Hello beautiful souls, Welcome back to #ReviveWritingWednesday Please have a journal handy and your favorite writing tool. Set aside some self time and meditate or just relax with a cup of comfort. >>*<< Take some time to contemplate this prompt. Really do some deep introspection. If you have a judgement about a person it usually means you have some of that trait in yourself and you are rejecting it outright, it could mean it's something you need to work on. >*< This will not be the case for everyone, but it is something to consider. It could be jealousy over someone's success, a want of what they have. It's something you could have too, but you didn't make the choices they did, and you may have regrets about that. Applied to your situation, of course, because your opportunities wouldn't have been the same as theirs. You may feel like you work hard, but they likely work harder and you resent that about them. When it's really just something you are not accepting as a truth. It is your choice how you wish to carry out your actions and how much effort you choose to put in. Perhaps you need to mind your schedule better so that you aren't wasting time. Maybe you need to look at things from a more creative perspective. There are many different factors and situations that this prompt can lead you towards. What came to mind first when you read this? Start there. >*< Be well on your journey. >>*<< #Introspection #selfcare #journal #writingprompts #Journaladdict #writersofinstagram #journalinspiration #instalove #instagood https://www.instagram.com/p/B9Ub_cbnHOe/?igshid=f8k3f1rdixdm

Hello beautiful souls, It's time for another #ReviveWritingWednesday Have a journal and pen handy or use a voice recorder on your phone. Make a cup of comfort and take at least 15min to work with this prompt. >>*<< This can essentially be boiled down to being too agreeable or a pushover. To never being able to stand up for yourself or always having a "victim mentality" of they did this to me and I can't do anything about it. Take responsibility for yourself, your actions and how you communicate. If you do not want to do something, say so, you don't need to give anyone an explanation as to why. It could be that you've already taken on too much, but felt guilty saying no. It's up to you whether or not you wish to help out in any given situation when asked to do something. It could be that you just don't speak up for yourself at all, and always have a partner, family member or friend interject an answer for you. It's one thing to have someone order dinner at a restaurant, it's another to have someone answer a question for you, when you were asked that question directly. You may have been told to be quiet your whole life and may not understand how to speak up for yourself or you may be extremely shy. There are many blogs, podcasts, books and videos on how to build confidence and gain the ability to communicate. How to be assertive without being aggressive. You just have to want to do it and apply the practices to your daily life. >>*<< Be well on your journey. >>*<< #selfcare #journaltherapy #journal #writer #writingwednesday #writersofinstagram #journaladdict #selflove #journalersofinstagram #journaling #journalinspiration #power #instagood https://www.instagram.com/p/B9CadsCHZMk/?igshid=wc2u8i5vq0jh

Hello Beautiful Souls, Welcome to #TeaAndCardsTuesday Please have a journal handy and brew up your favorite cup of tea. Take a few deep breaths and spend some time contemplating this week's message. >>*<< Today's featured deck is the Earth Warriors Oracle by Alana Fairchild Today's featured tea is an Irish Breakfast tea by Chadotea.com >*< #PonoPono - Immeasurable power of the heart way - The heart has the power to heal in a way the mind cannot understand. Do not allow your mind to distract or frighten you. Divine love lives within your heart. A willing heart is all you need to transform any situation that is troubling you. Healing through the heart on any and all issues that have plagued you can and will happen. Let your heart feel the faith it needs to feel so that it can rest in joy. ~*~ #Alakoa - Spirit of the warrior - Though you yearn for peace, you recognise that, without truth, genuine peace can never be. Even if it triggers an upheaval of transformation, the need to set things right is strong in you. This is the inner drive of the spiritual warrior, the compelling soul need to uphold truth, goodness, and justice. Do not give up. If you feel hopelessness, despair, defeat, or frustration, and you wonder if it is really worth it, place your mind in your heart, in awareness. What is inspiring you? The spirit warrior doesn't have a violent soul, but does have a powerful energy and a great need to put the energy to good use. ~*~ #Viracocha - Honour the light - You are a light bearer. Your soul purpose is to redress the presence of darkness on this planet through shining the light. You are meant to do this in ways that are most uplifting to you. How can you create a loving legacy to remind others of the light? It is easy to get caught up with the troubles of the world and forget to focus on the light and the creative power you have. You are a light bearer, divinely designed to receive and transmit light. Be creative, small acts of kindness really make a difference. >*< Be well on your journey. >>*<< #Tealover #Oraclereading #dailyreading #Release #Innerwork #Spiritual #Instagood #Selfcare #teabreak #divination #openheart #Spiritualgrowth https://www.instagram.com/p/B8_uwjsF-ZC/?igshid=1nrndgeajp664

