The place where I share, inspire, connect & rave on...
Love blogging and raving on about life, stuff and things that make my heart sing...
#freebiefriday I love FriYay.. Do you? Today is a day to focus on my business growth. I review this constantly and look for more ways to attract amazing ladies so that I can coach and mentor in their life / business, as I know from my own experience living and running businesses that it can be challenging at times, so having someone to guide you through this process is essential.
But before I just offer a "free" session, I'd love to ask you a question first and if you say yes to any of these then it's essential you book in! And the session will have a theme - which is PURPOSE! Purpose - what is it? I had a gentleman say to me the other day during a conversation that just from speaking with me around various topics - health, wealth, spiritual etc, that I've helped him a great deal and the only reason he keeps coming back to this particular place where we frequently have these conversations is because of me and that I really should be life coaching and offer an alternative way to those that are challenged! My answer to that was of course - that's what I already do! Am I on purpose? Yes I believe so! An amazing client of mine thanked me for helping her close the gap between where she is in her business and where she'd love to be (it was her determination and me holding the space for her to grow and evolve and embrace her purpose, not me directly), Am I on purpose? Yes I believe so... If you're reading this and I have in someway added value to your life, please share.... xox Now I could go on and on and this is by no means based on ego... Nor is it meant to make you start thinking 'well what am I doing, no one says things like that to me'! But maybe they do, you're just not tuning in! But rather for you to ask - Am I living my purpose? Do I even know what that means? If I am living my purpose, how can I share it with the world and if you have no idea what your purpose is, lets identify it! So today being a day of giving, I'd love to offer you a "free' Purpose session to start living the way YOU were created to live xox Comment bellow saying yes please and we will organise a time. I love Maya Angelou BTW xo

#throwback I have very fond memories growing up with water balloons (maybe not so good for the environment). I can still hear the laughter, feel the excitement and feel that moment as you missed the hit from the incoming balloon or your balloon hit it's target - YES, score!!!
But there was also that moment when filling the water balloon up, it got so full that it broke! Darn balloon! The worst part was that if your opponents didn't play by the rules and had back up amo, then this was their chance to ambush you. And trust me, know one likes and ambush! Do you remember that little girl? The one that used to laugh, have fun, giggle at the silliest things and live life in the moment? All she dream't about was being able to wake up and do it all over again. I trust for some of us there was dark moments growing up and this can be painful, but in the dark there is always light... So focus on these light memories. Where did she go? When was the last time you actually had fun and squealed like a little girl (I don't suggest you do this right now, but consider when? WARNING: neighbors block your ears)! As much as we like to think we are 'adult', there is a part of us that is so innocent and loving and a believer of her dreams. And yet we let the opinions or dreams of others take that away from us. What did you dream about doing or being as a child? You still can do this... The opportunities that are before you are unlimited. The only thing that will stop you is that little girl inside scared to go after her dreams for fear of not reaching them. Today do something fun... Dream again...Find a park and swing on the swing. Put music on and dance like no one is watching,sing like the diva you are and laugh uncontrollably. But most of all...never forget how amazing you are... Amanda Bate Motivational Mentor & Coach 9/8/2017 0 Comments Is Just Believing Enough?#wisdom I've always loved this quote... "Always believe something wonderful is about to happen" This has inspired me today to share with you about 'beliefs' and our attachment to this as excuses or reasons we do not move forward in our lives or create Goddamn AMAZING!
We are constantly bombarded with reasons as to why we can not achieve success, love, health etc influenced by a belief system that we either fall into like sheeples or we question and create an alternative way. These influences come in many forms - governments, doctors, religion, family, friends, media etc and then create thoughts within us, which then promote a feeling, which then prompt an action. Either thought, feeling or action is neither right nor wrong, it just 'is' the individuals own experience. Which now gets me to this... If you feel that you have trouble or a challenged by believing in whatever way that resonates with you to be Goddamn amazing (the later - fear based thoughts, feelings and actions, I trust we have no problem tuning into and are far too familiar with), then you have to change a few things starting NOW! How do you do this? Start surrounding yourself with people that lift you up, not put you down. Start reading books or watching YouTube that offers you alternative ways of being and thinking tuning into success stories, meditations, How To's, etc. Educate yourself by learning to listen and filter and only absorb what you feel would benefit you on a higher level. And this is the most essential ingredient: Start talking to yourself with words that Empower you such as - "I create my world through love, success, joy and abundance", " I am enough and more", " I am amazing", " I create my world", "I am strong, courageous, and nothing can bump me off my path to success" etc... Now write down 10 affirmations / incantations and say then daily out loud as you drive or are at home and put so much love energy into this that you have no other choice but to allow that vibration to resonate with you. What would your life look like if you just believed? 8/8/2017 0 Comments Time Out For Your Soul....#teachme What a busy few days! You know when you're out doing conferences, events etc, and you finally get a minute to catch your breath? It seems as if the whole time you haven't taken one breath at all!
