Whether people want to believe in it or not, most people at some point in their life crave meeting their soul mate. Every spiritual guru has a different perspective on this, but what I can tell you is that in our lives we meet people with whom we have a deeper soul bond or connection to.
Most crave this in a romantic sense, but some of these connections can be platonic especially if one person is already in a committed relationship. Soul mates teach us some of the most important lessons in life. Like a mirror, they shake things up and force us to look at our inner world in order to change. These connections are not to be taken lightly or to be wasted. Fear causes people to run away and hide because that is easier than looking in the mirror. The law of attraction has its merit. God works miracles and sometimes souls are separated and then reunited as each person is on his or her path of growth in life. When ready, they will meet again if it is meant to happen. And there is no accidental meeting between two souls, whether the connection is for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Happy almost Valentine's Day. Today's sunspiration is obviously inspired by love. An interesting newsletter came into my inbox with an article titled, 'Is it Love or Fantasy?" This article stirred my brain with thoughts regarding love, fantasy and reality.
Both men and women live in a fantasy. We are indoctrinated by Hollywood and both genders have overlays, which lives in a place of fantasy unable to see reality or people for who they are. I believe fairy tale romances exist if two people in love work at it. And that fairy tale occurs when looking deep into the soul of your partner. The article states, "If you find beauty and light there instead of darkness, and have an appreciation for what you have found, then the chances that you have found real love are enormously improved. If you are in love with the inner beauty you have found in the other person, and they are in love with the inner beauty they have found in you, the likelihood is that it is real love and not fantasy. If this is a shared beauty, this is the basis for a lasting love—a love that will last beyond physical life and through all eternity." I've lost love in my life, and I hope to inspire everyone to cherish the love they have in their life. "The light within me recognizes and acknowledges the light within you." I hope you can see the light with the love in your life. Enjoy it. Cherish it. And if it's real, never take it for granted.

Happy Birthday Mozart!
This musical genius is still loved to this day. So, what do you think about this quote? Is it that a genius must love what he does? Or is love the true essence of our soul? And if we realize that, and a choose a life of soul + love, we are in fact, genius. There are many ways to interpret this, but we must love ourselves, others and the planet we live on. If we choose to live a soulful life, and love what we do, and let love guide our life, are we a genius? Love is the way to God. Living a life through the heart center is not easy in a world of revenge. I liked this quote I read on revelationsforlife.com, M. Scott Peck, MD, described love as "The will to extend one's self for the purpose of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth." You have to love yourself enough to allow yourself to grow as well as others on whatever path they choose.

The nucleus of our brain plays an integral role not only in our wellbeing, but also with accessing the higher mind which is the gateway to our soul.
What you feed your mind affects the body, which is its own environment and ecosystem. From the media to the news to the food we eat, our brains are overloaded with "hits of data" everyday. True liberation from societal beliefs, structures and constraints comes from the ability to "see" things as guided by our intuition coupled with the belief and power in God. The reality of today, psychologists, think tanks, food chemists and the like know how to control our brains. Through the maintenance of treating our inner and outer worlds like a temple, we reap what we sow not only in our minds, but also our bodies.

We're one week into the New Year. Whatever change you hope for or desire, know that this change lays within you. Your mind, body and soul may be crying for a change, but are you listening to that voice inside your head?
January is the perfect time for change. It's the month where we reflect on the previous year and hope for the remaining months to be bright and sunny. Remember that life is a continuous process. It is never perfect or in a constant positive flow. It's time to rid of the superficial goals, and go within. As a health coach and trainer, honesty is one goal most people need to have with themselves. Not only about life in general, but being honest with themselves. We are in charge of writing our own stories in life. What type of book do you want to write? ​As always, inspired by the sun, Elizabeth Join Mind Body Soul Food Every Sunday for some inspiration, or Sunspiration, where we analyze quotes and sweet nothings in 150 words or less.

Einstein said it best, "Love is the most powerful energy on this planet." In my former post, "Is Love the Most Powerful Force on This Planet," I discuss the need and craving that humans have to give and receive love. This is natural and very common for people to want love in their life.
This is why I believe (besides social engineering and affluent times) we have such a pet obsessive culture because with the birth rates decreasing in the west....we need something to love! People want to be valued at work. They crave loving relationships. And many people dream of falling in love with a soul mate. The reality of hardship on this planet is that everything roots back to love. Whether it's an act of kindness, or the unconditional love that we receive from a pet....love always wins.

Mindfulness is a buzzword that is overused. However, those with deeper levels of awareness are cognizant of their actions and intentions.
The reality is that we reap what we sow. Some believe reaping what you sow is a fear-based perspective on karma. That very much may be true. But, what we put out comes back to us in some form or another. If you go around hurting or manipulating people's emotions or playing with fire, life somehow sends you these exact lessons or situations in your life too. If you ghost people who like you, most likely someone you meet down the road that you like will ghost you or hurt you in some way. Being aware of our actions breaks the bonds from living life on auto-pilot without a care or thought of how our actions and behaviors hurt other people.

This time of year is magical for some, but tough for others. Being alone is not easy, but the silver-lining to loneliness that this is a time of exploration, reflection, growth and change.
Some people purposefully choose solitude where others crave and need to be around people all the time. A healthy balance is ideal where one can stand on their own two feet and feel comfortable being alone while enjoying the company of others. Being alone is based on perception and perspective. Is your glass half empty or half full? I will be officially divorced in December, and because I did the inner-work, this may yet be the best holiday season to come...standing in solitude and celebrating being in the driver's seat of my life. I choose what I want to do and where I want to go all being thankful for every opportunity that comes my way.

Today, the holiday season is wrapped up in consumerism. No longer are children interested in oranges and roasted chest nuts, but fascinated by the awe-inspiring glitters of technology and packaged toys. Materialism is a part of this world. A balance between gratitude and gift giving is healthy. Children of the past received one to two gifts and cherished those prized possessions as it was similar to a treat.
Many Americans are breaking away from consumeristic holidays and rooting back to the spirit and the authentic meaning of the holiday season. It's a time to express gratitude during the darkest time of the year. It's a time of reflection on the past 11 months. It's a season of enjoying loved ones and the company of others. That is the true spirit of the holiday season, a time to express thanks for everything, from the sweet fruits of nature to the acts of kindness from a friend. Happy holiday season.

The Camino de Santiago teaches pilgrims countless lessons. When one returns home and rests his or her head on a familiar pillow, it is important to reflect on the lessons learned.
The Camino teaches one to move forward in life, into the new chapter of their life's journey. I am definitely on that mission and during these times we must face the dark or shadow. Life is not always sunshine and glitter, though that is the image we project online. New chapters may not be easy, but necessary for personal growth and soul evolvement. Whatever action you take you must trust in God that this path is meant for you, whatever the reason and whatever the season. Good, bad or something in between, walking forward is a must in life to break patterns, old mindsets, behaviors and repeating our history.
