Soul Coaching

cards by Denise Linn

Today's card is

Breakthrough

"I soar into limitless love, light, and joy!?

Card meaning: You're at the precipice of a huge, positive breakthrough! Everything that you've been doing for the past few years has been preparing you for this time. An immense self-realization is on its way. Something for which you've waited a long time is about to come to fruition!

More then ever do I believe that my soul knows how to heal itself.

I went in for my six month check up, blood tests and the results.

NORMAL!!!

Everything came up, went down, and all landed in the normal column.

I am no longer "pre-" anything.

So, what do I think of my card today....spot on once again.

I have been pushing myself to become more physical and strong. I started yoga, and swimming. Kerry and I signed up to walk 5K's this summer.

Kerry and I at the Freedom 5K Run, I came in 12 in my age group, Kerry was 4th.

 

Little did I know that all of this was just a prerequisite for the

"Lazyman Triathlon".

Sarah and I will be adding Run/walking 26.2 miles, swimming 2.5 miles, biking 112 miles,

to our yoga routine for the month of July.

Sarah and I racking up the walking miles on our way to yoga

Your Soul wants you to know: Fruit drops from the tree when it's ripe, flowers open to the day when the sun rises, and a bird's egg cracks open when it's time. Everything that you've been doing has prepared you for the coming breakthrough. Quit standing on the cliff wondering what you should do. Jump off.

Yes, trust in your soul, get past the fear and do it anyway. It helps to have a partner when you are daring to do things you only thought you could daydream about. It doesn't matter that I have to go to the chiropractor each week, that I must sit on ice, heat, and use a TENS unit. It doesn't matter that I wrap and rub and limp along some days.
What matters is I show up. I prepare, I plan, I'm positive.
Oh, don't get me wrong, there are some days that my family believes in my ability more then I do. 
Thanksfully,  they wait patiently for me to catch up to their faith in me.
I'm grateful for my family, my instructors and my friends.
" Everything that you've been doing has prepared you for the coming breakthrough. "
Yes, and my preparing has taken me the last 2.5 years!!
Keep moving forward, Keep a smile on your face, there will be set backs, Keep your goals in front of you, and share them.
Be Inspired,

SOUL COACHING DAY 28

SOUL COACHING

DAY 28

EARTH WEEK

Today is the last day......it's been a great 28 days.

I'm just a bit sad....but then again, so many things have changed.

The last day was awesome.

Creating a circle of love, preparing a alter, and, finding my center.

If I was to pick the best week, I could not. Each week delivered its own challenges and surprises.

I grew leaps and bounds.

Earth week came with the most important career decisions and opportunities.

Having gone through the first weeks allowed for me not to panic and make a sound decision. One that really reflected me.

Today's affirmation

"I give love deeply and fully. I receive love deeply and fully. My essence is love."

I asked that I could open myself up to trust more, live fuller, and love completely.

New people came, old ones left and those who are still standing at the sidelines are still waiting for something to happen.  They missed it!!!

I sent my postcards to France for the mail art exhibit, "How Do You See Disabilities in the World?'

Looking back on the time of my injury give  me so much to be grateful for. While I'm not yet where I once was, I am no longer as disabled as I once was either.

Reminding myself everyday that my life is getting better, healthier, happier and stronger.

On this last day of Soul Coaching, I did level 3

Go to the Center of Your Being.

Honestly, it's long, so here is my take on it.

Put the music on LOUD, MOVE YOUR BODY, ROUND AND ROUND, SHAKE, DANCE, AND FEEL THE RHYTHM OF THE MUSIC.

Then stop, turn the music off, close your eyes, and go to the center of your being.

Feel all the emotions of the last 28 days, all the feelings, and all the coincidence's you have had.

You made it through what I think was a very intense 28 days of soul coaching.

From Day 1 to Day 28

I can see the transformation.

I loved this book.

Soul Coaching, Earth week, day 27

Soul Coaching

day 26
Earth Week

See I told you I was alittle pale looking this week.

 It's only 9:30 and I'm flying around already!!! I 'm cleaning up the house, making lists, shopping for my party tomorrow night......Mary Kay party.....

Earth Week has shaken me up a bit. I'm feeling better and that's good. Still on ice and my massage was canceled, :-(( so I'm working out the kinks myself.

Today is one of my favorite days. Creating a home for the Soul.

 My assignment for myself today is looking up URN's. Yes, that's right. It will be the home of my ashes, not my soul. But I want to pick it out and save it for when I need it later......:-)).

Level 2 assignment is to create a place in your home for your soul. That means find a place in your home that is just for you.

Day 27

I was so busy yesterday that I had to stop blogging.  And so now I'm onto day 27.

This week has been amazing. Totally amazing!!!

I'm feeling better, and what still hurts I can deal with.

Unbelievable opportunities have opened up for me this week. I almost missed them because I didn't want to be bothered. There's a lesson in that I'm sure.

Today on this 27th day I'm feeling optimistic about everything.

Today is about creating a Fabulous future.

I wrote down 10 things down that I want in my future. Some I have been working on for awhile but the timing is now.

A great question my son Matthew came up with and asked me is.

"What will you do today to make you happy in the future?"

It goes so perfectly with today. That is why I'm feeling so good. I feel like YES, I am on the right  path. Finally, things are being brought together and my ideas are starting to find a home.

Today's affirmation;

"My future is filled with love, joy, and peace!"

I have a new calmness to me. Here's the thing, I have ideas, maybe 1000 a day. I have a notebook I write them all in. Not all are great or even doable. But, I write them in anyway. The second part is making a plan to execute them. And that is what today is all about.

So today, "Act today in accordance with whom you desire to be tomorrow. Tomorrow's future is being created today, and today is yesterday's future...."

I so love this book, Soul Coaching, 28 days to discover your authentic self, by Denise Linn.  

I'm thinking of creating a little workshop to engage other women to join in to create their own authentic self.

I plan on calling this group, a safe place to share, encourage, inspire women to be the best selves they can be.

"The Invisible Women Club"

What would you do if you were not invisible?

Personable, I have felt invisible for many years. Even though I am active, available, and involved. There are many things I have not done simply because I did not have the courage to do so. It is time to act like a Visible Women.

 

I invite you to join in with me.

SOUL COACHING Day 25

SOUL COACHING

DAY 25

Soul Coaching book by Denise Linn

 

Earth week has been tough for me, not because it's hard, but because I have not been feeling so great this week.

Finding the wisdom to stick with this program this week has been hit and miss.

My philosophy that I started to take up was start saying Yes to things that come my way.

I'm finding that difficult. I missed a few opportunities this week, to make a new friend, coach someone alone, and start up a business.

When I'm not feeling well I do not think clearly. I do not think at all. Going back to correct these things seems, risky. If my first thought was to say no, was it my intuition or me just not wanting to deal with it?

Today's affirmation:

"I am in harmony with the natural rhythm of life."

Yes, I will have to repeat this one many times today.

Today's activities:

Be aware of the rhythms of nature in all its forms around you, from the rising and setting sun. ....

It's windy today, so I'm hoping that the winds will blow this very low mood I'm in far far away....

I love this book,

only 3 more days to go.....again no picture of me today, still looking pale....

Be Inspired,

Earth Week, Day 23 useing the physiology of your body

 

 

EARTH WEEK

DAY 23

 

 

Earth week has been about being more connected to your body....and this week end my body has let me know its, hurting, tired and sick. I've have spent the last two days in bed with the flu. Or at least that is what I thought it was. Could it be that doing this Soul Coaching is truly affecting me. I do the activities, write in my journal and my joy book. Attending to my health is a daily thing.

So this week end my body wanted to detoxify. So I let it.

I'm reading this very interesting book called, "Calling  Invisible Women". By Jeanne Ray

It has brought up a lot of interesting points.

