conversations that do nothing to your advancing your life. If you feel bad then listen. Your emotions are your guidance system & telling you to get back on track. Listen to your inner self & get back to living a good life instead of a scared & worried life. Focus on your current abundance & think, feel, & believe of your prosperity coming. Your thoughts, your family, your tenacity, your health, and so on...make an appreciation list of all of your current abundances. Then make a list of things you want to have, obtain, or be a part of. Your goal list - is still applicable even if times are tough! Times are only tough if you believe they are. If you let the negative energy come into your belief systems & let the negative flow of the news & the industry carry you with it - then it is only a matter of minutes before you feel the difference within yourself of the shift taking place. Feeling negative, or bad is a shift that is telling you that you are turning away from your true essence of your true 'goodness.' Your essence only wants to be good & only be surrounded by good.

So, the next time you feel yourself going with the current of a negative flowing river, stop yourself & shift it back to your source, your essence. You will ALWAYS know what is best for you. Listen. If it makes you feel sad or bad, or not enough, then get back on your track!

Times are good! I have never felt better! I have never looked better! My family & I have so much fun! They are healthy, I am healthy! Life is pretty good.....And build it from there.

Always try to start off from somewhere good - then build your reality from there....

Hope this has brought a little good to someone somewhere! My hope is for your happiness in each day!
Feel good first - then move forward! It will almost always work out to bringing you to a 'better than expected' place & results!
Peace Out & "BE" abundant!
Stay tuned for our "Passion & Inspire Greatness" lines coming this winter!

Are you the only one getting it?


I have been aware of the world around me lately. Since committing to this spiritual, personal journey I have been on over the past 8 mths that I feel I have had a heightened sense of awareness. I no longer watch TV, or read the newspapers, or listen to negative people, (they may talk - but I tune them out) even though I turn off these arena's of information, I feel more tuned in now than ever before. I am lining up with everything within me - my soul, my spirit, my source - me. I am allowing me the power to guide without question, trust, & balance about life that was always there - it was simply muffled out by the noise of the world.
I have recently been tuning into Abraham-Hicks - I have become so clear about so much....since tuning in...I have noticed that others look at me like I am really living in the clouds. Ok by me! I have always been a dreamer, but this time my dream has energy, life, movement, faith, belief, momentum...and so on. When I speak of my "how I see things & how I want to live" they look at me & say things in trying to bring me back to reality so I can ride their train in life.
People don't like to feel 'left behind.' Even if they do not understand or want what you live. It means that they are not ready to hear, or understand what you are living. That is ok. I no longer try to explain or justify my journey.
I bless & send prayers of love to everyone in my circle....regardless of their comments, views, or opinions.
Even if you are the only one who get's it...it is ok! You are becoming more aware of your energy, your potential, your vibration that is continually shifting as you grow & expand. All that really matters is that you feel good doing what you are doing.
It is all good - it feels good to me & my reality feels pretty good!
Who can argue with that? Their reality is theirs. Your reality is the only reality you are responsible for - so make it the biggest, most grand, most lavish, most lush, most desirable reality you can conjure up.
Dream it, live it!
We have some exciting clothes & styles coming this winter for those who love to dress themselves in 'Good Vibe" clothes - we have PASSION for our Fashion! Stay tuned & check us out for our winter relaunch!!!!!
Fashion with PASSION! Be what you wear!
