Good morning, Toronto! Time to practice!

It was my birthday yesterday and I am blown away by how many people reached out via text, phone, email, social media, etc. to wish me well. Literal hundreds 🥰

At this point in my life I only want to be around people who love me for me - warts and all. I used to waste sooooo much time trying to be liked by everyone I met. It’s such a waste of time and energy.

Focus on the people who love you.

Focus on this who see the good in you always.

Focus on those who reach out on a random night simply because you popped into their head.

Focus on the ones who stand up for you when things go sideways.

THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO MATTER.

THANK YOU to each and every one of you who took the time yesterday to make me smile 🥰

The party continues this morning at yoga! Wanna join?

Good morning, Toronto! Time to practice!

I don’t know about you, but I am notorious for buying “information” books and leaving them sitting unopened. Or buying online courses and FORGETTING about them.

Sound familiar? No? Just me?

It usually happens when I’m feeling ungrounded. Not sure of what my next steps are. Those poor books sometimes sit for years until they’re finally cracked open! And the courses? I have a folder on my computer of “to be done” and “done” courses… guess which one is bigger?

You know what always works? Sitting with myself quietly and asking questions. The answers don’t always come immediately but they definitely come.

We already know the answers. We just need to ask ourselves the right questions.

Maybe start with yoga!

Good morning, Toronto! Time to practice!

I had a horrible nights sleep last night. I went to bed super early. Turned off all devices, had calming tea, read my book… all the things I normally do before bed. But after I turned off the lights, I tossed and turned for 3hrs before finally falling into a fitful sleep.

I woke up this morning feeling exhausted. The first thing I did was to mentally berate myself for not doing enough yesterday.

“I should have gone for a walk before bed. That would have saved me.”

“I shouldn’t have watched that second episode.”

“I should have had more water.”

The dreaded “should”…

Would those things have helped? Probably.

Can I change the past? No.

Can I be more mindful moving forward? Yes.

Even though I do try, I’m not always going to make the best choices. But I can start over and make better choices today.

I’m gonna start with yoga. How about you?

This quote spoke to me.

In my experience, people are in one of two camps when going through a period of transition.

1. You reach out to everyone and their brother for advice. You read books on empowerment. You follow “coaches” online and buy their courses (without ever doing them), and talk about it (whatever IT is) ALL THE TIME.

2. You sit with yourself, get quiet, and listen.

Both approaches can work.

But one of them shows you that you don’t trust yourself.

Why?

“The one I am becoming will catch me.”

Trust yourself. Start with yoga!

Mercury is back in retrograde until August 11. And dang! Is the energy strong!?!

Retrogrades are times to pause. Reflect. To pay closer attention to what needs to be released.

They can be times of change but the change is slow. Let it be.

Don’t push. Don’t force. Let the change happen incrementally so that it sticks.

Don’t push! But don’t wait.

As you start to understand what needs to be released, what needs to change, slowly start to put that into action.

Make a plan. Plant the seeds. Slowly start to make moves.

It will be frustrating and sometimes feel like you’re pushing a pull door… but keep going!

Slowly slowly… all is coming.

Start with yoga!

Good morning, Toronto! Time to practice!

Over the last few months I’ve been taking a deep dive into my business. What works. What doesn’t work. Where I need to level up. Where I need to trim down.

During last nights deep dive I engaged to create a new structure for marketing, mindset, and communication.

I was as detailed as I could be in the prompt so that the output was as focused on MY business as possible.

I can’t lie. What ChatGPT came up with was pretty incredible, even creating a basic excel CRM for tracking.

But what stood out most was this sentence at the end of the list of “to do’s”.

“You’re not starting over, Emma — you’re simply realigning with your next level.”

Sometimes change happens faster than expected. But it’s here. And I’ve had to learn the hard way that the only person coming to save me is ME. And, apparently, my new bestie ChatGPT.

Oh, and more yoga. Wanna come?

Good morning, Toronto!

Time to practice! Tracy is teaching Led Primary today so I can grab some family time with my sisters and nieces. Grateful ☺️

This is a gentle reminder to all of us. I was having a conversation yesterday with a friend over coffee about focus.

What we focus on grows.

So whether that be lack or abundance. Love or indifference. Good or bad things. Whatever you focus on becomes dominant.

Focus on the ABUNDANCE that surrounds you.

Focus on LOVE.

Focus on the GOOD stuff.

I don’t know about you, but that’s what I want in my life.

Good morning, Toronto! Time to practice!

Tracy is teaching

I’ve snuck outta town with a few friends to unwind and connect. Connect with them. Connect with myself. Connect with nature.

This morning, the world is quiet except for the snoring of the dogs and the singing of birds. It’s glorious!

Taking time away, even a few days, is so healing. And so necessary.

We can work ourselves so hard, especially those of us who are self employed!

We work crazy “off” hours. Driven by hustle culture to “keep grinding”. But who does that serve, really?

Taking the time to step back, press pause, and breathe freely. Ignoring the ping of the email. Letting that Monday morning deadline be just that. A MONDAY deadline… not now! And allowing yourself to be present… it’s a gift you can give yourself whenever YOU can.

And so I am.

See you Monday!

Good morning, Toronto! Time to practice!

Have you ever noticed that when you change you mind about how you feel about something or how you view something, everything changes? The “thing” didn’t change. YOU did. By changing your belief.

Our minds are powerful things. They dictate how we see the world. How we live. How we love.

Neuroscience says most of our beliefs are formed between the ages of 0-12yrs.

Beliefs are not facts.

“A belief is based on what you have been told and what you personally hold as true. A belief doesn’t need to be supported with factual evidence in order for it to exist and be powerful.”

And here’s the fun part. A belief can be changed.

How?

By asking yourself WHY? “Why do I believe this? What does this serve? Does it help me? Or does it serve others?” Ask yourself as many questions as you can.

Don’t let dogma stop you.

Change your mind and change your world. Maybe start with yoga.

Good morning, Toronto! Time to practice!

Reminder: don’t give up.

Even when it’s hard. Even when it feels pointless. Even when you feel like you’ve already lost your way… don’t give up.

Sometimes it’s about pressing pause, finding centre, and feeling your way forward in the dark. Slowing down. Paying attention. Looking for patterns…

Trusting the process.

Maybe start with yoga.

Good morning, Toronto! Time to practice!

My mantra lately…

Our mind is a powerful thing and it does exactly what we tell it to do. This is how belief works.

So tell it to believe the good. Tell it to believe you can do this. You ARE doing this! WE ARE DOING THIS.

Let’s go!
