Dogs In Heaven? Take a Listen.

A friend from long ago sent me this video of a song her brother Carl wrote years ago and recently recorded.

He was inspired to write it when his dog was about to pass away to try and answer the question many ask, “Do dogs go to heaven?” It is beautiful and I think you just might enjoy it, too.

As for my thoughts? I absolutely believe dogs go to heaven and while I’m not yet ready to leave this earth, I look forward to meeting all my canine friends once again! To me, to be with them, in a place with no worries or fears… well, that surely is heaven!

Trust the Process

Trust the Process

One thing I share and stress when I teach my SoulCollage(r) workshops is to “trust the process.”

This was something that was talked about often when I went for my facilitator training in November 2014. It resonates with me on many levels.

We can so often get caught up in the idea of how something should or shouldn’t be done– often times buying into what one guru or another says. I’m not saying the gurus are wrong and that they don’t have a place — because they do.  But I think it’s just that we’ve forgotten a gift we all have – and that is to trust our own process – no matter what it is you do or who you are.

I know for me, I find myself gravitating more and more to this space of what feels right for me in several different areas of my life.

I want my life to flow in alignment of what feels right in my heart and body. I want to be in a place of trusting even more what my inner voice tells me.

And when I pay attention to my first thoughts or how my body reacts to certain things, I’m learning to be in more awareness of it and trust it.

And they say you teach what you also most need to learn, so it’s why I wanted a reminder of trusting my own process and to also encourage this in others that attend my workshops.

So when I came across an idea, similar to the painting I did above, I knew I wanted this as a reminder not only to myself but to those that attend my workshops in my Joyful Pause Studio.

How much struggle and disappointments I wonder we would avoid if we learned to tune in much more to our own process.

So I share these thoughts with you today, and my new painting, as a sweet reminder that listening to your heart is one of the wisest things you can do to live a life full of meaning that is exactly right for you.
