Inside Out Blog

Welcome back beauties!         I am so happy to have you here today, thank you for stopping by! The reason I'm so happy to have you here is because today's topic is a deep, challenging one that almost everyone struggles with, and that is self love. Why does everyone struggle so much with this? What are the underlying issues that cause such a lack of self love? The answers to this are deeply rooted in our societal conditioning- what we have chosen to believe about ourselves handed down to us from the past, and then continually enabled by those around us, creating a strong status quo that is faced with much resistance if not upheld. To find someone who truly loves themselves unconditionally is like finding a rare gem, you don't see it that often and everyone wants to attain that glow... that radiance... that happiness for themselves too. These people have a genuine, healthy and deep respect for themselves which no one can seem to touch. So what's the secret? ...

Hello Everyone!         So for today I wanted to share with you a fun and exciting experience I had a few weeks ago. On November 11th, I attended the 11th Annual Natural Living Expo in Marlborough Massachusetts. I was invited to go by a friend back in September, so I had been looking forward to it for a while. I got there first thing in the morning at 8am. There was a buzz in the air... with lots of people setting things up and getting ready for the big weekend for all the fun stuff the expo had planned for us. The first 200 people got a free little bag with a magazine and bottle of water. Not the "goodie bag" I expected, but hey it was free!        The expo was held in a different parts of a hotel. One section held over 1000 exhibits and a tent with vegan and healthy food carts and eating area. Then you had to take a shuttle to the section where the workshops were being held. I first checke...

Welcome back everyone!         So today I want to share something fun with you that I did recently, and that is use feng shui when getting a brand new wallet. And I am super excited about it! I love and believe in feng shui, and have heard that you can use it in your wallet also. Your wallet is an important place in relation to your money. If there are ways to help me attract more money into my life that are as simple as "feng shuing" my wallet, why not give it a try? So I want to share my experience with this and how you can do it too.         If you are not exactly sure what feng shui is, let me help you out by starting there. The dictionary defines "feng shui" as:" In (Chinese thought) a system of laws considered to govern spatial arrangement and orientation in relation to the flow of energy (qi), and whose favorable or unfavorable effects are taken into account when siting and designing buildi...

Welcome back all you lovely people! So today I want to share with you an experience that was a delightful new discovery! A few weeks ago, I was given a nightlight with chucks of pink Himalayan rock salt in it. Well upon hearing the many benefits of p ink H imalayan s alt ( PHS ), I decided to put a few of the chunks into the bath with me to see what all the big fuss was about. I soaked in the tub for a hour or so and it was super relaxing and rejuvenating. The magic happened when I got out of the bath and began to really feel the effects of my soak. I felt so much more lighter, cleansed, and even healed! Being energy sensitive, I felt an energetic shift, resonating more with positive and happier energies. Physically I felt as if I could move easier, and felt a deeper sense of balance and well being. I felt like a new person! Before, I was feeling irritated, heavy, had trouble breathing, and was physically aching all over. I have PCOS, and my pelvic area felt surprisingly much bett...

Hello again lovely ones!         Today I want to teach you about the Archangel Jophiel, and how and when you can call upon her for any beauty related endeavors. Like all Archangels, each of which have a specific purpose, Archangel Jophiel is the Archangel of beauty and so her name means "beauty of God".  So anything beauty related is her specialty, and I guess what you could say she is an 'expert' in.  When I say that she overlooks beauty related fields, I mean in a wide range. She helps to things from makeup and clothing choices, or beautifying and lifting up your thoughts, to implementing feng shui and helping create a clean, harmonious, and gorgeous living environment for you.  AAJophiel's main color that she is associated with is pink, and sometimes pink with gold. So if you see flashes of pink in your mind's eye, or notice yourself naturally feeling drawn to those colors lately, then it is likely that she is trying to get your atte...

Hello again everyone!         OK so for today's post I want to talk about how to be happy with what you've got and where you are right now... and how doing that makes you absolutely beautiful. I know, it seems very hard to do right now. I know that many of you are facing insecurities about your body and appearance, but I am here to help you through this by giving you insights and teaching you to how to heal yourself. We all know that happiness is very attractive to everyone, so why not choose to be happy right now? If you come up with a list of reasons, then you will always come up with a list of reasons. They will keep changing and adding on. Trust me, I know, I've been there! When someone had asked me that question, why not be happy now, I responded that I will only be happy once I've reached my goal weight. My friend had said "then you will never be happy, you have to be happy now". I argued with her saying, "no I will!" But she was right. Even...

Hello again Bloggers!         OK for today's post, I want to talk a bit about the advice and information that are put out in women's magazines. I think that it's important to address this content because it's what's being distributed to the general public, and thousands, if not millions, of people are absorbing and using the information that is in these magazines. And the information and advice in most of these magazines (not all), at least in my personal opinion, is being used as a tool to control the behaviors of women, and giving them unhealthy and incorrect advice on subjects that women take and use in their personal lives. I've noticed this ever since I was a teenager, being able to spot unhealthy advice and wondering why and how that even got into the print . Even though magazines are great for inspiration and showing new creative trends, sometimes it's best to take what they say with a grain of salt. So I just want to create a hyper awareness of this...

Hello again everyone!         For today's post I want to talk about perspectives on weight, and how we let that affect how we view and define ourselves. This is certainly a topic that I have personally struggled with the most, out of all my topics so far, since I was a preteen. Unfortunately many other people also share my struggles with weight, especially since it's such a focus topic in our society, whether it's discussing the struggles and trying to find solutions, or praising and idolizing other's for their "perfect" bodies. The term "weight loss" still may catch your eye, but now relates to high hopes and disappointments, since we have tried it all, and no permanent solution has worked. But with a glimmer of hope and yearning desire to lose weight, you try again. I know, I've been there too! The endless cycle of trying and failing, making you start to think and believe that your ideal weight is truly impossible to achieve. But I've rec...

Welcome back my beautiful bloggers!         OK so for today’s post I want address the topic of anti-aging, and discuss ways that we can change our views on this process in terms of beauty and how we let it affect inner and outer-selves. I feel that it is important to address this because it is such a huge concern to women in our society. It has become extreme in the sacrifices that some women are making in order to avoid the physical effects of aging in terms of fine lines and wrinkles. Well first of all, you cannot avoid the physical effects of aging.  It is impossible… we are made of flesh not plastic. You can try, but nature does and will always win. So stop stressing about it! Don’t try to control things that are beyond your power. Now I’m going to do the opposite of that. I’m going to ask you to embrace this inevitable process. ‘Embrace it?!’ You may say?…Yes, you heard me, embrace your aging. Resisting it will only cause you further pain. So let go. And...
