Manifesting What I Desire

So today I had one of those mornings where I hug myself and say "thank you for choosing this path." I started my day off awake before my children, which for some reason, always helps me begin my day a bit more balanced.

Yesterday, I set an intention (thanks to the guidance of Jennifer Urezzio at Know Soul's Language) to set aside 15 minutes for meditation as part of my self-care regimen. I completely forgot to make room for this today and yet the Universe still delivered! Awake 15 minutes before the baby, I made time to breathe, properly awaken and set some goals.

What this allowed for me was the opportunity to laugh and play with my kids over breakfast; and to embrace my husband with love and care before he departed for a business trip. Does this sound easy to you? Not so for me, normally. Mornings in my house are vicious.

My work day began with a coaching call with a client who is making a profound difference in her own community. I am so lucky that I get to be both an observer and a participant in her growth process. Brainstorming together new ideas for her business and ways for her to communicate her message to the world, I hesitate to say publicly, does not feel like work, it's fun!

My next stop was to Mia Cose Bella in South Orange, NJ: A unique gift shop whose offerings include hand blown glass, handmade pottery and jewelry from local artists and artisans. Mia Cose Bella hosted a Space Clearing workshop by Maia Gilman, who also was launching her new line of room sprays.

I looked around the room, filled with men and women from my community, many of them healers and many inspiring contributors to the towns in which they live. Remember that hug I mentioned? Walking into this room was like walking into one big, warm hug.

I shared a version of this sentiment with Rita Desnoyers-Garcia, who is well-versed in manifesting the life you desire, because this is what she does day in and day out, for herself and for others as a coach. The conversation was a gentle reminder of another intention I commited to, but had not yet fulfilled, which was to broadcast my desires to the universe. Ask and you shall receive. More on that below.

To top it all off, I enjoyed lunch with fellow health and wellness afficionado, Judie Hurtado, who speaks my language and shares my love of manifesting.

So, Universe, here goes:

I AM ATTRACTING:
Love
Light
Ease
Expansion

I AM ATTRACTING PEOPLE WHO:
Want to hear my message
Bring beauty into my life
Move me forward
Provide me with possibility and great opportunity
Support me in my mission to exact change

I AM ATTRACTING LOTS AND LOTS OF MASSAGE.
