Connect with Your Truth!
Bio-individuality:
What does this mean? It means that every single person is different. One person’s food may be another person’s poison. I will never preach, counsel, or advise about a specific diet. The road to healing has many paths for many people and the goal is to feel great in your body. Health is not the end of the road though because when you heal, you open the way for incredible opportunities and possibilities! I do not know what you need to eat to thrive but I can help you figure out what nourishes you best along the way. This is a wonderful time in your life; be patient and listen to your body’s messages always. May you be nourished inside and out!
Know yourself:
“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”― Sun Tzu, The Art of War
He is right because you cannot expect to get what you want if you do not know yourself and your true values. Whatever works for you, is good!
You can learn about yourself by evaluating your life, without judgement and criticism Look at yourself honestly and curiously and love everything you have seen and done, for it made you who you are. Remember you are okay, just as you are. Finding a regular spiritual practice can help you know yourself. You can have a spiritual practice in many ways. I suggest you find a way or ways that light you up and energizes your true self in a peaceful manner. I am a woman who likes change and so I like to change my spiritual practice to match my current life and desires.
Awareness:

A good place to start connecting with your spirit is by practicing awareness. Awareness is something your can learn over time. Stop and smell the roses! We are all so rushed all of the time but we can find a way to become more aware. Maybe stop at the park for 10 minutes on your way home from work to get some fresh air. Possibly take a bath at night with some essential oils to wind down. This can bring your body into a relaxed state which, in turn, helps you become more receptive to your body, mind, and spirit.
Love and let go:
“In the end these things matter most:
How well did you love?
How fully did you live?
How deeply did you let go?”
― Gautama Buddha
Ask yourself this every morning and every night and see what happens. If you live with kindness towards all living things and live in awareness, then you will trust the ability to let go. Let go of what?
Let go of the need to control your life. This is a tough one... You should have a plan in mind but many times plans fall apart and we become lost. I recommend to have an end goal in mind but do not attach to this goal so much that you are hopeless without it. Trust that you are striving toward your purpose. Sometimes we let our minds override our instincts and life purpose. We are human's, not animals so our minds can lead our life but our instincts make life easier by guiding us with decisions Why not use your mind and your instincts together? When an opportunity presents itself, your instincts will tell you "yes" or "no". You can set the tone for your life by trusting yourself and trusting nature to set you free!
