“I’m looking for a love that is filled with excitement and butterflies…intimacy and trust…oneness and adventure…the “I want you with me every day” kind of love…all rooted deeply in Spirit’s blessing.
When we embrace new possibilities with an open mindset for love…God fulfills our desires beyond our imagination…and all of a sudden, we are awakened.”
Love and blessings,
Wendy
“I used to be very focused on the external attributes of my soul.
Seven years ago I had the opportunity to begin a lifelong process of self discovery, self exploration, and self-awareness. During this time, I have experienced an awakening…one that is recurring…”deep inner soul work.”
One of my greatest discoveries is of the inner beauty which is my soul…evolved, and evolving, and that which illuminates and transcends the outward physical attributes.
When we become awakened to the Divine…we “see” beyond our physical limitations within ourselves, and we become highly aware that what we “see” within is our connection to everything, and everyone else.”
Love and blessings,
Wendy

“Grief may come upon us like the rush of a violent wave. If we are to survive, we are prepared with knowledge and tools to help us to navigate in uncharted waters where we safely swim to shore. From the shore, we can see our journey more clearly, and how far we have come. The choice is always ours…sink, or swim.” Wendy Blanchard, M.S., CHHC
“Today I give myself permission to crumble. Tomorrow I will use my resilience and tools to pick myself up off of the ground…and begin again.” Wendy Blanchard, MS, CHHC
“Middle aged, for some, is a regression to a two year old temper tantrum behavior where they no longer use their words to communicate…
Some may have never had communication skills…
Either way…the best course of action is not to engage. Their behavior of blocking on and off, follow and unfollow, and standing in judgement, and never taking responsibility for their unconscionable behavior, exhibits their “TRUTH.” Years of unhealthy behavioral patterns.
Be grateful to God for protecting you.”
“Faith flows with ease and grace. It offers peace, clarity, and wellness.
Fear requires constant energy that is continuously fueled and recycled, and is exhausting. It depletes our good energy and compromises our immune system.
It’s a choice.
I pray you CHOOSE FAITH.
Be well. Be safe. Conserve your energy. Allow yourself the gift of faith.”
Love and blessings,
Wendy
“Those who are unable to self regulate lack self awareness…” – Wendy Blanchard, MS, CHHC
During this unsettling time of the Corona Virus where our lives have taken on a new normal, I’ve observed so much love from so many loved ones, friends, colleagues and even one I was estranged from checking in to ask if I’m ok and if I need anything. I do live with an autoimmune disease and my age puts me at high risk.
I am celebrating 7 years of recovery next month from Substance Use Disorder and mental illness. My life is so full and I am deeply grateful for the love and support. My spiritual practice provides all of my strength, daily.
Ive also learned that those who are so consumed with only themselves, their own health, their own corner of the universe can never give all the love that comes naturally to me, and those I choose to surround myself with. Spirit has provided me with a deep and profound lesson during this crisis as to why a former love relationship did not work out. The saying “you find out who your friends are during hard times” hit me between the eyes.
I have been living with a child who was recently hospitalized for a serious illness, and is still unwell, and a dying parent, and I continue to reach out to loved ones, friends, and neighbors regardless, to offer my support. It’s not all about me…it’s about WE. It’s about taking what we have and giving it away “God feeds us so that we can feed others.”
THIS is the kind of partner I am looking for…one who practices self care, as well as offering love, compassion and time to myself, family and those around us. Selflessness.
It only takes one minute or less to offer a smile, or a text that says, “I’m thinking of you. I’m here.”
I love the woman I have transformed into during my recovery.
I thank God every day for loving me and guiding me to this place of personal awareness and spiritual strength and solutions.
Please take good care of yourselves, and each other. Reach out to others to offer loving support. Be well.
IT IS ALL ABOUT WE…ALWAYS.
Love and blessings,
Wendy
“God has a reason for everything…maybe the reason for this is for us to realize we truly are one, interconnected, and to practice love of ourselves and others divinely as we stay aligned with our spiritual practice.” – Wendy Blanchard, MS, CHHC
