What are you thinking about

What are you thinking about
Our thoughts literally control everything in our life. But what if I have bad thoughts, you think? Usually those bad thoughts are just habits playing on repeat in our head. Old memories, the way old things used to be, old habits, old beliefs. If you want to change your life, you have got to take charge of those thoughts that bounce around in your head all day on repeat. Start telling yourself new stories. Start intentionally creating new thought patterns. Start intentionally speaking life over yourself instead of the opposite. The more you do that, the better your thoughts will be over time. When your thoughts get better over time, your life gets better. Our life is nothing more than a product of our thoughts. I wish I could explain it any simpler than that.

Your thoughts

Your thoughts
The thoughts that you have about yourself, and your life are so much more powerful than you have been led to believe. Knowing that, be more mindful and intentional with the thoughts that you allow to bounce around in your head and take up all your time.  Start telling yourself you’re amazing, that you are enough, that you are loved beyond measure, that you are perfect as you are, everything is going as planned, and that all is well.

I promise you, if you do that consistently and you start to transform the thoughts that run rampant through your mind, the good thoughts will start to overtake them and you won’t have those horrible thoughts about yourself and your life situation anymore. 
It’s not easy, it’s not quick, but it works if you do the work.  it’s also an inside job and nobody else can do it for you, so if you work on yourself, you will grow your life, and you will become better and you’ll be happier. #WinningAtLife #YouAreEnough #YouAreWorthy #KindWords #LoveYourself#fullcup #Overflow.


Fall is a Time to Release

Fall is a Time to Release
Hello 
Fall is a time to let things go.   Nature is such a wonderful way for us to physically see what happens to us as human Beings,  and to remind us that it is ok, and natural to do.  I think soo many people think they're supposed to go 100 miles an hour every day and wonder why they're miserable, or sick, or whatever.  We need the different seasons in our lives.  Our body varies with the seasons just like the trees and plants.  I want to encourage you to let things fall away if they are going in that direction.   It's ok to let go of things that weigh you down.  It's ok to let go of excessive baggage.   It's ok to allow the feelings to come up and out.   Fall and winter are times to pause and reflect, and prepare our roots for the new growth in the spring. Breathe and release my friends, breathe and release.  

 As much as I love summer, I believe fall and spring are my favorite times of year.  Which season is your favorite? 

Speaking of Fall I want to share some fall recipes

DIY Deodorant

DIY Deodorant
Did you know that our body is meant to sweat.  That's a huge way our body gets rid of the toxins we are exposed to daily.  Years ago, I changed from heavy duty antiperspirants, that rarely even worked, to a healthier, homemade version!  Antiperspirants contain aluminum, to stop the sweat,  which is a huge no no for our health.  Did you know that aluminum is a huge cause of breast cancer?  They don't advertise that well known fact.  What can you do instead?  

Say no to conventional deodorant and say hello to natural, effective homemade deodorant that really works. It's easy to make, last for months, and only takes minutes to make!

This is a recipe I have used for years and honestly, it's the best I've ever tried!  Discover the luxury of deodorant made from your own home. Coconut oil, essential oils , baking soda and corn starch are combined to create a healthy, all-natural alternative to store-bought deodorants. You can even choose the scent!

The recipe is as follows

5 TBSP cold pressed organic coconut oil
1/4 C Baking Soda
1/4 C Corn Starch (can sub arrow root)
20 drops Young Living Essential Oils of choice (I love to use stress away or lavender, but you can choose what you like)

Mix this all together and store in a glass jar.  This can also be put into an empty deodorant tube and kept in the fridge if you like that sort of thing.

If you need to order some oils for this recipe, I got you!


Happy healthy day to you! 
Casey





Your Mindset is the Key


Have you ever wondered why some people are successful and others aren't? There is a reason for it. Our mindset will help us achieve what we want in life. A positive mindset allows us to get through difficult times and achieve our goals.

