Sweetgrass, cedar & sage smudgestick, used in a private sacred prayer ceremony on National Aboriginal Day for Zohrab and I (what an honour)
I painted my toes in c-c-courage. (From the Wizard of Ooh Ahs collection) A sparkly purple that pops. It made me so happy I just wanted to share that with you. I wanted to open up our dialogue with something purple; you know, to set the tone.
I looked at my vision board yesterday, the one that I created last summer with a group of women we had gathered together in the spa. It made me happy to see the images on there, it brought back a certain feeling of hopefulness I had at that time as I carefully cut out (or ripped without care the odd time) the images from books, magazines, brochures. I then glued them on at random, and wrote phrases or words that meant something to me. What is truly remarkable though is that when you set your intention, things happen. Thoughts, when thought, actually become things. It is true. 99% of the images I put on there, including travel, new furniture, and being in better shape...ahem...it has all manifested.
I'm creating an intention list for fall. I plan to do one for each season. Why don't you do one too? I'm sharing a portion of mine here with you today;
- spend more time with my beloved parents, spouse, and children
- host a family dinner at least two times
- a weekend away with the family
- trip to an exotic far off destination
- read at least six books (doesn't sound like much? I'm so busy if I finish one book every two weeks I'm very fortunate....)
- go ephemera hunting in antique shops
- eat organically whenever possible
- walk more in nature
- get a funky fall hat & these boots (don't you just love em!)
- wear flowers in my hair
- try that copper and dark ruby tortoiseshell manicure
- journal every single day before bed (keep that book on my nightstand with a pen at the ready)
- be fully present at all times
- plan my wedding (simple, elegant, intimate, meaningful, beautiful)
What is on your list for fall? (Remember, it is "me" focused. You can heal the world with another list.)
