Sometimes breaking free requires us to set new and clear boundaries with ourselves and others. By accepting certain behavior that doesn’t feel right, you allow yourself to receive less in return.

Instead stand up for yourself and recognize your self-worth. Speak your truth and that will set you free!

Sometimes we intentionally block abundance and flow of desires being realized, because we’re waiting for a certain time or someone else to be the answer to our prayers, so we choose to hide rather than show up completely as ourselves.

Instead choose ways you can show up completely every day. Expand on this practice so that your authentic self and passion for life begin to conquer your fears and excuses. Take responsibility for what you want!

Sometimes we obsess over a certain outcome happening or [Continue Reading...]

Laos - GAdventures SE Asia Tour - 2/2012

Sacrificing anything and everything to get my book proposal done, that’s how passionate I was about it. Though, I never realized how this promise, the stress and major sleep deprivation (consistently getting less than 5/6 hours) would impact my health. Sure, my daily dose of green juice and eating more of an alkaline diet kept the flu and even strep throat away when my sister, Amanda, came down with it. But my body couldn’t recover and it absolutely needed to.

Never mind, the warning signs to change something or to take a sick day: the irritability, not being able to think straight, and my heart racing on exhaustion overdrive that it had difficulty shifting down a few gears!

Yes, I survived, though the lack of sleep is nothing to be proud of. [Continue Reading...]

Sarina as a Class Speaker for High School Seniors at Half Hollow Hills West, Dix Hills, NY 4/2014

Impressive and so very fortunate! Those were my thoughts on learning how world traveled the High School Students are from Half Hollow Hills West when I spoke with them last week! I went in assuming I may need to convince them to get a plane to see another country. Well, I so underestimated the response I would get from asking the question, how many of you have traveled out of the country?

Nearly half the class of 40 students! And the places they’ve already visited: France, England, Germany, Canada, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Israel, Germany, Mexico, Dominican Republic, and Aruba. One student has even decided to postpone college and enrolled into a year-long travel program!

Simply A-MAZING and such a courageous decision!

I continued on with the discussion sharing with the seniors how I’ve [Continue Reading...]

Johnston Canyon in Alberta, Canada - 8/2013

Ever try to call in what you desired to only have it disappear from your life, right before you had a chance to really experience all the magnificence of that moment, relationship, or opportunity? It feels so incomplete, so wrong, so unfair, so awful, and so heartbreaking. And you just miss it and would do about anything to get it back. This definitely happens. Many of us have been there. I’ve definitely been there on numerous occasions –with relationships, job opportunities, a dream finally about to be realized, then I lose it and I’m devastated.

Really the key here is to know: Just as you could bring forth or manifest what you want, at the same time you can manifest failure or disappointment shortly thereafter. How so? With internal blocks, like [Continue Reading...]

Kripalu Center Retreat 6/2013

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always struggled with my desire to be perfect and accepted by others. Out of that need, came this enormous pressure and self-criticism when I wasn’t meeting those impossible expectations. Another self-limiting belief that I’ve given into has been the, “I’m not good enough” feeling. Then at times, I’ve literally torture myself when I’ve made a mistake by obsessing over what happened, rather than letting it go.

Does any of this seem familiar to you? One thing’s for sure, I know I’m not alone here with this negative self-talk. Maybe you can relate to one of these or have a different negative self-talk you tell yourself.

Sometimes getting to the root of the problem helps us understand why we think and do certain things. Though [Continue Reading...]
