Re-Enchant Your Life

Today you're being reminded to be honest with yourself.

Be honest as you connect with your inner wisdom and listen to its truth.

What is it really whispering to you?

What guidance does it offer you?

No matter how much you try and hide from, or ignore the truth, you know.

You know what you need to do.

You know what you need to start or end.

You know what direction you're headed.

Sometimes it may seem easier or more convenient to say 'I don't know'.

To say 'I don't know' can seem the simpler option, rather than admitting the truth and turning your world upside down, leaving careers, ending relationships, or disappointing people. But there is a place inside of you that knows the truth.

Slow down, get quiet and listen for those whispers.

You don't need to take action or make changes right now, just start by being honest with yourself.

You owe it to yourself to be honest and show yourself integrity.

In this very moment, just pause and take a breath, as you listen to the truth.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is acknowledge any area of your life that currently feels out of alignment to you.

What area(s) of your life do you feel that you're living out of your own integrity?

Be still and listen to your inner wisdom, the truth within you that knows.

The quiet voice inside that whispers to you.

Listen and make changes, or at least acknowledge the need for change.

Pause, and take a breath. As you give yourself permission to be honest with yourself.

Today's Affirmation:

"I am honest with myself because I value who I am"

Today you're being reminded to shut out the noise.

You know what you're here to do.

You know what needs to be done.

You believe in yourself and you're ready to take action.

But then… Someone tells you that you can't, you shouldn't, you mustn't.

You get overwhelmed by the opinions and judgements of those around you.

You try and manage the emotions, feelings and expectations of others.

You may even try convincing other people of your choices, but your voice isn't heard and falls on deaf ears.

You're kind, thoughtful and compassionate. You don't want to upset people.

You want to be seen a particular way and don't want to disappoint or hurt others.

And then suddenly, under the weight or other people's thoughts, feelings, and expectations, you find yourself unsure of what it is you want to do and are confused and doubtful about your next steps.

Are you wrong?

Are you being selfish?

Do other people know best?

When you find yourself in this pattern, it's time to shut out the noise from others, and reconnect to yourself, your values, your truth and your priorities.

Reconnect to what's important to you.

Align. Focus. And commit to your own path.

Your path is yours alone to walk, no one else can do it for you, so make sure as you move forward that you're the one holding the compass and map.

In this very moment, just pause and take a breath, as you shut out the noise that surrounds you.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to shut out the noise and remind yourself of what's truly important to you.

What calls to you?

What's that dream that won't go away?

What's really important to you, but has been neglected for far too long?

Reconnect with your priorities and commit to them.

Make a plan for how you can move towards them and trust in yourself more.

Pause, and take a breath. As you remember what's important to you.

Today's Affirmation:

"I commit to myself and my priorities"

Today you're being reminded that growth is part of the process.

The time, effort, and challenges that you can face as you progress along your path are an essential part of the journey.

They are often the parts that we resist, try to avoid, or numb out, but they are needed as part of the process, your process, of unfolding.

These challenges can often bring discomfort, but they also bring growth.

Just as the little sapling must learn how to weather the elements so that it grows stronger, and in time can stand against all the weather and even the storms it will encounter, you too must strengthen your resilience, and grow as a person, so that you can stand strong and follow your dreams and desires.

You need to face challenges so that you can grow deep roots and stand your ground on the things and causes that are important to you.

You need to face obstacles so that you can be clear on your resolve about what's truly aligned with your feelings and values.

You can make the process easier by knowing what to expect, having the right tools and support in place, and then embracing it.

Resisting the process just makes it harder on you, and more tiring and overwhelming for yourself.

In this very moment, pause, and take a breath. As you embrace the process.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to embrace your growth.

Notice what challenges you're currently facing, and what you've been avoiding.

Get clear on what you need to support you so that you can weather the challenges and overcome them, in preparation for the next stage of your journey.

Pause, and take a breath. As you feel into your resilience.

"I embrace all stages of my journey"

Today you're being reminded to get to know yourself.

Know yourself so deeply and intimately that you have absolute confidence in who you are and what you want from life.

Know yourself so well that you know what's yours and what's not, particularly in relation to beliefs and fears.

Know yourself so well that you can create a life that honours the truth of who you are.

