Happy new month of our new year of The Power of Three! I feel a great sense of accomplishment. I practiced most of what was on my vision page for January. I missed a few things. But I'm okay and I'm on my way.
January's focus for me was "Creating" - to bring into being. To cause to exist.
What I did not accomplish *create* is:
SparkPeople. I did (re)sign up but haven't made use of the site.
I didn't get music downloaded on to an ipod for working out. I did make wonderful use of Pandora for working out and had some really fun workouts.. plus I started using peaceful music to play as 'white noise' in my office. It has made a relaxing difference.
I didn't write near as much as I would have liked to. I did write down a memorable dream and some really good flash cards that I use during meditation.
My quote on my vision page was "Remember to write, write to remember." And you know what....writing those cards has been a great help. It does help me to remember to command great things for my life. They remind me of who I am and what I can have.
I did not read a book from cover to cover as I had intended. But I chewed on several different books that brought me great insight and comfort. Books included: Be here Now. The One Command. The Three Keys to Self-Empowerment. These are all basically cookbooks for self-empowerment. Not meant to be whizzed through cover to cover.
So girls, this is a fresh start! Let's focus on what we DID accomplish in January! ..not what we didn't accomplish. Please do tell what you did accomplish/create in your lives in January.
What I created was....
I went from 122pds to 208.6.
I did go to the gym everyday before or after work.
I meditated every morning. I took up meditation class on Mondays and Wednesdays. -Two different types.
I kicked the diet soda habit. I believe I had a total of 5 cans since I started, rather than 3 a day.
I did some mindful eating where I only focused on my food. The sight, smell, taste, feel and how it sounds. By using all my senses I was satified more with less food. ohhh, that is a wonderful concept that I am learning more about...being satisfied more with less-not just food. I am satisfied more with less just by being mindful of what is around me. I am a witness to life at the moment and it does bring joy and peace instantly.
I did drink green. I drank chlorophyl water every morning.
I did text Treven...almost every day.....AND he texted me back!!!!!!One small step for mother/son relationship.....one giant hug for my heart.
What was the best thing about January 2012? It is that I feel closer to my daughters. We have grown closer as women and friends. Relationship- That is the heart and soul of a beautiful life. And I thank you for the influence that you have had on me to be a better person, to be a stronger woman. You both have contributed to that.
Joelle, you are a great example of the power of inner peace no matter how tumultuous the wind or rain is around you.
Shanna, you are the epidomony of strength within yourself. You do not grovel with a man if it goes against the peace within you. That is strength. You set an example for me when you were willing to forfiet New York City so that I would not grovel with David.
grov·el (grvl, grv-)
1. To behave in a servile or demeaning manner; cringe.
2. To lie or creep in a prostrate position, as in subservience or humility.
3. To give oneself over to base pleasures: "Have we not groveled here long enough, eating and drinking like mere brutes?" (Walt Whitman).
Shanna and you proved yourself again with Brandon.
Both of my beautiful daughters have amazing strenth. I need you both in my life. It makes me a better person just having your influence.
In the words of Miley...I'm still good. We are still good! We are still the Power of Three!
Now...Turn the page. Time for a new beginning. This month my focus word is IMAGINE.
There is a quote on my page:
"Go confidently in the direction of your deams. Live the life you have imagined."
Every DAY is a new beginning to create what you imagine.
So creating Woman..Creative Power of Three....What shall it be?
What do you so desire to create today?
Imagine it, speak it....and so it shall be. You shall make it exist!
