LETTING GRATITUDE BE YOUR NUMBER ONE GUIDE TO TRANSFORMATION
I truly want you to trust a new life is beginning for you. So much old programming is clearing out of your life and new powerful loving energy is entering. Are you ready? The last few months we have been shining the light of love on all the parts of our nature. I know it’s hard, when life is hurting to have faith, you can and will rise, but I promise you as you meet your fears with love, your heart will soften, and your energy will lift.
In my coaching practice, particularly when people are feeling overwhelmed, I always introduce gratitude practices. Why? Because gratitude is the fastest and easiest way to change your life. When we acknowledge our blessings, it changes our mindset. Bringing a little wonder to our worry is transformative. We can always find reasons to be thankful. As part of my client’s change process, I simply ask them to journal ten blessings in their life each day, filling in the blanks:
I am so grateful for _______________ It makes feel so _________________

You Can Heal Your Life, Money & Relationships!
I am so excited to working from the beautiful Green Door Centre, formerly the Hamblin Trust. It will be wonderful if you can make this day. On this Discover Your True Self Transformational Retreat Day you will learn to reprogram your subconscious mind and make quantum leaps in your life. Together, we will harness your inner power to unleash supercharged healing in your life and rewire your subconscious programming to magnetise the life of your dreams into reality!
Doing this, you feel your body shift, that brilliant softening of your nervous system, gently activating the relaxation response. It’s gorgeous and it truly elevates your life, we forget the power of gratitude and all the things we have to be grateful for. It’s time to remember. I know it will change your attitude and you will be celebrating every day when you get grateful right now, even for things that have not yet materialised!
It is so easy for you to forget your successes and just move on to the next thing. It’s important you take stock each day, week, month and recognise just how far you have come. Honour what you have achieved, give thanks for how resilient you are and most importantly, love yourself. Let’s be grateful for another day of living, for all the wonderful people in our lives, and let’s be grateful that we can lean into our Soul and feel the full Presence of infinity in our lovely finite body.
A rule of thumb in transforming our thinking is that we practice for 21 days. Let gratitude be your antidote in a challenging situation! You can look for things to be grateful for in any relationship challenge. I just love looking for the things to be grateful for in any situation, it really does take the sting and pain out of what I am feeling.
In fact, in my work, I found that whether that person is a husband or wife, sibling or family, business partner or client, friend or neighbour when faced with a difficult relationship or a challenging situation gratitude helps. If we flick off the ‘Blame’ switch and turn on the light of ‘Compassion,’ we can find something to be grateful for in that relationship – even when it’s ended!
Powering Presence to connect with our inner powerful Soul self is key because our gorgeous Sole personality with its hurting heart is not up to the job! Being curious about our hurting parts can give us a little distance to start this process. Instead of being busy blaming the other person for all our problems, gratitude helps us bring insight to our hurting heart.
Let gratitude uplift your spirit, helping you trust and surrender to the boundless love of the universe. Let gratitude, saturate every cell, every atom of your being. Elevating your vibrational frequency, healing your physical body and soothing away worries of your mind.
POWERING SOLAR PRESENCE
Get yourself comfortable, just breathing comfortably imagine with every breath you breathe in your breathe in relaxation and positivity. Imagine you are the central sun of your life, filled with radiant golden light. The planets around you are your children, friends, colleagues, and connections. As you radiate more light you light up the people around you and balance and harmony align in your world. You and everyone you know are becoming more elevated in elevation of your thoughts and feelings.
Allow joy to permeate every atom of your being. You are transforming; the light of love is alive in your heart, mind and body. Your Soul is home, and you are lighter feeling happier, peaceful and at ease. This is your time to be nourished, to find serenity in your life and feel the peace. You can stop and just be in love!
