It’s time to get over the fear of aging

…f I let the lines tell the story then I will simply stop and spend my days searching for the next big elixir of life. Like the Queen in Snow White. We all know the hatred and jealousy that consumed her days. Did you see the bleakness that surrounded her? She missed out on life, on love, on joy.

How to get the holiday look right

…e. I’m so super impressed with the clothes and service that SequinsandSand.com.au offers. I’ve been poking around there for the past few weeks sussing out how I can further feel comfortable and stylish on the road. The only problem is, is now I want to ditch Australia for exotic locations like the Maldives or the Mediterranean.

It’s temporary. Usually it only lasts a minute or two. Breathe, and let it pass.” I’ve aware of my resistance and I have been practicing watching it and letting it pass. The urge does disappear and soon you’ll find yourself doing strange things like ignoring…

Dreaming of Orbs

…live from a higher place. Others believe it is the energy of those passed communicating with us. I have been working so much lately on improving my state of mind and to tap into the magic that I AM and as everyone else is. Surrounded by Orbs Source: shadyrady.tumblr.com via amanda on Pinterest I felt as if the Universe was sending me a message in my dreams to rid my mind of that nasty self-doubt. This stuff is real. Magic does exist and it really…
