DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 2 “Creating Open Spaces”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 2 “Creating Open Spaces”

Today’s Body Connection: If you are bored with your fitness routine, it is time to start again. The energy of boredom comes from the inability to touch your inner creativity. Revamping your training regime is a great way to restart your fitness program. Be willing to go within and ask yourself what is missing. Take the time for self-exploration. When we become willing to shift the way we train our body-temples, infinite possibilities become our truth. There are many pathways to wholeness; be willing to shift direction.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Setting intentions means opening our consciousness and creating space to grow. We must be willing to release our old ideas so that we may have new experiences on our spiritual walk. Our intentions set into motion the clearing away of old paradigms that no longer serve us. It is the open space that gives us breathing room so that new and powerful transformative work can take place. When we set the intention to be more, there must be a willingness to ask the question, “What must I release? What must I become?” The intention to transform is the intention to become more.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, set aside everything you think you know about your journey so that you are open and free to have a new and fresh experience in God. Use the “set aside prayer”; “May I set aside everything I think I know about ____ (fill in the blank) so that I may have a new experience.” Be willing to release everything that no longer serves you. Create a space for transformation.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am a new experience in the mind of God. My life is a fresh idea that blesses the planet. Amen.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Celebrating Light – Day 2 “Identifying With the Light”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Celebrating Light – Day 2 “Identifying With the Light”

Today’s Body Connection: When we say yes to health and fitness, we say yes to letting our inner light shine, but it takes preparation. We must prepare our minds and our bodies for the journey of transformation. If you decide that running or walking is your preferred form of exercise, choose an area to run or walk that is pleasing to you. Research the different routes and paths you can take. Invest in a good pair of running shoes, and you also might want to purchase running gear. If yoga is your choice of exercise, buy your own yoga mat to help you have the best experience possible. If you are looking for a gym, find the place that speaks to you. Not every workout place is the right one for you. Preparation means giving yourself the best opportunity to shine and be successful.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Malcolm X once said, “A man must stand for something or he will fall for anything.” What do you stand for? What do you identify with? Do you identify with your job, the size of your home, or the size of your bank account? These are all nice things to have, but they are an illusion, a false God that we have created to give our lives meaning. The truth is our true identity is the One Presence, the One Mind, and the Universal Power of Love. We must put into practice prayer, meditation, fellowship, and service that cultivate the “oneness consciousness” within our lives. Once we know that there is no separation between God and us, we become free to identify with the light that lives within.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, begin to identify with the God that lives within you. Every moment remind yourself that you are one with Mother, Father, God. Create an affirmation that reminds you of the “oneness consciousness.”

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I identity with the Light within, and I allow it to shine bright. And so it is. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 26 – “Determination and Tenacity”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 26 – “Determination and Tenacity”

Today’s Body Connection: One of the great challenges while transforming the body-temple is staying with and adhering to the required program. Your determination to complete the goal requires “staying power.” You will always come to a fitness crossroad; your choices are to keep going or to give up. Your tenacity and persistence is the key. You cannot win if you are not in. You must stay in the game. That old saying rings true: “Quitters never win and winners never quit.” To put a new spin on it, “You can’t win a game if you don’t play.” Trust me, it’s one of the hardest challenges of your life, but transforming your body-temple from unhealthy to healthy is the most fulfilling goal you will ever achieve.

Today’s Meditative Thought: True and deep transformation requires determination and tenacity to see God’s plan come to fruition. You are the divine vision in living form. The shift will happen if you don’t give up. Be determined to stay in the race. We all have great insights, but when we cease the work that is required, or we don’t see change right away, we shelve our dreams and move on.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, be determined; continue to allow your transformation to come forth. Stick with it no matter what. Find an accountability partner who will stand with you no matter what, even when you don’t want to continue. Once you have connected with your partner, make the commitment to stand with them.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am determined and filled with divine tenacity to see my transformation come to life. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 23 – “Remembering”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 23 – “Remembering”

Today’s Body Connection: Every workout is a time to remember who and who’s you are. Our life is a dance of forgetting and remembering our power. The physical practice is always a tool for remembering, if we set the intention. When you do cardiovascular training, remember your capacity to breathe. When you lift weights, remind yourself of the never-ending strength that lives within your soul. When you take a Pilates class or train your core, remind yourself that a strong foundation is needed to build your life. And our yoga practice is a reminder to be more flexible in our lives. Our physical practice reminds us of the spiritual journey we have said yes to. It is all connected!

