I recently had the incredible experience of practicing the art of Kintsugi during a workshop hosted by fellow Spiritual Niagara member, Désirée Key (Pure Love Reiki). This workshop was powerful, transformational, and deeply healing. It allowed myself, and the others attending the workshop, fully understand the power of taking something that seems broken and making it beautiful… because isn’t that what life is all about?

With Valentine’s Day upon us it is common to feel a mix of emotions! While those in loving relationships feed into this collective energy of romantic love and connection, those who are unhappy in their relationships or those who are single, may feel otherwise. After all, Valentine’s Day does encourage us to highlight romantic relationships, leading us to forget the most important relationship of all; our relationship with ourselves!

So, you have a love-hate relationship with journaling? Or maybe you just downright hate it?

Odds are, you just haven’t found the journaling style for you yet! There are so many types of journals out there so don't feel trapped to the classic lined paper.

Journaling has become a buzzword, but there is no surprise as to why! Keeping a journal holds many benefits, from reducing stress to connecting with your intuition. Writing is a great way to encourage self-awareness, as well as to regulate your emotions and gain clarity. With all these benefits, why are people afraid to journal?

Do you feel it? The energy shift whispering “you’ve got this”? The one gently encouraging you to move forward and step into your power? Spring is finally here, and it’s ready to give us the boost we need to plant the seeds for our future, become the priority we are, and bloom into the person we’re meant to be!

Have you ever experienced the feeling of running in one spot, working so hard to move forward but not going anywhere? Have you felt like you’re constantly moving one step forward and then two steps backward? Or maybe you are stuck in a “Groundhog Day” scenario, reliving the same day over, and over, and over again? These are just a few examples of things an Empowerment Coach can help you overcome!

Everyone has parts of themselves that we like to keep hidden in the shadows. We fear it, but it’s something that should be embraced. These “negative” pieces of ourselves that we try to push away make up our shadow self. Unlike Peter Pan’s shadow, our shadow isn’t something we can separate from.

As an Empowerment Coach, I’m here to tell you what everyone ought to know about the 3 pillars of empowerment. If you’re tired of feeling like you’re living life on auto-pilot, or like you’re living life for others, or perhaps just feeling insecure, and having a hard time making decisions (does the question, “what do you want for dinner” scare you?), you may be disempowered.

Living in alignment is something we hear a lot from Life Coaches, Mentors, Psychics, Mediums, and so many others in the Spiritual Community. But what does it really mean? How do we know when we are in alignment? If we’re misaligned, how to we become aligned? And what are we supposed to be in alignment with?!

We’ve all heard that daily meditation practice can improve our lives in many ways. But how exactly does meditation impact us?

There are 8 cognitive distortions that are incredibly common. Most people don’t even know when they’re experiencing them! Odds are, when you’re experiencing a negative thought, cognitive distortions are the culprit! So, what are cognitive distortions?
