Again, I'm not sure what site I got this from, but I thought it was beautiful...
Take a meditation-nap
Write yourself a
permission slip… What do you need to give yourself permission for?
Create something
just for you…
Have a green
smoothie! Greens are good for the soul AND our moods!
Reach out to
five people and tell them how much you love them and are grateful for
them.…
Stand outside
when it is sunset or sunrise… the colours and light will heal your
chakras and energy…
Go for a drive
to a place you haven’t been before… Even if it’s just a road,
park, shop or river. Let your spirit see new things!
Switch
off for the day and remember joys which are
screen-free.
Write your
Things
to do This Life list.
Write a love
letter to the Goddess in You.
Give away or
donate three things you own that don’t make you feel magical.
Watch inspiring
movies
… or watch
ridiculous 1980′s comedies or silly romantic-comedies or kid’s
movies… feel good movies!
Dream up,
organise and host a gathering of goddesses.
Make a raw
dessert.
Find a place you
can have a campfire. You don’t have to camp out all night… just
stay for the best bits of fire-gazing and marshmallow-burning!
Mark in your
calendar an LBW. My hunky invented these – Lazy Bastard Weekends. A
weekend where you have total permission to do as little as possible.
In pyjamas. Then nap. It’s muchos healing and restorative!
Ask your Mama to
tell you your birth story.
Whenever I am in
need of healing, I read SARK’s Transformation
Soup. It’s my favourite of hers to bring joy,
healing & rejuvenation into my life. Sparkle SARKle!
Get a reading by
someone you either know already, or who comes recommended. Readings
always help me get back on track again when I lose my way.
Go swimming.
Even if swimming just means sitting in the spa at your local health
club. That totally counts!
Drink more
water. Chances are you are dehydrated. Love your friendly water
police!
Stop complaining
for today. Start saying you are AWESOME… You will begin to feel it!
Give your
crystals a good cleansing with water and salt, sunlight or moonlight.
Decide to
forgive someone.
See if you can
find music you were obsessed by as a kid or teen. (My sisters know
all the words to the Lion King soundtrack! I was more in love with
Rick Price, Ace of Bass and Joshua Kadison). Listen to them again…
maybe even sing a long!
Make a pile of
your favourite healing books and lie in amongst them.
Find a crystal
and make it your healing crystal. Keep it in your pocket during the
day, sleep beside it at night. Let it become a beloved companion!
Amethyst, jade and green calcite are especially good healers, but
trust your intuition as to what YOU need!
Thank someone
from your past who was special to you. (I once wrote a letter to my
fourth grade teacher Miss Collins thanking her for making a gifted
and talented writers class and asking me along. That class meant so
much to me!)
Make space in
your life for magic to enter by doing some divine decluttering!
Go on a retreat.
One that’s run by you, or a group one. Retreats are oh so good!
Organise a
breakfast date with your favourite person.
Decide on a new
hobby to play with that you haven’t tried before… Horse riding!
Scrap booking! Disco bowling! Knitting! Ice skating! Creative
writing! Ze possibilities are endless…
Cuddle a puppy
or meow-meow.
Marry yourself.
Find your totem
animal.
Go have a book
picnic outside and get distracted by the clouds!
Create an altar
that feels supportive, uplifting and inspiring… a collection of all
the lovely things you want to remind yourself of…
Create a gift
basket for your best friend.
Take 100 deep
breaths. One after the other.
Write on a piece
of paper what you are willing to let go of. Burn it.
Make one new
friend for the day – who cares if it is online or offline.
Connection is goooood!
Make your
bedroom into a sanctuary.
Give yourself a
superhero name for ze day! I am Queen Megatron! I can bounce with the
power of a thousand pogo sticks and a hundred Tiggers!
Take yourself on
an Artists Date for lunch!
Let someone else
decide what book you should read next.
Paint an angel
and put it beside your bed.
Write letters.
The kind that need stamps. Apply stickers by ze boatload. Embrace
your inner penpalling eleven year old self!
Play dress-ups.
Sleep in the
moonlight – either keep your curtains open or sleep outside. Or if
you can’t do either – step outside for a moment before going to
bed just to say goodnight to Grandmother Moon.
Take a media
break.
Write a list of
your own favourite ways to heal and get sparkly again…
Ready?
Set! Go! Time to create magic!!
Such magical advice from one Goddess to another!
ReplyDeleteI love to read your blog because you are a little "quirky", just like me. How many people out there start the day by balancing their chakras and cleansing their aura? I do. Even knowing what that means makes you a little quirky:)

p.s I turn 45 next week, and you have inspired me to consider 46 things I will do before I turn 46.
Ok
