I have been leaning into the question: How can I enjoy this present moment even more?

This question has gotten me thinking and feeling into what it really means to be fully present, fulfilled and in my higher-self.

I have spent the past month reading, attending workshops and seminars and reminding myself of the most important empowerment exercises and strategies, so that I can embrace myself in every moment and be fully at peace and happy.

Needless to say, there’s a lot that goes into this process of self-love and fulfillment.

I’m so thrilled to share with you know that, yes, there is a secret weapon in creating a life of fulfillment and self-love and it includes creating a daily ritual for yourself.

Creating daily rituals is a beautiful process that will allow you to dive into experiencing the feelings that you are craving and connect with your most loving self.

Rituals are ways to remind yourself of what you want to experience and then powerfully manifest those desires into your daily life.

Creating these rituals is a process of going deep and looking into what you want to feel most, in that it allows you to get creative and think about what you really want to connect with each day.

I invite you now to sit comfortably, close your eyes (if you choose) and think of what you would love to experience more of each day… This can include a feeling of support, relaxation, encouragement, deep connection, peace, meditation and so on. This can also include an action that you want to take each day, such as going on a walk before bed, calling a loved one each day to connect and so on.

I invite you to be as true to yourself as possible and think about what’s missing from your daily experience, or something that you’re craving more of  that you want to bring in and enhance even more.

Think about the things that you desire and long for, consistently, and don’t be afraid to speak them. I have found that we often hold our deepest desires to ourselves and wonder why we are feeling unfulfilled and untapped.

I’m happy to tell you that feeling a lack of or a longing doesn’t have to be a part of your daily experience, and you can now create a daily ritual to completely transform this part of your life.

Below are a few examples of my daily rituals that you can use as inspiration for creating your own…

Time of day: Morning when I wake up.

Ritual: Each morning I will ask myself an empowering question to start my day with a positive intention and connect with my highest self.

Purpose: To allow for creative and purposeful action throughout the day that opens my heart, spirit and connects me with my true-self.  

Desired Feeling that’s being enhanced: Connection to my higher-self, creative action, empowerment of myself and others.

Time of day: Evening before I go to sleep.

Ritual: Each night I will connect with my loved one and create space for deep connection and heart-to-heart sharing.

Purpose: To create time and space for deep connection to one another, to share beautiful pieces of our day, to enjoy time together and to be fully present to one another, to grow together and hold each other to being our best selves.

Desired Feeling that’s being enhanced: Deep connection, meaningful sharing, oneness, nurturing and loving communication, being seen, heard and felt.

These are my sweet-spot rituals, and I created them with the specific intention to experience more of what I desire, so that I can be my best self and so I can inspire those around me to do the same.

Please share your daily rituals, and remember, there’s no need to rush… take your time in creating these rituals and remember to stay true to the things that you really desire… not just things that look good on paper.

I believe in you.

Sending a wave of love your way.
