I lovingly present to you!

Okay! Crazy wonderful week! I had my first student earlier in the week. And was on cloud nine...but I have even more wonderful news to share with you all!

The next day I launched my web site for Awakening Goddess, and ordered my very first business cards! I'm super excited! I've gotten some wonderful feed back already from some friends.

I invite you to www.awakeninggoddess.com

Thank you everyone for your love and support! If you feel moved, I invite your comments on the guest book and to spread the message of Awakening Goddess!

It's my dream to inspire all women to be fully who they are and accept their own wisdom, beauty, grace, and power!

It's Official!!

Wow!!! Wow!!! Wow!!! Thank you Universe for making me wealthy! I am proud to announce that Awakening Goddess officially had it's first solo client/student!

I am on cloud nine! I met a beautiful Goddess for an hour. We opened with a heart connection dyad we each asked each other three questions "Tell me a thought in your mind? Tell me a feeling in your body? and Tell me a feeling in your heart?" Then I asked her why was I there? What did she want to get out of the session.

We did some stretching, and then body isolation movements. We took our time and she did amazing. Then we moved into some zoning. Again, we played with the zones and took our time. I showed her one of the performances that I had done at the Sun and Salsa festival back in July "Take Control". She thought it was really great.

To close the evening we did the same dyad, the three questions, her responses were very different to what she had said earlier at the start of the evening.

We only did one hour of a session. We are going to meet again next week! I am super excited!

It's inspiring for me to see the change in even one hour with the Goddess I was working with. I love to inspire others! Hence my purpose of Awakening Goddess! To inspire women to be fully who they are and accept their own wisdom, beauty, grace and power!

It's what I do that I love! I saw a quote that my parents sent me from Hawaii, it is "let what you do, be what you love!" And I love dancing and inspiring others! It brings me such joy! Even I go so far to say outrageous joy! It is my purpose/gift of love/passion for the world! And I'm not going to stop!

Find below three pictures, two of me from the May Burlesque Gala, and one of me and my amazing teacher the sexy Di Lefebvre! Who I owe so much too! So much love and gratitude to you Miss Di!

I am booking my photo shoot very soon, within the next couple of weeks I hope!

Flow of the Feminine

So over these past two weeks, I've had lots going on. Last weekend (Aug. 13 - 15) I attended the amazing Groovy Goddess Weekend, at a fellow Goddess Sister's house. We had lots of fun, connecting, replenishing our feminine hearts, and enjoying being in each others company.

It was so peaceful to just be able to go with the flow and do what I felt like doing. If I wanted to rest I did, if I wanted to swim, I did, if I wanted to dance I did. There was no agenda at all for the entire weekend. The only things that were set was who was preparing the meals and what we were preparing. The group I was with, was on breakfast for Saturday. We prepared pancakes, bacon, and fruit. It was wonderful. We all took care of each other and ourselves all at the same time.

We didn't have any set official practices, but many women had things come up and worked them through in arms of their Sisters. It was beautiful and magical to witness and support my Sisters, and to be supported by them when I had things come up during the weekend. I feel honoured and blessed to be apart of the weekend.

I know that the power of the feminine is amazing, healing, magical, and life force its self. Mother Goddess can turn your world upside down in 2 seconds flat. Never underestimate the power of the feminine. Both Mother Goddess and yourself! You are a powerful, magical Goddess! You can flow down the peaceful river, but also create waves of great power!

It's a thrilling experience to feel the excitement of energy buzzing through my veins when I get really creative, or a great idea comes up. For example, I've booked my first client for Awakening Goddess. I will be inspiring one Goddess to be fully who she is and accept her own wisdom, beauty, grace, and power!

Memories from childhood that bring you to smile!

Sitting here in a local coffee shop this morning it is raining. When I was coming into the coffee shop it hadn't started to rain yet. Although I knew it had, by the puddles on the ground, but more importantly there was an aroma in the air that I could tell it had rained during the over night.

The aroma that was in the air took me back to my childhood. I was a flood of memories from when I was in Girl Guides and camping. It was the same aroma that I would smell after it had just rained. I thought about being a girl again, being out in nature camping. Soaking up all that was around me. It was a happy time, to be in nature. I was reminded of being surrounded by trees, the water, and the beauty of Mother Nature.

There are other memories that I have that are only brought on by specific aroma's. For example when I am visiting my family back home in Ontario, sometimes Mum will make porridge on the stove. The aroma of the oats cooking on the stove remind me from when I was little, and she would do the same thing.

Or perhaps it's a memory from something you see? When I see little girls playing/exploring out in a park, in nature, it reminds me when I was a little girl, being out in nature in a forest with my father. We would go and collect fire wood for our wood burning stove that we had. I would spend more time exploring the tree's looking for places where fairy's live or woodland creatures like squirls or chipmunks. I would help my Dad yes, but I was more concerned about finding houses for the animals and fairy's.

Another happy memory that is sprung from seeing others is again when I see little girls dancing/twirling in space. I am reminded of when I took ballet lessons as a young girl. I had so much fun dancing wearing the pretty costumes that had all the sparkles.

