I’m a part of this amazing online group of women.   The support, passion and love there is phenomenal.  After years of all of us being ‘together’ sharing everything you can think of, something crazy happened.  We decided to be totally visually honest about how we looked.  (keep in mind this is a private group)  At first some of the thinner women posted shots of themselves in their tiny bathing suits or underwear, and then others did.  Finally some of us rounder ladies posted.  The idea at first was shocking for me.  I couldn’t imagine showing what I daily hide.  Then I got braver, and prouder, and more beautiful and I took a snapshot and shared.  I’m still riding that high of being honest with who I am, and the amazing support I received.  It was also so beautiful to see such gorgeous, real not-airbrushed bodies.

What a beautiful way to embrace spring, by baring it all (well a lot of all. lol).

hmmm.  I’m trying to figure out how to encourage everyone here to have the same experience,  and somehow I don’t feel that my encouraging all of you lovely ladies to post nudie pictures on the internet is a good way to “dare yourself” and feel like a goddess.  hee hee.   I guess you are just going to have to trust me.  If I’m a goddess, then you must be, too.  Embrace your beauty and the magic of your body.

And if you have any other (legal) ideas on how to dare yourself, please share.  : )

tea – it keeps me going

We are off for a week of fun – off to visit my lovely inlaws.

This morning I will be frantically finishing packing with I am sure tons of grace, patience and aplomb ; )   and of course with bunches of help from my 17 month old.  I will try to pop in later in the morning before I leave and then will catch up in the evening.

Have a beautiful, magical day.

 

Marvelous Monday Magic! April 2, 2012

The Spicy Fairy!

To start this month I’m allowing a hall-pass for narcissism and talk about why we love ourselves. Simple as that, because confidence and loving ourselves is magic in itself! :)

My-Love Magic;

~ shopping this weekend and finding new styles to compliment my figure

~ my first day at my new job where I realized that I’m a fast learner

~ working out with a manageable diet makes me feel progress!

~ I got an A- on an AP Lit test; that has never happened this year! lol

~ I just feel good about myself, which is really refreshing!

Take a moment to realize why you love yourself – it may seem silly, but it definitely helps your outlook on life. Have a beautiful day and pamper yourself with love! <3

Isn’t synchronicity so very, very cool?  (Please try to follow my train of thought – there is a connection; )  I’ve had some pieces of ideas mulling around the back of my head this year and I just started connecting them up, and now you are the lucky recipients of them ; )

You are a star.  You are extraordinary.  That was the sign (or something like that)on the wall of my third grade classroom.  It was 29 years ago, but I remember feeling both special and not impressed with the teacher’s surface attempts at raising my self-esteem.

This fall, soon after the Occupy Wall Street events started happening a FB friend posted something to the effect that if you don’t physically go and support the movement, you are against it.  The thread went on and on a bit: The whole, ‘you are either with me, or against me’ idea. I felt pressured, uncomfortable for a bit, and misunderstood for quite a while.

This weekend, my baby girl woke up quite sick.  Her eyes were hooded.  Her lips turned down and she shlumped in her sling.  I am so very thankful that I was able to help her along with homeopathy.  Sometimes energy medicine is quiet and slow, other times it so quickly assists in healing that it feels like magic.  Again and again I gave her her remedy and she would perk up, and be her little shining self, and then she would get punky.  We went through that pattern all day on Saturday and more subtly on Sunday.  My skills were able to help my darling baby girl feel better, and probably heal faster.  How star-shiny cool is that?

This summer, I read part of a book by Caroline Myss called Sacred Contracts.  One point of the book is that we all have our jobs and lessons in this world to fulfill and we all have our strengths to fulfill them.  One of the things I loved about this book is that we are not all the same.  We are all different, with different abilities and skills.  So you don’t have to have a beautiful singing voice.  You don’t have to remember everyone’s birthdays.  And, I don’t have to go on marches to protest something that I feel strongly about.  (I will leave that to my once-hippy in-laws, and some of my amazing friends, and all of the patient and wonderfully stubborn people who Occupied this year).  You don’t need to be able to hear flowers talk to you, or know how to use reiki.  Listening to flowers, moving energy – that is my job and I’m happy to share it with you either as a recipient or a fellow lover of energy. We just need to follow our soul’s quest, discover what makes our own stars shine, and share that light with the world.

And, you don’t need to be far along and firmly in your quest – testing, experimenting, FAILING – it’s all important.

I felt such a release and sense of power and clarity when I realized all of this.  I don’t have to be everything – just beautiful shiny me. 

If you wish, I would love to hear what your shiny starry self loves to do.

