✨ One of the best parts of running my own business is the freedom to weave my heart, passion, and healing practices into every session.

“Be like a tree and let the dead leaves drop.” — Rumi

Rumi reminds us to stay present by releasing what no longer serves us.
• Mentally: Holding onto the past clutters the mind, creating stress and anxiety. Letting go allows for mental clarity and focus.
• Emotionally: Releasing old wounds helps us experience emotions in the present rather than being trapped in past pain. It fosters peace and emotional resilience.
• Spiritually: Being present deepens our connection with ourselves and the universe. It opens space for growth, intuition, and inner wisdom.

By embracing the present moment, we free ourselves from unnecessary burdens and create space for renewal and joy.

Life is filled with obstacles that can impede our progress, but in order to achieve success and happiness, we must conquer these challenges. Similar to a mountaineer facing treacherous terrain and adverse weather conditions, we must persevere and reach new heights. In our own lives, we may come across seemingly insurmountable challenges, but by embracing them, we can attain greatness and happiness. J.K. Rowling's story serves as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, we can achieve remarkable things. So, when confronted with a challenge, view it as an opportunity for growth and triumph.
