Mountains, Books, Dreams Coming True...It's all About the Focus. How about you?

Deep breath, stretch, exhale...
Again.
Isn't life grand? 
No really it is! 
Life can change so much in an instant. 


You either think "GRAND" or 
focus on what you don't want, the what if's, the negatives...
I try my hardest to focus on Fantastic


:) 
But sometimes I "fall off my grand tricycle and get brain damage. 

(eating poorly, not enough exercise, not enough sleep can create crashes)
It's all about balance...
I get out my oils and do as the beginning states:


Deep breath, stretch, exhale...
:) 
Ah life is grand isn't it? 
So many flipping awesome adventures.
And the ability to create our lives for the better or the 
worse depending on what you want to experience.


I am juggling tightrope walker.
That's the way it is right now...
I am a great manifester.


"Always remember to focus on what you want BECAUSE 
if you focus on the shit you don't want, 
well... you can manifest that too."

There are many things in life that bring me joy:

Spirituality
Family
Outdoor Adventures
Art


Sharing Oils
Designing our future Green Pad
Alchemy
Learning 
What brings you Joy? 


 "I believe its important to be aware
 for the health of the human race and to find 
Joy in sharing helpful truths 
for knowing is an impetus of change."

I believe my purpose in life is to spread joy.


"When we speak, it must be with the realization 
that God has given our words significance. 
He has ordained for them to be important"
-Paul David Tripp


I believe Joy is life sustenance.

I finally finished writing my first Book;
(I took a break/writers block/life experience)

This is going on the outside of the studio above the planter box that says "plant your seed :)"
Water your Garden with Love 
(She Spreads Love)

It's a picture book about a little girl 
named Pixy Pocahontis..

It's all written and illustrating has begun...

thus =


"I am juggling tightrope walker."
managing business/workshops, essential oils, 
Grizzly Stadium mural, 
writing and illustrating a book, family, 
planning our future green pad and way of life. 

 SOMETIMES a lot of ideas come to me at a time.
 I have to go with the flow. 


 No one can stop Flow, she just comes. 


That is the way..

                                      

Follow your heart. 

 Be loving and speak your truth with kindness. 

Peace
Natalie

Gosh golly Gee Whizzicers...
Sometimes I feel like taking my finger to my lips and wiggling it up
 and down really fast to make that silly annoying sound. 


The last couple of weeks have felt a little like that..

It has been a challenging few moments..But HEY isn't life supposed to keep us on our toes? 
Sometimes I feel its either Quiet or WTF? 
But I mean WTF in a Positive light. 
:)
If I had to put it into a picture it would look like a tornado
of beautiful things swirling all around...
The foundation of the tornado would be a spiraling staircase which
 I am climbing. 
As I walk the stairs with everything I need swirling around me,


 I focus on the stairs and grab what I need from the whirling space I swirl towards my destinations. 
I have faith in this process which sometimes is a 
Tornado.
Being a Sole Proprietor, Entrepreneur, is a BIG Job.
There is so much self development that is gained 


in such ventures. Especially when you are looking in the right places. 
I have had a passion for Essential oils since 2009 when I was first introduced to them by Cristina Campbell. It was love at first sniff and I have learning about their use ever since. 
I love everything about them and this is why I use them...

Anyways...

I have to share out how I swirl towards my destinations...
I first began talking about Blissfull Living Studio in 2009. I started writing, planning, visualizing. I even got a chance to test the "taste" of something like it at a local Retail shop/Coffee House The Abbey Espresso Bar one Saturday a month...Here is a little lob blog snippet on it :) 

Moving on..that was right around that time when I learned of the oils from Cristina Campbell, "Lady of the Oils".

So there I was, making art, just started the Blissful Living Gatherings, learned about the oils and then...
Became Pregnant.
Had a baby, made more art, used the oils for family and personal use, made more art, had another baby...Used more oils...


YOU NEED SUPPORT WHEN YOU HAVE KIDS! 
My support was the oils. My husband was working WAY TOO MUCH,
 I had a new baby, orders to fulfill, then another baby, 
stir crazy...


Don't get me wrong, my life was NOT horrible 
but I like to FEEL my best. 
I don't like walking around cranky, negative and Zombified from lack of sleep, not feeding myself enough, getting enough exercise... 
The oils were helpful at keeping my spirits lifted when I was tired, unable to focus well, feeling sad, mad or even if I just wanted to get a little more spiritual...


Another way one could put it is...Some take Prozac or the like to make it through challenging times, I dripped and rubbed, inhaled or ingested essential oils. 
Currently my favorite use for the oils is my daily oils regime. I use Harmony on my Solar Plexus and White Angelica on my shoulders. With the Application I say an Personal Affirmation three times. 
Every time I smell those oils through out the day I am reminded of that affirmation.
The oils are such a great tool.

Grabs hiking stick*....
So here I am now in BLISSFULL LIVING STUDIO the REAL DEAL, not just the monthly Saturday Event...
And here I am selling the oils. 

The oils have become an intrinsic part of my lifestyle and I believe they need to be shared. 



I'm learning even more how to share them, how to network, build relationships. 
This is something I was/am needing in my Studio Art Business, almost like a missing link to success. Being an Artist I am at times pretty Solo making shit, lol...So learning how to build business relationship and such is really helpful to me :) 

Not only does Young Living have the possibility of completely changing one's health for the better, but also have the building blocks one needs to be a successful Entrepreneur no matter what business you are in. Young Living ALSO has the ability to provide GREAT abundance and prosperity and that's awesome to me because I like to travel, philanthropy, and have expensive taste. 
:-O
The Abundance is  monetary, emotional, physical and spiritual. 


Young Living touches every beneficial aspect of life and I am so grateful. 


So I am learning this business parallel to Blissfull Living Studio art workshops and creating art. 

So yeah, Tornado...but its all there... 
and spirals and swirls are pretty cool looking :)  
Everything that I have ever wanted to do I am doing...

Out of High School I wanted to be a nurse and at the time the Vortex wasn't open for that so here I am, the vortex has opened..
I am doing all of what I love.

A lifestyle of Art and Wellness.
 I don't know if that would have 
happened if I had gone another route. 
Maybe?


I am a wife, Mother, Artist, Author, Wellness Advocate, Teacher and Entrepreneur making my dream come true....

I am Slique, Chic, Modern, Savvy...Focused, loving, artsy and Driven
What's on your Vision Board?

Bliss out hug!!!

Wonderment..


learning...

All pieces of of life...

Still chewing.


A Hibernation of sorts.