What super power would you want if you can have one?

Being Invisible!!

Now, really, stop and think this one through. Not all people can be invisible. It just would not work.

Would you really want to listen to someones conversation????

Can you think of ways to help yourself, and help humanity?

What would you be doing if no one was watching you?

Interesting....live like no one can see you.

How many women or people already feel invisible and are not?

Okay, so today in Earth week,

Today;

carry yourself as if an incredible life force and confidence was flowing out of every pore of you body.

Ask yourself, What does my body say about me?

I know that I must move everyday. Not just the little walks around the house cleaning, but really moving. It is the only way I'm going to get healthy again. And when I don't move. I get so stiff and everything hurts.

I'm not sure how this happens but if you change your body, by moving, eating better, detoxing, you will change your life.

So, if you can remember sometime today so lift your head up, bring your shoulders back your life message will be better too.

If you wanted to continue Level 3: Rejuvenation Time. That is simply to remember that all of these changes takes energy. Even the smallest change in routine will spend energy.

Don't get so caught up with making changes and busying yourself that you do not take some time to reflect and relax.  Your body needs this too.

No picture of me on this day.....detoxing, and being sick is not the way I want to be seen.

EARTH Soul Coaching

EARTH

SOUL COACHING

I'm doing this little book by

Denise Linn

 

good morning,,,,this is me, even before my first cup of coffee.
 

 

 

Be Courageous...
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
~ Anaïs Nin ~ This is my last week on this program. I'm just a bit sad to see it come to an end. But as I read the introduction I see I have no time for that..

Earth week, Clearing your physical self.

This comes just in time for me to paint my next painting for the Element Show, "Earth".

 

There will be no time to rest during this week it looks like. While I am still cleaning, with all the home machines running. I just finished cleaning, decluttering under my bathroom sink. YUCK!!!! why do I keep everything that comes to me...half used bottles of shampoo, old bars of soap, I must have found 5 hairbrushes, a curling iron, I've never used, some other mysteries tubes of  creams!!!

Which brings to mind the question, "Do you ever look in someones medicine cabinet when you use their bathroom?"   Well, it's all cleaned up and out now.

 For the next seven days, focus on the physical nature of your environment.

During Earth week,

Become more connected to your body. (I looking for a STRETCH CLASS, not yoga though."

Attend to your health, (I made many Dr. Appointments)

Detoxify your body.( learning to drink lemon water)

Understand how to use your body's physiology. ( exercising)

Connect more fully with nature.(watered my plants)

Create a home for your soul.( OK, strange as this sounds, I want to make my own urn.)

Take action for a positive future.

Today is day 22, Earth, Connecting with your body.

Affirmation for the day

"I am one with the earth. I am one with my body."

There is a long list to help with making an accurate body assessment,

After I went through this list I discovered that YES, it was time to get physical and take action to take care of my body. So, Dr. appointments were made.

Eye, Dentist, Gynecologist, Monogram, Dermatologist.

Here's something  fun,  I called my Mary Kay associate and planned a party for next week.

We will have fun food, wine and girl time.

Facials, and make up expert advice.

I'm also making a promise to myself to regularly take my blood presser to keep on top of that too.

That's filled up my calendar for this week,

Have fun with this.

Soul Coaching has been a great help for me.

I welcome you to join in with me.

Soul Coaching, Fire week

FIRE!!!

Soul Coaching book by Denise Linn

what I thought was going to be a fun week, so Denise says in the first pages of fire week, and I quote from the book, "Have Fun!"

Well, yes I did have fun, and I did get organized and yes I did create some awesome artwork. But, I would like to also say, "What a crazy week!!!"

Facing my shadow self was not fun, she came at me from no where and held on to me for the entire week.

Examining my fears, was no surprise except to learn that I have passed a few of them and left them behind. That was fun to know.

Changing my routines and habits. Oh, fun, fun, fun. New hair style, new ways to wear a scarf, and considering a new decorating scheme.

