Times, They Sure Are A-Changing

Many people are being nudged to transition their lives in various ways—whether it's changing careers, relocating, re-evaluating priorities, or choosing to spend more time with loved ones. It seems to be a season of significant decision-making.

The energetic climate “out there” can feel intense at times—especially for those who are highly sensitive or deeply empathetic. While everyone’s perspective is unique, many would agree that, despite the challenges, the last two years have also brought profound blessings.

Some have had more quality time with their families. Pets have enjoyed having their humans home more often. Others have turned inward, finding space for self-reflection, spiritual practice, or wellness routines. We’ve been reminded of what truly matters—and perhaps even more importantly, what does not. There is immense gratitude now, even for the smallest things.

This is a time of deep discernment—a time to trust your own intuition more than ever. It’s okay to question everything:

·        What no longer serves you?

·        What is draining your energy or creating unnecessary stress?

·        Is working 60–70 hours a week sustainable?

·        How might you transition into doing something that you genuinely love?

·        What choices would support your highest good?

Working on ourselves—mind, body, and spirit—is essential to cultivating a sense of calm, clarity, and peace. It's through this inner work that we feel more secure and aligned in the outer world.

To the caregivers: yes, it is beautiful to help others, but not at the cost of your own well-being. You are not here to fix others—you are here to heal yourself. That healing radiates outward. Self-care is more vital now than ever. Remember: you cannot pour from an empty cup.

Healing is happening on so many levels right now. The world needs your real, authentic self—and the unique gifts you bring to humanity.

It’s time to shine your light—bright, wide, and far.

Ways to support your well-being:

1. Hydrate with purified water.
2. Eat well - Choose real food - such as quality proteins (e.g., plant-based, organic meats), fresh or frozen organic vegetables, healthy fats (e.g., olive oil, avocado, nuts, seeds), and complex carbohydrates (e.g., quinoa, wild rice, oats).
3. Energize with superfoods such as a cup of organic matcha green tea, or a fruit and vegetable smoothie with added superfood ingredients like Berry Power, Barley Grass, or Matcha.
4. Feel yourself dragging? Need a jump start? Try some quality coconut water or fresh coconut meat from young Thai coconuts.
5. Get sufficient sleep. If possible, try to get to bed by 10 pm. If you have difficulty with sleep, seek out natural approaches to support sleep such as listening to sleep frequency music, assorted herbals, supplements, etc. 
6. Try a hot bath or shower with essential oil bath bombs or shower steamers to help relax you.
7. Try a relaxing salt bath or salt foot soak while meditating, reading a book or watching TV.
8. Consider a massage.
9. Consider acupuncture.
10. Consider a distance healing Reiki session.
11. Create your own sacred space in your home where you can go and unwind and find peace. Light an essential oil candle to set your intention for the space.
12. Love to unwind by taking a mini road trip? - set the relaxing mood with an essential oil, all-natural car air freshener. There is a strong connection between aromatherapy and emotional well-being. 
13. Listen to healing music including music with certain healing frequencies and vibrations (e.g., 432hz, 528hz, 728hz). (You can find this on YouTube).
14. Meditate regularly. A guided meditation can be helpful. Even just 5–10-minute meditations throughout the day can be transformative.
15. Visit a salt cave for some relaxation time.
16. Take a class that you have always wanted to take.
17. Take up Qi Gong or some other form of movement.
18. Take a walk with your pup in the beautiful sunshine.
19. Treat Yourself to a self-care kit from your favorite bath and body shop.
20. Indulge your senses with some delicious, organic dark chocolate covered organic strawberries.
21. Use a healthy meal delivery service or order from places like Fabalish to have ready-made food on hand when you don’t feel up to cooking.
22. Snuggle up with a delicious cup of tea and an inspiring book.
23. Indulge yourself in a nap - Don't underestimate the power of a restorative nap.
24. Start journaling - journaling is good for your soul. It helps us to empty our head so we can get clarity. It is also a great way to keep track of ideas and projects.  Setting intentions is a powerful way to manifest what you are trying to create in your life. 
25. Last but not least, look in the mirror every day and tell yourself how amazing you are!               

Your light is seen, your heart is known, your soul is cherished by more people than you might imagine. If you knew how many others have been touched in wonderful ways by you, you would be astonished. If you knew how many people feel so much for you, you would be shocked. You are far more wonderful than you think you are. Rest with that. Rest easy with that. Breathe again. You are doing fine. More than fine. Better than fine. You’re doin’ great. So relax. And love yourself today. ~ Neale Donald Walsch
