November 2015 Newsletter~ Peace this Holiday Season

pema chodron1Happy November!  Our Angelights group had an amazing time in the Italian Lakes and Switzerland with some George Clooney sightings added in 😉  Thanks Lorna!! Our next adventure abroad is Iceland & the Northern Lights next October.  You can check out all the details here.  I am working on Sedona, Arizona for the Spring.  I’ll pass along the details once they are confirmed.  Hope you can join us!

We’ve begun the darker & cooler days & the holidays are upon us.  I hope you plan some time to take care of your body, mind and Spirit this season.  My Spirit is loving the Pema Chödrön Audio Collection.  She is reminding me to get back to basics, slow down, and be mindful. What an authentic, beautiful teacher she is.

Sometimes with all the added responsibilities of the season, we lose our peaceful center, forget to breathe and keep everything in perspective.  As the kids say these days, it really is a 1st world problem when we complain that we don’t have enough time or are stressed with all there is to do.  Things may not be perfect in our lives, bodies, minds or homes but we have so much to be thankful for. I just read this quote by Wale Ayeni. “Be thankful for what you have. Your life, no matter how bad you think it is, is someone else’s fairy tale.”  That is sooo true!

The Angels shared with me years ago that I am the one that complicates things when I over commit and need things to be a certain way.  We can do it differently this year and choose to go with the flow, ask for help and be relaxed.  Let’s give up the old patterns of complaining that we don’t have enough time.  We aren’t victims to it, we get to decide and live whatever reality we choose.

So want to join me in keeping it simple?  If you are relaxed, your guests will enjoy you so much more.  Instead of presents, do what my family does and send donations to the local homeless shelter to make someone else’s Christmas special.  The planet and none of us really needs more stuff while so many don’t have their basic needs met. When people ask what is your secret to being relaxed you can inspire them to lighten their load as well.

For those of us dreading winter, we have to be more creative in bringing the sunshine & joy in.  Play dates with good friends always helps improve our moods.  Can you book time this week to play over the next few months?  Sometimes time flies so fast we forget to plan it and the anticipation of a wonderful girls night can help if we get in a funk.

Gathering with other love minded, spiritually connected people is always wonderful too.  I have some wonderful Angelights events coming up this week & over the month to find your center, share and learn about and connect with Angels and deceased loved ones and will be adding some December events…maybe a Healing blanket night!  I would love to have you join us.  Most classes are in Cumberland, RI and one is in Pennsylvania for all you PA, NJ & NY friends.  Let me know if you want to grow, learn and BE with us.

love, love, love and miss you all!
