Notes From My Journal | Brain Dump!
Hi! As I was brainstorming about what to write for you today, my mind kept traveling to random journal entries that could serve as inspiration or little pick-me-ups. From notes I’ve taken while reading, to little epiphanies I’ve had in the shower, this post is basically a random collection of thoughts from my journal. Hopefully, you find a little nugget in here that will help you on your journey!
A miracle is a change in perception.
“Your life right now is a result of what you did a year ago. Your life a year from now will be a result of what you do right now. Successful people are not perfect - they have bad habits, health problems, imperfect routines, imposter syndrome…but they know that’s normal; that’s the difference.” - @Steven on IG
The pain-body is the emotional aspect of the ego and can influence negative thinking. Getting to the root of the issue on a subconscious and deeply emotional level (while committing to healing) is where we evolve.
So much of my anxiety has come from seeing myself as “other”…not belonging to a tribe…being an outcast. I was reminded today that I am never alone. I am one of 7.5 billion souls having a human experience. It’s about adapting to a room and knowing that I’ll click with some souls, and some souls won’t resonate because they are walking a path best suited for them. It’s okay if their path doesn’t align with mine - I can honor and accept that while still knowing that I am innately worthy of love and I am valuable.

Freewriting // Summer in Maine :
The specs of light peeking through a midnight blanket challenge every notion of self. Their silence is my silence. Their mystery is my mystery. How does the Universe fit inside me? If I am a mirror, then my mother, father, sister are slides of light bouncing off ancestral mirrors and creating their own. We reflect one another, expose one another, marvel at one another…

Getting to know my spirit guides…I asked them to reveal themselves to me in a meditation. A Native American chief, someone who reminded me of Gandhi, and Jesus came through. I’ve met them all before on a psychedelic journey when I was standing on the ruins of an old monastery... but I just keep seeing them without receiving clear messages. Loving on that and opening myself up to receive more and more. Learning to trust the initial ‘download’ in meditation.
The ego swings in both directions, telling us we’re the best at something or the worst. The humble person acknowledges that each person carries a ‘better’ quality than them, and is open to learning and celebrating others. In the same way, the humble person can acknowledge their own strengths but the comparison is dropped.
Ask for what you desire, let go of the “how”, show up for the process, and trust with patience.
Activation Vibration Mantra: Everything is working out best-case scenario. Everything is working out best-case scenario. Everything is working out best-case scenario. Everything is working out best-case scenario. Everything is working out best-case scenario. Everything is working out best-case scenario.
Our cells hear everything we say. Our bodies are physical manifestations of the way we speak to ourselves. Saying ‘I love you’ in the mirror, blessing the food we eat, speaking directly to our cells…this is where the magic is. Love is the answer, always.
