We have a global health and wellness company that helps many, many people design better lives in many ways — health, wealth, community and happiness. This blog is not about that. But it’s important information in order to understand the gestalt of this blog.I really believe in, and work, the law of attraction. It’s a daily practice. A moment to moment practice. We all forget . . . we are human and we get caught up in the moment and what is right in front of us and we forget that we are in essence pure light and love and can be, do and have anything that we want as long as we get out of our own way and focus on what we want - and ignore the rest.
Every. Single. Thing. I have and have accomplished in this lifetime so far is by virtue of using the law. I was not born with a silver spoon. In fact, I had some serious sh** go down even as a little little kiddo, but I knew intuitively to focus on all I wanted and ignore the rest as best as I could.
A really easy way to remember to do this is to ask yourself in the moment, “Does this feel hard? Am I paddling upstream?” Anything too complicated don’t work. The end.
We ran out of the fruit and veggie gummies my kids mow down joyfully every day (see info above about our global health and wellness company), so I was trying everything to get those 32 fruits and veggies into their little bloodstreams till the new order arrived. We eat super healthy and my kids love fruit and veggies and don’t think twice about eating homemade caesar salad, baby carrots and steamed broccoli with dinner every night - the gummies are in addition to this, to bridge the gap, because no one gets all the fruit and veggies their bodies want and need - no-body.
Oh boy I tried everything and man, it was - not - workin’ (hello, upstream). I tried opening the capsules and pouring them into their mouths. I tried having them chew the capsules (I do this and love it, it tastes like candy and gets my digestive enzymes going). I tried teaching them to swallow the capsules (gasp! Bad idea). I tried blending them into chocolate Complete shakes. I tried blending them into chocolate raspberry Complete shakes. I tried blending them into Complete vanilla shakes. I tried blending them into vanilla mango Complete shakes. I tried blending them into vanilla blueberry Complete shakes. I tried blending them into strawberry vanilla Complete shakes. I tried blending them into vanilla banana Complete shakes. Oh - my - God - I’m tired and frustrated just typing out the many things I tried . . . and I’m laughing at myself too because I cannot believe I actually tried so “hard” and paddled UPSTREAM for so long.
The lesson? Paddle downstream. Check in each moment, how does it feel to do this? How does it feel to say this? How does it feel to have this conversation? How does it feel to make this expression? If it feels bad, stop it! Try something else. I read a quote I love even though I don’t use the “m word”: “Your best teacher is your last mistake.”
I wrote a card in one of my inspiration card decks that reads, “What’s the vibration of the story I’m telling?” The other side says, “I only talk about high vibration things.”
Another *fun* lesson in this adventure (which is now over TG . . . the shipment of gummies arrived, big sigh): my already OTT strong belief in my global health and wellness company is — even stronger. Mom - on - a - mission.