And now I am dancing still, but instead of sparkles and sequins, I have feathers! It is such a rewarding experience to be dancing again. I have women come up to me after they see me dance, and ask how do I do it? There are many women who see me dance who want to dance like myself and the others in my dance troop but are either to afraid to do so, or don't think they can dance. Goddesses! Let me tell you a little secret....if you can walk, you can dance! Just move your body to the music, feel the music in your heart, and let your body move to it!

Open to LOVE

Okay, I'm back.....and I am open to LOVE are you? I was at an event called Awakening of the WarriorSage. It is an event all about personal power and breaking through fears to live the way you want too. Be it open to love, freedom, power, all of the above!

I had the true honour and pleasure to be apart of a team of amazing Warriors for three days. I served them well and the amazing participants as well. It was my role to set the scene for the participants each day. To ready them for their task at hand it was a serious task, that would take them to their death and back. We were playing with dark energy, energy that can be very scary for some. I know when I participated in this event back in 2007, the last thing I wanted to do was be in that dark energy for 5 hours! I cried the entire time.

Many participants broke through amazing barriers or fears that they had. The Warriors that I served were amazing with the participants. Seeing into each participant seeing what buttons to push to get them to break out of their fear and into love! It was beautiful to be apart of to witness the transformations.

Who will you fight for? Who will you die for? Who will you live for? Who will you protect when you are faced with your dark demons? Who will suffer if you are not here on this planet?

Where in your life are you not open to love? Can you be open to love, even in the darkest times? I know for myself when I've gone through some crazy dark times in my life, the last thing I want to do is open to love. But then I stop and breathe, even if I can just open just a little 2% more then I've accomplished something.

I want to encourage you Sister, to open to love, even just a tiny bit more, just 2% more. Come on out of your shell a bit. See the world from the eyes of love!

Find below a picture of the Warriors and myself from our Gala night from the seminar. These fine men are amazing. I trust them with my life. And for me that is saying something!

Be Happy Gosh Darn It!!!

Goddesses!!! If you can't find something to be happy about in your day, then I strongly encourage you to do so! I just finished getting my oil changed and tire fixed at a Kal Tire here in the city. When I went to pay I found out that the fee to get the tire fixed was free! I was so happy to hear that! The guy at the counter just laughed, and I said to him that we need to find the little things that make us happy!

And it makes me laugh, because it is just a little thing but it made me happy. And if I can't find something to be happy about, then I'm not living!

As I said yesterday in my blog post, I've been in a really good mood for the past week. And it just keeps getting better. I am saying "YES" to the Universe, yes to myself. Because you can always say yes to yourself. You don't have to explain yourself. That is one that I'm still rembering to practice. I am remaining open to the Universe, to spirit, to source. To keep me going on the right path. I feel like I'm on the right path, I'm vibrating with energy, excitement, and also grounded in my own wisdom that I know what to do, and everything will be just perfect if I just let go, and let love in. Which is can for me be a struggle at times. For me to relax and let go, can be hard for many.

I just remind myself to keep breathing, softening the front surface of my body and know that I'm being held by the Great Mother.

Find below a movie that I found on youtube that always makes me smile! It's a Happy Dance!

Growth

Wow!!!! What a week I've had!!! So much great things have been appearing in my life! I am over come with emotion of gratitude, love, and passion! So much growth is happening in all areas of my life, and I'm riding the roller coaster of life, and not letting go!

On Monday I found out that I was to start my new job. I was training Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Today (Friday) I was back at the day care one last time. I miss the kids, but this will be a great step in my growth in the working realm of my life.

I loving my new job, it's going to be so great to be supporting families going through a struggle.

I'm also feeling lots of gratitude for the opportunity to be dancing this coming Sunday at the Sun and Salsa Festival here in my home town. I'll be dancing two numbers with fellow members of the Sizzle Girls. One dance has just five of us, and the other has 13 of us. It's been on my vision board to perform with the Sizzle Girls, yes, but the next step was to perform at a festival. And that's going to be happening! And I can't wait!

With Awakening Goddess, I've had positive responses from women who've I spoken with. I am so grateful and proud all at the same time to let you all know that I've been invited to speak/inspire/dance at an event here in my home town for women only. It's called "Heart Open to the Max" Ladies night on Aug. 5. To be in a room full of women, inspiring them to live their life to be fully who they are and accept their own wisdom, beauty, grace, and power will be an amazing experience for me.

I am excited for this opportunity. There are so many people to thank along this journey. My dance teacher Di especially for teaching me everything I know about Burlesque dancing. My spiritual teachers Suzanne, Satyen, and the entire Sr. Staff team of WarriorSage for teaching me about living my passion, and how to figure out what my passion is. My parents who wish for me to be happy. Well you know what Mum and Dad? I AM happy. I am truly happy when I'm living my passion. To be dancing and inspiring other women to dance in this ride called life.

Where are you growing in your life? Where are you stuck and need a push? To grow is to have courage to step out of your comfort zone and live the way you want to live!

Find below a beautiful mini movie that I found on you-tube. It's all about growth and living! Very powerful!
