Today's meditation

Pick an object – any object … a knickknack, a flower, a rock.
Now simply focus your gaze on it.
Don’t think about anything else for 3 - 5 minutes.
Breathe – in and out.
Set a timer or just set your inner clock and when you feel you are done, you are done.
That’s it.

Did you feel a little bit of calm, a sense of peace, a quieting of your mind?
That’s it! That is a very good reason to meditate!
Do it whenever you want to center yourself.

With great love, Suzanne

Meditation - Is it for you?

For me, meditation is all about having a few moments of stillness.
Maybe it is to take a few moments and find stillness several times throughout the day.
Our mind races with billions of thoughts in every minute.
How can we enjoy our day and this moment if we have a billion thoughts racing around our head? Meditation helps with this.

How would you like to feel just a little more focused?
Stop and meditate for a few moments several times in your day.
Stop and center yourself. That’s meditation.
Clear your mind. That’s meditation.

How well does it work? Well how often can you do it?
We don’t need a special spot to meditate we just need to remember to stop for a few minutes wherever we are, whatever we are doing. Breathe in and breathe out consciously.
You will find yourself feeling more refreshed, energized and focused.

Living our dream is not about entertaining a billion thoughts at one time.
Living our dream is about enjoying each moment in our lives – focusing on the things that are important to us and leaving the rest for someone else to enjoy.
We can experience many of our dreams with a just a little meditation.
Powerful and easy isn’t it?

With great love, Suzanne

Is there a cost to not living your dream?

What is your dream?
How would you feel to not live your dream?
How would you feel mentally and physically?

Does it really matter to you one way or the other?
For example - How do you feel about the thought of achieving it or not right now?

If you were to not live your dream …
Would you be missing something important in your life?

How would everyone else feel?
Would they be missing something?
Sometimes our dreams affect other people.

Sometimes we need to act no matter what our fears because otherwise the cost is too great.
That said each of us has to decide for ourselves whether we really want the dream we say we do. Because that could change everything right?

With great love, Suzanne

What to do when life doesn't seem perfect

What can we do when life doesn’t seem perfect?

We could go back to bed … we could complain a lot … we can get sad and depressed ….
Do any of these sound positive or productive to you? I know the go back to bed one does!

I have another suggestion – we can simply stop focusing on what we don’t think is perfect.
If we really think about it, there is plenty in our life and the world that is great.
With the Law of Attraction – we get more of what we focus on right?

This is not a gloss over – put a happy face sticker on everything kind of thing.
This is a let go of whatever is not working and concentrate on what is working deal.

I guarantee that we will now find more and more that is perfect in our lives and the world.
We can make all kinds of positive changes from this viewpoint.
Ah, now it is feeling more like our dream life doesn’t it?
It’s all about focus. Where is yours?

With great love, Suzanne

Dream vs. Fantasy

A fantasy is something we never expect to attain in our life.
We feel it is only possible for someone else or perhaps not even possible at all.

A dream is something that actually feels like it could be possible to us.
In fact, it seems so possible that we are willing to put some effort and focus on achieving it.

Do you have a dream or a fantasy?

Don’t be upset that you don’t have your fantasy because it is something you never intended to have. A dream on the other hand is very possible, very possible indeed.

With great love, Suzanne

Go for it!

What are the things that you desire for your life?
Make a list of all the big and little things you desire in your life.
Do they sound awesome? I bet they do.

Now pick something from your list and …. Go for it.
Start today.
What inspirations to achieve it come to mind?
Dismiss nothing.
Do something toward one of your goals or dreams today.
Whether it is a big or little dream – complicated or simple – it does not matter.
Just go for it.

I will be one of your cheerleaders.
Just let me know what you require.
Do you need a wakeup call every morning?
Do you need to be told you are perfection and can have everything you desire?
Do you need some help finding the map to your dreams?

I am here to empower and cheer you on.
Just let me know if you need some help.
With me or without me – just go for it!
You will be so happy you did.

With great love, Suzanne

Pop into fun

What could you do for some spur of the moment fun?
Call some friends for a party … take a road trip … book a flight for tomorrow …
What pops into your head? Would you do it?

Living life spur of the moment can be fun.
Sometimes our dreams are lived spur of the moment.

You never know when some spur of the moment fun will be offered – so be ready.
Practice saying – okay! I’m in!

Always be ready. And if the fun doesn’t come to you – create some for yourself and others.
Live life – live the dream – yep, sometimes it’s just spur of the moment.
That’s the way uh huh uh huh we like it …..

With great love, Suzanne

Are you really living life?

What is living life to you?
What does it mean to be alive?
Is it simply the fact you are breathing?
Isn’t there more to living?

What makes living worthwhile for you?
What brings you joy?
What is important in your life?
Are you living with your focus on what is important to you?
Are you enjoying what is important to you in life?

Put what is important to you front and center in your life.
The rest is just window dressing.
Now we are getting closer to living that dream.

With great love, Suzanne

What can we give?

What can we give?

Can we give love, a hug, a smile, understanding, patience, our time ….?
Who needs some help today?

What if we simply focus on being of service to others?

Many times our needs are satisfied simply because we gave something to someone else.
Love, a hug, a smile, understanding, patience, our time ….

What can you give today?
Let’s give whatever we can, wherever we can and see how it feels.
Many a dream life starts with the simple act of giving.

With great love, Suzanne

What do you enjoy? Do it!

