START THE JOURNEY
5 LIFE-CHANGING STEPS
to a
UNIQUE
MAGICAL
*SACRED YOU*
It's Time
YOU CAN FEEL IT. When you take one little step forward on this journey to your magic, people'll notice. They'll see flickers of your light until it becomes so bright they'll need to wear sunglasses.
​
These 5 life-changing steps are easy. After awhile they'll be in your bones and you won't have to think about them, they'll be a part of you, who you are and what you do. That doesn't mean life will always be easy, it DOES mean that you'll be able to handle the ups and downs in an authentic, peaceful way - as the BEST YOU.
​
I've had countless numbers of people (from strangers to people I've known all my life) tell me I have 'a sparkling light about me'. I feel it, I know it, people see it - and they'll see it in you too.
​
How did I create these 5 Steps? I asked from my heart. My guides sent them, and I absolutely know they work because I've lived them, applied all of them.
​
I'm simply a messenger.
​
Start WRITING , READING , DOING the following steps every day.
Be consistent and one day you'll start to feel something different - your magic.
​
​
step 1
trust your instincts
Not sure if you have good instincts? You definitely do. We all do.
​
LISTEN TO YOUR BODY
Your body NEVER EVER lies, and it ALWAYS knows everything. If something or someone feels right, makes you excited, full of life - then follow that path or person. If something or someone makes you feel icky, bad, sick to your stomach - run in the other direction. It sounds easy, it truly is once you start listening to your body.
​
TRUST THE WHISPERS
Sometimes you just know things but you don't trust it - it may be a thought that pops into your head. Things don't just pop in there for no reason. Start trusting it, that's your soul, your angels, your guides helping you - giving you a nudge in the right direction. Follow those whispers and you'll find the magic.

EXAMPLE
​​
MOVING TO A FOREIGN COUNTRY: When my husband and I decided to move to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico from Chicago, we were soooo excited that we couldn't stand it! Our whole bodies had the goosies! Friends and family had doubts about us moving. And when we thought about it with our logical brain, it would be safer financially to stay in the U.S. We were both making good money, and if we moved to Mexico we didn't know for sure what we'd do. Yet, there we were, we couldn't stop being so fricken' excited! So we did it - and this decision positively changed and opened our lives in a zillion incredible magical ways.
step 2
notice your thoughts
You have thoughts all day long. Have you paid attention to them?
​
YOUR THOUGHTS ARE EVERYTHING
They can raise your energy, they can bring you down, they can make you feel incredible, they can make you feel bad. Start listening to your thoughts several times a day. Notice what thoughts make you feel amazing and decide to think those kind of thoughts. You have the power to decide. That doesn't mean you have to be airy fairy happy all the time - allow yourself to be sad, angry, give yourself permission. But you make the decision of what you think. Be in charge - find the thoughts that are good for you, make you stronger, more confident, more you.
​
What you watch on television or on your phone affect your thoughts. Notice your thoughts after watching something, and based on that, you might change what you watch or adjust the amount of time watching it.
​
ACCEPT WHAT IS
When something happens that you don't want to happen, what do you do? Do you fight it, obsess about it? Want a different outcome? If you don't accept what is, you'll feel awful and be in more pain (physically or mentally). Once you accept what is, breathe deeply. Sometimes things happen and it was just meant to be at that perfect time. That doesn't mean you won't feel intense sadness at times, it does mean that your life will get easier and open up to love and peace, acceptance and gratitude, once you accept 'what is'.
​
​
​​
EXAMPLE
​
CANKER SORE: In high school I had braces on my teeth. Often I developed canker sores on my gums. I hated them, fought them, obsessed about them. And tried everything under the sun to get rid of them. Even put salt on them because it hurt like hell so I figured the pain would be less or the salt would dissolve it - didn't help, the pain was worse than ever and they would last two weeks minimum. One day I heard advice about physical pain - tell the pain that you accept it. That's it? Sounds crazy but I was willing to try. The next time I had a canker sore, I told it that I accept it, I accept my mouth - and truly believed what I was saying. IT WORKED! The pain went from a 10 to a 2. And the sore did not last long.
