Growing in Grace
I awoke in curiosity, wondering how to “focus” on what needed to be done this day. I tapped in to what my whole body wanted being quite different leading me to a book my Mom had bought me years ago. I wish it had a date, but it was just signed
To Gina,
Love, Mom
I believe the universe sends us signals, guiding us to what we most need or want.
Today, the universe sent me a clear message and invitation.
My invitation to you, is to pause
Take a moment to take a slow, deep inhale (maybe lowering your shoulders), repeating as many times until you feel your whole-body. Open to see what wants to download or what Ah-ha’s are possible in this moment.
A buinocular view at my current reality; choosing to end an intimate relationship.
How do I leave someone I love?
How do I leave someone I see myself growing old with?
How do I do alone “again!”
Am I that “cat lady”
_______________ your story, fear or excuses that shift you out of Integrity
He was involved in a messy divorce for nearly five years when we met. I committed to be invisible wjile child custody was going on, to not affect his outcome. I did not take in to consideration how this would affect my outcome.
When I would tell him about my thoughts, he would say, “Can’t you make up better thoughts“, so I began to think maybe I was crazy. I was willing to devalue myself to have the chance of being loved by him.
I’ve learned that I am not willing to beg to be loved nor fight for someone’s attention.
I learned I can be in a relationship and not lose myself. I’m learning to trust myself, and today of all days the universe hands me a book titled, “Growing in Grace”
Much Love,
Gina

Choosing Your Next Coach or Therapist
I read an article that lit me up and I wanted to share with all of you!
We ‘humans’ require active practicing to understand our full body Yes’s and No’s while navigating our awareness paths. Odds are what works for me won’t work for you AND tapping into our TRUEST core (Innerself) opens up space and yummy A-has!
When searching for your life’s purpose consider listening your body’s intelligence. What do you FEEL from your whole body knowing? not what you “think” you should do. I can honestly say that my job as a life coach is is not “talk therapy” you can go to your best friend for this.
Recently, we’ve all shared in a global pandemic, a threatened US democracy and personal losses (e.g. job, homes, social life). As she mentions in the article, as I quote
There are several routes that you can take toward self-improvement
At one time I was very vested on what degrees and certifications I hung on my wall, long before the International Coaching Federation became the buzz. What this article lacks on is the coaches Individual education and what her definition of “rigorous standards” are. This is your homework. I would say a good life coach will guide you by listening deeply and offering exquisite questions designed towards whole healing. Ultimately, I agree that a life coach is someone who can support you no matter what’s going on in your world.
We do not live in a world of “either / or” so if you find yourself between white and black with no gray, you may want to get curious and wonder what else? or hire a partner to support you in living and designing your best life!

Are you present? How do you know?
Ask yourself, “Where are my feet”?
Invite them to move gently back and forth or side to side to HOW are they moving?
WHAT is the pressure like? Light, Heavy, easy or difficult?
WHERE is the pressure; all in your heels? toes?
Your feet are weighted properly when your standing like a camera on a tripod. Weight is on the front “pad” (fatty part) both big and little toe sides and the heel; you should be able to feel all three points. Maybe bend your knees and make sure you are breathing.
WHAT story am I telling myself right now? Is what is happening on my insides reflecting on my outsides? For example if my stomach hurts and I’m laughing with friends I may not be “matching” from the inside-out.
Are you still trying to “figure it out” or are you actually being with RIGHT NOW? What’s actually here now?
What’s here now if there are no problems to solve? AND again, How do you know?
Being present means fully enjoying the moment that you are in. It is the moment when you are calm and you know exactly what you want.
