When will you commit to yourself? 4 Simple Starters!

When will you commit to yourself?

How many times have you asked yourself this before?

You know how much better you feel when you commit to your practices, yet that’s the hardest thing to commit to.

What excuses do you observe ‘get in the way’ of your healthy habits like meditation, yoga, exercise, eating well, etc?

How is it that you know what is good for you, yet you do the bare minimum to get by?

What’s the best excuse you come up with?

As a Shamanic Empowerment Coach, my job is to empower people to commit to themselves and their well being.

Most people come to an empowerment coach not because they aren’t able to commit to external things (job, relationship, family), but rather because they have a tough time committing to the internal process of loving themselves.

I’ve heard every excuse in the book to prevent people from doing good things for themselves.

The most common I hear is “I’m too busy with _______(work, family, travel, kids, etc)”.

This excuse promotes that life is completely out of your control and that you have no say in your life.

Sometimes this means, “I don’t have the skills to prioritize my life.”

Other times this means, “I’m alone and I can’t ask for help.”

Or it could mean, “I need to feel important because I don’t feel good about myself.”

Or, better yet, “I don’t prioritize me.”

In the end, almost any excuse for not practicing your self-care really means, “I don’t truly love and care for myself.”

What’s your belief system around others that care for themselves?

I hear you saying things like that person is ‘selfish’, ‘lazy’ or ‘clearly not busy enough’ when you see them leave work at 5p and go to the gym.

I feel you getting jealous of others who dance in the fields, play in the woods, and sip coffee on the porch overlooking the mountain view.

I see you get mad at your partner when he goes out for a run and you are taking care of dinner.

You are judging and are in fact are upset that you didn’t set time aside for you.

What will it take for you to put yourself first? When will you finally commit to yourself?

What you don’t realize is that when you take care of yourself first, you will have more energy and love to go around.

When you fill your cup with prayer, meditation, affirmations, gratitude and self-care practices, you will have more patience and generosity available for others.

When you get clear on your priorities that fulfill your life, then your happiness is contagious and magnifies in others.

As your realize your dreams and actualize your visions, everyone around you benefits.

You don’t have to do it alone. Enroll, enlist, share and integrate your self-love and self-care practices into your life to include others and make it fun!

What’s stopping you from committing to yourself?

The next time you opt out from you, ask yourself what’s in the way.

Can you commit to yourself NOW?

Here’s 4 simple starters!

1. Notice your emotions and thoughts when you are NOT practicing self-care.

When you are not choosing  YOU notice your emotions. What old stories, wounds, and habits are stopping you from loving yourself? What “can’t” you do and why?

2. In the moment, CHOOSE LOVING YOU!

What will bring you (and ultimately others) more love right now?

3. Prioritize.

What’s really important?  What will make you more happy in the present and can the other things wait?

4. Schedule your self-care.

You book appointments for everything else, why not for yourself? Make non-changeable, non-negotiable commitments/appointments for YOU to meditate, exercise and fill your cup.

Bonus Tip:  Have fun!!  Your life is yours to have and do what you will with it!

How To Clear Toxic Relationships

I invite you to participate in a very powerful shamanic meditation process that will shift you out of the energy drain of a toxic relationship and help you forgive and reclaim your power.

Last year, I surveyed this newsletter list and I received some very interesting information about what you need and want.

One of the top challenges that you face is the need to clear toxic relationships, past lovers, and sexual shame.

As a survivor of sexual trauma, who harbored a lot of shame and guilt, I have first-hand experience of this process.

What I recognized during my own healing process is that the path to healing was to:

1) allow my anger/rage to surface
2) practice radical self-forgiveness
3) recognize the God-seed/Divinity in that human as your teacher

4) find appreciation for the teaching itself

In allowing your anger and rage to surface you unearth the toxic energies that are latent in your body. These emotions that we hold onto literally poison the body and create disease.

I love the practice of hitting a pillow or screaming in your car!

To practice radical self-forgiveness, in this meditation you will have the opportunity to speak your truth. To allow what was unsaid to be revealed.  This helps the mind to finish the process that was left incomplete. In this we don’t beat ourselves up for wishing something were different.

As part of this meditation, you will be asked to imagine into the Highest version of this person, the Higher Self, Soul, Divinity that exists in this person.

This powerful shamanic process maybe the first time that you are able to shift your perception to seeing and understanding the Divine teaching and the skills that you learned as a result of this relationship.

