EMPOWERING YOUR THOUGHTS


Waking up with a feeling of gratitude towards life is beneficial for our well being. We all have days where we wake up and struggle to find positivity. Reminding yourself of the good things in life will help encourage healthier thoughts to spread throughout your day.
Empowering Ourselves
The phrase "What you think, you become" holds a lot of truth.  We have to be kinder to ourselves to transform and maintain productive thoughts that serve to empower us.

We also need to acknowledge doubtful and depressing thoughts often stem from other peoples actions or words. When I acknowledged this myself, I knew I had to work on my thoughts to rebuild my inner peace.

To affirm positive thoughts, I do these following things:
·  Meditation is continuing to teach me how to calm my thoughts and bring my attention to the present moment.
·  Singing positive songs can be motivating and has a positive influence on my thoughts and mood.
·  Listening to positive podcasts - I intentionally try to listen to either funny or thought-provoking podcast every day whilst I cook or get ready for the day because I'm conscious about what I feed my mind and thoughts.
·  Socialise - I am a certified homebody and enjoy the comfort of my house but I can appreciate the odd occasion where I meet up with my girlfriends and enjoy a good catch up.
·  Reading is important to me, as I benefit from the mental stimulation and the therapeutic effects. 
·  Keep a journal. This is a good way to express yourself. Whenever I struggle to get things out I write and then reflect on what I have written. I also express my gratitude and write self-affirmations to empower my thoughts.
·  Dancing is truly liberating. I dance away and express free movement which improves my mood instantly.
·  Yoga - Yoga benefits the mind, body, and soul because the practices help to calm anxiety and rapid thoughts through combining meditation, physical exercises and breathing. You also learn to focus on your movements which helps you adapt your strength and flexibility as you practice the sequences in the present moment. 

Mindful thinking is important as our thoughts can serve to empower us. Negative thoughts can be detrimental to our well being. This is why we need to be aware of our inside narratives as our ways of thinking hold power, so be kinder to yourself and mindful of others.
Spread the love!

Aromatherapy Oils

Aromatherapy has been practised for thousands of years and has continued to serve us in a variety of ways. The oils are used in medicines, cosmetics, recipes, rituals and spas frequently for their aroma, medicinal, ceremonial and therapeutic benefits. Most recently, essential oils have been used in hospitals as clinical complimentary treatments in patient care. This is a positive sign that shows how marrying modern medicines and holistic services together can greatly help with improving well being.  Emotions Our emotions vary and the feelings we experience can unsettle us at times. Essential oils are useful as we can implement them daily to help us with our emotions. There are oils that help to relax, de-stress, boost mood, and stimulate our senses. One of my go-to oils is Frankincense which serves to help with a number of areas. It is an oil that has the potential to balance hormones and can be used to relieve depression and anxiety symptoms.  Body You

The Gift of Nature

Nature never ceases to amaze me. It offers us a wealth of information; recipes, health benefits, beauty aids etc. There is plenty to learn and appreciate about the gifts of nature. Symbolic Ties  We can personalise seasonal patterns and behaviours by reflecting upon natures symbolic meanings to find comfort from our own perspectives. For example, when you face difficulty it may seem unbearable, but once you take a moment to look outside of yourself, nature proves that things can get better with time and rebirth is often essential. I believe that the same way nature adapts against the odds, we too can do the same. It also amazes me, how cultures relate to nature symbolically. With Feng Shui, for instance, flowers are thought to hold energy and protect. In Florology, however, flowers express messages between people. The Gift Of Aromatherapy  The oils are extracted through different methods to produce precious oils. These gifts are called essential oils

Treat Yourself To Some Time Alone

When I think about coziness, I think about being warm and comfortable. I picture myself centering into tranquility in the comfort of my home. I usually try and make Sunday my lazy day where I let go of any sense of guilt towards not being productive.  To me, it is simply my day to relax, slow down and refuel my energy. Don't get me wrong, I still potter around doing some light tidying or cooking, but it is all done with minimal stress. Setting The Ambience Creating a nice mood helps you feel a sense of harmony within your living environment and allows you to truly feel relaxed and be at ease at home. It is supposed to be your safe zone and the ultimate place to retreat from the outside world. This means you should be conscious about looking after your home so that you can work towards making your space as inviting and comfortable for yourself as possible. Time for You We often have multiple interactions with people daily, whether it is in person, on the phone,