Understand what's important to you, what lights you up and what you're passionate about.

Throughout life you'll continue to learn more about yourself.

Challenges help you to understand what's important to you, as they show you what you're willing to overcome and what you'll give up on.

Successes show you what you're good at, or at least what challenges you'll persist with.

Each event in life helps you to understand more about yourself and reveal a truer version of you.

As more of your true self is revealed, the more you can own your power as you know what actions and values align with who you are.

You do not need for other people to understand your truth.

You do not need their validation, permission or acceptance for you to honour yourself.

Once you understand yourself better you can make choices that support your values, feelings and energy, and you're less influenced by the demands and expectations of outside influences.

In this very moment, just pause, and take a breath. As you commit to getting to know yourself better.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to take the time to get really clear on who you are, what's important to you and what you stand for.

Who would you be if you lived a life that honoured what's important to you, rather than focussing on what you think you should do or what's expected of you?

What would you start doing and what would you stop doing?

Who are you when no-one's looking?

Pause, and take a breath. As you prioritise getting to know yourself better.

Today's Affirmation:

"I honour the truth of who I am"

Today you're being reminded to create a life that feels great.

Choose to create a life that feels great, rather than prioritising a life that looks great.

Create a life that feels great, because it aligns with your values and nourishes you emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually.

Focus more on honouring your feelings, and what you truly want, rather than how it may look to others.

Create a life of substance and meaning for yourself.

It doesn't matter if it isn't what's expected of you.

It doesn't matter if other people don't understand the way in which you choose to live your life.

It doesn't matter if your life looks messy or if it looks glossy.

All that matters is that you create a life that nourishes and nurtures you.

This is your life you need to live it for you.

In this very moment, just pause, and take a breath. As you honour feeling great.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to notice where you might be making choices that have been prioritising how you look to others, over honouring how you feel.

What choices would you make differently if you were to focus on your feelings and what lights you up?

What changes can you make that nourish you and prioritise how you feel, rather than how you want to be perceived.

Pause, and take a breath. As you get clear on how you can create a life that honours what you want.

Today you're being reminded that you need to meet your own needs.

Looking outside of yourself for someone to know, or guess, what you need, waiting for someone to rescue or fix you or your situation, will just leave you anxious, frustrated and reliant on others for your own sense of inner peace.

It's time to get clear on what you need.

This may mean asking for what you need.

It may include getting help and support from others.

But it always starts with you getting clear on what you need and then asking and doing what it takes to get it.

Meeting your own needs, is about knowing yourself well enough that you know exactly what you need.

And it's about recognising that your needs change.

Your needs can change throughout the month, the year and when dealing with certain situations. Get to know yourself, your needs and how they change.

Meeting your own needs is about honouring your need for rest and not just trying to keep going.

And it's also about taking inspired action.

It's about doing what you know is right for you, even if it doesn't make sense to those around you.

Most of all, it's about showing yourself love, compassion and kindness.

In this very moment, just pause, and take a breath. As you acknowledge your own needs.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to get clear on what you need.

What do you need today, right now?

How can you be kinder and more compassionate to yourself?

Do you need to set clearer or firmer boundaries?

Do you need to say 'yes' or say 'no' to opportunities or other people?

Do you need to rest or take action?

Pause, and take a breath. As you get clear on what you need right now in this moment.

Today's Affirmation:

"I honour my own changing needs"

Today you're being reminded to allow yourself to change.

It's more than okay to allow yourself to change and then change again, and then change again and then again…

Transformation is the very essence of life.

Things come and go.

They are created and destroyed.

We are intimately woven into the natural cycles of death and rebirth, of growth and decay, and of expansion and contraction.

Everything changes.

Change isn't a process that happens once and then everything is complete and perfect.

It's a process of continuous unfolding, as you transform, and come back to yourself time and again and again.

Each time you go through this process of change you experience a truer, more aligned, joyful expression of your deepest truth.

With this process of transformation remember that it's absolutely okay to change, and this included the ability to change your mind about something, about anything, about everything.

Just because you committed to one course of action, or you held a certain belief, doesn't mean you have to be rigid with it, it's okay to change your mind and your plans, and then change them again.

In this very moment, just pause, and take a breath. As you embrace change.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to give yourself permission to change.

