How did Monday get here so quickly? I have just spent a weekend away as a participant in an incredible program for women. Over the last three days I had the absolute honour of getting to know about 20 inspiring women whom I will spend a lot of time with over the next year. We are all participants in the Catherine McAuley Award, a program dedicated to the development of women in leadership and service. It is going to be a year of insight, creativity and transformation and I am very excited about being a part of this for myself and being a witness to this happening for others
With this week's Monday Motivator Message focusing on Empowerment I was mindful over the past few days to honour myself and my journey by authentically standing in my own power and sharing that abundantly and creatively with others. As a beautiful reminder to empower myself I bought home a little seedling of clary sage. It represents wisdom, long life and esteem and is mine to nourish over the course of this year and beyond. The seedling came to me after participating in a beautiful ritual to represent the healing and wisdom of being a woman and the growth that this year will bring Today I want to share with you an exercise to help you to access your inner wisdom ~ the 'Sage' in you! I see accessing your wisdom as an exercise in self awareness. A great way to get the most out of this exercise is to treat it a bit like a daily reflective meditation ~ I like to call it my 'Sage meditation' January has certainly been a month of vision for me and I know for a lot of others in my life. It has been a time where there has been reflection over the past year and intentions set, resolutions and decision made for a vision for 2011. I hope that some of what I have shared over the past few weeks, including last weeks method for setting your own big abundance goal (B.A.G.) has helped you to start the year with clarity and vision?
In today's Monday Motivator Message and after last week's look at abundance the focus is on the creative. I'm going to share with you a bit of a recipe that you can use to inspire the Creative Goddess within to create your own vision for 2011. I love the image I've included today because for me it's a beautiful expression of colour and it's also very feminine. When I look at the beautiful face pearing out it makes me feel open and expansive, alive and free. It inspired me with this week's webinar as well as today's post. Now you could get into some face and body painting to connect with your inner Creative Goddess if you like, but here's a little something a bit less 'in your face' so to speak.... Abundance... it's in the B.A.G! WOW! It's here... the first of your Monday Motivator Messages and my time to share with you how you can create your very own Big Abundance Goal (or B.A.G. for short) for 2011!
I had lots of fun creating my own B.A.G last week that the artist in me who is passionate about using symbols to represent what I am creating in my life and business also had to create this little image for you all as a reminder that abundance can literally be 'in the bag' if you believe it can be Before we get started with the exercise I want you to firstly take some time to think about what abundance means to you and what it would mean to live an abundant life. If it makes it easier then imagine you have a magic wand in your hand and with a little wave your world is exactly as you would want it to be. What does that look like? List off some things that might be happening in your world then and consider which of these things mean abundance to you. Abundance for me is all the riches in my life including my relationships with my husband, family and friends, my passions and gifts and also the money I earn..... I recently shared 5 fabulous questions with you in the article Reflecting on 2010 and uncovering the brightly coloured gems. I hope that you were able to uncover some of the brightly coloured gems in your life Now you have the opportunity to take your reflection a step further with another 5 quesions and statements that I call 'visioning opportunities'. Each one will help you to clarify the vision you are working towards this coming year so that you can really create your own Creative Possibility Before you answer the questions I want you to firstly imagine it is 31st December 2011. Imagine you are sitting somewhere quietly contemplating the year that has been and all that you are celebrating. It would be really honouring if you could sit somewhere inspiring, perhaps light a candle and have some of the things you treasure around you (just like you might do on 31st December). Now answer or finish the following; 1. What are the three main goals that I am celebrating having achieved? 2. What were the three main celebrations I participated in this year and what was I celebrating?
3. This year I spent X amount of time (days / weeks / months) taking time out from work or my business and I did..... 4. My great big abundance goal I achieved for this year (how much money I made, the riches I have in my life) was.... 5. I am most grateful for the following 5 or more things in my life..... Just as with the questions from last week, taking time to answer these questions as a reflection piece is a lovely way to honour yourself, your journey and the vision you have for the coming year. Look out next week for an article to help you set your big abundance goal! I'd love to know how you find this and what you discover so please add your comments below Happy reflecting.... In case you missed last weeks questions they were;
