I’m going to get real honest with you fam - I’ve been feeling the heavy energy lately and this last week has been quite the challenge for me. *** It’s important to recognize that no matter where we each are on our journeys - everyone, and I mean EVERYONE has challenges that they’re working through. 💚 *** Life can be overwhelming and when everything feels as though it’s moving at breakneck pace, it’s easy to want to check out mentally - whether that’s through an unhealthy coping mechanism, distraction (Netflix I’m lookin at you), isolation, or food. *** One of the powerful tools I’m learning is to SLOW. DOWN. For a fast-moving go-getter with a lot of Aries in her chart, this is one of my biggest challenges. 🐌 *** If you’re feeling triggered and stressed out, I invite you to join me in this slowing down process! *** Take a step back and pause. Pause before reacting, Pause before doing. Pause before getting back on track. Pause and BREATHE. Block out some You time in your schedule. 🧘🏻‍♀️ *** Whatever is meant for you will still be there when you return - grounded and re-centered. *** What does slowing down look like for you? What fears do you have surrounding slowing down and taking a break? How could slowing down now and reevaluating your situation help you in your future endeavors? Comment below to pause! 👇🏻 *** Schedule a coaching session! DM 👉🏻 @lotuscoaching13 *** 📸: Brandon Carey Jewelry: the colorful and vivacious Nina @chak_ya_sense *** Take a breath Beloved 🙏🏻💓✨ *** #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #healthcoach #lifecoach #healthcoaching #holistichealthcoach #healthcoachlife #wellnesscoach #wellnesscoaching #coachinglife #lifecoaching #onlinehealthcoach #lotuscoaching13 #health #healthyliving #heal #goals #coaching #wellness #holisticwellness #roc #rochester #empowerment #affirmations #spiritual #awakening #raiseyourvibration #raiseyourfrequency #dailyinspiration
How can you change the story you’ve created about your life and your history? ✨ *** All of us, and I mean ALL, have had traumas, challenges, and difficult situations in our past. We’re all human and no one has a picture perfect life - no matter what social media may have us believe. *** Some of us have let this past define who we are today - we cling to this idea that our lives are something that happens TO us, rather than our lives being something we actively CREATE. 🎨 *** Look at the story you’re telling yourself about your life today. Are you trapped in the victim mentality and playing the blame game for your woes? *** Why not choose to tell yourself an empowering story about the way your life has unfolded? *** I could choose to tell myself that my life has been a series of fuck ups - from being heavily medicated as a young adult, to being in abusive relationships, to being hospitalized, to dealing with addiction and mental “illness”, to being raped. I could tell myself that life is unfair and none of this should have happened to me. And for a long time, that is exactly what I did. *** When I chose to lose the victim mindset and step into empowerment, I changed the story I told myself about the events in my past. Now, all these traumas and abuse serve me- they are part of my come back story! If none of these things happened, I wouldn’t understand healing the way I do and be able to serve others in a completely unique way. 🙏🏻 *** Decide for yourself what your past means to you! How is the current story about your past holding you prisoner? What story would help you step into your power? How is future you different than present you?

Dedication to your craft and actively honing your skills has set you ahead of the curve. 🐉 *** Be open to receiving love and support from loved ones today - it is okay to accept praise for all you have done! *** Now that you have begun to create your own success story, it is time to evaluate the next steps in your journey. *** What next action steps do you need to take in order to continue your trajectory?

How do we know when one phrase of our life has ended and when to move on to the next? 🌅 *** We experience many metaphorical deaths in our lives - death of past selves, death of who we thought we should be, death of paths that have closed to us. 💀 *** The best thing we can do when faced with the closing out of a cycle is to know when to move on. If you’re a tad stubborn (read: persistent) like myself, this can come with some resistance! *** Whether the death is of a former self, a job, a relationship, a way of being, investment- it is crucial we examine some key factors. 👇🏻 *** Is the situation currently serving your growth and expansion? Is it in alignment with where and who you want to be in the future? Is it bringing you more pain than joy? *** Look inward to determine if you need to close out a cycle with love and grace. Once you have done so, you open up space to welcome more of what is meant for you! 🔮 *** Schedule a coaching session! DM 👉🏻 @lotuscoaching13 *** 📸: Brandon Carey Jewelry: the colorful and vivacious Nina @chak_ya_sense *** Release what no longer serves you Beloved 🙏🏻❤️💡 *** #healthcoach #lifecoach #healthcoaching #holistichealthcoach #healthcoachlife #wellnesscoach #wellnesscoaching #coachinglife #lifecoaching #onlinehealthcoach #lotuscoaching13 #health #healthyliving #heal #goals #coaching #wellness #holisticwellness #roc #rochester #empowerment #affirmations #spiritual #awakening #raiseyourvibration #raiseyourfrequency #dailyinspiration
Each of us acts as a mirror and reflects hidden parts of others to themselves so they may see and become aware. 🔮 *** Trust in the feelings and sensations you receive from the external environment. Empathize with others and express true compassion by embodying the unconditional love vibration! Easier said than done, but a little kindness goes a long way. 💝 *** Recognize when rationalization and logic are limited and focus on emotional well-being. We are all here to support and teach each other and can do so by drawing on our intuition, sense of peace, and being connected to your emotions. *** We each have the ability to sense the needs of those around us and the ability to connect on a soul level with others - IF we so choose. It’s all about freedom of choice fam! *** Because #empaths in particular are so responsive to feelings of others, we must be extra vigilant about our self care practices and upholding boundaries. 🌻 *** How can you express your love and light today? What does being interconnected mean to you? What would help you to show up in the world as your highest version?