​
​​
EXERCISE
​
Think of something negative that's happened in your life for one minute, then notice how you feel. Now think of something positive that's happened in your life for one minute, then notice how you feel.
​
Negative thoughts will drag you down, your energy, your life, will make you sick. Negative thoughts include judging others - every time you judge others, you're bringing negativity to yourself. Instead of judging, accept what is and think of something positive about the other person. Don't let others rule your thoughts. You rule your thoughts, You're in charge of You, and you can decide to focus on bringing good things to your life with POSITIVE, JOYFUL THOUGHTS.
step 3
you're #1
Put yourself first. Yes you may have to work, take care of kids, go grocery shopping. That's part of life, it's the choices you make, do them with grace. You can still put yourself first.
​
WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL ALIVE
What do you love to do, makes you feel ALIVE. Start making time for those things every day, even if it's for 5 minutes. Once you give yourself permission to do the things you love, you'll be a better person for YOU and for everyone around you.
​
BE CLEAR ABOUT YOUR NEEDS
You can compromise, you can negotiate, but be clear about what you want with yourself and with others. It's okay to disagree, it's not okay to be someone you're not because you want to please someone else. You're special, unique and important - put yourself first by letting others know what you want. The most important thing in your life is what You think of You.
MAKE BOUNDARIES
If you don't want to go to a party, don't go. If you don't want a friend to visit on a Tuesday, schedule a different day. It's your life, your schedule. Sometimes you may want to compromise, but the majority of what you do needs to be what you want to do, always add boundaries when necessary.
​
​
​​
EXAMPLE
​
PARTIES: I thought I should love parties for years, until I realized I don't like parties - and that's okay! Surfacy chit chat is tough for me, I'd much rather have a deep conversation one on one or in a very small group of a few people. And I'd much rather be doing something at a party instead of talking - dancing, playing a game. Do I still go to parties? Yes. I have an exit plan though and limit the time I'm there. It feels empowering to know that i can say no, and I can say I need to leave without giving a reason.​
step 4
MEDITATE
OH NO - Not the dreaded meditate!
​
That's what I used to think too.
​
I thought - 'I should meditate, but it's hard for me to sit still and think of nothing, it's boring, though it'll be good for me. I think I'll do something else instead'.
​
The good news is that it doesn't have to be boring, simply find your way to meditate that's inspiring, fun, mind-blowing. And it could be different every time or the same every time, find YOUR MEDITATION. Whether you listen to a guided meditation, chant, go on a journey - set up a routine that you follow. I'll be working on special meditations for you, in the meantime, search for different methods. One of my favorite healing meditations I sometime listen to is Joe Dispenza - he has free meditations on YouTube.
​
Once you find one or more methods that you like, and you meditate every day for at least 5 minutes, you'll start craving meditation, it'll make each day more grounded and that's when you discover YOU. The REAL YOU. It's about turning off your thoughts, and letting go.
​
There's special gold when you quiet the ego chatter.
step 5
INTENTION
If you're okay with being a hum drum 'just okay you', you'll never find the best you. But YOU'RE HERE! Which means your intention is to be the UNIQUE MAGICAL *SACRED YOU*.
​
INTENTION IS EASY
All you have to do is one or all of these:
THINK OF YOUR INTENTION
WRITE YOUR INTENTION
DRAW YOUR INTENTION.
​
Get it out there in the universe.
​
There's no right or wrong way of making an intention. Intentions can be big or small. Notice what you want, get it out there, and that's what you'll create. (Also, don't expect a certain time-line, that's not up to you). Think of your intention, see it, know it... each day, each week, each month, as often as you want... and then let it go, knowing it will happen.
That's the 5 Steps! Congratulations!
You started the Journey to the
UNIQUE MAGICAL *SACRED YOU*
