Infinite potential

"Run with the wolves, fake it till you make it"

"When you allow old habits to die a natural death, you make room for the possibility of a new life. Let go of outdated thoughts of lack and fear, for those hold you back from new opportunities. Life is too short to not take risks, trust you intuition and follow you bliss. When you walk the path within, you cultivate your highest potential."

- J. Bardsley

If you can imagine it, you can create it.
If you dream it, you can become it."

William- Arthur

"Vision without action is a daydream.
Action without vision is a nightmare".

- Japanese Proverb

"Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens".

-Carl Jung

Creative Energy

"When you are inspired by some great purpose,
some extraordinary project,
all your thoughts break their bond.
Your mind transcends limitations,
your consciousness expands in every direction,
and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world.
Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive,
and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be."


- Patanjali

Trust Yourself


"There is a force within that gives you life - seek that.
In your body there lies a priceless jewel - seek that.
Oh, wondering sufi; if you are in search of the greatest treasure, don't look outside,
look within, and seek that."

-Rumi


"Trust your instinct to the end, though you can see no reason."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Conscious Living

Each day, well-lived, makes yesterday a dream of happiness and each tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look, therefore, to this one day, for it alone is life.

-Sanskrit Poem

Non Judgment


















Learn to let go of the burden of judgments, condemnation and criticism.
Embrace the notion that your judgments are always fundamentally about you and not the other person.
We are constantly creating circumstances and conditions in our lives that will help us to see ourselves more clearly.

-Isha Lerner

Initiation

"How shall I begin my song in the blue night that is setting?
In the great night my heart will go out;
toward me the darkness comes,
rattling in the great night my heart will go out!"

Love

One regret, dear world, that I am determined not to have when I am lying on my death bed is that I did not kiss you enough.

Compassion


Kind words can be short and easy to speak,
but their echoes are truly endless.

-Mother Teresa

""Always witness people with kind eyes, that gentleness will return to you tenfold."

Letting go of fear

True

goodness,

This is compassion

Be completely empty of fear

Be completely open to love

Return to the root of peace, and know that you are held with gentleness

There is something that contains everything - Life

To live until you die, is to live long enough -Tao Te Ching

Body Acceptance



Today I give thanks for my beautiful body. I witness the gorgeous curves that reveal my femininity. My body glows from within, with a light that anchors me to this world. It is filled with a knowing that sweet strength is always flowing from my being. Nobody else in the Universe has a body like mine, with skin luminous and eyes that sparkle. My body holds a mighty capacity for creation of new life, new ideas and new rapture. I love my body and all the brilliance it shines forth to the world.

Strength


There is a growing strength in women, but it is in the forehead, not the forarm.

-Beverly Sills


Our greatest glory is not ever failing,
but rising up everything we fail.

-
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Intention...

  • I focus my mind on what I want
  • I am specific with every detail.
  • I let go of fear and negative thoughts ( the mind doesn't distinguish between dreams and fears).
  • I command the Universe to respond to my goals.
  • I stay clear about my intention.
  • I write my intention on paper and speak it aloud.
  • My brain is a goal-driven by nature - therefore ready for this challenge, and willing to take action for success.

Abundance is unfolding...

I open myself to the Abundance flowing from the universe to me effortlessly. All that I need in unfolding under perfect flow. I give thanks that this energy to coming to me now with ease, and I witness all the gifts in my life. I give thanks that all doors are open to me under grace. I am worthy of this abundance that is coming to me with no strings attached. All good things are unfolding all around me with love and joy.


My decision to be an Artist and develop my own style has been Years of hard work and surrender. I believe that my paintings have their own energy an spirit. In part, I see my art work as a visual affirmation for my life. I have much gratitude to unfold images that are in my heart.
