Notice the Sparkle

12/24/23 • 6 min

A few weeks ago, we took a drive up to Mount Rainier with the kids and on our way up, Hunter, my 5-year old exclaimed, “WOW look at the snow sparkling!”

The bright white walls of snow piled on the side of the highway indeed were glistening in the sunshine like tiny crystals sparkling.

I wouldn’t have noticed it, but children are so present they notice every detail of Life.

What if we could sprinkle a little bit of that childlike wonder and presence throughout our day?

So often we miss the little moments of sparkle because we’re lost in our mind.

When we recycle past stories, rehash limiting beliefs, or spin worries of the future, we create our own suffering and remain stuck in the struggle.

When we’re present, we can notice the sparkle, the magic and joy around us.

Today take moments to pause and notice the sparkle...

Remind yourself of:

· what’s good in your life

· What have you overcome

· Who are you becoming

· What you’re grateful for today and what’s to come

And BONUS... think of 3 people who have added some sparkle to your life when you needed it this year and give them some sparkle by sharing with them how they’ve helped lift you up or brightened your day.

Also, I love hearing from you, so please share with me your sparkle and what you’re grateful for.

Hope you are having a very merry Christmas and happy holidays

Healing from the Loss of a Loved One

The Holidays can be a special time but it can also bring a lot of uneasy emotions such as sadness and grief while missing a loved one. This meditation will help you be with all of your emotions and invite your loved one to be with you during this sacred experience to feel their love and presence. This meditation was vulnerable and you’ll hear me tear up right there with you at the end. You are not alone in your grief.

Through this daily practice of connecting with my dad (who was MY person), I can tell you that this is the biggest way I’ve been able to get through my grief.

I can’t say I’m “healed” (we’re always in process of messy healing when we lose our person, right?), but it’s helped me still feel close to him even though he’s not physically here with me. I feel his guidance every day and am grateful for this practice of getting quiet and tuning into a sacredness that’s available to us all.

When I was in Bali this year for my yoga retreat, I felt my dad’s presence everywhere – in the beauty of Bali, in the signs that I received and in my heart with a warm feeling he was enjoying each moment. It felt so divine with all of the synchronicities!

There was so much healing and magic in Bali, truly there aren’t words to describe it 🌈

Although we can’t all go on a spiritual vacation, we can take moments to create sacred space to feel and invite our loved ones to be with us by:

· asking questions and talking to them

· listening for their wisdom in those quiet moments

· and looking for signs they are still with us in spirit protecting us, loving us and guiding us.

Thank you for being here, rating + reviewing this podcast and sharing it with those you love!

Lots of love,

Audrey

Set aside 10 minutes to listen to TODAY’S MEDITATION to reflect and appreciate who you are and journal:

· What do you want to release/clear?

· What are the lessons you’ve learned?

· What are you most proud of?

· What inspires you about yourself?

· What do you want more of moving forward? (experiences, creations, feelings?)

· What are you appreciating?

lots of love