Why not do it more often?
Make a list of the things you enjoy doing and then…
Do them.

Is it gardening, baking, reading, fishing, golfing, or playing with friends?

We always think we have to get our chores done first but what if we did something we enjoyed first, in between and after? Suddenly we are enjoying the day more aren’t we?

Find time everyday to do some things that you enjoy.
It’s not living if life feels like we have one chore after another.
So do something you enjoy every day.

Doing things we enjoy doing leads to a marvelous life.
In fact it leads to a very happy life and when your life is happy it rubs off on others.
Who wants to be around happy people?
I do – I do!

I’ll be the one rollerblading past your house wearing my hat with the bright pink feather on my way to pick up groceries …

With great love, Suzanne

What will today bring?

What would you like today to bring?
State your intentions.
First thing in the morning and throughout the day, state your intentions.

Do you desire something to go smoothly?
Do you choose a day with ease and flow?
Just state your request.

Act like it is a done deal.
Talk like it is a done deal.
Think as if it’s a done deal.

Now at the end of the day – don’t forget to say thanks for it.
Because if you are not already living it - it is well on its way.

With great love, Suzanne

Joy together

Marriage. Is it fun to be married? Yep!
After 26 years of marriage I still think its fun. Of course I expect everything in my life to be fun and our expectations always show up in our life.

What makes a great relationship whether you are married or not?
We can start with a foundation of … love, respect, passion, friendship, open communication, and the ability to laugh.

Together can be a beautiful place to be.

We can create for our lives whatever we desire. This is true of our relationships too. We can ask for and create any relationship we desire to have.

List the things you desire. Demonstrate them yourself in your relationship and watch what happens.

Create the relationship of your dreams. Better, create the relationship of both your dreams. Your partner gets included of course. It is within your power to create your perfect relationship together.

Commit to making your life the best in can be because you deserve it.
It’s more than a dream, it’s your life.

I’m wishing you hugs and kisses forever!

With great love, Suzanne

We have options

We can do this or that or the next thing.
We can say this or that or the next thing.
We can feel this or that or the next thing.
We can choose for ourselves whatever we wish to.
Everything we choose has consequences but we can choose.

We can choose how we feel, act or respond to everything that shows up in our life.
We can choose how we feel, act or respond to everything that we see or hear about in the world.

We can always choose. We always have options.
Every moment of every day we can choose.
Are you feeling your power?
What do you choose for yourself right now?

Love is from source

Source is where we feel our power …
Source is where we feel content and calm …
Source is where we know we can do anything.
Source is full of love for us.

Sometimes we may not feel content, or calm or powerful.
That means we are not feeling the power, strength and energy of our source.

Love is the key to finding our way back to source.
Can you feel love and gratitude?
Can you show love and gratitude to yourself and those around you?

With love we find source and when we find source we find it’s been waiting with love for us all along. It can feel like every moment is a dream when we connect to our source.

With great love, Suzanne

Unpack your baggage

What baggage you say?
The baggage you are carting around in your head and on your shoulders!
It’s the worries, the thoughts, the regrets, and the angers that don’t have to be there.

Sometimes this baggage can get pretty heavy. In fact it can cause us to feel tired, lethargic or irritable and we don’t even realize why we feel that way because our baggage has been too heavy for too long.

It may be time to unpack that incident with Aunt Bettrina … and Cousin Timboy … and also what your co-worker or spouse said this morning … who really cares? How important is it really in the scheme of things?

And while you are at it, you might as well unpack the guilt of the things you figure you said or should have said, did or didn’t do because none of it matters. Do whatever you feel you need to do in the present to bring yourself peace.

You have just unpacked a lot of baggage you’ve been carrying.
Are you feeling lighter now?
You should because that was a lot of weight on you that is now unloaded.

Remember the signs and unpack your bags sooner next time okay?
Life is much easier and way more fun when we travel light.

With great love, Suzanne

Enjoy down days

A down day or a down moment is not a bad thing. Give yourself permission to enjoy it.
If we didn’t have moments when we felt less than good how could we appreciate feeling good?

Whenever you are feeling less than upbeat here is my suggestion …
Notice the feeling. Even allow the feeling.
Appreciate the feeling for what it is. It means we are alive.

Now decide if you are ready to change the feeling or want to hold onto it a little longer. It is always our choice.

When you are ready to change your feeling or mood – simply start thinking about something that makes you feel good. Anything goes here! Pick any good thoughts about anything.

Think a pleasant thought and it becomes another and then another.
You will now begin to feel better and better.
Good feeling thoughts are an instant pick me up. (So is dancing by the way)

There is nothing wrong with down moments or even down days. It’s how we think of them and respond to them that makes the real difference. There is nothing good or bad – only our thoughts make it so.

So whenever you feel like it – enjoy a down day so you can really appreciate a great day!

With great love, Suzanne

Alice in Wonderland Dreams

Is it real? Is it not real?
Do we create our own real?
What do we desire to be real?
Could that make it real?
Oh now I am confused.
Maybe it is all in our head.
The only thing that is true I think is …
What’s real to you is real to you.
Does anything else really matter?

Happy Monday!

My Coaching Philosophy

This is my philosophy:

"No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge. The teacher who walks in the shadow of the temple, among his followers, gives not of his wisdom but rather of his faith and his lovingness. If he is indeed wise he does not bid you enter the house of his wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind."

-Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931)
