The complete story...

❤︎

For more than two decades, I dedicated my life to a hectic, self-employed career in photography. Over twenty years of working nights and weekends, long photoshoot workdays, and all-nighters around the holidays resulted in burn-out. I still loved my career but needed the pace to slow down because I wasn’t taking care of myself the way I wanted and needed to. I kept saying, “I’ll take a walk tomorrow” or “I’ll get more sleep tomorrow.” I thought that doing things for myself and taking time for me was selfish, and deep down, I knew if I didn’t slow down, my body would force change upon me. Slowly, very slowly, I began taking steps towards small acts of self-love. I learned the personal practice of Transcendental Meditation®, made time for the walks, enjoyed nature, and created jewelry to help remind me of the intentions I set to live more mindfully with self-love. I wanted to learn how to make real healthy changes and became a Holistic Nutritionist and Health + Wellness Coach. I earned teaching certifications in meditation, mindfulness, qigong and yoga. Yoga became a way of living, not just a physical practice. I spent hours upon hours reading, researching, and experimenting with mindfulness and meditation, crystals and their vibrational frequencies, singing bowls and sound therapy, and learned about the power of working with the moon cycles. I became much more self-aware and discovered that my mood would lift when eating nutritious foods, enjoying the present moment and taking deep, mindful breaths. There were simple tools to help me stay on my path when challenges would arise. I discovered a way to stay present and mindful, relieving stress and tension by creating mindfulness tools to keep me centered and grounded. The desire to keep building upon my inner strength, courage, and self-love turned into sharing simple techniques with those I love. It’s beautiful seeing others, also on a journey towards self-love, make their world a happier place, and the world around them, and the world around those around them, raising the overall vibration of our planet because they too discovered the love and happiness they desire is within.

love yourself + love others + ripple effect = loved world
