Day 11 of New Year, New Me

January 11, 2018 by Suedonym Leave a Comment

So today we’re supposed to focus on abundance. The thing is, what does abundance really mean? I hear it all the time in mindfulness talks. Ask for abundance they say, speak only about abundance. However, what exactly am I asking for when I agree to this abundance? The first definition according to Dictionary.com is as follows: An extremely plentiful or oversufficient quantity or supply. So basically there isn’t an actual thing we are asking for if we ask for abundance alone. So I decided to ask for an abundance of love. Self love, family love, friend love, planet love and whatever else I could think of. You know what, that sufficed for now. I chose love because, well I think we all could use a bit more love, and there’s never too much right? With that being said, I offer this affirmation for abundance, which I repeat to myself as much as possible whenever it comes to my:

God lives, moves and being is within me.

Repeat this affirmation at least 3 times in the morning, afternoon and at night and see what starts to happen.

Day 4 of New Year, New Me

January 4, 2018 by Suedonym Leave a Comment

ylang ylang essential oil

Smell is the theme for day 4 and I gotta say, it’s kind of a big deal to me. I cannot stand bad smells, like ever and I’ve always been very conscious of my own smells. But in this case, it’s more in reference to smelling the beautiful scents that surround us, with intention. Perhaps you have some essential oils that you can diffuse. Or maybe you can buy some flowers and have a sniff. Some things to keep in mind are how you feel after smelling certain scents. For instance, lavender promotes a restful sleep, while vanilla lifts your mood, and orange boosts your mood. My personal favorite is ylang ylang can help soothe an overactive mind. What’s not to love? So folks, get to sniffing…mindfully.

Fall in New England

October 30, 2017 by Suedonym Leave a Comment

I am officially going to say it’s fall. While I do love this season, I think it has to do with growing up in New England. I was very lucky to witness the leaves change from green to yellow and brown. I used to dislike raking leaves, but now I see the true beauty in even that. The changing of the season is always very spiritual for me. It’s a time to reflect and recalibrate. Look at what you’ve been doing and where you’d like to go. I lie to take a step outside of myself and really look at what’s going on. Almost like spring cleaning, but in life. It’s really therapeutic and I suggest it to everyone.

One technique I like to do is wake up with the sun, sit near a window and watch it rise. Sit silently, close my eyes and reflect. Sometimes it’s nice to have a friend with you, family member, or significant other. The extra energy really adds something special. It’s a very sacred thing, but watching the sun rise is just so amazing. If you try this technique, I’d love to know, feel free to comment about it below.

Mindful Makeup!

I absolutely love Colourpop Cosmetics! They make high quality makeup, with a small price tag. I originally tried them out when I heard of a flash sale the brand was having storewide. The California based brand was giving folks a chance to buy their goods for as little as 4 dollars for a lippie. Of course I had to give them a shot. I’m so glad I did. It’s been love ever since. Welp, the brand launched a limited edition line of crystal infused products. Nothing that is crazy new in the beauty industry. Why I’m so hyped is that they made it affordable! The lineup includes priming and setting sprays, highlighter, and lip balm. Well I’m happy to say I have become a proud owner and although I still don’t have the products in my hand, I will soon. I opted for the complete collection of the Rose Quartz infused selection, I also bough the setting and priming sprays that incorporated amethyst, aquamarine, and aventurine. I plan to post a video on my experience with the products, so be on the lookout for that! Final word: Makeup is often said to have transformative powers, well now folks can try it out without dropping tons of money.

Her Thoughts: Peaceful Reflection

June 16, 2017 by Suedonym Leave a Comment

Did you peep my jail yard pose? Only thing is I’m smiling…not very “hard” of me. But this post isn’t about my pose. I wanted to talk about something deeper. The importance of reflection. Ever since I was 18 I have been living in large cities. From NYC to Paris, and I tend to visit major cities where my friends and family live. One common factor I have noticed during my travels and residence is this. We must all take time to reflect. Especially when living in large cities, where we can feel like we’re all on top of each other.

My personal advice would be to take a walk. Not the kind where you are exercising, although those are needed as well, but one where you lose yourself. No matter the season, just go. Lose yourself and explore your thoughts. If that doesn’t seem appealing, try meditation. However, meditation can be intimidating or seem too “fro-fro” for some. Therefore, do something that will let you lose your mind for a bit and get centered. It’s worth it, I do it often and I suggest you try it out. See where you end up!
