“Carry Quietly” – Love, Wendy


Recently, the famous saying, “There are none so blind who will not see,” has pierced my heart. It has become very personal.

And so as I typically do, I asked a question of the angels as to how I will move forward with this information, and they answered me through music. A song entitled, “Carry Quietly” began to play on my Pandora station immediately upon posing my question.

I take it to mean to hold that relationship with love, not to challenge what I observe, to simply practice acceptance without judgement, and to “carry it quietly,” as “there are none so blind who will not see.”

Love can still shine through the cracks of our differences, illuminating the genuineness of the human condition.

By embracing acceptance, we cradle the beauty of imperfection, allowing compassion to blossom even in the face of ignorance.

And perhaps at another time, we plant another seed.

It’s in this quiet carrying that we find strength—not in force, but in gentle resilience, nurturing connections that remind us we are all part of a larger tapestry, woven together by shared experiences and emotions.

Perhaps we can even find a lesson of a deeper understanding of the human condition creating a deeper connection to Spirit, to ourselves, and to others as we “carry it quietly.”

Normalize Making Mistakes – Love, Wendy

Let us normalize making mistakes.

We all make our wisest decisions with the knowledge that we have based on life experiences at any given time.

As we evolve, we have the opportunity to embrace new wisdom and perspectives.

Embracing this process allows us to be more compassionate toward ourselves and others.

Forgive yourself and use your experiences to fuel your growth, transforming challenges into lessons that guide you toward a more enlightened path.

A Person of Influence – Love, Wendy

When we are the person of influence in any room, others tend to sync their energy with ours.

In order to create a productive, positive and meaningful experience, lead with a smile.

Provide a balance of openness, inclusion, focus and constructive feedback. Balancing these elements can help create a harmonious atmosphere where everyone feels valued and motivated to contribute!

Love and blessings,

Wendy

Expressive Writing for healing – Love, Wendy

This is part of an “expressive writing” exercise that I created and assign to clients.

Part of our healing is being willing to reset our thinking and to reshape/realign our nervous system with wellness. This can support us as we recognize that the past is over, and that we can make healthy choices in the present to support our overall health and safety.

Boundaries is one component in healing.

Boundaries create a framework for healthier interactions and help us prioritize self-care.

Stand in your power. Do not disrespect, dishonor, diminish or disown your own needs and desires. Do not minimize all that you so well deserve…in love, in peace, in joy, in freedom. THIS IS YOUR RIGHT. We demonstrate to others how we expect to be treated by the way we take care and honor ourselves.

Write down your top 5 (or more), non negotiable, relationship must have’s. Write down your top 5 (or more) non negotiable daily self care practices.

Honor yourself.

Set your boundaries.

Heal.

Love and blessings,

Wendy

Personal Agency – Love, Wendy

I affirm, daily, that I give myself permission to outgrow, and to pivot from people and relationships that no longer align with the vision that I hold for living my most authentic and meaningful life.

I remind myself that I have the right to move on from connections that are no longer serving me, allowing for ongoing personal growth and evolution in my life.

I have learned that in every moment, I have the opportunity to choose again.

I choose wellness, joy, and peace of mind where love is the foundation of every choice that I make.

I set healthy boundaries, and I embrace the transition that opens space for new, more fulfilling connections.

I take ownership of every choice that I make. And if it doesn’t work out, I choose again.

And again. And again.

Love, Wendy

There is no shame – Love, Wendy

As soon as you say, you’re depressed, “they” want to put you on medication.

Nobody talks to you about nutrition or exercise or getting out into nature, or just crying to release the underlying reason for the depression. Or talking it through to unpack your emotions. To release.

Medication is the norm and we must change that as many people thrive and manage their symptoms using holistic and/or integrative practices.

We must make individual lifestyle changes. We must allow and encourage each individual to choose a traditional recovery approach, a holistic recovery approach, or a little of both.

We must honor what we ourselves know that we need to heal, to recover, and to thrive.

And we must have an ongoing dialouge about mental health in a safe, non judgemental space that promotes treatment seeking behavior where we normalize our symptoms and where we encourage people to want to step forward to speak their truth about their emotions, feelings and symptoms.

We all have mental health.

There is no shame in feeling. There is no shame in thinking. There is no shame in crying. There is no shame in feeling afraid to speak your truth.

Do it anyway.

Love and blessings,

Wendy

Aging – Love, Wendy

Aging is a gift to be unwrapped gingerly and savored with all of our senses.

Aging encourages us to continue to be curious and to learn. To challenge our mind to reach a higher potential. To become even more enlightened and to share our wisdom where it is sought.

Honor your age. Feed your aging body with healthy practices. Feed your brain with knowledge and humor.

Aging is a gift and not given to everyone.

Create your own trajectory as you age keeping a young and open mind and heart.

Joy and purpose will meet you there.

Love, Wendy

Friendship – Love, Wendy

Friends for decades. Soulmates. “Sisters.” Been through it all together.

We sense each other through the miles. We support each other in joy and in heartbreak. And when we know our friend needs to talk, we call her on the phone instead of a text to allow her to fully unpack her emotions. To release the grief, or to explode with joy.

No matter what we are experiencing in our own lives, a friend sets aside time to listen. In a safe space. In a comforting space where we know we are loved and cherished.

And perhaps offer a new perspective that may soothe our pain. or heighten our joy.

Love, Wendy
