Today, I started an Insta account just for my artwork. I’d love it if you could follow me if my artwork interest you. 🙂

So, after a whole ophthalmologist, retina specialist, and optometrist rodeo, we kinda got somewhere. Bright side? Dr. Frank (the retina specialist, what a champ!) says I don't have any of the scary eye diseases, which is awesome. But there's always a chance it's something outside his area of expertise, you know, the whole "mystery illness" thing. ‍

What we do know, the weird eye things aren't White Dot Syndrome, just some old battle wounds from Lyme (thanks a bunch, buddies). ‍

This means no magic steroid solution. Instead, doc wants me to try stronger strength glasses first and see if my wonky vision chills out. If not, then it's off to Indy for another specialist.

Speaking of glasses, new ones (not covered by insurance, unfortunately) are gonna set me back $290+. This is on top of the ever-growing pile of bills and rent that's at $4,700 now.

Look, if my body wasn't a rebel with a cause (migraines, joint pain, the whole nightmare), I'd be back at work, rocking that paycheck. But between the wonky vision and the constant feeling like I got hit by a truck, work just isn't happening right now.

So, here's the deal. I'm in need of some sponsorship love.
Here's the breakdown:

New glasses (priority #1): $290+ (to hopefully stop my eyes from going full-on crazy)
Car payment & insurance: $717 (gotta keep this rolling SOUL on the road, must make it to my appointments)
Rent: $3,000 (because, this healing sanctuary is helping!)
Late fees (ugh): $983 (and climbing)

Open to any creative co-creation ideas and whatever donations you can throw my way. Every little bit helps!

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And so it is. Amen. Aho. Ashe.

Love,
Carla 🌹

P.S. Even with all this craziness, I gotta say, life is feeling lighter. Weird, huh? Maybe it's the acceptance? Or the copious amounts of meds? Or perhaps the garden? Could be all the above, plus Luna!
P.P.S Feel free to share this post if you're feeling generous!

I *almost* got scammed. This fake profile sent me a message inquiring about one of my art pieces. We had a pleasant text exchange where he wanted to buy 2 of my painted tiles and gave me an address in Oregon.

I gave him my PayPal information, but not my business one since I haven’t used in a long time.

This is when my spidey senses started to tingle.

I received an email saying $200 must be deposited to upgrade to a business account. He put the money in then I was supposed to, jokes on him, I don’t have $200.

By this time I’ve received 2 emails from PayPal so I decided to check the sending address. It was from a gmail account.

This is when I stopped all conversations and called PayPal only to find they were open yet.

I let him know I was waiting to speak with someone before we progress further.

He tried to call me but would hang up when I answered. I called back and he never answered, just sent.

I reported this to PayPal and will be submitting an official statement shortly.

I’m sharing with hopes of saving someone else from being scammed or wasting their time.

A few things that sparked the spidey senses:
1) “PayPal” asking for $200
2) Them not willing to cancel the charge.
3) The sent email from a gmail address.
4) Calling then hanging up and not answering my calls.
5) Using the word “kindly”
6) Them wanting things to happen quickly or urgently.
7) Asking if I was “trustworthy”.

Each one individually is odd but when they are combined, it’s clear especially when they close the account or block me after I tell them something isn’t right.

Here’s to staying vigilant! 🕵️👀💥

Happy Sunday.

When I started meditating many moons ago, back in the 90’s, I had no idea that it would help me through some of the darkest periods of my life.

After my sit this morning, I checked to see if my EBT card balance increased, it has not.

You see, last month there was a paperwork issue and they closed my account.

After many visits & phone calls the issue was resolved and they opened my account again.

However, because it takes 8 people to do one task, the person who’s responsible for adding the funds haven’t got to my account yet.

It’s only $250 ish a month, but it’s the only way I buy food. Due to my sensitivities, food pantries don’t have the type of food I require.

Given my parasympathetic nervous system isn’t functioning properly, my body doesn’t relax & digest the way it’s supposed to. (Among other things it controls)

This causes my fight & flight system to stay activated anytime there’s a trigger.

