Empower With Laura

  Good morning followers!   It's been a while since I've posted. I've delved deeply into Victoria Hawkins' Shamanic Life Coaching on Transformation Academy. Let's just say... If you are into nature, crystals, customs, learning about your chakras, learning about what stones, flowers, and colors go with them and why, this is the perfect kind of coaching for you! Anyway, here's a snippet from today's class that truly resonated personally with me.  This is Entitled If I Were a Tree: Here's Victoria's Guided Meditation: If you were a tree,  what kind of tree would you be?  🌳 Let’s embark on a  guided visualization  inspired by Victoria Hawkins. Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and let your imagination soar: Roots : Imagine your roots sinking deep into the earth, anchoring you firmly. Feel the nourishing soil cradle you, providing stability and connection. Trunk : Picture your trunk—strong, resilient, and weathered by time. Is it thick and gnarled li...

  Good morning, followers!         This is an opportunity to gather.... stories you've been told from   family members,  friends, teachers, counselors, mentors, etc. These are stories we tell ourselves about ourselves or repeat about ourselves from others that aren't ours.

If I feel it, I act on it but so differently than from the defect of pride or out of a need of approval.  Also, if something is revealed to me that it's no longer healthy or working for me, I no longer hold onto it for "dear ...

 Good morning, followers, This part of the Spiritual Coaching reminds me so much of my early days in early Trauma Work. Here's the questions and prompts. I'll also give you examples of my real-life answers! 1. Where am I at right now both high and low? High: I'm at the healthiest point of understanding in my recovery that I have my own opinions, thoughts, feelings, and reactions as do others. I don't have to fix, manipulate or control in order to have a relationship. Low: Boundaries: Recognizing I'll always have boundaries I have to set in my home and anywhere I take myself. I can detach with love and respect myself and the other person. 2. What has currently been happening in my life highs and lows? Highs: Moving forward with changes. Replaced entire heating system in my house, putting up floating shelves, painted entire inside of house. Lows: Weeding out what causes me pain, trauma or sucks energy out of me or my life. Don't recognize it at first. Don't tr...
