Divine Beauty
There is an indescribable amount of healing found in nature. The divine beauty of nature is grounding; the pure majestic essence of its being. It’s admirable how simply walking barefoot in the grass can provide a sense of calm and recalibration of the mind, body, and soul. As I continue to navigate my way through this healing process, I have leaned into nature for its unwavering support and guidance.
The wind blowing through the crisp November air, the sun rising to see another day, and the slow and steady heartbeat of the soul, embarking on a new adventure in this thing called life. Each day is a true blessing. I have learned to be grateful for simplicity. Grateful.
When I became a mother, every childhood milestone was cherished and honoured with love and happiness. My child’s first words, first steps, first of anything was meant to be marvelled at. As mothers, we learn how to savour the ordinary, because it too can be extraordinary. So why can’t we treat all of our life with such excitement and exuberance?
The answer is, we can. Gratitude.
Really sit and lean into the power behind this word.
What are you grateful for today? If we stop and take a moment to appreciate some simple pieces of our day, we can expand our hearts to accept more love within. The more love I’m able to accept is exchanged for the love I am able to give back.
What are you grateful for?
For me, I am graciously humbled by my children and family. I have a fierce group of powerful women (and men) who support me unconditionally throughout my healing. There’s a fuel behind leaning into people who want to help support you, those who genuinely want to watch you thrive. Asking for that lending hand of guidance will be pivotal in shifting the lens so that there’s a gleam of light in the dark hollows of the mind. I love welcoming new connections with people. They can be invigorating as they provide a sense of spontaneity, exploration and zest. I am grateful for my health; mental and physical.
Most importantly, I am grateful for my strength, my ability to push boundaries within, show immense growth, and live with great purpose. I want to lead a life fuelled by love in the highest form.
