Sea-to-Sky Mama is based on a foundation that promotes the highest quality of living, loving, and healing. I created my own list of “mantras” to help with my journey through all the crazy stuff life throws your way. My hope is that anyone reading can find a common ground, and if not, then at the very least, encourage you to begin the process of defining your own personal philosophy.
FEELING FREE RIGHT NOW
Thinking of the future is daunting which is why being present is the number one priority. Planning is totally OK, but when your anxiety levels get sky high, it’s time to chill out and take a moment to reconnect with your surroundings. Yogi or not, this can be life’s biggest challenge. Illness or not, thinking of what could possibly happen to you tomorrow spoils your mind and your positivity. The worry wrinkles will continue to deepen if you don’t take action. Stop the voices in your head by finding your own mantra that you can repeat silently, and one that brings you back to reality. Focus in on the now. Feel free exactly where you are. Never rush and see if you can sit still and practice some good cleansing breath.
LOVE TO LOVE
Love shouldn’t hurt. Love shouldn’t judge. Love should heal, and when you love to love, your world becomes brighter. It’s that simple.
MOM LIFE
All I know is that I want to grow alongside my children. I want to guide them while learning from and with them. Still writing on this virtue so stay tuned (first babe due December 9!),
STRENGTH IN INTEGRITY (NOT NUMBERS)
Build your cluster. Build it so it’s filled with love, hope, dedication, and truth, and most importantly, selflessness. Give yourself to each and everyone you cherish in your life. Be available. The same will be returned. Surround yourself with like-minded individuals that support your cause, your change, your goals. No judgement and no bullshit. Just energy, friendship, and support.
EDUCATE AN OPEN MIND
Be educated on what it is you are fighting for. Be open to the endless possibilities that coincide with that fight. When you remain open to anything, your ears and eyes are wide open to take in whatever information is thrown your way.
NEVER FEAR THE UNKNOWN
A nurse once told me: “So many people go on medications because of the fear of the unknown.” To me, knowing your body, recognizing your intuition, and trusting the power it holds, no matter how scary a decision might be, can conquer any fear or any obstacle. Like Ann Boroch says, the body has an innate ability to heal itself. Trust, knowledge, power. Never fear the unknown, because you my darling, have the strength to get through anything. Trust, knowledge, power.
