You can change your whole life with a change in perspective. Sometimes all we need is a little motivation to help guide us to look at things differently. I once heard a Mom describe her daily chores as scared work. That one moment in time completely changed the way I see my day and the tasks that I do. You see we are all here doing our scared work. It is not the world’s opinion of what we do that matters, it is ours that does!
Watch this video for some motivation to see things differently! If you put loving energy into what you do, you experience your day in a whole new way. “Change your perspective and you change your reality.” ~ Mr. Prophet

The Holidays can really bring out the best and worst in us. It is a time of gatherings and holiday parties. Have you ever struggled with a personality conflict and wondered how you can deal with it as peacefully as possible? If you’re alive them I’m sure you’ve experienced it a few times. During an episode of Super Soul Sunday with Oprah and Eckhart Tolle I had a big Aha moment. I learned a way to deal with personality conflicts that I could use in my day to day life, including the sometimes stressful interactions with my children.

The American way is to work hard, work long hours and take little vacation, but are we really happy? All around us we see evidence of the health consequences of overworking. As a country, we’re stressed out and full of anxiety. Our bodies are reflecting our emotional well-being.
It is time to bring balance and joy back into our lives. It is our divine right to enjoy our time on earth, but only we can make that happen. Doing work that you are passionate about is vital, and so is down time, and making memories with the ones we love. Taking time off gives us the opportunity to be fully present and enjoy life in a way that work cannot provide.
We’ve taught ourselves that working all the time is the only way to get ahead, but what if we’re chasing the wrong dream and our happiness is sacrificed? Thank you for watching, friends! I truly appreciate your presence and support :-)
Let’s keep the discussion going in the comments below. What is your view on time off? Is it essential to your happiness? Are you overworked? Do you feel guilty about taking time off?
I look forward to hearing your thoughts!
With love & gratitude, Wendy Irene
Have you ever asked yourself how do I make the most of my life? What can I do to live life to the fullest? We all know how quickly time passes by, but how you treasure that time is what counts.
Each and every day opportunities for joy knock on the door to our hearts. Will you open the door, or keep it closed? Will you allow joy in, or will you let it pass you by? The more joy you let in, the more you get out of life. The greatest thing about joy is when you experience it, you give it. When you have it, you share it. Joy and love are one.
Watch the video and get inspired to open your heart to joy. There are countless opportunities every day to experience joy. How many will you let in? How much joy will you spread?
Thank you for the joy you give me by joining me and allowing the messages of love into your day.
With love & gratitude, Wendy Irene
What do you feel is lacking in your life? Is it keeping you from being happy? Do you trust there is enough love and abundance for everyone, or do you cling tight to things fearing there is not enough?
Our greatest mistake is the belief that we are lacking. Our beliefs are what drive our actions and are the force behind what we create in our lives. When we believe in or fear lack we create more of it. Scarcity thinking drives negativity in the world, and causes sadness within.
Depression often arrives from the feeling of lack. That we do not have enough, we are lacking something we need to be happy, or that who we are is not enough. It is not true. None of it is true.
The truth is you already have everything. You already are everything.
Watch the video to begin the process of healing. What areas do you feel are lacking in your life? How can you change your perception of them?
“If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.” ~ William Blake

Do you ever wonder how you can be a better parent? Do you want to improve your relationship with your spouse, family or friends? Do you get down on yourself? Do you find forgiveness difficult?
The first step in being a better parent, spouse, or friend is to treat yourself with love and kindness. It is really easy to be hard on ourselves, and unforgiving, but each one of us deserves our love and forgiveness. In my own life, I find the kinder I am to myself, the kinder I am to those around me. Being loving and forgiving with those I love, means being loving and forgiving with myself.
The best way to forgive is to move forward. To allow yourself the freedom to keep flowing and not stay stuck in errors or mistakes. Forgive and love yourself daily. We can create health in our bodies by loving and appreciating who we are, accepting and being grateful for exactly where we are in life. Within you is all the love that you need. You are not lacking love. The greatest truth is there is no void to be filled.
While you watch the video allow your heart to open up and glow with light and self-love.

Why? What is the solution? How many times have you found yourself wondering why it is we know so little about our bodies, the world around us, and our universe? Not knowing the answers is part of the great design. It allows us infinite possibilities to create. Not knowing is a gift. Part of being enlightened is becoming comfortable and at peace with the unknown. Our minds love an answer, a solution to everything, a way to categorize our lives, but the truth is we are so much more. We can spend our whole lives testing out, hypothesizing and trying to find a finite answer to everything, or we can accept the mystery and the infinite and use it to create anything we want each and every day. The answers are not there because we are creating them. We are creating each and every moment of our lives. We are so much more powerful than we realize. Our thoughts create reality, and because all the answers don’t exist, you can create anything you want. "When I am willing to step into the realm of uncertainty and ambiguity, I open myself up to infinite possibilities." ~ Anita MoorjaniWatch this video and become open to your infinite possibilities to create! Thank you for watching!
Take the first step in creating your day by asking yourself –What is it that I want to create today? What do I want to create in the world?
I’d love to hear your thoughts!

"A man's life is what his thoughts make of it." ~ Marcus Aurelius
Throughout the day thoughts pass through our head. Some of these thoughts are not productive, or uninspired. These are the thoughts of worry or anxiety. As people we are powerful beings of love. For that reason, we are given the choice to let go of the thoughts that do not serve us. We have the ability to hear the thought, feel its ramification in our body, and allow it to roll on through. Our greatest gift is that we are not our thoughts, we are so much more.
"I am not what I think. I am thinking what I think." ~ Eric Butterworth
This week my family is moving. We bought a house and are super excited about it. The couple of weeks before the move many, many thoughts of anxiety about everything I needed to pack, and everything that needed to get done ran through my head. Although I was not able to alleviate all the stress I felt from moving, I practiced allowing the worrisome thoughts to roll on through the best that I knew how. It has made a big difference in how I’ve experienced the moving process so far.
My husband and I have moved many times since getting married 9.5 years ago. I think our average is once every 2 years. We never planned on moving so much, it’s just the way things worked out. I’ve done the packing up the house thing many times before, and each time as our family grows so does the packing job.
I remember vividly the last time we moved when we were going from Canada to the US, and the immense stress I felt. Everything had to be packed to be in a truck for days and go across the border. My kids were 2 years younger which made things harder, but the biggest difference was at the time I was unaware of how much control I actually had over my state of well-being. The ability to be in charge of how we allow things affect us is a true gift from the universe.
When feeling stressed this time around I now know to stop and breathe. I know that I can either let the thought of anxiety pause in my mind, allowing myself to get tangled up in it for any length of time, or I can recognize it as crazy, not act on it and let it pass right on through. At the end of the day I know we are so blessed to be alive, to be here together, and the more I focus on that, the more I understand in my heart that most things really don’t matter, and they aren’t worth the time and energy worrying about them. Doing that only harms our body, and makes time pass by faster. Time slows down when we experience joy. We are meant to enjoy our lives. Often we make things that are simple extremely complicated, but we can always choose to return to our natural state of peace and love. When we recognize we are not in our true state of being, we can let go of the craziness, and see the beauty around us. Don’t you want to look at the calendar of your life and see lots of checks for happy days? Nothing really matters but love. The more we focus on peace and love, the more we see of it in our day to day lives.
“All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.” ~ Buddha
You are a being of peace and love, and I wish you a joy filled day.
With love & gratitude, Wendy Irene
