Sitting in a waiting room ♥️
Sipping on a delicious coffee 👌
Deeply grateful for this moment to be 🙏 Life learning and having the kiddos joined along side us has gifted me an incredible sense of gratitude for all moments including this, a time, when I can be just with myself .... this kinda space I took for granted in the past I now relish in all the moments ♥️ I feel so present ... that’s freedom Life truly is a gift 💝 freedom#lifelearning#present#presence#lifeisagift#gratitude#

💫Introspection💫 From the outside
It may appear
That I’ve been very quiet over here
Appearing stagnant perhaps Quite the opposite
This past year has offered abundant expansion, like the seasons, we’ve moved beautifully through contraction and expansion, to contraction and back again we expand I’ve read more books in the last year, than in my lifetime
I’ve opened up to possibilities I never imagined
I’ve experienced accelerated personal growth
I’ve witnessed expanded growth in those around me I’ve transitioned from constantly and regularly sharing those profound moments, in the hope of inspiring others ...to being very introspective ♥️ As I sit here this morning sipping on my coffee
I’m inspired by the ever changing young lady I am.... yes young 😉! I’m also grateful that I’m still here to experience the magic that is life, for those who know me well, know that there was a time I saw only darkness. 🌑
I’m also grateful for the bold decisions we’ve made for our family, with little concern for the opinions of others.... it’s been somewhat liberating 💃 Namaste 🙏
A piece of my introspection shared with you ♥️ #freedom#introspection#love

It felt like we were in the trenches this morning

It felt like we were in the trenches this morning Those moments that are usually less welcoming 🤦‍♀️ Arghhh it can feel icky can’t it Ye ol’ wired patterning tempting me to run away 🧠 It can be hard to reframe those urges that have kept you safe for so long 👣 As we navigate these emotional interactions .... I find myself .... asking “How many more lessons? 🤦‍♀️ Surely I’ve nailed them all by now” That’s my ego talking, my Soul knows differently ! ♥️ It takes fucking bravery to let things unfold without control, without trying to stop others from feeling their feelings, without trying to manage the conflict from escalating.... without trying to analyse why this is all happening ! 💃 It takes bravery to just sit in the thick of it, accepting it, loving it even (did I just say that?) ♥️ Deep
Shit 💩
Very deep! After the moments pass, it just dawns on me, it’s been so long since I expressed through my writing, before our home learning journey I would write daily, it’s so bloody therapeutic. So here’s a piece of my therapy shared A glimpse into my perfectly imperfect life 🥰 Just over here being brave 🔥 ❤️

Emotional Intelligence ✨ It's been a lifelong j

Emotional Intelligence ✨ It's been a lifelong journey for so many of us to uncover these life-changing knowings huh! And then the wise one turns up Surprising us with his innate wisdom 💙 Within those simplistic moments
Holding depth beneath them Alo has recently been experimenting with his strength
This one day, Jesse was his target Jesse was unprepared and quite shocked at the intensity of the blows coming at the side of his body 👊🏻 Alo, not keen to stop ✋ - determined, in his words to "smash em" Approx 1pm - Jesse diverted somewhere else
And this is the gist of the conversation I had with Alo Alo - "Where's Jesse gone"
Me - "He's gone to have space"
Alo- "Space from what"
Me- "Jesse doesn't like to be hit, your fist was hurting him Alo"
Alo- "Is he sad, or angry?"
Me- "I'm not sure Alo, how do you think Jesses feeling?"
Alo- "I think he's taking a breathe because he's angry, but really he's probably sad too, because I love my Jesse, and he loves me - but not my smashing!" Me- "What would you like to do"
Alo- "Stop hitting"
Me- "Ok, Alo, thank you"🙏🏼 And I think to myself - this conversation we are having is so well articulated, it blows me away. Then we moved past this and went about our day ☀️ Later that night when it was time to go to bed, out of the blue Alo says to Jesse "Night, night, I'm sorry for all that smashing today" and they hug. This BLOWS me away .... for a couple of reasons
1 - I never ever mentioned to say sorry to Jesse - It's not my style to make someone say sorry. Probably different from many, but you know we show up in our uniqueness.
2 - I truly believe an apology has got to come from within, self-motivated - intrinsic, and I believe it's something that develops in you as your understanding and compassion grows.
3 - Kids are very in the moment, this blew me away that 6 hours later, 3-year-old Alo, thought of this.
So much learning in this experience - mostly for me! LOL #emotional intelligence#awake#thewiseone#soakingupthelearning#newagekids#sorry#

