My new blog!

Hi everyone,

I’m so happy to say that I’ve finished putting together my new website and blog, Love Your Healthy Life!  Everything that I have written on Living Mindful Grace has been transferred over there.   I will be writing new posts weekly and they will be in-depth discussions about topics like health, happiness, and self-love.  LYHL is also where you can find out everything you might want to know about my health coaching business.  I will begin taking on clients in March!

I hope you will head over there, check it out, and even start following, if the content speaks to you.  That would mean so much to me.  This website is the product of my love and passion and I’m so grateful to be able to share it with wonderful people like you.  My hope is to play a part in starting a self-love revolution, and it begins with you!

I wish you all so much health, love, and happiness.

Love,

Grace

Changes and Requests

First off, I’d like to thank those of your who have stopped by my blog for taking some time out of your busy days to look at what I’ve put together and contemplate some of the messages that I felt were important to share with the world.  The fact of the matter is, this blog is not really what I hoped it would be.  When the idea to create a blog first came to me, I envisioned a space much likes that of Alia’s Inner Bliss, Julia’s Painted Path, or Katie’s Head Heart Health.   I wanted it to be personal, I wanted it to help people.  I wanted it to be a place of refuge and wisdom, love and connection, beauty and inspiration.

I began by sharing my voice and telling my truth, but then the doubts crept in that told me that I wasn’t good enough.  That I didn’t know enough to help people.  That no one would benefit from my work or even care to read it.  So I got fearful, and instead of using my own words, I used other’s, and I reduce my blog to a fraction of my original vision.  Yes, everything I posted here resonated with me and felt worth sharing, but I’ve been holding back.  I’ve been acting from a place of fear.  But that time is over.  I know that I can help people.  I know that I have a gift that I am meant to share with the world.  We all do.

So within the next couple of weeks I’ll be unveiling my new website and blog and in 4 months time I will begin taking on clients for my health and life coaching business.  I believe that my life’s purpose is to help others be healthy and happy and live the lives of their dreams.  And the first step in doing that is refusing to put off my own dreams any longer.

Those of you who have been reading my blog already, I’d love to hear:

1.  What is the main thing you know you could be doing for your health that you continue to struggle with implementing?

2.  What do you think is getting in the way of you living the life of your dreams (or if you are living the life of your dreams, what is the biggest thing that helped you get there)?

I look forward to reading your comments and I can’t wait to share my heart’s work with you!

Be your own hero

Wild Geese by Mary Oliver

Wild Geese

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,
are heading home again.
Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting–
over and over announcing your place
in the family of things.
