A Note From Dana Boyle
Greetings!
In
February, I am excited to see the year's delights begin to unfold
before my eyes. Having set my intentions, I am ready for my results to
show up. Having made a list of goals, submitted my order, I'm ready
for a miracle or two.
This year is going to be the year of
expansion for me. I don't know about you, but I've unconsciously or
seemingly unwillingly put myself into a box for the past several years
on many levels. It is out of the box for me this year, and I can't
wait to experience a new way of living...wait, I am already
experiencing it.
February is the month of love, of
Valentine's Day.
In celebration of the month of love, I suggest that we examine how love
can raise your vibration so that you are flowing the good stuff into
your life with ease. Come on, explore with me. It'll be fun.
Some
buy into the idea that Valentine's Day is a cheesy, Hallmark-invented
holiday, but I believe we take so few opportunities to celebrate, and
it's even more rare that we dedicate our thoughts and intentions to
celebrating love, not just romantic love. Romantic love is nice. I'll
be doting on my very special someone this romance season (and he's
always doting on me). I also want to express the love I have for my
friends and family. Even one step beyond that, wouldn't it be nice if
I could show love in all of my actions, all of my interactions with
others and all of the ways that I deal with my own self? February is
as good a month as any, and it's symbolic of love, so I'll give it a
shot.
I want to welcome you to Secret Garden Coaching if you are
new. It's a pleasure to meet you. To my returning friends and
clients, thank you for reading.
Love and Chocolate Truffles,
Dana
Feature Article: Picking Up Good Vibrations
Ever
really, really want something to happen in your life but it just won't
seem to come? You focus, set goals, take action, work hard toward your
goal, maybe even beg, plead or bully others to make it happen and your
order comes up short despite your efforts?
How
do you feel when this happens to you? Is it frustrating? Do you begin
to ruminate about what it is that you're trying to change? Do you
complain about what you don't want, what it is that you currently don't
like in your life that has caused you to set the new goal or make the
new wish? Do you even find yourself having less patience than usual or
feeling angry or overwhelmed?
Your emotions are a
powerful tool. They are a guidance system in many ways. First, and
foremost, they tell you important things about yourself and what you
are experiencing in your life. If you have negative emotions, use them
as a map to guide you through perhaps first what it is that you are
experiencing that is causing the negative emotion. Then use that
information to determine what you want to happen instead. Be
specific. What does it feel like to have what you want to happen in
the here and now, as if it already happened? Describe those feelings
in detail. Then do what comes naturally, because your emotional
guidance system will have told you, if you're listening, what you
should do next.
Aside from serving as a personal GPS
to guide you to the next best steps, your emotions and your overall
emotional vibration are similar to a gas pedal or a brake, depending on
which types of emotions you are experiencing. When you feel something
negative, you are not a match to your desires, instead, you are a match
to what you don't want, the thing that is causing you upset. This
serves as a brake pedal against what it is you are striving for. But
when you feel positive emotions and have an overall uplifting
vibration, you are a match to your desires and they flow into your life
much quicker and with more ease.
Don't believe me? Pay attention to your GPS and experiment with it.
So, what if you want to give your vibration a tune up so that it runs more smoothly?
We
are all love. That is what we are. It's the point of being here.
Love manifests itself in many ways, but we are a manifestation of it as
well, in human form. So...how do you raise your vibration, and how
does love play into it? All things flow easily when you can be the
love that you are. Yes, that's what I said. Be the love that you
are. Be what the Creator intended you to be when you were born.
What
are a few simple steps you can invoke to clean up your vibration and be
the love that you are, so you can flow the good stuff, good vibrations,
into your life with ease?
- Know your core values and honor them daily.
- Practice extreme self-care, indulge yourself, do what feels best, use your GPS as a guide.
- Thoughts become things, so choose your thoughts. If they don't serve you, change them.
- Be kind to those around you...literally be the love that you are, outwardly.
- Choose your media. Negative vibes can come from shows, songs, news, etc. that don't feel good.
- Stand in appreciation for what you have and who you have in your life.
- Purge.
Clutter can zap your vibe. Get rid of what doesn't serve you and what
you do not absolutely love and organize the rest (that means the Monica
closet, too.)
- Random acts of kindness. Pay it forward.
- Connect
with nature. It can be your furry friend, a singing bird out your
window, toes in the wet grass, or a long walk by the shore. What feels
best? What connects you to nature?
- Listen to yourself.
Nobody knows what is best for you better than you. Friends aren't for
advice as much as they are for support when you do what's right for you.
Each
one of those things can hike up your vibration. Get in tune with most
of them most of the time and you will be cruising along on the way to
your party. What party? The one you ordered, remember? What is it
going to feel like when you get there? Radiate those emotions now, as
if you are already there with your best friend.
If you are
feeling zapped, as if something is blocking you from your goals, or if
you just need a vibrational tune up and a little help getting there,
please feel free to call me for a consultation. In the meantime, be
the love that you are.
