#MotivationMonday...Make a List...

4.16-MondayMotivation-Make a list..

Seems so simple yet why don't we do more things that make us happy?

 

Two daily habits that I'm starting to do is walking one dog and playing the piano...and despite my daily challenges as a student, mother, entrepreneur and human, I have 2 things that I can count on to make me happy!

 

What will you do?

#MondayMotivation - Reintroducing Myself as Allie_ooops!

4.9-MondayMotivation - Better an oops.jpg

 

#Change is hard...

 

And although I embrace the changes in my life, the road to that change can be exasperating, challenging and just plain exhausting!  

 

However, on my worst days, I take myself back to where I'm laying awake at 3 am wishing I lived a different life...

 

The last couple of months have been a lot of work!  I feel constantly behind and this morning, I wonder if I really made a great decision.

 

And then, the #Universe, in it's wisdom, sent this ...

 

Just call me Allie_OOOps...

#MantraMonday - The Curious Approach

4.2-MotivationMonday-A Curious Approach

Although it's a little chilly, it is the beginning of #Spring.

 

#Growth...#Blooms...a Fresh Way of Looking at Life

 

I'm learning a lot in my Functional Medicine Coaching Program and my biggest take-a-way last month was to approach the world from a curious perspective.  

 

Look at the world with wonder & amazement - listen without judgment - separate problems from identity...

 

Gonna try this for April...who's with me?

#Travel #Thursday - #StayCations - Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden - Cal State Long Beach, CA

3.29-TravelThursday - StayCation - Koi - CSULB

Spring is in the air!...

 

Ten years ago, our budget was pretty limited.  But it was Spring Break  and I had an energetic 3rd grader.  I was determined to show her a good time.   We lived so closed to CSULB so we decided to take a nice bike ride on the campus.

 

I remember riding by The #EarlBurnsMillerJapaneseGardens and she wanted to go in.  I happily agreed.

 

We came across this beautiful pond and both of us had our #Ahhhmoment...we still remember that happy day...

 

 

Happy Spring and go find your "Ahhh" moment...

Learned a new word in the #dailymeditation this morning...

#SANTOSHA

 

#comfortable and #content

 

Most of us continually strive to be better...why not do this coming from a place of acceptance and gratefulness of who you are now?

#TuesdayThoughts - Finding People Who Believe in You!

 

3.6-ThoughtfulTuesday - Tribe 

 

 

Finding your Tribe is the buzzwords these days and while I tend to resist anything that sounds "trendy," this resonates with me to the core!   

 

I mentioned on Monday that I had a challenging month and I would have never made it through without the support of my "Tribe."  

 

Despite their current challenges & busy busy lives, my fellow weirdos, took the time to text, call and even force me outside of my "cave" to make sure that I knew that they had faith in me.

 

Even if I fell...

 

They assured me that they would pick me up, dust me off and send me back on my way...

 

I would be nothing without them...

 

#FindYourTribe...and let them know how much you love & appreciate them...

#MotivationMonday...Words Matter...Be Kind To Yourself

3.5-MotivationMonday-the way you speak..

Last month was ...well, I can't describe it.  

 

It was challenging and exhilarating all at the same time!

 

I signed up for something that was really hard for me to do.  I berated myself and that little voice in my head was constantly reminded me how flawed I was...

 

Luckily, my support system was louder than that little bitty sh*tty voice and I was able to accomplish what I set out to do...

 

The way you speak to yourself really does matter...We need to be kinder to ourselves and treat ourselves with love and encouragement.  

 

This is my #MondayMotivation for the week...

 

#selflove, #nurture

#MondayMotivation on a Tuesday - Where Did All The Time Go?

2.26-MondayMotivation-Time

 

And...I ran out of time on Monday to post my #MondayMotivation picture...

 

now, THAT'S irony...

 

How many of you feel like you could make better use of your time?  

 

We MAKE the time for other priorities like our families, work and community.  But, why do we come last?...

 

I'm typing this as I'm throwing out the horrible fast food I succumbed to because there wasn't time to cook, along with my achy lower back because I didn't have time to do my daily yoga.

 

It's funny, I schedule everything else in my life except for ME TIME.  This week, I'm going to do it differently...

 

How about you?
