healing insights & inspirations
today, as many days in the previous year and a half, brought me a lot of profound insight, wisdom and new inspiration. i finished watching the documentary ‘‘heal’’, which was something i wanted to do for a while. i didn’t go into the experience expecting much, but it left me feeling inspired, hopeful and expanded. i often talk about how certain things can make your world feel small or big. i always encourage people to seek what makes life feel expansive and makes them feel like their world is wide open right in front of them. i was shown this again first hand today.
it’s late and i’m about to go to sleep, but i felt called to share some mind notes on what is stirring in my head at the moment. may it inspire you as much as it inspires me. take what resonates, leave what doesn’t. i also decided to add some general things i’ve felt inspired by in the past few days.
mind notes from july 29th
any type of forgiveness, is always self-forgiveness. read this slowly.
we can practice seeing problems as portals, we can start seeing struggles as portals, as re-births. this is not the end, this is your rebirth.
for a star to be born, there is one thing that must happen; a nebula must collapse. so collapse. crumble. this is not your destruction. this is your rebirth.
rest. the release of emotions. the feeling of emotions. the breath. nature. joy. community. all of this leads to harmony of the body and our life.
today i feel deep peace and a deep knowing that my future will be beautiful. i can feel the future girl/woman that i am and that i am yet to be, i can feel her peace and i can feel her love radiating bright like the sun. she’s holding so much love and patience for me to arrive. i think i already have.
a story about perspective that changed my life recently:
Once upon a time there was a Chinese farmer whose horse ran away. That evening, all of his neighbors came around to commiserate. They said, “We are so sorry to hear your horse has run away. This is most unfortunate.” The farmer said, “Maybe.”
The next day the horse came back bringing seven wild horses with it, and in the evening everybody came back and said, “Oh, isn’t that lucky. What a great turn of events. You now have eight horses!” The farmer again said, “Maybe.”
The following day his son tried to break one of the horses, and while riding it, he was thrown and broke his leg. The neighbors then said, “Oh dear, that’s too bad,” and the farmer responded, “Maybe.”
The next day the conscription officers came around to conscript people into the army, and they rejected his son because he had a broken leg. Again all the neighbors came around and said, “Isn’t that great!” Again, he said, “Maybe.”

some things i am currently working on:
doing less, instead of more, when it comes to physical wellbeing
working less with oracle and tarot cards & turning my attention to my inner intuition and knowing instead
practicing mindful eating and stop watching or consuming content while cooking or eating (this is a hard one for me, my intuition has been telling me this for over 2 years and until now i haven’t been able to get myself to do so, i’m now on day 2 and this is the furthest i’ve ever gotten, i am proud of myself and i believe that i can do this)
the release of old stuck emotions, simply letting myself sit and feel and open up the space to simply let what wants to come forward come forward and then trusting the process & how my body wants to release said thing
working on my soul vision and taking a lot of tiny uncomfortable steps that will lead to big magic some day
allowing myself to be embarrassing and cringe, allowing myself to wonder if what i’m doing might be seen as embarrassing or weird to others, but doing it anyway
going barefoot on my walk with my dog as much as possible, feeling the ground and enjoying all the different sensations i feel, feeling connected to the earth, even if it’s just for a 10 minute walk
reading as much as possible, because i am never happier than when i let myself dive deep into reading as many books as i want
some things that spark my joy & curiosity at the moment:
neville goddards teachings
dancing & hopefully visiting more dance classes soon
books by emily henry
making homemade natural popsicles & ice cream
emotional healing & the effects released emotions can have on the body and also effectively release my own emotions instead of pushing them down
calming & magical avatar pandora ambiance music (a guilty pleasure without the guilt)
fantasizing about hosting magical, peaceful & divine retreats all over the world some day
sending you so much love & peace,
amelie ♡
