I always loved taking pictures- and did for 35 years - as a profession. Now, I use my cell - it still is a joy to look back though years on my cell phone - 100,000 + photos that sit in there - and with IG since 2011 when they began - my how things have changed 📸✨​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

A favorite book of mine: “A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles.” by Marianne Williamson. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Marianne, says a miracle is a shift in perception from fear to love. She reveals how to open your heart and embrace the path you're meant to take in life." Definitely a great read for understanding relationships.

Ten years ago, I was lucky to attend many of her Monday night lectures in LA and watch her in action guiding others to see themselves in a new light. Miraculous. 💫

A belief is just a thought, thought over and over until it becomes a belief. 🤍​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Are your thoughts serving serving you? You can change your thoughts to more encouraging kind optimistic thoughts - which creates a new feeling in the body- positively changing the chemistry in your body. Think it yet more importantly FEEL it - FEEL IT over and over until the new belief becomes an automatic part of your behavior - and show up in you reality. 👏🏽​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Why feel insignificant - when you can feel significant. Thinking and feeling the desired outcome enables you to achieve the desired outcome. It's dreaming your new beliefs into reality. ✨💫​​​​​​​​

Quiet down your mind and tap into your potential. 🧘🏼‍♀️​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
This may sound easy yet, it's the survival mind vs the performance mind. We are hardwired for survival and it can seem hard to shut out ruminating thoughts, mental chatter, unwanted worries and doubts and concerns - pulling you away from the quiet mind - which is so capable of seeing from a broader perspective and producing effective solutions. ✨​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Free yourself from your survival mind - experience hypnosis - and learn to meet challenges with ease. focus and direction. 🌱 ​​​​​​​​

Thanks to my husband, museums and history highlights brought a richness to our Southwest travels. After visiting the Nambe Trading Post, north of Sante Fe and inspired by the incredible and accurate displays of Western movie costumes, created by Cathy Smith, we caught up on all the western movies we had never seen and with a new perspective. 💫

When famous painter Pablo Picasso said this, he critiqued the progressive stripping of creativity and freedom from a person's life as they grow up.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
And "Every child is an artist until he's told he's not an artist". John Lennon.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Sometimes I paint and think its so primitive - until I stop thinking and feel like an artist. 🎨👩‍🎨​​​​​​​​