MEM:

~Music class with sweet girl.  Oh, she was so much fun last week.  I’ve been looking forward to another one since then.

~ quiet space – We just got back from almost a week of being away.  It was truly wonderful, but so is my home.  I’m glad to be back.

~ a clean space – I’m still loving and appreciating all the work my mother did, cleaning up after our messy selves.

~a job well done – The Peachy Sneaks struck again, and we had so much fun doing it.

Have a star shiny day!

* sitting in silence (perfect me-time, staring at a wall)
* non-alone-time
* cleaning our space
* getting things done at a some what leisurely pace
* the chocolate chip cookie experience – lol – i keep buying the ‘wrong’ ones. they’re not bad, just not the ones I want, but I get to eat ‘em in the process of finding The One
* the luxury of a chocolate chip cookie ;p
* hugs – i can’t get enough!
* random giggles
* finger mustaches
* Me! I just love her ;p

Full Moon Loving Ourselves Magic! November 10, 2011

The Star Fairy

Did you see the Full Moon last night, magical people?  With Jupiter shining brightly  nearby?  Now is a time of fullness and brightness… what has grown from the intention seeds you planted two weeks ago?  What big feelings are happening in your world?  I hope you all are shining your true natures, your true beauty on everyone around you and out into the world!  May I suggest you lovingly bask in your own glory and appreciate your own shining?   Then share it with us here!

MEM:

The thin clouds blowing over the Full Moon and Jupiter last night as I took my dog out for a late stroll… it was so bright!

My dog, the reason I get outside a few times every day/night, and see so much natural beauty I would miss if I were indoors!

Enjoying having my hair at a still long but much easier to deal with length… and how good I look with it down!  (Almost didn’t write that, but given what I chose for today’s topic, I need to, eh?) (Yay me!)

Hot water with lemon and hot Red Zinger tea… my morning drinks!

Wasting less and less time waiting for other people, and just going ahead and doing what I want!  Feels great!

Finding the gift in dh’s complaints… feeling the possibility of some good changes coming!

The lovely warm weather we’ve been having!

Getting stuff done outside yesterday, and making the garage more usable!  I wouldn’t call it organized, but it is much improved!   Yay me!

Identifying stuff to sell, give away, recycle or toss as needed… Making room for creating!

Looking in a book for a particular passage, and finding I’d left a bookmark right at that point, many moons ago!  Like a lovely gift I sent to my future self.

Making a Full Moon commitment to love myself, be myself, and to create!!!

 

Please share your bright shiny  magic with us all today!  And may the Moon shine joy upon you all!

 

I’m SO proud of myself for… 6/14/11 June 14, 2011

My Everyday Magic!

Moon Note: Waxing, full tomorrow!

Sometimes I forget about how far I’ve come, and feel like I’m getting nowhere. It helps so much to remember that there is simply NO such thing as getting nowhere, as we are constantly moving forward whether we like it or not, and constantly learning too, whether we are aware of it or not. I find comfort in believing that no matter what I “get done” (or don’t), my soul is living out its purpose in this lifetime. And for that I am grateful to be alive, to have this body to experience this sensual journey. So without further adieu,

I am SO proud of myself for…

*Loving myself, even when something (or someone) gets me down

*Constantly re-deciding, recommitting to ME, to my purpose, my joy

*The wonderful things I am creating in my business, my art, my home, my relationships

*Taking on the role of mother to my two beautiful and wise children, who if nothing else, have clearly come here to teach me how to have TRUE patience, and how to truly forgive and release guilt/judgment/shame.

*Caring about myself and other people

*Being willing to act Self-ish-ly so that I may be better able to serve in making the world a better place…it always begins within.

*Being willing to accept and honor my “lows” or better put, my “flows” in the ebb and flow, trusting that it is inevitable that I will soon be ebb’in’. And when I’m riding the high wave ebbin’ I enjoy it in the moment, not worrying about when the next “flow” will be, and also not panicking when I start to feel like I’m headin’ down the flow. Does this make sense? Lol!

*Taking risks that ultimately feel good (though sometimes terrifying!)

*My willingness to learn from my mistakes and find the blessing in everything!

*Getting a good feel for consistent progress in my business, doing something pretty much everyday to stay in my momentum. I’m merging my art and creative events into one business…Right now I’m working on designing a logo, announcing my first ever Creative Intensive Workshop next month, and lots and lots of writing and getting clear about my vision, purpose, my peeps, my WHY… Its coming together beautifully!