Hello beautiful souls, It's that time again for another #ReviveWritingWednesday prompt. Grab your journal and get cozy, brew up a cup of comfort and take at least 15min to ponder this question. >>*<< Do you struggle with negative thoughts? Do you believe yourself to be worthless? Do you understand that it's just your negative ego trying to control you? Even if you don't think you are choosing to feel that way, you are. You are not governed by your emotions and thoughts. You control them. So choose to ignore these negative patterns and choose to move into a positive mindset. Choose positive affirmations to repeat to yourself until you believe them. Do random acts of kindness for others, because it will make you feel good to be selfless and serve others needs over your own. If you need help ask for it. It doesn't mean you are not capable, but having an outside perspective can be what you need to see through the negative self talk. >*< Be well on your journey. >>*<< #WritingWednesday #writingprompts #writersofinstagram #writer #journalprompts #journalinspiration #journalersofinstagram #inspiration #journaling #journaladdict #reflection #selfcare #selflove #creative https://www.instagram.com/p/B8wSIc8jfP5/?igshid=1j9hprhfcc2ku

You have a plan of action now is the time to apply it and keep pushing forward even when you have major setbacks. >*< #SixOfCups - "Returns to child-like feelings of purity and innocence. Renewal brings the desire for play and lightheartedness." Don't let the responsibilities of adulthood snuff out your ability to enjoy playfulness. Taking time out to do fun things is essential to your mental health. >*< #Empress - "She relishes in nature's gifts. Abundance dances about her, for she radiates love eternally." This is very nurturing energy and is a reminder to be grateful for what you have and to be kinder to yourself. Do your best to eradicate negative thoughts and emotions. >*< #SevenOfCups - "Rules dreams, fantasies and otherworldly expansion. This visionary space is in the land of the collective unconscious and creative imagination." This is a good time to brainstorm some creative ideas. Write a short story or poem. Come up with a new game or flesh out some ideas you've been bouncing around. You could also just take some time out to daydream. >*< Spring is just around the corner and this weeks message is definitely that of playfulness, creativity and bringing your ideas into reality through some work and dedication.

Don’t get hung up on what your idea of love is based on what society has thrown at you. Love has many forms and being open and willing to give and receive that love will see you far more fulfilled than trying to force the idea of what love is into a mental standardized box. Love freely and look for more ways to experience what love is to you. ⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣Be well on your journey. ⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣~*~⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣#love #befree #freelove #freelovers #muchlove #facesoflove #janeausten #quotes #lovequotes #lovequote https://www.instagram.com/p/B8m7z6JHyOp/?igshid=11zd4fi8he1g5

