Dear Grateful Lifers, So things are kinda scary for our country, and our world right now. I am not scared to admit that yikes, I am scared. I am scared for many of my friends, and scared for what I feel I might need to do in order to support and protect them in the coming months, and years. I'm anxious to see how it all unfolds. It was quite a 2016. Yowza. Not exactly a clean space to begin a fresh year, with meaningful intentions, ya know? To unpack the fearful clutter, I lit some candles, took a deep breath, and settled into a comfortable seat. As an avid traveler, with eyes closed, I chose an image of our favorite hiking bag; first removing any lingering scraps of 2016's adventures, then imagining what this empty sack could hold moving forward. I simply asked: What is calling to my heart? Where can I show up differently...better, even? What is true, and what is real, and what will get me closer to both? Finally, what do I want to bring with me into 2017, that won't weigh me down, but provide sustenance, support, guidance, and abundant joy? Thankfully, despite all of the troubles that seem to lie ahead...despite the stances my communities are likely about to armor up for...there are two beautiful, secret weapons in our arsenal that will never, ever run out: Hope, and Love. With my secret weapons loaded in the forefront of my mind, here is what my meditation provided for an Intention- Filled 2017: January: Irrational Kindness February: Love InDeed (a concept created by my friend and coach, which essentially promotes the power within small, genuine acts of love + kindness). March: Extreme Self Care April: Service + Sacrifice May: Releasing June: Wonder, Amazement, Magic July: At Ease August: Miracles Mindfulness + Manifesting September: Divine Feminism October: Courage November: Meaningful Ordinary December: Audacious Hope Cheers to you and yours! Sending much, much love to each and every heart. Do Good, Be Well, Trish PS!!! Ok, ok. Let's be serious. Not *all* of 2016 was doom and gloom. A few tiny, precious humans came into the world and my heart expanded with oodles of joy and gratitude. There is still so much good out there, and it is paramount we continue to acknowledge these treasures; to hold them close, and let them make us feel like the luckiest little beings on earth. It will make all the difference moving forward....
