These two feathers randomly fell from the sky right in-front of me this week within an hour apart! Ironic considering all the decisions and changes I've been making in my life as of late! My angels are watching over me! (Read more below)
"Although our Angels are always near us, looking over us and protecting us, we very rarely know that they are there. Sometimes, our Angels will send us small signs and signals to let us know that they are near, and will always be there to love and support us. These signs can be anything from a subtle flash of light, a rainbow on a gloomy day, or even an unexpected, sudden feeling of love and warmth within you.
One of the ultimate signs your Angels are with you is finding a feather. Coming across a feather in your path, or finding a feather in an unexpected place is thought to be a message from the Angels.
Your Angels will use feathers of all different shapes and colors to offer you comfort or validation when you need it most. Feathers could also be a clue to an answer you have been looking for, or even a message to tell you you’re on the correct path."

As a holistic nutritionist and lifestyle coach, I will support you in taking steps to a healthier and happier you. My goal is to help you create an art of balance in your life. You will also learn how important balance between primary foods (relationships, physical activity, sleep, career and spirituality) and secondary foods (organic food and whole food) is.
As you know I'm an avid reader! I've been reading a book on detoxing and addictions. Coffee, energy drinks, soda, cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, exercise, food, sugar, wheat/gluten, sex. porn, complaining, blaming, procrastinating...etc. These things numb us and prevent us from receiving messages from our guides and dull our intuition. When our bodies and mind are clear from toxins, our brains are sharper, we are focused, full of energy and more creative!! Thus ready to fulfill our life purpose here on Earth!
Some simple steps to take to help release addictions:
Support/Accountability- Therapist, counselor, energy healer, pastor, family, friends.
Ask your angels and the Universe for help- Call upon Archangel Michael and Raphael specifically for addictions.
Rid your home of anything you use to dull the pain, hurt, boredom, or loneliness.
Fuel your body with clean foods. Avoid processed, acidic foods and other toxins.
Drink plenty of pure, filtered water. When we are dehydrated we are more emotional, develop brain fog, which leads to making bad decisions.
Use essential oils. Particularly Geranium and Rose. Geranium helps regulate your body clock and balances your sleep/wake cycles. It's calming and uplifting at the same time. It also enhances your self-esteem and confidence. Rose brings you to a heart-centered space, with your total awareness being focused on love, which is the ultimate healer. The more love you surround yourself with, the more healing energy you will experience.
Detox negative people from your life. Dramatic, draining, and stressful people have no place in your life. These people can dampen your light and overstep boundaries. If you feel off or uneasy around someone they are usually negatively affecting your energy. Releasing these unhealthy and unbalanced relationships is the healthiest thing you can do.

I received this drawing from an amazing woman I met a few years ago. She comes to most of my Self Love Sister's Meetup Group events and now I proudly call her my friend! She completed a project for me I have been dreading (imputing hundreds of contacts and email addresses into my Constant Contact Database) and hid this picture inside the folder. Needless to say once I found it I was instantly in tears! I never equated sheets of names and email address to all the lives I've changed! Proof that what we do for others and how we treat them DOES indeed make an impact! How we approach those around us is vital to leaving our footprint in the world --which reminds me of a quote I love from Maya Angelou:
Takeaway: I know I've said this before but I'm going to say it again. Do your part. Spread joy not hate. Treat others how you would want to be treated. Leave a POSITIVE legacy behind you when you go! #bethelight

I haven't had a whole lot of time to read as much as I used to but ordered a few books last week and finished this one Saturday! A true escape for me is laying out on a blanket in the grass with the sun shining down on me and disappearing with my nose in a book! :-)
Loves Does, by Bob Goff is a collection of short stories and experiences that show another opportunity for him to love God more, and share that love with the people around him. For Bob, the whole world is an invitation from God:
“I think God sometimes uses the completely inexplicable events in our lives to point us toward Him. We get to decide each time whether we will lean in toward what is unfolding and say yes or back away. The folks who were following Jesus in Galilee got to decide the same thing each day because there was no road map, no program, and no certainty. All they had was this person, an idea, and an invitation to come and see.”
Bob's not a pastor- he's a lawyer, husband and a father. He's had every excuse to live an ordinary life. But instead, Bob says YES. And the stories that result from that answer will amaze you. The escapades with his friend, how he met his wife, his sailing excursion, and how he has helped complete strangers throughout the years.
Love Does has inspired me to dream bigger- To imagine that God is doing something bigger in me than I can grasp. I'm learning to live in the moment more, take more chances, and truly be present in my day to day activities. Each of us can spread joy and God's love! He uses us to do his work here on Earth. Be the light! His love is within us! :-)

After church this last week I have been thinking alot about angels. The next three weeks the sermons are going to be about the "supernatural." I find this very intriguing!
Angels are created beings that are sent here to protect us, deliver messages, and to strengthen and encourage us. I'm pretty sure I have encountered many angels when I have been discouraged when life has not been going according to planned. The messages they send are usually ones that put things back into perspective and turn my focus to what really matters in life!
This reminds me of when my sister gave me a silver clip to put in my car along time ago that reads, "Never drive faster than your guardian angel can fly!" haha I definitely need that reminder! :)
I feel as though there are many angels surrounding me and protecting me especially in this difficult transition time in my life. Some days I ask God to send down angels when I am having a particularly rough day to guide me and surround me with love, peace, serenity, and joy!!