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation is the journey of remembering who and who’s you are. Today, remember that you are divine and fine. There is only one thing to change, your consciousness and that is everything.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, transform the way you see yourself; be still and remember. Mindfully move through your day with only empowering thoughts. Whenever you think of your body-temple, bless it with love. This might be a challenge at first but you can do it. Set the intention to remember to be kind and love to your self.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I remember to remember. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 16 – “Faith Is the Key”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 16 – “Faith Is the Key”

Today’s Body Connection: Today, have faith that your transformation is happening. Do not go by your external appearance; you may be the last to notice the changes in your body. Everything you do accumulates; every walk, run, and/or yoga class adds to your fitness bank account. When you lift weights, have faith that you are getting stronger. When you jump on the elliptical machine, know that your cardiovascular condition is improving. During yoga trust, you are on a personal journey to higher consciousness. All physical transformation begins with some small leap of faith that a change can happen.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Faith is the key during your transformation. You might not see the change you desire or the life you want right away, but have faith; your transformation is happening. Turn all your concerns and worries over to God and allow the Universe to do its thing. Have faith in God, have faith in Love, have faith in faith, and have faith in yourself. This is your time to transform and co-create with God the life you are meant to live.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, have faith as you transform your life. Create a mantra that anchors your faith! Every hour on the hour, use the mantra to remind yourself of the journey you have said yes to. Take a breath, slow down, and remember.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I stand in my faith that my transformation is happening now. And so it is. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 11 – “Be Clear”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 11 – “Be Clear”

Today’s Body Connection: When we choose to transform the body-temple, we must be clear about our intentions. What is it that you want? I invite you to be clear about the intention. Sometimes we say, “I just want to get into my skinny jeans,” but it is more than that. Go deeper. Go beyond the surface. Dropping a dress size would be great, but what does that really mean? If you loose the weight, you will feel better, you will be able to do the things you have come to this planet to do. If you embrace a healthy way of life, you will be more productive and active. Reducing your blood pressure means you can spend more time enjoying life and less time taking medication to sustain life. Connect with the “underneath vibration” of the intention for transforming your body-temple.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Be clear about what it is you want. Transformation requires clarity. When you are in the midst of a shift, your intention will see you through. There are challenges and there are bumpy roads, but if you are focused, you can make it through anything. Change requires ‘work-play’, but it is worth it

Today’s Action Plan: Today, set your intention for the transformation you desire, and have faith it will be done. Then actively let it go and let the universe take over. Take a breath and say, “I release and I let go.” Journal about the release process and any insights you might have.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment… just for this breath, I set the intention to transform into what I am meant to be. And so it is. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 10 – “The Jumpstart”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 10 – “The Jumpstart”

Today’s Body Connection: The fitness “jumpstart” is that surge of energy you get before you start your practice. Truth be told, it is the up-leveling of your vibration, fueled with your intention. It is the moment you have agreed to get out of bed and exercise. It is the moment you choose an apple over a candy bar. It is that second you become aware that your transformation is about the inside and how you feel. Your “jumpstart” is the moment you say yes to allowing yourself to be whole and complete.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation can be empowered with your words, thoughts, and language. Use affirmations like, “I can,” “I will,” and “I am able,” to jumpstart your life. Our mental enthusiasm will fuel all our intentions.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, speak only words that up-level your transformation. Consciously move through your day with the awareness that your language coagulates into your existence. Be aware of each time you feel that surge of energy, the moment you know you have committed to your yes. Acknowledge your moments of awakening.

Affirmation: Just for this moment… just for this breath, I jumpstart my transformation with the power of Love. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 8 – “Transformational Commitment”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 8 – “Transformational Commitment”

Today’s Body Connection: As we begin our journey of transformation, there must be a commitment to embrace growth and a willingness to be better. There are four elements of fitness that are required: cardio, strength, flexibility, and mindful eating. Sometimes we get one or two of these requirements going, but we have not committed to all four and our transformation is slow-moving. I encourage my clients to have an “all in and all out” attitude. We commit to being all in to win and we go for the goal all out; we don’t hold back. Remember, what we put in to transformation is what we get out of it.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation requires commitment. For 21 days, commit to the practice of loving. Commit to blessing everyone you see. Commit to activating Joy within your life. Commit to something greater than yourself.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, commitment is the key. Journal about your level of commitment; what does it look like? What does it mean to you? How far are you willing to commit? Be honest and free yourself from false ideas and expectations. Your commitment must be honest. “Let your yes be yes.”

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment… just for this breath, I commit to the transformation within my soul. Amen

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 6 – “Surrender to Transformation”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 6 – “Surrender to Transformation”

Today’s Body Connection: So, the initial excitement is gone and you realize how hard it is and how much time is required to transform the body-temple. Your mind starts to play games, and you hit the “fitness fork in the road.” What do you do? You have two choices: give up or surrender to the transformation you said yes to. Remember, surrender is the opposite of giving up. Giving up says you have stopped trying and surrendering says you will do what it takes to transform. Surrendering takes a daily practice, and sometimes it might require a moment-to-moment re-commitment. But you can always return to your yes. Surrendering is a requirement for your transformation.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation can only come with surrendering. Integrate yourself into the divine. Infuse your being with God. Operate from the knowing that you are the life of the universe with a grand plan. Give yourself over to the will of God and allow its power to work as you.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, open up all accesses of your life to God and be the miracle. When you come upon the fitness fork in the road, stop and be still and surrender. Your transformation is unfolding right now; embrace it and stay the course. Journal about what it is like to surrender to your journey. Stay close to the practice.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I give my life over to divine transformation. Amen