When you finally sit down and contemplate the last few day, you start to go over all the things you take for granted in your every day life... Early nights, more time with family, eating consciously, exercise, yoga, meditation etc... The big one for me this week is something I really love and on so many levels rejuvenates me on all levels - mind, body, spirit and that's taking a bath! Today is about teaching you to schedule time out (if it's not scheduled, there is a chance something else will fill this spot) time just for yourself. Run a bath with oils, crystals, candles, flowers etc and allow yourself to let go and relax! The real lesson in this is this... ALLOWING yourself to let go. If you don't have a bath, have a shower where you can allow an extra few minutes to wash away stress, tiredness, tension and the busyness of life! When is your next scheduled time out? 3/8/2017 0 Comments Step Back In Time...#throwback Question - Do they even sell legwarmers anymore?
I was going to a party on the weekend and I thought a pair of legwarmers would have topped off my outfit (yes it was dress up). So I'm out shopping with my son (16 years who knows everything!), when he say's "Mum are you kidding me, no one sells leg warmers anymore"! Is this true? As the thought of legwarmers came to me, a memory of how they related to me in my life came to my mind. FLASH DANCE! Wow how I loved to watch it. I always dreamed of being a dancer - not even sure that i can cut any groves on the dance floor, but evidence suggest you don't have to be good at anything in life to actually succeed at life. I've been given the chance to explore various dynamics in this field of dance, and for a time it was fun, but essentially I feel at times we fall for the 'idea' of something or someone and this can be a huge influence on our life if we let it! Trust me on this... Whatever it is that yo want to be - a dancer, a successful business women, a doctor etc, then there is a part of you that already has succeeded in that! You are all ready everything you want to become! Who owns a pair of legwarmers? XO 2/8/2017 0 Comments Who's Sitting At Your Table?#wisdom I loved the message behind this image! "Not everyone deserves a seat at the table of your life. Choose wisely"!
I often find as I speak to so many women and they are trying to please everyone in their lives. That they are trying to make everyone happy and even having this desire for the people around them to 'like' them... I trust you can understand what I am saying here! Not everyone that you have in your life - even family (I know this can be difficult for some), will understand your journey, your desires or understand you and that's perfectly OK! I recall a time that I realized I walk differently throughout this life when my one of my sisters (I have 4) partners said in a passing comment "It's always about Mandy isn't it"? As I was preparing myself to head off to India for my yoga teacher training. And yes it absolutely is! At the time i was leaving my 2 boys with my sister and my Mum (their Dad ended up showing up for them also which was great for them considering it had been over 3 years since they'd seen him), but what most people never realize is this: 1. As you become a better person for yourself, by default the people that are in your life on a deep level will also become better. (Don't be attached to better or worse, be attached to growing through personal development, books, seminars etc). I was doing this for my children essentially as I knew the rewards that would come from this next step in our journey! 2. Be very mindful (not judge), of who is feeding you the advice, as they may not be living a life by the standards you admire or see as healthy, but listen to what they says as a chance to grow. See these people are just a reflection of yourself and provide a space for you to grow and learn and become amazing, so just love them! They allow you to question your belief in yourself and reveal the weak points that offer you the most growth! 3. If there are people in your life right now that are sitting at your table and they do not offer you growth, love or support, ask right now that the lessons that you need to learn from these people be revealed and when the lesson is learnt you are making way for new people to sit at your table and trust me those people will find lessons else where also! I know I've done this many times and when I do, the most amazing beautiful people show up... and i trust as you're reading this YOU ARE ONE OF THEM xo Can you recall a time when you've experienced this? #Teachme Some of you may or may not know this, but a few years ago I became a Law Of Attraction practitioner (if you don't know what this is but are interested in how it would help you in life / business, then reach out), which gave me the tools (which I'd been using for a very long time in my life subconscious and consciously previously) to teach you how to attract into your life what it is you desire.
Now before I go any further, it's essential to understand a few fundamentals and answer a few questions based around the Law Of Attraction (LOA). Does the LOA actually work? YES it's working all of the time! Good, Bad and what ever else is in between. Can I just sit and imagine my life into existence? Yes and No! Ok so it's essential to see the vision consistently however, if you do not put any action into you life to move you towards getting the outcome you desire, then the chances of you achieving your results will be less. If you desire a relationship, a job etc you must be putting in the work to actively show the universe / God that you want this! Can I have what ever i want like loads of money? Yes of course, but before you start to move towards this with actions, first ask yourself and explore what you'd do with the money when you get it, and the essential part is understanding this otherwise you may not ever achieve this. You must feel like all the things you long for, you already have it! It's not about waiting for life to happen, or waiting till you get something thing or someone one that you truly start living! Nope its happening only NOW... Never in the past or the future... Only NOW! This is so simple, yet most wont do it or ever do it! Get a piece of paper. Write down how your life currently looks. Feel the emotions in what it is you're writing and then underline them. Be absolutely real here... If you don't have enough money, or you don't have a relationship, etc, then express it here. Now this is the fun part. Go back to what you've just written and where you've underlined the emotions, replace them with positive emotions. On another piece of paper, write down how you'd like your life to actually look! This is now what it is you'll be reading every single day! Take the old life and tear it up and bury it in the earth and trust that that is not your life..... To new beginnings! xo |
