New Year, New Attitude!!!

Utilize the power of positive thoughts and feelings to manifest your goals and dreams.

Let your inner peace lead the way to creating your universe!

The Christmas gifts have been exchanged, iced sugar cookies have been eaten, and now the New Year’s resolutions have been declared…..So now what? That’s right, how are this year’s declarations and resolutions going to be achieved where so many others in the past have been abandoned by valentine’s day? Let’s make this the year we change our attitudes instead of our plans and goals. Let’s shift how we think and focus on what and how we feel instead.

That’s right, instead of thinking about what you want, think of how you would like to feel. Visualize yourself already possessing the things, goals, dreams, partners, people in your life that you would like to attract and resonate with those feelings. Sit with them and let it maranate. Immerse yourself in how you are feeling now that you have those things. What is the expression on your face? Can you feel the butterflies in your stomach? Find yourself relishing in the fact of accomplishing your goals in order to send positive vibes into the universe that will calibrate louder than any particular list! 

Actually practice the attitude of gratitude before achieving your goals and that will help bring about the exact feeling and wish you are looking for! Seriously, I dare you to try it. It absolutely works!!! For example, if you desire a new home, car, job or mate, actually force yourself to indulge in the feeling of being in the relationship you desire, the job of your dreams, the home of your wildest imagination. Create the picture in your head, create a vision board and everyday submerge yourself in it. While doing this, feel how it is to grab the steering wheel of your new ride. While viewing your vision board shake the hands of your new clients in your new career or job in your mind first so vehemently that your heart feels the grip. Actually feel the interaction and joy of having these things, and the universe will reward you with more of that feeling in actuality, because like energy attracts!!! 

Wrestle the Moon with Desire and Determination!

Put yourself in the picture and truly believe that you are there, and it is just a matter of time before you achieve it. Put a plan in place to set those things in motion and then execute the plan. With hard work, and true faith in the system of the energy-of-attraction and you are certain to make your dreams a reality! Now remember, things may not manifest overnight, and it will be difficult to hold true to your vision- attraction-method, but hold tight, stand firm and stay the coarse. Keep trying and forgive yourself if you have to convince yourself to keep sticking with the plan. It takes time to truly change ideas and attitudes. But trust the process and give yourself the greatest gift of positive thinking, feeling and manifestation!!!

Now get em, 2023 is going to be epic in the most magical way!!

Happy New Year & Happy Holiday Rising

Manifesting a prosperous New Year full of Love and Light for All of Us!!!

4 Quick Tips for Holiday Hosting!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and this year unlike any other year before, families are gathering together with a newfound zest and appreciation for being together! For the last few years, with Covid restrictions and concerns, so many people have forgone their annual traditional gatherings. More than ever people are reaching out to physically be with their family and friends this holiday to embrace one another in person! This means that more than ever while hosting any event we must be focused on the festiveness!!! Yes, yes, yes, go for it. over the top expressions of holiday cheer are exactly what the doctor has called for this year.

Make your Thanksgiving extra thankful with creative decor, games, and new traditions. Set up a photo booth, or have a turkey stroll dance-off… Let your imagination run wild, and create a memorable time for all to share, as we know you are never promised the gift of time.

A few quick tips for people hosting large groups that often get overlooked when making sure the big-ticket items are taken care of:

  1. Make sure to have a variety of activities for everyone to play, just in case of an unfortunate weather-induced blackout. You definitely don’t want to get caught out there in the world of no tv, computer, or x-box without having playing cards, books, board games, and or other fun non-electronic items to entertain with.
  2. Make sure to have more than enough toilet tissue, it is Thanksgiving after all and the food spread is absolutely plentiful and well…. nuff said.
  3. Have a variety of coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and cider options available. It’s really nice to have a hot liquid option available in the chilly months.
  4. Most importantly, HAVE FUN! Don’t forget, the reason you all are gathering together. Prepare ahead of time and try to delegate responsibilities so that one person doesn’t get stuck holding the proverbial bag by missing out on everything because everything falls on them. This is stressful and creates anxiety instead of a good mood. So make sure you commit to spending quality time, relaxing, and enjoying your family instead of just working and making sure everyone is having a great time. Remember teamwork makes the dream work so use this as a bonding moment as well. Create moments and memories of fun and laughter so that you can hold onto them after the holidays are over. Happy Thanksgiving!

XOXO Holiday Rising!
