    #MondayMantra Body of Gratitude

    November 20, 2017 - By 

    During our Sparkle Hour podcast interview this morning with the incredible Dianne Bondy of Dianne Bondy Yoga, I was reminded of exactly how amazing our bodies really are. In every size. In every shape. In every color. In every gender. In all abilities. Just amazing! If you need a reminder to be kind to yourself and love the body you live in, let this Monday Mantra be it: “I am grateful for the body that I live in right now.” 💖🦋 I invite you to check out our empowering podcast, The Sparkle Hour, available on iTunes.

    #FridayFeels Live Your Dream Life

    November 17, 2017 - By 

    How do I know that I’m living the Dream? When I’m sitting in my cozy home office, recording a Sparkle Hour podcast episode with my beloved cousin and one of our hot shit dream guests, and I suddenly get a surprise drop in from my son… delivering me a gift of Venti deliciousness and $$! I have a million more reasons to be grateful and tons of evidence that I’m living my dream life, and I want that for you, too. Big wins + little luxuries, joy + ecstasy, mind-blowing wonder + everyday eternal wisdom. Life abundantly lived. You, shining.…

    #MondayMantra I am Safe to Embrace Every Season of Life

    November 17, 2017 - By 

    Life is not linear, but rather it is cyclical. We observe in nature the changing seasons and experience the same. The new growth. The shining fullness. The gentle shedding. The silent slumber. Sometimes, experiencing these seasons in our lives and the lives of our loved ones comes as a transition that we may feel unprepared for; fear and sadness may suddenly overtake us in these moments of our growing pains, of our great expansion, of our letting go, of our final rest. But with faith and practice, we need not fear the changes in Life. We can completely feel them.…

    #FridayFeels Visualization as a Tool for Positivity

    November 10, 2017 - By 

    Did you know that you can use the powerful technique of visualization to create more positivity in your life? It’s a simple and easy to implement tool that can move you from default-thinking about “worst case scenario” and allow yourself the possibility of something better… something brighter… something more beautiful for yourself and your life (yes honey, you DO deserve good things). Try this exercise: picture yourself in a totally dreamy, once-in-a-lifetime scene. Imagine what it looks like, sounds like, smells like. Is it a job/career? Is it an exotic vacation? Is it accepting an award? See yourself as 100%…

    #FridayFeels So Positive!

    October 27, 2017 - By 

    People often ask me, “Michelle, how are you always so happy & positive? I want to be more like that, but ____.” The thing is, I’m not ALWAYS super happy, because, you know, I’m not a robot. I’m not Pollyanna either. But, I have cultivated a practice of looking for the Light, and finding the Positive in all of my situations and circumstances. It began as a survival technique for me and became my modus operandi; it’s not *just* something I was born with. I can teach you how to live with a more positive mindset too. Not with a…

    #MondayMantra Release

    September 25, 2017 - By 

    This weekend I gathered with family to say final goodbyes to an aunt, an uncle, and a cousin. It was a beautiful day and perfect weather for a scattering at sea; the water was calm, peaceful, glass-like as the ocean gathered in their ashes. The flower petals swirled above them in a fluid dance before slowly sinking beneath. Memories of holidays celebrated together mixed with the white ash cloud, beautiful memories, painful memories, complicated memories, and then…release. Peace. On board, there are still squabbles among the Living. There is so much pain being passed around like a note in class,…

    #MondayMantra I Am Here

    September 4, 2017 - By 

    Wherever you go, there you are… so where are you today? Is your mind detached from your body, is your heart on one side of the world while you’re somewhere else? It’s not that these are “bad” things, but there is another way. Practice total mindfulness by allowing yourself to be fully present in your immediate surroundings, while simultaneously consciously connecting your spirit to every being. Whoa! The power of it is INTENSE and at first, you will only be able to handle it for a split-second… but I promise you, it’s totally worth it. Sending my Love and Light…