Channel your inner zen and train your mind to be still in times of stress. 🕉 *** I was conversing with a friend the other day about learning to navigate and temper our emotional landscape - first when we are at our baseline energy. *** The best way to do this is by cultivating a daily practice of tuning in - meditation, yoga, journaling - whatever works for you! *** When we are in times of high stress and emotional chaos, it is more challenging to maintain our inner peace. We can think of the daily routine as maintenance and practice for the game or show! *** An athlete or artist must hone their skills through dedication, investing their time, and practice. So too must we do the same when learning to strengthen our emotional and mental muscles! 🧡💪🏻 *** This way, when game time comes, we are prepared to embody the #zen state and choose to consciously respond to situations rather than being triggered into reaction. 🧘🏻‍♀️ Your internal landscape is your responsibility! *** What tools can you use to better navigate your emotional landscape? What does having a zen mind state mean to you? Comment below to embrace the stillness! 👇🏻 *** 📸: Tony Huang *** Schedule a coaching session!

We all fall down from time to time! Trying something new, taking risks, creating - all of these are riddled with failure and obstacles. Luckily failure is an incredibly powerful teacher! 🦋 *** Some of us, myself included, may feel discouraged by #failure and take this as a sign of our lack of worthiness or progress. Chances are we were shamed and rejected in childhood for “unsuccessful” endeavors and haven’t cultivated a resilient mindset in embracing failures as an essential part of the process! *** In order to fall, we must be in motion- we must have been moving forwards to fall in the first place. In this way, falling or failing is simply a part of the learning process of continual growth and evolution! 🐛 *** We can each take a lesson from our child selves. In learning to walk, we undoubtably fell countless times. And yet, this never deterred is from learning to walk. Failure and falling can only stop us if we allow it to my friends! *** How can you reframe your failures as opportunities for growth and essential learning experiences? Where do your traumas surrounding fear of failure come from? What could you do if you released your resistance to failure? Comment below to fail with flair! 👇🏻 *** If you’d like to discuss this further, please feel free to reach out! DM 👉🏻 @lotuscoaching13 💓 *** You are worthy Beloved 🙏🏻💚🌷 *** #healthcoach #lifecoach #healthcoaching #holistichealthcoach #healthcoachlife #wellnesscoach #wellnesscoaching #coachinglife #lifecoaching #onlinehealthcoach #lotuscoaching13 #health #healthyliving #heal #goals #coaching #wellness #holisticwellness #roc #rochester #empowerment #affirmations #spiritual #awakening #raiseyourvibration #raiseyourfrequency #dailyinspiration
Energy Calibration Check - Friday, November 08, 2019: 6 of Cups *** Fond memories show us that happiness and harmony is of our own creation. 💞 *** In relationships, we are looking at how we receive and give of our time, energy, and love. Free yourself from expectations in regards to these precious exchanges. *** Challenging emotions that arise give us the opportunity to give loved ones the benefit of the doubt and to leave the past in the past. Are your old traumas still triggering you in your current relationships? 🤔 *** Look at how you showed up in the world and relationships in childhood. Get in touch with that nonjudgmental, carefree, joyful approach to life again! ☮️ *** Be creative in life and in love. Show up by being fully present and expressing your authentic self! There is much we can learn from a child’s mindset towards life. *** What are your triggers in relationships- be they romantic or platonic? How are you choosing to express your love and authenticity? What would giving and receiving without expectations feel like? Comment below to create harmonious relationships in your life! 👇🏻 *** Cosmic Tarot Deck *** Schedule a tarot reading & coaching session!