But the image of pretending  "your dead"...well, interesting, hance the back of my head picture. Because of that days activity, I made a "will". Guess who's getting my cat's?......You will just have to wait until my will is read.

This week too, I finished my 'FIRE" painting for the element art exhibit.

It's been a big week, lots of things got done.

Still cleaning, clearing and I have a to do list that has tripled.

Before and After  and now you can really see my vision for Paris.

Last day of FIRE, I look pretty good. May I just say, not so easy taking picture of yourself. I'm just saying....I love my kindle.

I love this little book. Make no mistake in thinking that these little activities are easy. They are anything but easy and some are more time consuming then others.

Join me in this little book,

Fire, Soul Coaching

FIRE

book and program

Soul Coaching, by Denise Linn

Day 16 Fire, shadow self, through the mirror



Fire, Clearing Your Spiritual Self. Yes, I'm going to enjoy this week. Or so I'm hoping....

It's April, not fire season where I live, so for me to focus on fire around me, it will have to be the fire I create. I'm thinking candle, lots and lots of candles.

Sunlight is a form of fire too. So I have opened all the curtains. Letting the light shine in.

This week is focusing on the light and shadows in your surroundings.

During Fire week;

Step into trust and faith.

Meditate on your inner light.

Listen to any inner voices urging you to branch out in a new direction.

Change your routines and habits.

Take risks.

Activate creativity.

Access your spiritual allies.

Face your shadow self.

Examine your fears

HAVE FUN!!

I've made it to day 16. Happy to get out of water and into fire. But, in some way sad that I have not been able to complete all the assignments from the last weeks. I'm still masterfully decluttering my space, and cleaning and shining things. I still have to make an appointment to get my air ducts clean from Air Week, and my bathroom sink is still clogged from water week!!! But I'm moving on to FIRE

Today is about taking risks. "If you do what you have always done, you will get what you have always gotten." So, change is in the air all around me.

Affirmation for the day;

"I am free to experience joy in every moment...no matter what is happening in my life."

Today;

constantly ask yourself, "How can I experience even more joy and fun today?" and see what your subconscious comes up with!

FUN, FUN, FUN, yes, I like that.

I went out and bought three scarfs to wear and play with. As you can see in my picture. I'm learning how to tie them in different knots and hanging them with flair.

(looking playful, take practice)

I love to laugh so I looked up fun kitten movies.

This ones cool.

Level 3 today is to Break a Habit

ok, I will break several habits that I'm aware of. I made a list for three things I do each day that I should, Or have known I should be changing.

One day at a time with these , I think they are habits because I enjoy them, but my rational mind knows that they are bad for me.

Three seems like a good number to me. Morning, noon, and night.

Fire, Heartburn, acrly, 36 ' x32

I didn't want to jump into fire to quickly, but so far, I like fire the best.

Have fun today

Soul Coaching Days

WATER WEEK

CLEARING YOUR EMOTIONAL SELF

Well I will say that with this week of water came rain and snow!!! Just after I took out my sandals and carpi's.

This week is more about cleaning than clearing out. Water traditionally represents emotions, so this week we clear out emotional issues.

During Water Week you will:

