Listen "Week 43 - Self-Love is a Practice"
Episode Synopsis
ALL THE LINKS - LINKTR.EE/BARBARAFAISON
My mission is to share my voice to heal, educate and inspire. I have learned that for me self-love is practice, like most of life. My mom used to tell me to “pat myself on the back” and I know that reminder from her still runs through my head and it does help me have more love and compassion for myself. Saying I’m proud of myself for whatever is happening is another way I express love to myself.
A few weeks ago I received what I call a “digital download”. This might be an idea, a reminder or the title of my next meditation. As I began to stir in my bed, I started to receive a self-love meditation, so I grabbed my phone. Let me say this, I don’t sleep with my phone in the bedroom. My husband brings it to me when he leaves for work, so when I get a download, I can grab it. Anywho…I usually open my One Note App and begin speaking what I received into the app. Then I edit it and start the recording and testing process.
Special thanks to Laura Mandelson, Tracey and Mike Ramsey, Pam Zicca, Yvette Lee, Jennifer Medders, Hilal Tamrat, and Susan Kelley-Delaine for testing this meditation. The music is by Yvette C. Lee.
You can take a listen here or on my YouTube channel under videos. I’d love for you to leave a comment or emoji if you do. And if you haven’t subscribed to my YouTube channel, why not? It’s free!
Following guidance is an act of self-love. I am proud of myself for being ready, open and willing to hear guidance and accept the guidance when received.
What does self-love look like for you at this moment? You may reply to this newsletter/blog post or you can reach me at [email protected]. If social media is easier for you to reach out, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn are best.
The card I pulled for us this moment#8 - QUESTION - What do I DESIRE MORE OF in my life?
Hmmm. That's a really good one. I'm going to ponder that!
If you need a quick breath break you can take one right here.
Thank you for your support and being on this journey with me.
Until next time, keep breathing and do something new.
Be well.