Hello beautiful souls, Welcome to #ReviveWritingWednesday >>*<< This is an invitation to take some time out for yourself, from your busy life and get into some self reflection. Please brew up a cup of comfort, have a journal handy and a favorite writing tool. I recommend you take a minimum of 15min to contemplate this prompt. >*< Have you been burning yourself out? Have you been feeling depressed and sad? Winter is an especially difficult time for a lot of people. The cold weather keeps people inside more, which can lead to a lack of Vitamin D, causing fatigue and other symptoms. What comes to your mind when I ask you, how you can best support yourself? Look at all aspects of your being. Mental - could mean to check out a podcast, reading a book, or doing art. This may mean managing your time better and planning things out. Spiritual - could mean starting a meditation practice, showing gratitude or writing what you are grateful for everyday. Doing shadow work and correcting some bad habits you have. Emotional - could mean staying away from toxic people who bring you down, including family members. Learn your boundaries and how to communicate better, so that you may handle stressful situations, and can stay calm. Physical - could mean exercising - dance, do yoga, do squats while you watch a show. Make sure you eat well and drink enough water. Take your vitamins and get enough sleep. >*< Doing these things means making a commitment to yourself in order to be your best self. It means you must take responsibility for your actions with your spirit and body. It's hard work sometimes, but that doesn't mean it has to be the kind of work you dread and it shouldn't be that way. Fight to stay in a positive mindset and start as small as you need to, in order to achieve what you want and need. I hope this has been helpful for you. Be well on your journey. >>*<< #health #selfcare #commitment #selflove #instagood #instacool #love #loveyourself #mindfulness #gratitde #writersofinstagram #writer #writingprompts #writersofig #writerscommunity #journal #journalprompts #journalinspiration #journallove #journaladdict https://www.instagram.com/p/B8eQcplD6aX/?igshid=15mwkgjaf9nkd

Hello beautiful souls, It's time for #ReviveWritingWednesday Please take some time to sit with yourself for at least 15min and take some deep breaths. Have a cup of something comforting and relax for a bit. °•° How often would you say you have a negative attitude about yourself? If the answer is often, then this time you've taken to sit and #journal it out, will be helpful. °•° To doubt your inner voice that is reinforcing the positive aspects of yourself is completely damaging to your mind and Spirit. What does it do for you to constantly have negative emotions? The answer should be nothing. Find out the root cause of your insecurities. It may likely be many things, but take baby steps in identifying why you feel inferior about your abilities or superficiality your looks etc. It could have started when you were a child and you need to understand as an adult that these stories you were told about yourself from an adult in your life, aren't going to be true today. If it is the case, then you are the only person limiting yourself. You are the only one who can make you feel bad about your actions. Once you gain confidence in yourself then it will not matter what another person says or does, or even if their skills are better than yours, because you will understand your strengths to feel secure in your abilities. °•° Please tell yourself 1 to 3 things daily you are happy with about yourself, then be grateful for what you can do. Pat yourself on the back for taking positive actions to change your negative outlook on yourself. It won't happen overnight. It can take years to change these habits. Be patient with yourself. °•° Be well on your journey. >>*<< #WritingWednesday #journaling #journalinspiration #journalprompts #writingprompts #writing #writersofinstagram #journalersofinstagram #inspiration #thoughtsarethings #takeabreak #reflection #selfcare https://www.instagram.com/p/B8MO3rbHMUd/?igshid=14sznt01bkfkz

Hello Beautiful Souls, It's time for another #TeaAndCardsTuesday Today's featured deck is the Universal Love Oracle cards by Toni Salerno Today's featured Tea is Calm by Witchwood Teahouse @leandrawitchwood >>*<< #Forgiveness - The Goddess radiates love, empathy and kindness towards all living things. Her love has tamed the dragon which now follows her with devotion. A situation in your life needs healing. Forgiveness is essential if healing is to take place. It does not condone another's actions. Compassion does not negate responsibility. Understanding does not relinquish your need for boundaries, space and respect. Forgive and release negative attachments. If there is any need to forgive yourself, do this now, and set yourself free of the pain and burden. >*< #Transmutation - You are undergoing a deep spiritual change. Creative and healing energies surround you. Old habits and thought patterns are being transformed at a deep inner level. You will soon experience a renewed sense of wellbeing and creativity that will have a lasting and positive impact on your life. Listen to calming music, meditate for this will help the process. Imagine a golden light bathing over you, see a violet flame burning, send the thought patterns that no longer serve you into the flame. See them transform into supportive and insightful beliefs. >*< #Birth - A seed strikes fertile soil and something beautiful is born. This card represents the start of something new. This could be a relationship, job, project, or a completely new way of looking at life. It also marks the beginning of a creative phase where previously hidden talents emerge. Allow your intuition and inner guidance to direct your energy and efforts to generating abundance on all levels. Energy well spent graces you with more energy in return. Harness that spark and be invigorated. This seed of possibility came to you, do not tuck it away in the dark. Give it freedom, love and the joy of the light. Let it grow! A new day brings new hope. >>*<< Be well on your journey. #Oraclereading #tealover #hope #love #Instagood #spirituality #Rosequartz #frozen #meditation #Spirit #tea #growth #selfcare #divination #affirmation https://www.instagram.com/p/B8Jtf6wAVay/?igshid=16db91d1sym4v

