 Decide if you want or do not want to be included. Make decisions on what you do have in your life not on what you think you lost- The best feeling in the world is to feel wanted. To be a part of something, respected, to be valued and most importantly, connected. Sometimes, we can lose sight of the greatest connection we can ever plug into, ourselves. It’s imperative to build a practice in connecting with yourself. You are the only person that knows you best and often times, we are injected into people, places and things that challenge that inner connection or seemingly discount our inner beauty, our way of being and we lose power by choosing to believe on some level that they’re right. You lose power by choosing to question who you are, who you know yourself to be true. You lose power by seeking approval, spinning inside constant feelings of insecurity with an instability in finding your own natural footing. Realistically, how can you move forward being stuck where you are? How can you create anything new, holding onto what was? How can you ever feel empowered, if you don’t remember you have a choice in who you are? Healing cannot be an option if you don’t decide to shift your focus?
When you’re faced with feelings or thoughts of; rejection, being excluded, left out, pushed aside, alone and unwanted. Remember, you have a choice in the outcome of the overall experience. You decide if you want to be included. You decide what you want, what is right for you, and the people, places, and things that line up with that enriching and supporting you in the feelings of comfort, connection, acknowledgement and love. Take time to remember who you are in the face of adversity and despair, to recognize your strength, courage, your power to prevail and keep going. Decide to move on, less the emotional patterning that siphons your inner strength, power, and resolve. You will never lose what you gained inside progress because growth imprints on the soul like rings of wisdom do inside a tree. Decide if you want to be included. Make your decisions on what you do have in your life not on what you think you lost. Move into a worthwhile focus and highlight all that’s worth YOUR time, energy and effort. Understand, rejection is a small part of life and whatever you gained in growth is yours. It can never be taken away, only cultivated or denied. Decide to cultivate yourself, to look at all angles not just the ones that may cause pain. Decide to connect with what fills you and do more of it. Decide to choose in your power, remember how valuable you are, and embrace yourself completely. Decide to build yourself up with positive self-talk and encouragement. Decide to see yourself. Drop the cloak of invisibility and connect with the wholeness in being. When you find yourself in a state of connection, it’s no longer about being included or not, rejected or not, unwanted or not. It becomes more about creating your own space that includes you and deciding to include other people that are the like. Love, Jennifer - Inner Beauty Blog Principles, Practices & Purpose J.

TIS` THE SEASON OF HEART
December can be quite a magical month and fulfilling time of year. We get a chance to embrace the spirit of holidays and witness the wonder through the eyes of children and adults alike. Tis` the season of heart, when the world steps into a place of family, togetherness, and hope. It’s an end of a year that begins an active path into giving and receiving, rooted in a coming together of values and the essence of home. The season fills the atmosphere with magic; crisp air and snow falling from sky, lights aglow on streets and in homes, long gazes into loved one’s eyes by the crackles of fire and sparks of sweet-hearts. We take care, nestling into hearty foods like soups, stews, and hot chocolate. We bundle up with sweaters, scarves, blankets and loved ones and we find ourselves surround by light, the illumination of our hopes and dreams in the stillness of love within our hearts.
The heart symbolizes life, love and the engagement in partnership. The heart never leads alone... It never beats alone... One pulse follows the other in the direction of union. A sense of union requires partnership. We learn to connect and re-connect through the heart-experience, magnified between a pair of arms that allow us to reach out and touch what we love, while, cradled and comforted between two breasts that safely hold what we feel. We are given an opportunity to feel the magic of life, connection and harmony both, individually and collectively. The season of heart reminds us in order to create a spark of life, we cannot go at it alone. We simply relate and create in a blended continuum of wholeness. The heart does not beat alone... It does not lead alone... One pulse follows the other in complete unification. This is a time of un-veiling, re-vealing, and an un-folding of self to the inner sweetness of comfort and warmth. It’s a reminder of the mother-child experience, the inner connection and bond of unconditional love. Our very own place to rest soulfully in the wonder and awe, completely disarmed and embraced in the natural state of being. The heart leads us to a clear passage and cleansing, a shedding of old, a point to nurture life and all that we live for. It is a space given in which to surrender, to lay down a clean slate, to be re-born in concept as we celebrate into the new, calm and cradled in the mother energy, inside the season of heart.

It’s time to get out of the “cookie cutter” version of what healing should look like and shift back into our own personal guidance and experience. Sometimes, the path to healing has us feeling off center and it’s cause for questioning but we forget, feeling off center is also for good purpose. The center balances opposing sides and reveals a place of wholeness. When the scale tips toward into the wound, the other side of balance is overlooked. The gift of wholeness is to be open and available to both sides and to integrate them into conscious balance. Your personal path to healing begins inside wholeness not in one side of experience. Let’s look at pain for example. I’ve thought about pain. Pain is real. Pain is relentless. It reveals itself through the body, not just inside it. It wants to be seen. It beckons to be heard. It tugs at you every minute of every day. Pain is restrictive, trapped in the body with no space for joy and we suffer. Pain is suffering, the physical manifestation of held in, held back, shut down and buried emotion. Your physical body can become the storehouse for ignored, unacknowledged and suppressed emotional energy. Pain is an internal broadcast system for the feelings buried inside, screaming to be heard. To be acknowledged. To be cleared. To be loved.
Every healing journey will not look the same. It’s a personal pursuit-
Have you ever sat with the inner voice of your own pain? I have. Pain is a lot more than just what we name it. It’s a culmination of stuck emotions, blocked feelings, experiences, memories, unconscious belief systems and unhealthy patterns. Because of this, healing can be an evolution of all experience and acknowledging what exists inside you, begins the path that serves as a direction. All of it is important information to construct a very intimate healing experience. Sometimes the tendency is to give up because you don’t like what you see and it can be hard to move through. This is when healing becomes dedication and time becomes discovery. I thought about pain. I’ve had pain. I’ve worked with pain and then it occurred to me. It came into me like a whole being awareness. The other side of pain, is pleasure. Pleasure. What a revelation! In all these years, it never occurred to me that pleasure was a root deficiency to my experience of pain. I was totally invested inside the pain that I missed out on any form of pleasure. I never embraced the joy of life and in being because I never thought to look at the other side of what the experience of pain had to offer.
I thank God for that moment in wholeness. It moved me. Pleasure was now in the game and enjoying my life became priority. When you embrace the other side, you stop brow beating the wound. You cease falling back into rigid, perfectionism disguised as discipline and the “trigger” has a place to go, a space to flourish. My personal healing did not look like the ideal or what I had anticipated. I found rest. I witnessed no more pushing into life or wanting to force forward. I could feel the grip loosen, I allowed some fun and sweeter foods, exercise was no longer a bloodbath but now conscious movement based on my needs for that day. Yes, I gained some weight but I also embraced that weight and loved myself anyway. My healing journey through pain helped me find a better balance within myself, a conscious balance. It helped me find the opening to the possibility of having pleasure move through me and integrate it into my experience. When you make your healing journey personal; it moves you, it changes you, it transforms you into a state of inner-conscious being. Shift away from the “call to action” approach to healing and move deeper into intimate understanding. Let that be the life-giving medicine you take in.