Once upon a time, there was a girl 💃🏻
Who said "fuck this shit" 👊🏻 I'm over hammering my body
I'm over living a purposeless life
I'm over feeling depressed
I'm over all the self-inflicted bullshit in my life
Over blaming others
Done, done, done ... Kapeesh? 👏 She said 'fuck this shit'👊🏻
She stopped giving all her power away ☄️
And decided to channel all her energy toward
Everything that lit up her soul✨💞🙏🏼
And she did She committed to her wellbeing
She fully committed
All that aligned to her soul found its way to her A Beautiful Man
with a Beautiful daughter
Beautiful children
Beautiful connections
A career in holistic wellness
The ability to support others to shine ✨✨✨
The highest vibrational plant medicine you'll find - the essentials 🍃💧
A beautiful space to live
The highest vibrational energy frequency machine you'll find
Among many other gifts ☀️ All because she said "fuck this shit" 🙏🏼
And because she chose to do something about it
She can now see WHY she made all these changes
The gifts are innumerable
Because of these changes and choices🦋 Not only has she benefited
But the ripple from her has been phenomenal
She sits in reflection 🌹
In the shine of her children 💙
With the deepest gratitude to herself firstly
The deepest gratitude to her resolve of "fuck this shit"👏
The deepest gratitude to those profound people who have come into her life because of this. 🙏🏼✨💞#purpose#empoweredlife#freedom#fuckthisshit#yeowwww#

Airport feels 👌
Sitting, waiting, reflecting 🥰
Realising
The usual space I have away from our babies (I know they’re not babies! Lol) 😉
Is giving to others
Memories of me
Dashing ... rushing ... to help others
Wellness classes all over NZ
Weddings 👰
doTERRA events
While that’s all been so beautiful
Such a gift to give back to others But ya know my scales ⚖️ have at times have been lacking balance
I always gave more of myself to others
Always ❣️
I gotta be honest it feels so good to be waitin to board this flight to Napier
Entirely for me
Filling my cup
Esk Valley here I come
I know I’ll bring home the vibrational essence of bliss
Of self honouring
Of the slowness the in breath offers
And delicately timed out breath
To my loves
And they too will immensely benefit
How do you honour you? 💃
How do you love yourself so deeply that your soul is nourished 👏🙏
I hope you find some of your bliss too 🌹
Much love ❤️

I've never read so many books as I have with Alo!

I've never read so many books as I have with Alo! 📚 Reading today, after the 12th book - I'm not exaggerating! I said to Alo "After this one buddy, I'll take a break" Alo "Dad never takes breaks mum" 🏃🏼‍♂️ "Oh really?" I respond Alo answers with such certainty "Dad, never does" 💙 Mmm "Are you sure Alo, does Dad skip pages?" Alo very certain "No, mum!" My ego wanted to correct him, but who am I to influence how you see things Alo ...Dang it ... all those hours of reading and Daddy gets the glory! So hilarious! 💡💡💡 Perception is everthing peeps, we see situations as we are, not as they are!☄️ Beefo ya buggar #books#daddygetstheglory#imlosingmyvoicehere#loveofbooks#

I wrote this when Alo first felt unwell, but forgot to post it ... anywho here's some reflection Alo
Never stops
This is the second time in 3 years
I’ve witnessed him just stop 🛑
Witnessing the innate wisdom that he holds
Some of Alos suggestions over the course of Sunday have me listening
“Mumma you just need to lay down with me”
“Hold my tummy, it’s not working Mumma you need to relax” LOL 😂
“Mumma I need water 💦 “
“Mumma can you get the ukulele and we sing Tutira Mai Nga iwi”
“Mumma, give me space”
“I just want this pain to go, why are you here pain?” good question Alo
The Most Profound
At 11am, “Mumma I need to go to 🛌 “ what ... for anyone who knows us knows that sleep in the day is not in Alos vocab
“I need the Healy Mumma”
Me “I’ll run the gastrointestinal program”
“Mumma no, I need the pain one”
Even though its been intense, I’ve loved just being so present with Alo today, truly listening #beautifulsoul#innate#wisdom#love#mumofboys#lifelearning#