Not having the ability to buy food is definitely a trigger as is dealing with the poorly designed government agency.

My body would typically respond with migraines, vomiting, muscle pain & weakness, however, because of my meditation practice, my body isn’t shutting down.

I have some weakness and discomfort but there is also peace in my heart and mind.

Anger, sadness, frustration runs through my mind & body but they aren’t setting up shop. Which is huge!

My focus is on what I can control and remembering I’m doing the best I can in this challenging situation.

I return to my breath, 4 sec inhalation, hold for 5 seconds, exhale for 8 seconds.

I typically do box breathing 4x4x4x4 but I’ve noticed when I hold slightly longer than the inhale and exhale longer than both my body calms down easier & faster.

As I body scan, I notice where tension resides and bring my love there.

Tears come and go as I explore my inner terrain with a rhythm matching my breathing.

Dark thoughts surface and fade simultaneously.

The more I stay focused on my body, the lighter & happier I become.

I give thanks & gratitude to all my past teachers & younger self for the dedication to teach me the value of meditation.

As we head into a 3-day holiday weekend for Labor Day , I have one request, Be Kind To Yourself.

❤️ Be kind in your thoughts; you deserve to be appreciated and loved.

🍉 Be kind to your body; feed it nourishing foods & beverages.

🎨 Be kind to your soul; make choices that match your core values.

And most of all, give yourself permission to let all tension melt away allowing you to rest & have fun in ways that feed your spirit.

I give thanks to the labor movement for helping create this holiday and of course President Cleveland for signing it into law in 1894. 🙏

It came on the heels of much protest against poor working conditions and low paying jobs.

Many death occurred in the riots but change DID happen.

Which brings me to offering you something to ponder during your 3-day weekend.

Are you being kind to yourself with your choice of employment?

Where do you need to set clearer boundaries in your life to add more kindness?

What actions can you take to make that happen?

Here’s to honoring & protecting yourself because YOU MATTER!

❤️🙏🎉🍉🏄‍♂️🦄💖✨🌈🦋

According to astrology, we are going to be changing a certain narrative in our life. It can play out in a job, relationships, where you’re living, beliefs... we’ll get a sense that something doesn’t feel right.

From a selfish perspective, I hope this will wipe out all fears people have of black people and the senseless murders by police come to an end. It’s an epidemic that needs a cure.
🛑STOP KILLING BLACK PEOPLE. 🛑

May this energy also wipe out homophobia & transphobia. 🛑STOP KILLING GAY & TRANS PEOPLE. 🛑

The Aquarian Age is fast approaching bringing with it an opportunity for the ultimate humanitarian energy we have ever felt. ✨💞✨

When we are living in fear life appears very small because our brain looks for safety and that’s all. It’s primarily focus is survival.

When we can be with each other and feel safe & secure not only will our collective health improve but our creativity will expand. Just think of the magic that can be co-created on earth when we tap into that place of unlimited possibilities.

Here’s how you can help raise the collective consciousness.

Where can you let go of unwarranted fears?

What beliefs have created fear in your life thus prevented you to expand?

Perhaps they were needed in the past and maybe saved your life. Ask yourself, do these beliefs help anyone at this time?

Often beliefs can be a form of addiction. Recycling a narrative or behavior not out of choice but instead out of habit or a pattern.

Becoming self aware is the fastest way for growth and change in your life thus helping the collective consciousness.

Throw on the Sherlock Holmes hat and go digging in your thoughts & beliefs to see what’s old & outdated.

May you be a positive force of change in your life and thus leading the way for others.

🙏✨💞💫💥💫💞✨🙏

By now we are pretty used to intense energy, right? Well, that’s a beautiful thing because we are back in ECLIPSE SEASON. 💥🌕💥

It’s a time of great change and awarenesses.

A time where out of the blue you decided to sell all your belongings and move to a place you just leaned about.

A time where you wake up from the slumber in certain areas of your life and say, NO MORE.

