Water’s potent ways of teaching are as varied as the forms she takes—oceans, rivers, lakes, streams, rain, drinking water, ice, hot water, bathing water, hail, snow sleet. Water teaches you through the realm of feelings and emotions. Your emotions provide important guidance and teachings about your life and business, and everyone possesses a different comfort level when it comes to feeling and working with them. Few people were taught how to honor and work with emotions as children, and yet emotional maturity is an essential component for full effectiveness in the world. Water teaches you to find greater levels of emotional safety in your relationships and to express more of who you are in the world.

Soulful self-care is the way in which you care for and nourish the essence of who you are – past what you do, beyond all the roles that define you, it is how you turn inward to know, grow and care for yourself.

Allow the following questions to spark your inner knowing and remind you of the authentic, innate power YOU have to create the most magnificent, bliss-FULL life possible for yourself.

One of the greatest lessons I have learned is that once we access and trust the intuitive guidance within us, we naturally and effortlessly know the next step to take on our journey. When we relax and allow our “inner guru” to steer our lives, our choices and decisions flow with grace, ease, AND a lot of fun! Our possibilities expand, new doors open, and opportunities appear when we seek answers from within instead of seeking them outside of us.
“Intuition is the gateway to our oneness with cosmic wisdom. It’s the knowing of our Higher Self that is always connected to Source. ”
