Journaling is an incredible tool that is powerful and essential for spiritual growth. Journaling has continued to be a part of my daily practice, it’s how I connect with myself, but it’s how I obtain clarity and gain a deeper connection to spirit. 

Journaling is an impactful tool and one of the most impactful ways to create soul expansion, And the best part is it’s simple. But, for some reason, many people are hesitant about implementing journaling into their everyday routine. I want to share a few tips that have helped me on a journey with journaling. 

Most importantly, relax.

There are no steadfast rules with journaling, and no one is standing over your shoulder and double-checking your work. Journaling is for you. It can be challenging to begin the journal writing process, so I highly recommend you find a peaceful place where you can truly utilize your time to write.

Create the Intention

For many, this can be the part where they get stuck. You have to...

“Stay in your lane”, I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase once or twice. Essentially, it means to stick with what you know and mind your own business in the friendliest terms. In today’s world, we are constantly exposed to others’ lives through social media. It’s powerful. It becomes easy to compare your actions to their lives and accomplishments. Instead of celebrating them, we envy them. When you become mindful about staying in your lane, you create the power to avoid negative self-talk, avoid comparison, and, most importantly, eliminate judgment of others. Here are three ways you can channel your energy to stay in your lane. 

Uncover Your Triggers

Uncovering your triggers is one of the most prominent ways to figure out how to stay in your lane. If you are constantly scrolling social media, wondering why you don’t drive that car or have that house, then, of course, you will become wrapped up in envy and self-pity. If you know there...

Meditation and breath-work are common practices used to gain inner peace, reduce stress, and have prolonged benefits on both physical and mental health. They both have tremendous benefits, but how do they differ, and should we choose one over the other? 

Meditation plays a significant role in our bodies’ overall physical, mental, and emotional state. It’s been practiced for decades by numerous cultures in various capacities. Meditation is about seeking silence, a way to shut off the outside world and become completely focused. Meditation can be done with soft music, or it can be guided, and while breathing plays a role in meditation, you’re just observing it and taking breaths rather than the main focus of the exercise. 

Breath-work refers to breathing techniques and exercises to control your breathing. It directs your breathing in a specific way. A certified breath coach typically guides breath-work as they help you focus and change your breathing...

When life isn’t going how we intended, we want to take control and shift. It’s when we are uncomfortable that we seek alignment. Nobody likes to feel uncomfortable, and when these feelings begin to settle in, you’ll search for anything to relinquish them. Instead of control, I challenge you to seek alignment.

Alignment is about moving forward, accepting that you do not control life, and instead finding peace in where you are. Alignment allows you to feel who you are. Our society has taught us that we can compartmentalize our lives. The truth is, it’s merely impossible. When you struggle in your relationship, unhappiness and discomfort trickle into all other aspects of life. Discomfort has a powerful way of flowing into other areas of life. But how can we gain alignment in our lives? 

Listen

Alignment requires you to listen merely to yourself. Sit in your energy and listen. Ask yourself a few questions.

• Is this giving me energy or depleting it? 
• ...

Expectations are the beliefs you hold about an outcome you think will happen. When situations don’t come to fruition, we expect disappointment and discontentment to come to the service. When reality doesn’t match what we had hoped, we often find ourselves in a state of sadness and questioning, which places us in a lower vibration. 

Disappointment is a form of heavy grief, and it can leave us feeling paralyzed and questioning our abilities and direction, and ultimately unable to move forward. How do we relinquish expectations, so we no longer sit in disappointment? 

Begin by looking at the expectation as a whole. When we think about expectations, we tell ourselves, “because I did this, this will happen.” We are giving expectations the ultimate control. 

To begin to let go of perceived expectations, you must place yourself in a state of gratitude. When your expectations outweigh your ability to see reality, you lack appreciation. When you sit...

Breathwork is a common practice that is becoming increasingly popular for people to improve both their physical and mental health. Breathwork aids in achieving a cognitive or biological outcome by mindfully manipulating our breathing. Breathwork offers a plethora of benefits that can help impact your overall well-being. 

Take a moment to reflect on how often you take deep, mindful breaths. Breathwork is more than regular breathing, it's a breathing technique combined with various exercises that are used to improve your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Breathwork, similar to meditation, can be adjusted according to your routine, ranging from complex to simple and quick exercises. 

Breathwork is an essential tool for transformation and well-being. Below I've outlined some beneficial impacts breathwork can play on your overall well-being.

Reduces Stress

We all encompass stress, and stress management is key to living a functional life. Breathwork allows you...

Dreams, hopes, and goals are just that if you don't develop a plan, a strategy, and ultimately the mindset to achieve. Holding yourself accountable at this moment is essential for long-term accountability and strengthens your perspective and energy toward achievement. New year, new me only works if you have motivation, and minimal manifestation comes with a lack of motivation. But this year doesn't have to be that way, and you can set yourself in motion to head into the new year with an accountability mindset.

But how? accountability looks different for each person, and the good news is, there are many strategies and systems that you can adapt to help you keep your mind on reaching your goals. It's important to consider what works best for you:

• Journaling
• Meditating each morning
• Finding an accountability partner
• Investing in a coach

As you head into the new year, here are a few tips and ideas to help you stay on top of your new year's resolutions. 

Be Specific

Be specific...

I remember asking myself if this is really all life has to offer. Is this it for me? I struggled because I’d always yearned for more, not only because I wanted more but because I knew I was destined to do more. It was a subtle itch that never went away. And when we are presented with these opportunities, we have two options, ignore them or enlighten them. I chose to listen to what the universe was trying to tell me.

When you have this whisper telling you that you’re destined for more, it’s easy to ignore and continue to move forward. But, the thing is, life still becomes monotonous from day to day. Whether you are longing for more, in the process of healing, or want to discover yourself on a deeper level. It’s hard to do without seeking assistance.

As a soul expansion coach, I guide you on this journey as a mentor and spiritual soundboard, and I help you understand your role in the universe. Overcoming hurdles and reaching your full potential can only be done...

The positive effects gratitude plays in our lives are exponential. Gratitude raises our vibration leading us to a place of contentment, clarity, and a positive mindset. When we practice gratitude, we can adequately reflect on all that we have. When you find yourself stuck or itching for more, practicing gratitude is one of the best ways to elevate your life. 

Gratitude is one of the most powerful tools for manifestation with an incredible amount of benefits. It creates a state of abundance and shifts our mindset. When you reflect on what you already have, whether it be your health, safety, or finances, you understand all that you have and can extend gratitude. When you are constantly in a state of lack, stress, or jealousy, you are attracting that energy. 

But, when you are constantly tuned into abundance, joy, and gratitude, that is the energy you are attracting and subconsciously creating for yourself. In other words, it’s the law of attraction. What you put into...
