Comfort Cards

One of my favorite missions is empowering women. Many of the lessons I’ve learned working with Guides and Angels have been messages on how to nurture or encourage myself. These messages were compiled and accompany my line of illustrated Comfort Cards to be comfort for you. Cards are available as prints and postcards at my Etsy store. Load up a few as nice reminders.

10 Things to help you survive the holiday season

  1. A reminder to have dessert first: buy this comfort card as a gentle reminder.
  2. While you are buying gifts for everyone else, treat yourself to the Care of the Sensitive class, or another class to nurture your natural psychic and healing abilities.
  3. Schedule a reading for you and your dog/cat to help you both get through the holidays.
  4. Buy an original painting to make you smile. Visit my art site and escape for awhile.
  5. Sign up for the Fairy Joy email class. You can’t feel down when you are surrounded by Fairies. The perfect antidote to winter blues.
  6. Collect and laugh at your spam. Make a spam poem.
  7. Make a passion list to remind yourself of what you love. (see below)
  8. Celebrate all your accomplishments and small successes. Look at all that you are grateful for and what you have survived.
  9. Surround yourself with color. Did I mention my Color Healing class for Creative People starting in January?
  10. Realize this too will pass: buy the reminder here.

Today’s quote & announcement

This is Beauty from my character series. Beauty has reminders about self esteem.

Beauty says, “If you are feeling invisible to the world, sure enough, it’s a warning. You are beginning to leave yourself and becoming invisible and unimportant to you.”

Here is where you will find the school’s classes, etc. For those of you looking for readings, I don’t have them posted and have been shying away from them lately. If you are a regular, give me an email.

IF:Cocoon

For IF, I thought of my Barriers and Protection gown. I wish I had it sewn for real. Nowadays, everyone I know is going through major stuff and could really use a cocoon. Ironically, I just wrote about needing a safe place in my previous blog post.

I’ve been really diggin’ creating my Fairy Goddess Gowns and making custom Goddess Gown drawings. It must be the influence of watching so  much Project Runway previous series. I’m currently on Season 6 in my Netflix rotation. I find that I can express my deepest part of me–another way to access my intuition–through these drawings, and often find telling symbolism I missed way after I’ve drawn.

Daily Bliss

I am taking Sheri Gaynor’s online Creative Awakenings 30 Day Expedition. One part of that is to participate in 30 days of daily bliss. Being an artist, I thought I’d take advantage of this opportunity to draw out my bliss. Here’s the first few days:

After participating in one day of bliss-making, I experienced a fun cosmic joke. On the highway I found myself following a truck. The back said “Bliss.” I had to laugh out loud when my thick brain grabbed the message “I was following my bliss.” Ha ha! Well, we will see. One day at a time to a new Ronni.

IF:Detective

This is rather an untraditional illustration, more of a drawing, but I haven’t participated in IF for so long, I wanted to. I’ve been acting as detective lately to follow my new interests and passions and see where they tak me. Here’s my “Food” that nourishes me.

Gratefulness

Today I am just grateful…

…for all the loving support

…for prayers answered

…for my dogs I cuddle at night

…for dear friends

…for feeling safe

…for my fairy castle and yard

…for guidance

…fror the ability to help others and the gifts to help others

…and for the neighborhood rooster and crows who wake me up in the morning, because I’d probably sleep until 10.

Empaths carry too much

Everyone I know is going through major stuff.

It’s like we all decided that now is the time to really deal with the big issues of our lives, and get rid of major karma–major hindrances–so we can finally be free. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always look or feel pretty. I joke lately how what I’ve gone through in the the past six months equaled the combined experiences of the dentist’s root canal, a pap smear and having to give a speech in grade school class totally unprepared. As hard as it has been, on the positive side, I am also clearing out major beliefs that I held onto for years.

What I’ve discovered…

Have you ever stopped and realized how much of our stuff isn’t our stuff at all? As sensitive folk, this is much the case. We carry so much for others without realizing it. In my work on healing, I’ve seen so much I’ve picked up and internalized from my loved ones, and even beliefs or issues that were my parents from long ago. Perhaps as sensitive little empaths, we sponged all that wasn’t said or acknowledged, and in our desire to help, we took it on.

How much of us believe the following:

  • Parents should sacrifice themselves completely for their children.
  • We are only as worthy as the amount we give to others.
  • Carrying for others is caring.
  • What we do and accomplish = our worth.
  • Who you are is either bad or good as judged by your behaviors.

It’s amazing how much these beliefs can block us. I found that out.

And now, it’s like I am having a huge identity crisis. Who am I without the old life and these beliefs that shaped my world? I guess I will soon find out.
