The New Moon is in Leo ♌  Whether you follow the moon phases or not, the New Moon is a great time for new beginnings.
Use the New Moon as a time to let go of what no longer serves you and check in with your heart
- What do you most desire now?
Connect with yourself; Breath work, meditation, journalling or light a candle and bask in its glow.

Don't forget gratitude for all that you have 🙏
And give yourself some space now to manifest, create and experience joy ❤

How will you celebrate the New Moon?

I've had a running theme lately of people having no idea what self compassion is, let alone how to do it.  And my heart hurts for the people who do not know how to be kind to themselves.

Self compassion starts before self esteem or even self care yet they can all rise and fall together.

Think of seeing a stranger fall down.  You help them up.  You may not like their clothes, their smell, the reason they fell down; You simply saw a human in suffering and showed compassion.

Now turn that inwards.  You don't have to love everything about yourself but you do not have to be unkind.  You can be a human who is suffering and accept that.  Put your hand over your heart and allow yourself to just be human, have compassion towards yourself for being human.  Give yourself permission to just be in this moment, no judgment 🙏
DM if you need more tips on self compassion.

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

"Walk as though you are kissing the Earth with your feet."

Bring attention and intention to all you do 🙏

I wanted to caption this with something like 'dare to be different' or 'be unique'...

Instead, I decided on...

💛 'Be Your Best Self!' 💛

Because as humans we have a hard enough time knowing and loving who we are, nevermind trying to be something in comparison to others.

So I invite everyone today to see themselves for who they are AND appreciate themselves for it. 
We all have flaws & imperfections and we all have strengths & positive attributes. 

❤ Let's focus on just being who we are and loving it! Because whether we fit in or stand out, we are worth it! ❤

The person nearest you, is usually you ❤

Help yourself!
Support yourself!
Love yourself!

Those who have been known to the world in helping others, started with helping themselves.  And not in a selfish way - in a 'put your own oxygen mask on first' way.

You can not fill from an empty cup. 

So what do you need today?  What do you need to get through the day, to help others get through the day, to be truly present in this moment? 
What do you need to do to enjoy the now?
To inspire others to enjoy the now?
We only have this moment...and then we have regrets of the past and worries for the future.

Help the person nearest to you enjoy THIS moment...cuz in a moment it will be a memory, and that memory is up to you. 🙏

I am getting these out, slowly but surely! I am not a slave to social media and forget it more often than not 🙂
I love humanity & connection, which these days seems so based on it, so I am making it something I do, just not every day.

Nurture yourselves and remember, you deserve to be supported!

Hope everyone in Abbotsford enjoyed the beautiful sunshine 🌞 yesterday!  I did through one of my office windows 😏😂
Made sure I got the kiddo outside to the playground too...and so glad I did,  it is back to gray skies and rain 🌧 today.

A reminder to enjoy the moment, the day, the people you love 🙏  may not be here tomorrow.

Those who say sunshine brings happiness have never danced in the rain. 
❤Enjoy, whatever the weather, with those you care about most❤
