2015 Is Your Year To Shine!
by Gia Dalton DOM AP Dipl. Ac
Are you torn between being who you are, and who people think you should be? Well tell them to put on their Sunglasses as it is about to get real bright. 2015 is your year to Shine!!!
If you feel the need to conform in order to be accepted and loved, and as a result, walk around dimly lit, if at all, the good news is that is about to change.
2015 is a year of expansion and growth. You have co-created the life you are living. If you are feeling, unfilled and unhappy, you can change that by adopting a few new strategies to get you there.
Half of your life may be based on truths, and the other, resentfully engaged in acts of duty and illusion. What part of who you present to the world is authentically you? What aspects would you like to expand upon? What have you been hiding behind? How would you like to shine your light?
Are your likes and dislikes your own or inherited? Embracing individual preferences is something that leads to greater self-love, acceptance and happiness. Much of what we own, may have adopted due to necessity, guilt or even shame. They may not be our personal preferences. This leads to a disconnect from self and unhappiness.
There comes a time when we become tired of limiting belief systems which hold us back from becoming who we were meant to be. We feel a disconnection. At that point we begin the process of untangling ourselves from the untruths, so that we can emerge gloriously, renewed, and free.
Fear of judgment, our family histories, and life experiences sit on our shoulders. We carry them like a monkey on our back. In reality everything we experience are actually catalysts for change. They do not define us. They are envoys taking us from one place to another. Calling us back to who we were before all the adding and subtracting of life.
Here are a few ways to purge defined, limiting ideals and beliefs that are based on the perceptions of others, rather than your own. When released, you will emerge courageous, powerful and strong. 2015 is a year to release what no longer serves you so that you may share and shine your light. A year to embrace your unique style, talents and abilities.
10 Steps to Shine
Shine Tip #1 – What do you really want?
Get honest with yourself about that. You may have thought at one time that you wanted something, however as you have expanded and grown, it is no longer a priority. Release it. Hold what you do want, with powerful intention. Separate from anything that is not yours. Create the space by de-cluttering your personal space, inside and out. Infuse your life with what you want. Embrace what makes your heart sing. If you are dutifully and resentfully going through motions, let them go, so that they may be replaced with joyful experiences.
Shine Tip #2 – What are you afraid of?
Look at it. Take inventory without judgment. Change your perception. Fear is usually based on the unknown. Once you examine your fears, they will subside. Lower level energies belong under your foot. Think of them there. If you need to write them down, rip them up, burn them, flush them. You can only change what you acknowledge.
Shine Tip #3 – Write your Love story.
We all have one. Write from then, to now, to the future. Write the story as you would like it to be. It is never too late for a happy ending. You hold the pen to a blank sheet of paper. You have the power to create a life that was born from a dream.
Shine Tip #4 – Harness your truth.
Goodness, Grace and Glory. Offer forgiveness to yourself and others. If you are harboring resentment it is difficult to move forward. It is time to let it go. Practice gratitude by finding blessings and beauty in each moment. Know that what you have is enough, and everything waiting for you down the road will be awesome too. Expressing gratitude creates a powerful high vibrational energy. It attracts like energy, making you an irresistible magnet for more of the same.
Shine Tip #5 – Expect the best and the best will come.
Do your best. Be bold when you set intentions. Pay no mind to critical voices. People will talk no matter what and some people will never be happy no matter what you do. Separate yourself from censorship and the opinions of others. Make yourself happy. As you do, happy people will begin gravitating towards you, and you towards them. Gather and commune with like-minded people and groups. This is essentially important. We need each other and this will strengthen your sense of self. Also people who shine like to be around other people who shine. People who are in darkness, need a light to shine on them.
Shine Tip #6 – Be “truly” aligned with authentic intention for your highest good, and it will come.
If what you want does not arrive, something better is on its way. Accept what is, and imagine life as you would like it to be. Don’t worry about how it will happen, and do not let any thought on the contrary stand in your way. Crave success the same way you dream it. No fear. No complaints. No hesitation. Bold intention paired with positive, creative imagination. You are a work in progress.
Shine Tip #7 – Create a Vision Board to clarify your intentions.
Clip pictures from magazines. Write affirmations and mantras. Display it where you will be reminded daily. Post notes of gratitude on your bathroom mirror and the refrigerator. Make a plan and take small steps in that direction. What you think you deserve, becomes a reality. You deserve all that desire. Be bold in the asking.
Shine Tip #8 – Know that the next time will be best time as you are authentically you.
As you evolve and change, happiness will be something you carry with you wherever you go. Shine your unique light with the world, as everyone has something special to offer. You can love, and be loved unconditionally. You are open. A place inside of you knows exactly who you are. Tap into that place. Be willing to do the work in order to change the concept of yourself. Practice positive self-talk. You will have greater confidence as you trust that who you are is enough. Everything that you believed to be true got you where you are at this moment. Everything you believe today will take you where you aspire to be tomorrow.
Shine Tip #9 – In 2015, let your light SHINE!
Be the glorious, magnificent embodiment of energy and essence you were destined to be. It’s okay to make mistakes along the way. Laugh at them. Let go of any preconceived ideas you may have. Be creative and free. Go with the natural ebb and flow of life, embracing our interconnectedness. There are no boundaries. Whatever is calling to your name…it is meant for you. It was yours the moment you desired it.
Shine Tip #10 – SHARE YOUR LIGHT WITH THE WORLD!
Be a mentor for others. Find a mentor for yourself.