Looking for some more eco-friendly ways to keep your home clean? There’s plenty of simple DIYs to do so, but if you want something ready to go, there are still some better options out there. ⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣We decided to try out some refillable container options from @grovecollaborative and were very happy with the results. They have many name brand options available in the shop, but we really liked the set of cleaning products that just required purchasing refill pouches or liquid concentrates with water. So far we’ve tried the all-purpose cleaner, the glass cleaner, and their free and clear laundry detergent. The cherry on top was getting a cute cleaning caddy to put them in!⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣If you’d like to give them a try and switch over to more sustainable and safe cleaning products, we’d appreciate you using our referral code https://www.grove.co/referrer/86414042/ ⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣Do you have any safe and sustainable options to share with the community?

Hello beautiful souls, Welcome back to another #ReviveWritingWednesday Time to brew up a cup of comfort and take some time to journal or reflect. >>*<< The concept of authenticity has received a significant amount of attention recently as people search for meaning and happiness, in their lives. How one chooses to try to live more authentically depends on their own perspective on authenticity. You may not understand exactly what the term means, not know how to be genuine, or find it difficult to connect to your deepest emotions. Remember that developing authenticity takes time. Examining our true self is a process, perhaps a life-long process, because we are ever-evolving. It takes quite a while to sort out beliefs and behaviors that no longer serve you, and replace them with more authentic actions. But with some effort, you'll soon find more genuine alignment with your true self. Social media has many benefits, sharing your story, your experiences, and knowledge, while connecting to people is a beautiful thing, however it also can be detrimental, with people only putting their best face forward and hardly sharing their struggles, offering only presentations of what they think they should be and how they should be living. Being authentic means that you act in ways that show your true self and how you feel. Rather than showing people only a particular side of yourself, you express your whole self genuinely. That means to succeed in being authentic, you first have to know who your true self actually is. This requires deep introspection, self-awareness, mindfulness, and self-acceptance. >>*<< What comes to your mind after reading this? What steps will you be taking to live a more authentic life? >>*<< Be well on your journey. >>*<< #authentic #introspection #coffee #tea #coffeelover #teaaddict #writersofinstagram #writingprompts #writing #journal #instagood #journaltherapy #selfcare #writemore #takeabreak https://www.instagram.com/p/B76Gmt4A_CE/?igshid=1framsx0rxthg

Hello Beautiful Souls, Time for some #TeaAndCardsTuesday Today's featured deck is the Adorabyssal Oracle by @pixeloccult Today's featured tea is jasmine pearl by Chado tea. >>*<< #Anansi #Story - How are you weaving your story? Have you been speaking your truth? Are you communicating well with others or misinterpreting what people are saying? Anansi is here to remind you that all things are connected and not separate. Will you be the spider that knows what's going on in its web or will you be the fly trapped ready to be food? °•° #Huginn & #Muninn #Knowledge - They represent thought and memory. Maybe it's time for you to write your personal story down. Who are you? What have you accomplished in your life? What goals do you still have? It's still winter and a time for introspection and rest. If you don't journal and thought about starting a practice, then this is your sign. °•° #Sleipnir #Swiftness - I feel this card speaks of getting your tasks finished. It's more an urgency not to wait. While winter is still here and tho a time of rest, that does not equate to laziness or procrastination. Manage your time wisely, get things done in a timely fashion so as to maximize productivity with your downtime. °•° #WillOTheWisp #Guidance - It is time to start listening to your intuition, a gift from your Spirt. If you've been ignoring your intuition, that is where things can go awry. Not listening to that guy feeling can lead you down the wrong path or make things more difficult as you progress on your path. When you get these clear signs, follow them. It's to your benefit as your Spirit has your highest good in mind. >>*<< Be well on your journey. >>*<< #dailyreading #oraclereading #oracledeck #takeabreak #messagesfromtheuniverse #inspiration #innerwork #spiritualgrowth #spirituality #selfcare https://www.instagram.com/p/B73hpC3DJOE/?igshid=14s3rngf95u8u