A time where you start to feel and embrace that ANYTHING is possible and the Universe starts to show you the way.

2020 has been a year of discernment.

Where do you want to put your energy?

Who do you want in your inner circle?

Who do you want to work with?

What do you want to create? And with whom?

It feels as if we are in a slight lull before we get shot out of the cannon into 2021. And let me tell you this, get your focus clear and release anything that’s not in alignment because you don’t need anything slowing you down.

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO CALL FORTH/ MANIFEST/CREATE IN 2021?

Feel into that energy.
Live from the place as if it’s already here because it is.
Make decisions from this energy.

Who are you being?
Is this a match to who you want to be?

AND be sure to sleep. rest. take long baths. go for nature walks. remove yourself from drama. focus on your breathing. eat nourishing foods. do whatever it takes to nurture your nervous system.

When your mind & body are calm you can feel the guidance coming through.

What does your heaven on earth look like?

♥️ Attention ♥️ Coaches, Artists, Healers, and Writers who have find it SO HARD to create content sitting alone in front of a blank screen, canvas, or page.

This has to be one of the most infuriating experiences because we have SO MUCH to share and yet our minds go blank when it’s time to produce. Or the laundry calls to us or the kids or pets.

I feel ya! And am the same way. 🤷🏽‍♀️

So I decided to solve our problems. 💫

I’m creating a 90-day mastermind to help YOU get your MAGIC out into the world.

We will meet once a week for 2 hours. This will be a time when you ACTUALLY CREATE!

We will have a short share at the beginning to hear what people are struggling with and what they want to create.

Then I will start us off with a meditation to help YOU channel what’s begging to be expressed. As I’m doing this healing will automatically happen and you’ll be lifted up and out of the fog. 🧘🏽‍♂️

Then we’ll get to work. 🎉💃🏽🎨📜

About 60 - 90 min later we’ll have time to discuss and get feedback from the group, if you desire.

I will even offer healing & channeling for you to get you going because it is through action where clarity arises.

This will begin the first week of November.

If this sounds like a HEAVEN YES! Then either comment below or send me a message and we’ll set up a time to talk.

I am being VERY selective who gets in this group.

This one is for people who KNOW they want and are ready to produce but feel stuck.

If you are still struggling in a lot of fear and confusion then this isn’t for you. But GOOD NEWS! I’ll be having another 90-day mastermind starting the first week in November JUST for you. Stay-tuned...

LETS ROCK THE REST OF 2020 and SOAR INTO 2021! 💥♥️✨🎉🧘🏽‍♂️🧹

There is A LOT of energy in the stars right now. It's the most intense week of the year and that's saying a lot. Think Jackson Po***ck paintings. It looks like chaos but there is actually fractal energy of divinity.

Here are the best suggestions I have for you... don't sit back and wait or ignore or avoid things that are hard for you. This is the week of all weeks to make choices!
But HOW do you make choices when you don't know what to do? Here's how... WHAT IGNITES PASSION, FIRE, HARMONY into your life?

Don't put your mental, physical, or psychic energy into anything that brings you down or stunts your passion.
You can reidentify who you are and who you be. Who are you being right now? Is it matching what you want to call forth in your life?

This is also a time for YOU to make the decisions in YOUR life. DON'T let others decide or manipulate or persuade you to go AGAINST your TRUTH.

Trust your intuition. Trust your heart. Trust your path.

Remember to play the long game in your personal life and in business. ❤️

There is a disruption with our lives right now and it can be really easy to be overwhelmed and feel scared and uncertain about the future.

Feel al the feels! You’re human. It’s okay. And if anyone tells you otherwise, cut them out of your life because they could be gaslighting you and they definitely don’t deserve to take up any of your precious mental, physical, or emotional energy.

Now more than ever is a time for discernment.

Who gets access to you?
Who do you allow to support you?
Who do you desire to support?
Where would you like to focus your thoughts?

Remember, the chi (energy) flows where the mind goes.

Feel the feels then move the body.

Take some action in your life that will feel amazing to you.

This could be building a garden or something as simple as prepping food to cook.