Called upon To show up ... fully for another Is

Called upon
To show up ... fully for another Is the greatest honour and privilege
For the one who is called upon Does so, not because they will recieve anything in return
But because they are able to give selflessly
Without fanfare
Without acknowledgement And though you may be tempted to save those you are called to
And though you would love to take all that pain away
You're wise to just be, yet seemingly doing nothing The wise one shows up with reverence
The wise one knows, they are not there to fix anything
The wise one knows they support have full sovereignty To hold space so beautifully
So simply
With no attachment
Is a gift that the wise one gives #thewiseone#sovereignty#empowered#giving#love#freedom#holdingspace#

Learning in Nature has our hearts The joy that is

Learning in Nature has our hearts
The joy that is felt within this freedom learning adventure
Is pretty hard to articulate Yet it is felt in the energy that is vibrating from these two beauties Recently, upon waking I noticed Jesse checking the weather
Then discussing with his bro whether he thought a beach day was in order Beach bliss is always on my soul
I didn't hesitate when they asked They organised the car - digger and all
We foraged for treasures which have now become art inspiration at home
Dug our toes in the sand
Discovered shrimps, crabs and many other creatures
Swung on rope swings
Rock climbed
Spoke to the locals
Hung out with the local daycare kids Made connections
The wind upon faces
Sun shining on our hearts
Ahh the blessings of all that Mumma Earth gifts
And its all there calling on us
Waiting for us to notice all the wonders of the earth

of Ward E4 I see you 👀
I see the strain on your face
I see you holding it all together
I see how tired you are
Beautiful selfless soul I see you
You give so much of yourself
Emanating phenomenal compassion
You are love personified 🙌 There is no judgement here

I go to unload the dishwasher
To find nothings really clean 🤷‍♀️ This happens from time to time
Rather frustrating it is ☄️ I said to Alo, "Gosh I have no idea why this dishwasher doesn't clean properly!" Alo pipes up "Don't worry Mumma, I'll get an oil. Do you want lavender or lemon" lol 👏 It dawns on me, still, after quite some time of having oils in our home, we truly do turn to them for almost everything! We'll give the lemon a go in the rinse cycle Alo, I like your thinking! 🙏🏼#lemonessentialoil#empoweredliving#notoxiclifestyle#

Butter wouldn't melt My soul sister called me fr

Butter wouldn't melt My soul sister called me friday morning ☎️ 2 mins in 📸📸📸 I noticed the adventurous guy on the bench 🌪🌪🌪 So engrossed in his work, diligently working his hands
through the butte. " Squish, squash, squish!" he commentated. 💫💫💫 In the same way that you'd work buuter and flour together when making scones. The old version of me would have been all precious about this! ☄️☄️☄️ But this new chick 🌈☀️🌈
Ahhh no ✨✨✨ I could see the delight in his eyes, sensel the connections happening. It's just butter I thought
No point bothering over a bit of squashed butter🤷‍♀️ So I chose to carry on in the moment - connecting with my friend. 🌹🌹❣️❣️ Think they call this surrender! 👏👏👏 It feels so good, so much freedom to be 🦋🦋🦋 We went from butter, to Tutira Mai Nga Iwi singing, to tummy painting - all before breakfast ! Living and loving the journey 🙏🏼
Not tip toeing through life
But making our mark where ever we go 💥
Within the fullness and totality of this amazing gift called life 💖💖💖#freedom#surrender#chillmumma#magicalbeings#earthchild#freedomseeker#

I got me a new dress 👗
Not a dressy dress

Cosy material We decided to venture out last week
Alo had a hair appointment ... in the big smoke
Tuakau
A perfect opportunity to dress up 💃🏻💃🏻👏👏
On went the dress 👗 Alo "Mumma, that dress, wow Mumma" Ohhhhhh this is going well me's thinks 🙏🏼
Alo "Mumma, that dress is lovely, its kinda like your dressing down" 💥 😉😉😉 Mmmmmmm not really what I was after
But I'll take it - lol ✨ Did I wear it town???
What do you reckon? Of course I did 🦉
I felt good in my dress ⚡️ Because its all about the feels! 🌹 Don't you reckon it feels great to dress up for occasions you usually wouldn't? #thatdress#mummasrockingit#honouryourbody#feelingdivine#