This is potent.

I’ve offered great results to my healing clients for a decade.

I have worked with hundreds of clients through pain and suffering.

I have seen instant results in my clients.

You can reclaim you personal power through this shamanic meditation.

If you have experienced sexual shame, guilt, or have someone to forgive, then experience this powerful shamanic meditation process that will shift you out of these negative frequencies immediately.Join your sisters on Wed Feb 21st at 1p in the Shamanic Healing Arts Facebook Group #shamanicpriestess and catch my live Facebook video.

I help entrepreneurial women heal their past, awaken the inner shaman, and unleash their priestess power to actualize their vision.

Come join a circle of priestesses heal in the collective frequency of love!
addiction

What’s your addiction?

What’s your addiction? 
Food. Sex. Drugs. Shopping. Facebook. Caffeine. I am familiar with them all.
Seems as if almost all of my clients have suffered from one form of addiction or another. That’s what brought me to my Shamanic work and to the plant medicines. I’ve been sober now since 2011.
How can you release addiction?
Recently, I had a huge breakthrough with a client, one of the issues she has with herself is being overweight.
As we dive deeper into her family history, we are discovering that her core wound is a story of “needing to hide”. Her family instead of dealing with emotions, had a tendency to escape, hide and shuffle everything challenging under the rug.
Our breakthrough is that she is also hiding beneath her skin, beneath the weight.
In her family they did not express emotions. In fact, they rarely said, “I love you.”  The only way they spent time was around a table with food. She said, “I think food was family.”
Thus, food became her and her family’s way of relating and food was the addiction to hiding from themselves and their emotions.

I looked up the word “addiction” on Psychology Today and found this quote rather fascinating:

“…most addictive behavior is not related to either physical tolerance or exposure to cues. People commonly use drugs, gamble, or shop compulsively in reaction to being stressed, whether or not they have a physical addiction. Since these psychologically based addictions are not based on drug or brain effects, they can account for why people frequently switch addictive actions from one drug to a completely different kind of drug, or even to a non-drug behavior. The focus of the addiction isn’t what matters; it’s the need to take action under certain kinds of stress.”

Some addiction is chemical dependency, but interesting to recognize that most of our society lives under the imprint of stress, so no wonder why we are all addicted at some level or another to these non-drug behaviors.

What if we could unplug and remove the stress?

My client and I are working on creating great habits that she can use as her go to’s whenever she’s in a state of overwhelm, triggered or emotional and wants to reach for food or hide beneath the stress.
As she has been managing her stress and meditating almost daily, she’s not only feeling way better, she’s loving herself more, making huge shifts in her life and releasing tons of judgement.  She’s totally on fire.

Unleash the Priestess + Thrive!®

Breakthrough your limiting beliefs, unleash your power and share your healing gifts with the world!

Can you relate to the following?

  • You know you have great potential, yet you experience self-imposed limiting beliefs about your worth and what you deserve. Your “I’m not good enough” story prevents you from being in your power.

  • You know your current job is not working for you and that you want to work in service of people’s healing and do something you love, yet you get paralyzed with fear, worry, or doubt around money and stability.

  • You are experiencing a life shift (i.e. divorce, career, relationship), and you have trouble trusting yourself, your intuition and the unknown and need healing and mentorship.

  • You are awakening to your path of service as a full time mind-body healer or yoga teacher, yet you don’t know how to step forward into this role because you think you lack the skills or don’t trust your ability.

  • As a child you had visible, audible and tangible connections to Spirit, but you lacked the guidance in the physical world to work with these energies with purpose and intention.

  • You know intellectually that the Universe supports you, yet you may feel alone, unsafe, unaccepted and are seeking a spiritual community that supports and understands you.

  • You have many creative, entrepreneurial visions, yet you find yourself disorganized, overextending yourself, procrastinating, and overwhelmed and nothing gets done.

  • You have worked with therapy for traumatic experiences in your life, yet you are open to that one more therapeutic piece that creates the spiritual connection that finally shifts you out of guilt, shame and grief to truly forgive.

