This weeks intentions

I'm not going to lie, I woke up this morning in a bit of a negative mood. I couldn't shake the feeling that my dream of giving up the rat race and becoming a writer full time, was only ever going to be just that and it left me feeling pretty fucking depressed. I haven't been in my sanctuary since Thursday. I was at a funeral on Friday and this weekend we have had decorators upstairs, so as soon as the they left this morning, I got into my little woman cave, put some motivating essential oils in my diffuser and read the next chapter of The Miracle Morning, which fully motivated me to set my intentions for the week. The chapter I have just read was called The Life S.A.V.E.R.S. Which are the below six practices to carry out each morning. - Silence - Affirmations - Visualisation - Exercise - Reading - Scribing I was really happy to see that I already do a couple of these things as part of my morning and evening routine, which means it wouldn't be such a massive overhaul to my life. The only one I am quite uncertain about is affirmations. Blowing my own trumpet doesn't come very easy to me, so saying out loud that "I am" something that I don't quite feel I am (I haven't decided on my affirmations yet) makes me feel a bit cringe, but if doing these affirmations and doing them properly, will help me succeed and feel better then I'm going to go for it. Its only the husband who will hear me and he needs to realise how fabulous I am also! I then spent some time scrolling through pinterest for affirmation ideas and inspiration for my vision board, occasionally finding a diffuser blend I want to try (I'm getting a bit obsessed with them) The SAVERS can be done in any order, to suit what is best for you, so I might try a different order each day to see what I prefer, although from previous experience, I do find that getting the exercise part out of the way first is preferable! I am now out of my little negative fog and sitting in my sanctuary feeling motivated, happy and excited about the week ahead! #intention #love #meditation #mindfulness #selfcare #gratitude #selflove #motivation #healing #manifestation #inspiration #energy #spirituality #purpose #manifest #intentionalliving #life #intuition #goals #wellness #consciousness #mindset #spiritual #believe #awareness #success #miraclemorning#morningroutine #motivation #amclub #mindset #miracle #morning #morningmotivation #habit

Is Success The Thing That Scares Us? Or Is It Failure We Really Fear?

Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm. - Winston Churchill If you fear failure, the above quote from Winston Churchill can be seen as comforting, failing at something can be a huge blow to our egos. But what if you aren't scared to fail? What if succeeding is the thing that scares you most? Failure is something that some of us are quite prepared for. Before we've even set out to do something, that voice in your head is already saying "it probably won't work out". We often prepare ourselves for the worst outcome to protect our fragile egos. If we fail, things will stay as they are and whether we are happy with our current situation or not, it is a lot easier to stay in a familiar situation. Of course, we don't want to fail, we'll feel rubbish about it, sometimes it means we can't do the things we had hoped for at the time, but ultimately, nothing has changed, and we can usually fall back into our old routin...

Moody Monday

Last night I made myself some overnight oats, which was actually a great trick as when I tried to have my usual argument with myself this morning about shall I exercise or stay in bed, I had to get up because I had to have my refuel meal. I decided to go up to level 3 on the Joe Wicks DVD, bloody hell, who thought that 5 seconds more could make such a difference? Feeling achey, but all pleased with myself. I got ready for work and enjoyed my oats I was in pretty happy mood for a Monday, work was pretty quiet so I thought I would go online and look for some outfits for my birthday dinner with the boyfriend on Friday. I'm not sure if this was the trigger, as I did find it quite depressing looking at all these slim women and all these lovely dresses and knowing that I was not going to be able to wear any of them but suddenly the black cloud arrived, I had managed to avoid it for the last few days but now it was well and truly here. By the time I finished work I was a really bad mood...

3 Small Intentions I’m Setting This Week To Energise Me After My Holiday

Revisit my routine After 2 weeks away and being 5 hours behind, everything is a little up in the air. There are things I want to remove from my routine and things I would like to add. Exercise I started using the FIIT app before I went away so I want to get back to that. All that walking around made me realise I need to improve my fitness. Writing articles I write every day but just for my personal blog, I want to write some articles so that when I make pitches they’re ready to go. I plan to work very hard this week! What are your intentions? ❤️