*All the awesome art I have created and continue to create! I know I am meant to make art and will honor this creative power beyond the day my body is ready to be traded for a new one. ;-)

***************************************

WOW, that’s more than I intended to write, see, once you get flowing in the mindset of finding the magic, by law of the universe, more and more magic simply MUST come into your awareness/experience.

So what makes you proud of yourself? What are some of the things you appreciate about yourself that maybe no one else seems to notice? Take some time to REALLY appreciate YOU and how far you’ve come in your journey. I can assure you that you’ve come much further than you think. ;-) Love you ALL, have a beautiful and magical day today and every day!

 

Sparkly Saturday Magic! January 15, 2011

Filed under: "Falling in Love with ME" Magic! — flirtyfairy @ 2:46 am

Flirty Fairy in the snow!

Flirty Fairy here again! I found my wings and I have been flirting up a storm in them! Last time, the Flower Faerie pointed out the importance of flirting with yourself – SO true! I often find myself looking in the mirror and winking, or noticing how cute I am and saying, “Hey pretty girl…” You might think this seems cocky, to which I say, “Of course it is!” And there is absolutely NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. Too often, our culture’s good intentions of unselfishness have the negative consequence of making people feel bad about feeling good about themselves.

Let me ask you this ~ if your spouse gave you a compliment, or your mom did, or your child, or a friend, or a stranger on the street, how would it make you feel? And if you gave someone else a compliment, how would you expect him/her to feel? Great, right? So why not cut out the middle man? ;) Your challenge for the week is to look in the mirror and give yourself a flirty wink! Pick something you love about what you see and mention it. “What beautiful eyes I have! What a great smile!” Or if it’s a full-length mirror, “Check out that butt!” and see if it doesn’t make your day just a little bit brighter.

My Magic for Today:

* Getting together with some super cool knitting friends and doing a yarn crawl!

* Really feeling great about my jobs – my little girlie is being SO super cute, sweet, and affectionate! And I was able to calm down a freaking-out baby and make her mom feel a lot better.

*Getting excited about pushing myself professionally!

*Spending lots of cozy time with my beloved, who, by the way, loves to knit!

*Eating delicious homemade Belgian waffles – yup, he made those too!

*Enjoying the snow from the warmth and comfort of my own house, without any place to rush off to.

*Making plans to get together with friends for some super sparkly fun!

*Working on all my fabulous knitting projects! I am a flirty knitter – can’t commit to only one project at a time, what fun would that be? ;)

Post your magic below!

 

“Falling in Love with ME” Magic! 11/10/10 November 10, 2010

Filed under: "Falling in Love with ME" Magic! — Kate Street @ 9:12 am

 

The Sparkle Fairy!

“Falling in Love with ME!”

I just heard that the fastest way to change EVERYTHING around me is to fall in love with myself. This source (who is Kryon, in case you’re interested) says that by simply falling in love with ourselves, the most deadly viruses can go into spontaneous remission (among many other wonderful things) because the whole energy around us changes. Now, I’ve always known this on some level, but when I heard it this time it made me realize how much of the day I actually spend NOT loving myself. So today I’m committing myself to falling head over heels in love with ME! I’m going to stop the unloving chatter in my head that says “I’m not good enough, I should be doing this, I shouldn’t be doing that, why can’t I figure this out” and all the rest of that crap. And I’m going to commit myself to writing at least ONE thing a day that I love about myself for at least 30 days! I know how well this worked when I did it for my beloved as part of Sparkle Mission #2 ~ I can’t wait to see what it does for me!

What I LOVE about ME!

* I LOVE that I birthed both my boys at home all by myself with just my hubby. I love that I was open enough to trust my intuition and know this was the safest, most joyful way (for me) to give birth to my children. They were peak experiences that were pure magic. When I think back to these moments, it helps me realize I can do ANYTHING (even if other people think I’m crazy!) as long as I believe.

* I love how playful I can be with my children ~ tickling them, laughing with them and generally being silly. When I’m feeling energetic and happy, I really love how spontaneously joyful I can be and so-in-the- moment with my little boys.

* I love that I’m really good at co-creating and manifesting (even before I knew what those terms meant!). Ever since I was little I’ve had an inner knowing and an inner belief in myself that has always steered me well. I’m so grateful for this.

* I love that I smile at strangers and am generally friendly in nature. I’m not shy about complimenting people or telling them how much they mean to me.

* I love my green eyes, my pretty hands, and youthful appearance!

My Everyday Magic

* Deciding to fall in love with myself!

* Realizing I’m pretty great!

* ME! (I just love her!) ;)

Tell me, what do you love about YOU? ‘Cause I love you already!