1. Explore your emotional life.
2. cleanse your house, office, and car, (I added my purse to this list.)
3. Evaluate your relationships.(I had to get a bigger notebook for this)
4. Communicate from your heart, especially the things that you have been afraid to say.(I wrote a letter to myself and Mailed it!!!)
5. Encourage your inner child to play.(So much fun, went on line to find a new craft to do.)
6. Embrace your childlike wonder.( I went into the kitchen and baked my favorite cake, just because no one else did.)
7. Examine childhood issues.(Again, this is what I needed a big notebook for)
8. Explore your dreams.( I made new dreams, seems with action, and hard work one of my new dreams had already came true, without any ceramony!!! I will not let that happen again.)
9. follow your intuition (I let myself be talked into things....I must trust my instinct and not let anyone talk for me. Learn a hard lesson this week.)
10. Bathe, shower, soak, cleans your body.(facials are fun)
11. check your plumbing ( how does the universe do this, yes my sink plugged up)
12. Drink,drink,drink water
13. It's a very long list, and may I say I did not get through all of it. I find when examining ones emotional life it may take longer than 15 min's a day to write down the answers to all the questions. But, I did give it a good go.
14. 
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
15. "Affirmation for the Day
16. "I unconditionally accept my feeling...and what I feel is not who I am."
17. "My life experiences have positive, powerful meaning."
18. "I am moving into harmony with everyone and everything in my universe."
19. "I am loved and lovable"
20. "In the center of my being, there is always stillness and peace."
21. "My life is blessed, and I am so grateful."
22. "who I am is enough, just as I am."
23. I really love this program, clearing out and cleaning up has to be a good thing. I find that I just don't have enough time to do all the suggestions in one day.
24.  But I have made myself a master list for each day to complete. With each new day one more thing goes on it. I can feel the change beginning. Even more than that there is an acceptance I have not felt before. My foundations are being supported by my inner peace.
25. The book is Soul Coaching, by Denise Linn
26. If you have done this book, share with me. If you want to do this book with me, come along.

Spring Cleaning Feng Shui

SOUL COACHING DAY 5  AIR

Part of the air week is learning to see joy and surprises in your life. So I have a second journal titled "Joy Journal."  this is where I write, draw, collage and have poetry, photos... One a day to chronicle the simple moments and the great surprise of life. Magical moments of each day of the program. So there I am, eating Chinese dinner with my little fortune cookie. Well anyone who knows me knows I buy a box of these cookies just so I can have a fortune cookie wish. This one says, "I will have a surprise today."  Very simply put.."How do they know these things!!" Later, after dinner, I went to my art workshop. We are a group of artists who work together and encourage each other and now we are getting ready for a big Art Exhibit at the Northeastern Nevada Museum. I went to pay for my five canvas's which I thought were $50.00 each only to find out they were on $25.00. BIG SURPRISE!!! Oh I just love this when it happens. Did it go in my Joy Journal,,,,you bet it did.

Air week is all about cleaning out, your mind, emotions, energy and home. I found this site that I feel is a good place to start.
Enjoy the energy once you start this process you will just feel lighter, I did and I do.

Day 4

 

Air

I can not think of a better song to go with this weeks AIR

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb7S8-Iewi0

Where are you now in your life?

Core beliefs about life, rigid rules you have created on your own. I'm not one for going into ones past, but, Denise makes sense when she says, we are what are parent told us we are. Even if you want something different those words you heard while you were young stay with you.

Affirmation for the Day

"I love and accept who I am...and who I am is enough."

Now I'm not going to say I had a bad childhood, or that I was neglected or abused.

In someway I may have had all of that in little doses.

My current thinking is that everyone did the best they could at the time.

Because I love writing and know how powerful words are, I can understand how they sit in your subconscious.

On level one Committed to Change! Be the Sacred Observer.

I sometimes think I don't know what my beliefs are. So today, I will listen to what I tell myself, what are the words I use to describe myself. Listening to the internal dialogue and observe the language and words I use will give me an idea of how I feel about myself and what I believe.

changing your language can change your life.

I am lonely can become I am open for love.

I am exhausted can become I am recharging

I am slow moving can become I move at my own speed.

I am in pain can be my body is telling me something.

I am a bad speller can be I love spell check

my arts not good enough can be you are learning to express yourself better each day.

Today

observe your life while you hold the thought that the events of your life today are neither good or bad, they are just the events of the day. They are only good or bad depending upon the meaning that you give them.

Make a list of your faults, and see how you can turn them into a positive.

Core Beliefs is a notion that you have held so long and repeated so often that it has become entrenched into your subconscious mind.

These things take time to write down and think about, and continue to think of how I am going to change these core beliefs.

I invite you to go through this book with me. I would love to form a support group here.