Our mindset is the impetus that drives our actions

Our mindset is the impetus that drives our actions. It's also the life we lead!
In other words, if you have a positive and healthy mindset, then it will be reflected in your everyday living and vice versa. You can't change your life without changing your mindset first!

Let go of negative thoughts

Negative thoughts are harmful to your health. They can cause stress, depression, anxiety and anger. Negative thoughts can even lead to fear or jealousy. Resentment is also a negative emotion that often comes from the false belief that we do not have enough or are not as good as others who do.

Meditation opens our minds to the higher power

Meditation is a way to focus your mind. It's a way to connect with the higher power inside of you. Meditation is also a way for you to become more aware of yourself and the world around you, as well as nature in general.

Being generous and compassionate with others helps our own well-being

  • "It's not just about the money, it's giving back," says Bobbi. "When we give, we get so much more back in return."
  • This is especially true when you're able to help someone who really needs it. For example: If a friend asks for advice on how to deal with their abusive boyfriend, you could say something as simple as: "I think you should leave him." Then your friend will be grateful for your advice and likely feel better about making changes in their life. In effect, by helping them out of an unhealthy situation, you give yourself peace of mind as well!
  • Now imagine doing this on a massive scale—for example, through charity work or political activism—and getting similar results across the entire community! The amount of joy that would come from helping everyone around us live happier lives would be exponentially greater than any amount we could ever achieve by ourselves alone!

A well rested body and mind are essential to success

Sleep is a funny thing. We all know that we need it to function, but most of us don’t think about it in the same way we think about food or water. Sleep is life-sustaining and while some people are able to get by on less than others, nobody can live without sleep for an extended period of time.
Sleep is essential for our health, our happiness, and our success at work and at home. Here are just some of the benefits:
  • A well rested body and mind are essential to success
  • Sleep helps us form memories
  • When we sleep our brains continue consolidating memories from the day into long term storage which makes them easier to access later on when needed (such as when taking a test). According to research conducted by Dr Sara Mednick at UC Irvine School Of Medicine , students who took naps before their tests had better results than students who did not take naps before their tests!  The same research showed that even after six months these students maintained higher grades than those who didn't nap before exams!  This shows how important good quality sleep really is - if you don't get enough then your brain won’t be working at 100% capacity either during waking hours or when you try catching up on lost sleep later on so make sure that each night your mind gets plenty restful hours between its “offline” moments where no one else can access what's stored there ;)

Practice gratitude for all that we have in this world.

Gratitude is the attitude of being thankful for what one has. It is a way of thinking and feeling that helps build a sense of contentment, satisfaction and fulfillment. Gratitude makes people feel more positive about their lives. It gives them something to be happy about.
It’s important to show our appreciation for the good things in life because it keeps us focused on what is important, improves our mental health and creates happiness. When we focus on negative things like money problems or relationship issues they tend to get bigger while focusing on the positives can help reduce stress and anxiety levels by reducing negative emotions such as anger or frustration which can lead to depression if left unchecked over time because you cannot control everything in your life so it's better off trying instead making yourself miserable all day long worrying about something out there that could happen but never does so why waste energy?

By keeping a positive mindset, it allows us to live a more fulfilling life

  • By keeping a positive mindset, it allows us to live a more fulfilling life. When we are positive, we can do more. We are more likely to achieve our goals and succeed in life. We are also more likely to be happy and healthy as well as generous with others.
  • The opposite is true when we have a negative mindset. A negative attitude will not allow us to do what we want in life or accomplish any of our dreams because everything seems like such an uphill battle with no way out.

Conclusion

In conclusion, our mindset is one of the most powerful tools we have at our disposal. It enables us to make the right choices and decisions when faced with difficult situations. The better we are able to control our thoughts and emotions, the less likely we will be susceptible to negative influences that may otherwise hold us back from achieving success in life.

That journey opened my eyes to the mind-gut connection, showing me how to shift my mindset, break through limitations, and spark joy. Now, I’m passionate about guiding others to tap into their own wisdom through uplifting content and heartfelt coaching, inspiring you to live vibrantly and create a life you love.