Perhaps you want to write poetry or paint your bedroom.

Maybe it’s calling someone who’s been on your mind and you’re letting fear stop you from reaching out.

Maybe you create a website or start a meditation practice.

The point is to do something where you feel in control and happy when it’s over.

Here’s the cool thing about feeling the feels. When we surrender and create space for any uncomfortable feelings they tend to dissolve as long as we recognize that we ARE NOT our feelings.

They can ebb & flow like water splashing against a boat.

We see them and feel them and perhaps smell them and hear them, too.

Explore their sensations.

As you do this you become the observer and in that moment you’re no longer being taken down by them.

Now if you have sever trauma I recommend working with someone who’s trained in navigating these feelings if you’re overloaded.

We all need support! It’s okay to reach out and ask.

Playing the long game requires us to self care in these moments and find a way to keep moving in spite of the chaos that we may be seeing or experiencing. And knowing when it’s okay to curl up in a ball and cry to release.

Think about a labyrinth, like the photo that is attached to this post. It’s not a maze. There’s nothing to figure out. All you’re doing is taking one step at a time and observing. You can’t get it wrong. There’s only one way in and one way out.

Take a deep breath and relax into the now.

I know a lot of empaths like myself are having panic attacks and weird body sensations because we’re picking up the collective energy (and healing the world through our bodies).

It’s time to learn to recognize what is yours and someone else’s and develop the ability to clear and transmute these energies. Be the alchemist.

Gather the tools you need to help you stay in your body and set yourself up for success.

If you’d like support in discerning energy, let me know. I’m here to help.

May you have magical day and nighttime dreams and feel energized and happy. ❤️💥✨🙏🎶🦋🌺🍄🌻

There are so many possibilities right now. In times up upheaval and change, you have the ability to create a business that can help so many people in ways they may not know they need.

What are some of your ideas?
What do you see as possibilities right now?
What service or product would you love to put out into the world if you knew you would succeed?

Put on your creative hat and dream big! New moon energy is full of planting seeds and we are embarking on crazy, beyond-this-world times. So don't let your perception of reality to slow you down. 💗

In my meditation this morning I got that we all need a big hug from someone or something that feels like sunshine and homemade cookies. That feeling when you’re being embraced the world fades away and the only thing you are experiencing is the love being radiated into every cell of your being.

If you can, take a few moments and think of Mother Mary, a grandparent or parent, a lover or friend, an imaginary person you’ve yet to meet. It’s not important who your visualizing as long as you can feel the love of the Universe streaming in.

Give yourself the gift of receiving. In this moment all you have to do is allow. Allow the body to feel supported, nurtured, protected, loved, cared for, and accepted.

Give your body permission to let go of all tension, fear, protection, pushing through and in this moment collapse into Divine Love.

Scan your body from head to toe. Going slowly and noticing what’s happening. As your consciousness makes its rounds, give sweetness to every part of your body. Thanking it for being here. Honoring every inch, every organ, every hair, every cell. In this moment see if you can feel gratitude for your human body, even if you want it to look differently. Just for a moment, surrender to the perfection of YOU.

Allow the mixture of your love and the love of what you visualized at the start to mix together like beautiful harmonic sounds. Allowing them to harmonize your mind, body, a soul.

Feel your body radiating and the peace that taking over. Allow it. Surrender a little bit more. There is nothing else to focus on in this moment. All that is here is your breath and the symphony of Divine healing love.

Sit with this as often and as long as you desire. This is ever present and you can access it any moment of the day.

Allow this to be your natural state. Your new set point.

Remember, the body follows the mind and the mind follows the breath.

So breath this love, this peace, this set point deeply into your lungs.

You are always in control of your nervous system. You are always in control. You are always in control.

Know this deeply. Take another deep breath. Find your peace and return here often.

YOU GOT THIS! ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️

You are deeply loved, cared for, and nurtured.

May you feel peace, harmony, and ease.
And so it is.
Amen. Aho. Ashe.
This is done. This is done. This is done.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