What have you been putting off changing because you feel it's too soon since you last changed it, to change it again?

Check in with your intuition and your inner knowing - is the change aligned with your truth, does it feel expansive?

Are you wanting to make this change from a place of deep inner confidence or a place of fear?

If this change feels aligned for you, then it's time to make it happen.

Pause, and take a breath. As you make the changes you need.

"I allow myself to transform into the woman I'm meant to be"

Today you're being reminded that you are not broken.

Stop trying to fix yourself.

Instead of trying to fix yourself, learn to take care of yourself.

You're not broken.

You're a whole and divine holy being.

You don't need fixing you just need to take care of yourself physically, emotionally and spiritually.

You need to prioritise yourself, set strong boundaries and do the things that you know you need to do.

Taking care of yourself is more than just having a bubble bath or a spa day, it's making sure that you set healthy and supportive routines and habits for you, so that you create an environment in which you feel safe and nourished, so that you can thrive.

Self-care isn't always sexy, it's often mundane and routine, but these are the foundations of your experience of life.

In this very moment, just pause, and take a breath. As you prioritise your needs.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to stop thinking that you need fixing and reconnect with your inherent wholeness.

Remind yourself of who you really are, deep within you.

Then ask yourself what you need to stop doing, or start doing, to ensure that you are nourished and nurtured emotionally, physically and spiritually.

Then take that action.

Pause, and take a breath. As you remember your divine wholeness.

Today you're being reminded not to settle.

You're not here to settle.

You're not designed for mediocracy, half-hearted decisions, or things that make you feel less than…

Your spirit is not here to be dulled.

Your spirit wants to feel fully alive.

You're here for adventure, for joy, for passion, for laughter, friendship, deep connection and to play.

You're here to learn, make mistakes and try again.

You're here to be brave, to be bold and live with wild abandon.

You're here to express all of yourself, not just the pretty and acceptable parts, but all of you - your messy, colourful, changeable, deep feeling, wild, joyous creative self.

Anything less is a disservice to you.

It's a disservice to the world we live in.

We need all of you.

We need you and the magic that only you can weave in the world, and only you can weave it because no one else is you.

Show up and do so fully!

In this very moment, just pause, and take a breath. As you say a loud, proud and unapologetic 'yes' to all of yourself.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to embrace all of yourself.

Notice where you've been settling for less than you truly desire.

Ask yourself why you've been allowing your spirit to be dulled?

Then do what you have to, to make yourself feel alive once more.

What parts of yourself do you need to reclaim, to give voice to, to express?

What's waiting to be freed so that you can feel fulfilled and alive?

Pause, and take a breath. As you allow yourself to fully express your inner spirit.

Today's Affirmation:

"I say 'yes' to myself and the unique magic I bring to the world"

Today you're being reminded to choose you.

As you walk Your SHEro's Journey and choose the woman that you want to become over all other things, it will cost you friendships, comfort, identities and life as you know it.

Choose your journey and yourself anyway.

As you connect more deeply with your truth and how you want to show up in the world, you begin to notice the places, habits and possibly even people that no longer align with the life that you want to create.

You can no longer pretend that things are okay, when actually they're not.

As you get clearer on what's important to you, it becomes increasingly apparent what no longer is.

As your actions begin to reflect who you're becoming, it soon becomes clear which of the people in your life support, celebrate and want the best for you, and which do not.

Accept that as you change and grow there will be loss.

A loss of your old identity, a loss of old habits and behaviours, a loss of outdated patterns and beliefs. But this can also be a loss, or less time with, certain people too.

And whilst loss of any kind is uncomfortable, it's still important to choose You and who you're becoming.

In this very moment, pause, and take a breath. As you choose you.

Today's SHEro Action:

Today's SHEro action is to choose you.

Notice what no longer aligns with who you're becoming and decide what you need to do to stay committed to yourself.

Some things you may be able to stop doing, outsource, or do differently.

For other things you may need support to change.

Get clear on whether you need to limit your time with certain activities, behaviours or people, or remove them completely.

Do what you need to do to choose You and the woman you're becoming.

If it doesn't fully support you and your choices, if it doesn't add to your experience of life. If it no longer aligns with your values, do you really still want it around?

Pause, and take a breath. As you commit to the woman you're becoming.

"I choose me!"
