Books that are rocking my world right now:
Tools Of Titans by Tim Ferriss
The Sophia Code Kaia Ra
Unshakeable by Tony Robbins
Creating On Purpose by Anondea Judith
The Surrender Experiment by Michael A. Singer
In all different ways. I love somewhat interactive books that make you apply direct action. Otherwise they can be a distraction taking you from creating into just consuming info - in a world of info over when. It's very important to apply what you learn and create your own understanding and offerings. Use reading to curate yourself. Also since there is so much content to quote for my programs, I've had to create a better organizational system than just writing all over the pages!
It is insanely handy to have searchable notebooks in Evernote for every topic imaginable to have on hand when coaching a client. At first this is just information - I need to refer back to how someone else explained it, then after a few times applying it to real life situations that info becomes integrated knowledge and eventually applied wisdom!
Creating Consciously sounds simple but it's blowing my mind how much I have already used out of that book. I don't even remember buying it but I knew I needed to have it. Sometimes I think I get the best "clues" and signs from books. And choosing books is a sort of random yet divine process in that the ones I bought on a whim are the most important and life changing. Or sometimes they will sit and have no application to my life for years before they are all the sudden necessary. Sometimes I can just see the title of something and know I need to read it. Receiving it as a gift or discovering it from someone who was meant to cross my path are clear signals too.
And most of my books that I have selected through intuitive process or have been shown to me, I can pick them up and read the paragraph I need to see at that moment. It's like a way of conversing with God. Reading has become such a divine process.
Book reviews and take-aways coming soon <3
Summary post from #SevenDays7Chakras yoga challenge I did on Instagram last week!
Begin to learn more about the basics of each chakra here <3
#SevenDays7Chakras
Day 1: Root Chakra 💖
Pose: Malasana (Yoga Squat)
Theme: Grounding, Earth, Strong Foundation (healthy diet, happy home etc)
Color: Red
Root Chakra represents alignment with a strong foundation, so you are freed up from worry and fear, to feel comfortable being the best version of yourself. Root to rise! As the lowest chakra this can be the base you build upward from, or this can represent a need to ground your ideas into reality.
To me balance in this chakra is being so grounded you feel at home wherever you are. Ironically for me the challenge lies in being able to stay still for long enough to flourish and grow 💖

Day 2: Sacral Chakra
Pose: Dragonfly (Hip Opening) - added a light twist. Can be done with arms straight or hands on a block also.
Theme: Flow, Movement, Creativity
Color: Orange
Most of our bodies are accustomed to running on carbohydrates, and sugar (both convert to glucose that is used for energy. Ketosis happens when you use fat as a fuel source (thus producing ketones) instead of glucose. The liver breaks down the fat, and releases ketones into the blood to be used by the brain and other organs to produce energy. It's considered a new way of eating based on the premise that most people default to using only carbohydrates for fuel. Glucose is also the easiest molecule for your body to convert and use as energy so that will always be chosen whenever it is present. To switch from that default mode, you have to extremely limit carbohydrates and sugar to as little as 20% of the diet, forcing your body to use fat for fuel instead. So this process is like the switch.