Client Testimonials

“I came to Nicole at a time when I was spinning my wheels. I’d made some big changes in my life which unexpectedly brought on anxiety and confusion, rather than the predicted increase in day-to-day happiness. Working with Nicole, we teased out what truly fulfills me and brings me joy and peace.  Not only that, she helped me make small changes and complete short exercises each week that ensured my anxiety decreased and I was making progress toward uncovering my truest of dreams.  The weekly exercises are life long tools that I will not only continue to use, but also treasure. Most importantly, Nicole helped me to come up with an attainable plan to get me out of my current situation and doing what I love.  All in all, I’m blown away by how much and how quickly Nicole was able to help me. The best part is she taught me how to better serve myself and my dreams for the future.  If you have any inkling to try this, do it!  This is one of the best things I’ve done for myself. Nicole is gifted not only in her ability to heal and nurture, but to make things happen.  When I look back on the past 6 months, I view coaching with Nicole as the catalyst that re-united me with my purpose. Powerful stuff if I do say so myself!”

~Michelle Case, Sales Executive turned World Traveler

“I want to write a special massive dose of gratitude to Nicole,  she’s been my coach over the last 12 weeks.
Nicole has been masterfully:
*helping me to reclaim my power
*guiding me back to my true vision for my life
*providing me practices and inquiries to get grounded and aligned with my truth
*unlocking strength and insight that felt dormant
*navigating with me a new sense of self that’s both softer and more expanded and true
*giving me permission to trust myself and my intuition

This past year has been the most tumultuous year of my life …getting married, moving, launching The Pleasure Path business, letting go of most of my family in our current way of relating, doing deep healing work with my teachers, letting go of all yoga teaching and reiki healing clients, changing my name to Violet…

I’ve never felt so much loss and I’ve never felt such a call to belong to myself, to get clear on what I want to create, and to be at choice. Nicole has helped me to find my power internally and connect to earth and God…to celebrate who I am versus running away or jumping out…to persevere and build faith. Nicole your guidance and wisdom are incredible and I’m so grateful for you !!!”

~Violet Lange, Harvard Grad, CEO of The Pleasure Path

For over 10 years I’ve been studying, teaching and mentoring with highly respected teachers in the US and Peru. I’ve worked with thousands of students and clients over this time in their healing process.

As a survivor of abuse and sexual trauma, I’ve come to understand through my own deep healing journey that we all have very specific core wounds programs in our subconscious mind that we need to work through with attention, accountability, compassion, sincerity, and love.

I’ve become highly adept sensitive and intuitive through this journey and thus very skilled at customizing programs with incredibly transformational results.

Your journey begins with a deep alchemical healing process to discover your subconscious programming or core beliefs.

These programs affect all levels of your development through the architecture of the chakra energy system.

Each week we examine a new chakra through this programming lens to create and understanding of our beliefs and how that’s affecting our body-mind-spiritual balance.

Let’s create your life vision with tangible, actionable steps so you can thrive.
This is a holistic and integrated approach to coaching and healing. These spiritual teachings are grounded in processes that create real tangible results.

trump

#BeAuthentic Election Results

#BeAuthentic is my Mantra for November. I’m actually in shock about Trump. But in all honesty, you gotta hand it to him. His attacks on the governmental system, have uprooted some of the underpinnings of hate, narcissism, racism, greed and avarice that exists still within our society, merely hidden under the mask of democracy. As a KPFK announcer recently said, he appeals to the beast within us. Front and center we are witnessing the true nature of duality in our country completely divided. This is the struggle with light and dark, good and bad and all the shit in between that we are doing as healers. This is the work of awakening the collective consciousness.

As I’ve been leaning into the election and its simultaneous chaos, I’ve been listening to all the corruption, deception, rejection and spinning. As ugly as it is, at least we are illuminating this shadow giving us as light-workers the opportunity to move our attention toward magnifying the light!

This election has taught me to be more upfront with how and what I communicate. I think it is teaching all of us the fine lines between truth/non-disclosure and deception/perception.

We channel our own versions of illusion through social media daily. Not everyone is as happy and put together as it seems. There are many people calling out for help beneath the surface of the fluff.

The more honest I am with myself these days, the more uncomfortable I seem to get. And, I really like feeling uncomfortable now because to me it means I’m creating breakthroughs. I hope this too is how we can view what’s happening with our country. Let’s use this challenge as gift to reveal the deeper truths for all of us.

Whenever I’m confused and in battle with my lower mind, I turn to prayer and my healing practices – yoga, meditation, Reiki, and Shamanism. These help me to understand my own truths. I will sit in debate with the lower frequencies for a while until I feel my heart and the buddhi awareness pierces the veil of illusion.

When you are in battle, go within.
Take a journey to your heart.
Open yourself to more light.
Find the truth.
