Top 3 Magazines for Vision or Dream Boards - MY PICKS

Tired of thumbing through ads when looking for great pictures? I have three suggestions but you might not want to cut into these because they're not cheap and filled with so many beautiful images. I'm starting with a new favorite...

1. Happinez a magazine that focuses on peace, tranquility and authenticity. Its publication feels more like something you would want to collect. Price $17+

2. The Simple Things is filled with images that say so much from food to features its all here. I also liked the typography :)$9+  

3. Private Island is everything your traveling mind needs to wonder into the realm of "possibilities." It features islands for sale or rent and this is the perfect magazine for your dream board. $14+

#IntuitionRocks with The Creative View

Since March 3, 2015 I've been hashing trending thoughts with a few creatives on Google+ hangouts. Each time it get's better and the conversations are full of "aha" moments. This particular session was about intuition and how to recognize it in your life.

#IntuitionRocks YouTube

Grace's signature "Hmmm" look that usually get's me thinking. She has such deep insight. 

TCV isn't complete without Kiala's water. Every session she shares insight about it's importance in our lives. <3

Of course I have some sort of tea but my favorite thing to share is a different mug during our meet-ups.

I try to add an art journal page after our sessions. This one is from a previous burst of inspiration. PEACE be the Journey.

#iLoveTBC , Day 27 - Celebrate don't tolerate.

Having the "End" in mind is a good habit because it teaches us to be mindful of the journey. I truly hope that you are planning a BIG PARTY after your 30-Days. Don't just tolerate the fact that you tried something new. Celebrate your steps toward self-discovery and wellness.

How you celebrate is completely up to you. So be original and have fun planning a way to commemorate the occasion. PEACE be the Journey.

#iLoveTBC , Day 23 - Meditate to be courageous.

Sometimes you have to dig deep and find the courage to follow through. Sure, we're all good a having big ideas or starting a 30-day challenge but what does it take to finish strong. I believe that it takes courage. 

Watch the 1-Minute Meditation and doodle or write a few images that come to mind. It's just one minute, you can hold back the sun for a moment of stillness. 

It takes courage to...

• Re-frame your thinking.
• Add positive thoughts.
• Build new thought patterns.
• Step AWAY from the things that will cause you to fall.
• Step AWAY from the people that will cause you to fall.
• To believe that you are meant to grasp happiness and own it.
• Finish what you started.
• Stop giving into distractions.
• Ask for "Help" when you need support to reach your goal.

PEACE be the Journey.

#iLoveTBC , Day 19 - People reflect our perception.

Have you ever walked out of your house and forgot to put on deodorant? Then you go on your way and you're sure that everyone notices. A friend say's hello and you just raise an eyebrow politely because you're too afraid to wave out.

Which causes one to ponder... How often does our own self perception get in the way?  

Go around and ask close family members or friends to describe you in one word. Then reflect on their verbal expression. Is that what you expected?

#iLoveTBC , Day 18 - Why you need FUN.

I use to think "Fun" only happened during family vacations. Then one day I decided to treat my weekends like mini-vacations. I though it would be easy to plan a fun event on Saturday or Sunday but it wasn't. I found myself catching up on laundry, cleaning gutters, dusting and the mundane list goes on. 

The truth is that we need fun in our lives just as much as fitness, nutrients, purpose and passion. 

• Fun recharges your emotional batteries.
• Fun allows you to de-stress creatively.
• Fun builds your self confidence.
• Fun is a part of your self-care routine. 
• Fun keeps you young at heart.

After weeks of unsuccessful stay-cation's (stay + vacation: It's when you don't travel too far) I decided to make a plan and involve my family. This is how the conversation went...
1. In order for us to have fun weekends we have to do our house chores during the week.

2. From now on Tuesday is our laundry day and Thursday will be our heavy cleaning.

3. Kitchen, Bedrooms, Bathroom is daily so put things back where you got them and clean-up after yourselves.

4. By Friday everything should be done and we're FREE on the weekends.

So far they've kept to their chore list and I have too. We all look forward to weekends because we work hard during the week. PEACE be the Journey.

#iLoveTBC , Day 17 - How to become a diamond and not a lump of coal.

We are all aware of a diamonds value but do you know how they're created? It's formed through intense pressure and unbelievable conditions. The extreme compression, tension and stress on a lump of coal creates one of life's most treasured gems. 

Does the life of a diamond sound familiar? How do we harness this lesson?

1. Breathe - Be conscious of your body during stressful situations and be kind to yourself.
2. Accept - You might not like what's going on but decide what is in your control and what isn't. Focus on what you can do and release the rest.
3. Build - Your internal structure with positive things. Read and listen to encouraging words and music. 
4. Expand - Give yourself room to grow and change. Learn or try new things and increase your value. 

Below is an exercise to get you to try something new and tap into your creative side. 
    

Each day you're making good decisions towards living vibrant and creative. They may feel like little steps but it will all add up in the end. PEACE be the Journey

#iLoveTBC , Day 16 - Get out of the conversation!

Get out of the constant self-talk of, "Someday, Maybe, I wish I could..." and just make IT happen. What have you been talking about but never took the time to start? How much time has passed by since you identified this desire/idea.

The iLove Pledge it a call to action for all of us. We were no longer going to just talk about being healthy. We made plans, took a stand & did it one day at a time.

Here's another funny video filmed with my two friends Kiala Givehand & Grace Howes hashing #MakeItHappen :)

After watching the collabō write down your thoughts. Don't forget to influence others in the iLove way of thinking and feeling. Stick to the pledge and PEACE be the Journey.

#iLoveTBC , Day 15 - Cultivate Good Things

What is your ideal garden? What would you have growing in your back yard? After all the skies the limit into what you want. Why not design it today!

What would it feel like to feed your family straight from your garden? Yet we all know that things take time such as growing a garden and growing your health. Be patient, get "good" water & nourish often.
