onward + up oct! you ready?

Happy October!

Lordy, lawdy! Where has 2019 gone?

I think I may have said that in last week’s newsletter but my head is seriously mystified at how fast this year is flying. 🙂

So…what does October hold?

If you’re new here, welcome! Every first week of the month, I share a Monthly Goddess Guidance Oracle video and pull some cards to interpret to give you an overview of the entire month.

Grab a sheet of paper and pen, and head over to watch it as I always recommend you pause the video after each card to jot down your own insights!

Enjoy

i have a weird issue (Q+A time!)

It’s Q+A week, where I take questions that come up in our fabulous community.

Do you have a question you’d like me to answer on a future blog? Go here to share it!

Today’s is about self-sabotage…and too many dates.

Q: Diana, I have a weird issue. I have more than 4 dates booked this week and I know I should feel really excited but all I want to do is have some alone time with myself. I’ve been saying I want more dates and now I have them and I feel like I’m sabotaging. What should I do? 

Even if you are not currently dating, this applies to all commitments you are making to yourself and others, so check out the advice in this week’s video! 

Prefer to read? I also include my written answer below

A: This is not a weird issue-thank you for asking and sharing this!


First off, just want to acknowledge you for creating what you said you wanted-4 dates in a week is amazing! And I also hear a lot of self-judgement-whenever we use the word “should” that’s a cue to look at-what could be happening and what can easily happen when we get flooded with awesome invitations, but we haven’t made self-care a priority is this low-level feeling of resentment, which may be what you are experiencing. It’s less about the guys you’re booking dates with and more highlighting that you need to carve out alone/recharge time before you agree to dates. We only have a finite amount of energy in any given day or week, so making sure you are filling your own energetic bucket first is key! My recommendation is to look at your calendar and block off 1-2 days or even half days that are just for you. I call these Flow Days but basically that is your sacred time. No dates or other appointments get scheduled during those times unless you have the energy and want to. This will protect your energy, fill up your tank and make it much easier to say yes to those awesome dates!

Much love,
Diana

wait ’till the pan is hot…

Happy Wednesday!

Did you feel anything coming off the heels of the Pisces Full Moon last Friday/weekend? 

Full Moons are times of illumination and insight- where do you want to go? What needs to be eliminated or invited into your life?

Often times, we finally see the clouds part and get some clarity around what we want, and then are in such a damn hurry to get there.

Case in point: The other day, I was making myself pancakes (I loooove Kodak cakes, but I digress…). 

And I remember having an ex tell me that I had to wait until the pan was actually hot before pouring the batter on the skillet.

Ever since I can remember, I’ve just been so darn eager to get that first pancake out there that I sometimes even forget to turn on the stove!

And it got me thinking- relationships are kind of like that.

When we rush to “get him/her to like us” “snag a date” or “get the proposal, etc” before the proverbial pan is hot, good and ready, it can leave you feeling like I was waiting for that perfect pancake to cook …ASAP.

Confused. (Did I turn it on? Is the stove even working?! Piece of crap.)

Annoyed. (My stomach is rumbling-maybe I should have just bought those really crappy pre-made microwavable ones. They are good enough…not really.)

Frustrated. (Maybe I’m not supposed to have pancakes…cue dramatic music as I pretend I actually prefer a grapefruit and toast…not.)

I just had to wait until the stove was hot.

And chill out while I waited.

Instead of worrying or obsessing about why it was taking so long, I could have listened to Lewis Howes “School of Greatness” podcast. 

Journaled.

Heck, maybe even snuck in a plank or two.

So..yea, that’s your message this week.

Q: Where in your life do you feel in a hurry? Will you do us both (and the Universe) a favor and experiment with waiting until the pan is hot before freaking out?

Want what you want.

Take inspired actions as shown.

And then chill the F–out, ok?

My stomach really is rumbling as I type this sentence, so I’ll sign off for now.

Have an amazing week!

ps: Are you wanting some extra support to break through old patterns that you know are not helping you call in that amazing relationship? 

A big part of self care is loving yourself enough to stop going at it alone.

This is HUGE and if you are ready to get the ball rolling and explore, let’s hop on a consult call (complimentary and no strings attached) so I can learn more about you, what you want to create and how I can help. Go here

do this breath to let go of anxiety

Happy Wednesday!

This week, I’d love to share with you a very simple exercise to release anxiety and get out of your head.

As you know, when you find yourself up there, the energy constricts and it’s easy to think that you are not supported and block the flow of love.

In those moments when your mind is running away, obsessing about why something isn’t happening…or you find yourself beating yourself up for not doing this or that…it’s a wonderful remedy.

I call it the Heart-Womb Breath.

Clients have been using it all month with great success and reporting:

  • better sleep
  • improved mental clarity
  • feeling of calm amidst challenges and changes
  • lightness and more energy!

Check it out below (it takes literally 10 seconds and you can do it as long as you want).

sensational september! your message inside

Hi Goddess!

Happy September-can you believe we have 4 months left in 2019?

Seriously…where has it gone?!

If you are new to my world, welcome! Every first week of the month, I love pulling Goddess oracle cards for the entire month to share what you can expect on an energetic level.

As you watch, I encourage you to get out a sheet of paper and pause the video after each card, asking, “What could this mean for me?”

Pay attention to the symbols you are drawn to and write down what you feel.

September is a fabulous month for manifesting with grace and also coming at life from your heart space vs your head space.