Hello beautiful souls, Our past can leave us with grief and regret at times. We may make poor decisions or miss out on opportunities that we can't get back or maybe even have ruined relationships that we wish we hadn't lost. Whatever the case may be, take care not to let your regrets consume you. Having regrets is akin to acknowledging that you either did something wrong or just passed up a better decision. So really what you've done already is identified a weakness or missed chance to have created a better present. Use that as a tool to reflect, learn from it, and adapt. You cannot change the past, and furthermore, sometimes there is solace in knowing that in that moment, you made the decision you thought was best. You did not yet have the capacity for forethought that could prevent you from having regret. But now you do. You've experienced it. You can take your life lessons and apply it to your future all the wiser. Write down your regrets in your journal. Let it be your guide for making better decisions or possibly even sharing what you've learned with others so that they may have a chance to learn from it as well. After giving your regrets some attention and spending time on reflection, do your best to let it go. Don't forget it! But don't let it hinder you from reaching a brighter future. It is not yet written so the power is in your hands to leave the past where it belongs and take with you only that which will make you more astute the next time you hit a fork in the road.

Hello Beautiful Souls, It's time for #TeaAndCardsTuesday Today's featured deck is The Spirit Animal Oracle by @colettebaron_reid Today's featured tea is Chai with almond milk and honey >>*<< #Butterfly - Transformation is inevitable as you grow into your most beautiful empowered self. Indeed, you will go through some uncomfortable stages as you let go of the forms of your life that no longer fit the new you. Transformation does not have to be traumatic. Remember that the only constant is change. When you resist it, you create a tension within you as you refuse to accept the inevitable. Surrender will soften you, practice gratitude and stay curious. ..*.. #Seahorse - The message here is to remain neutral and gain perspective. Even if you are tempted to jump into the fray to fix things, the best way to serve yourself and others right now is to remain calm and simply watch. Are you holding onto judgement, sure that your perspective is the only correct way? You are being reminded to detach from the experience so you may see it from a different angle. ..*.. #Coyote - This is trickster energy. It's designed to bring you into situations to teach you lessons you have forgotten to learn. Perhaps you need a taste of failure before you experience success, a need to feel disappointment before you can truly appreciate joy and prosperity. Perhaps you are revisiting a pattern you forgot wasn't in alignment with the life you are intending to co-create, being reminded that gratitude, not complacency, will keep you aware of all that is available to you in this moment. ..*.. #Deer - Be gentle and diplomatic when dealing with others. Be mindful of the words you choose, but do not worry, deer reminds you that you have the ability to be sure-footed and confident while showing humility and respect for others. You will find that your capacity for calm and grounded communication is heightened at this time. Now is not the time to engage in an argument, no matter how volatile others are being. Stand your ground with grace, those who disagree will begin to find their own gentleness and willingness to compromise. >>*<< #communication #selfcare #spirituality #oraclecards #spiritanimal https://www.instagram.com/p/B7lZNnCIf1_/?igshid=l15j06yhtlko

Hello beautiful souls, We've all done it, not wanting to do a task and putting it off until the last second. Or maybe, there was a time you threw caution into the wind and jumped into something that you regretted later. Not usually our proudest moments, but sometimes these problems aren't just "moments", they're habits. Do you notice that one or the other is something very present in your life? Is it causing you grief and keeping you from living the life you envision for yourself? Write down your moments of weakness and reflection on the time before and after, what happened and how did you feel. If it's causing you damage, it's time to make a change. Target the variables and catalysts that lead to make rash decisions or avoid them altogether. Give yourself small, short term goals and have them lead up to a time where your behaviors are not detrimental to your growth and just plain living your life.
