My number one tool for creating your own brand of beautiful

July 22, 2015

15.07.21_create own brand of beautiful

I like to think that I’m a closet self-improvement junkie. Rather than blurting out gospel, I subtly weave words of wisdom into conversations.

Sneaky much?

I call it showing up in the world as your radiant self, playing big, living into possibility…and soon enough they’ll be curious.

In reality, I’m bowing to the ‘church of self-improvement’ (as Danielle LaPorte would call it) on a regular basis. Often found alone, absorbed in my latest spiritual fascination. Like anything I’m passionate about, there are times when the church becomes a little too intense and I have to pull away momentarily. I step back, overwhelmed with new possibilities (this is not a bad thing). But if I step back for too long, habits are lost as I stray and explore something new.

I’m sure you get it beautiful. The pattern of immersing yourself in a new self-improvement bible goes a little something like this…

Living “in Communion” and how surrounding yourself with goddesses will get you higher

June 22, 2015

One of my core desired feelings for 2015 is to live in communion.

In 2014, it was to feel connected.

Tossing around these words, there isn’t a whole lotta differences between these two. But in the core of my being, by simply changing my focus ever so slightly, I discovered a whole lot more than I could ever have imagined.

Rewind to late 2014. I left behind many beautiful friends to move south to Melbourne. From the outside, you might look at this and say “didn’t you feel dis-connected with connectedness?”

Ask a Friend Survey Danielle LaPorte

 

A couple of month’s ago Danielle LaPorte, a woman long admired by both of us, threw this beautiful survey out in to the world.

Ruby challenged us to take it and today we’ll share with you our thoughts on the survey, what we felt about writing it and the flip side of how we felt when we received it too. We’ve also chosen to share a snapshot of the answers that were pretty special to us.

Enjoy beauties!

Be willing to start over – my night with Danielle LaPorte

May 8, 2014

Wow, wow, wow with a healthy dose of Ohhh. Emm. Gee!!

I had the sublime pleasure of seeing this beauty in the flesh on Tuesday night at the Art Gallery of NSW. I also had the sublime pleasure of giving her a hug as well. Everyone else in the line up was thanking her for speaking and changing their lives etc. etc. and like the dork I am, I told her she smelt great – she thanked me and told me it was simply Rose water and Geranium. And, that was that, a very surreal moment for us both I think!

Let’s start at the beginning …

I’d seen Danielle announce on her Facebook page that she had arranged a relatively last minute event in Sydney. It piqued my interest but I didn’t buy a ticket. I actually decided to let Ruby know that we’ll go see her in the States or Canada next year as one of our big goals or BHAGs.

Spirited, The Desire Map & other inner beauty tools for 2014

February 12, 2014

I love this time of year, anticipation of what’s to come for the year ahead, a sense of renewal, shedding of old ideas and opening the way for new possibilities.

There are always goals on the board throughout the year and I for one, have a tendency to race ahead at full speed in order to achieve them, going from one to the other without many breaths in between. So when the new year rolls around, I make a point of taking the time to sit down, to pause, to just be.  Seeing what ‘comes up’ for me but with a focus on those soul-deep ‘core desired feelings’ that Ms Danielle LaPorte has me hooked on.

In the coming weeks, I will be revisiting my vision and goals so in order to help me along with the process I thought it might be fun to look at some of the inspiration tools floating around at A Conscious Beauty:
