A note on subtraction and building in the bliss

August 20, 2015
DeathtoStock_Creative Community5_reduced

A remember a time not that long ago, that the word self-care was not even part of my vocabulary.

This is what I thought was living – first class honours degree, a job in one of Sydney’s best Architecture firms, living by the ocean, training for half marathons, the list goes on. Truth be told this wasn’t really living. Life looked really convincingly good on paper but it all came at a price. Namely my health for a start, 6 years of university, a burnt out alcohol fuelled liver, hormones all over the place, poor skin, commuting 3 hours a day and allergies that wore me down day after day.

My determination to ‘get well’ finally got the better of me. I took some big leaps in the direction what made me feel healthy and I took control of my journey:

I owned the image of my future self – and she was a colourful, well, luminous being

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…

Inspiring sisters – Introducing Mukti of Mukti Organics

June 29, 2015

Meet Mukti, founder of certified Organic Australian skincare range.

Mukti, created the vision for her brand as a beauty therapist when she wasn’t able to find a product that she felt confident was natural enough to recommend to her clients. Pure integrity I say. Her brand officially launched in 2000 and became fully certified Organic in 2006, one of the first of it’s kind in Australia. And today, that stand for integrity still exists as the products continue to be hand-formulated.

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?”
