Beginning Again - Letting Go and Rewriting Our Story

Hello There 2024! and Hello dear You!

Did you manage to see fireworks as a way of welcoming in the New Year? Or were you tucked up in your bed, far, far away in dreamland?

I’m usually the latter, but this year I decided to go with Fireworks!

And going in with a bang! Is a theme I’ve chosen to continue with this year so far...

Currently, I’m taking a deep dive into my negative subconscious programming. This also goes in true opposite form to what I would usually do this time of year, which is – make long winded lists of goals and dreams I want to manifest by the years end, or vision boards, with all that said in pretty pictures.

That doesn’t mean I won’t be thinking about all I would like to achieve or manifest this year; it’s just I’ve decided I need to let go of some ‘stuff’ and clean the old internal closets out first. Obviously as you do that, you create more room to welcome in the new, much better stuff!

Just like clearing out our physical closets and drawers it all makes perfect sense!

Whilst writing my memoir last year (and the year before – it took me a while, though most of it was written in 2022) I did have a chance to revisit some of the trauma type memories and the resulting internal negative mind programs I had running in the background due to past experiences and situations in my life.

However, I admit when I was writing the book, I didn’t dwell on them too much, and I really didn’t take the time and effort it required or deserved to truly examine, heal, and kick those negative subconscious beliefs out of my universe!

(It may have also had something to do with not wanting to stop the flow of writing and a bit of a fear belief that drove me on to get the book completed... Sometimes fear can even be a positive thing!)

Enter 2024. “When the student is ready the teacher appears” or something like that, is how the saying goes. Anyway, there must be a planet Saturn up there somewhere in my astrological alignment this year because this is the year that shit is about to get real and I’m done with holding onto all this crap, and all that stuff, basically. I’m really ready for a change (I think most of the world is by now actually) but the difference this year is that I’m focused, and I’m prepared to work for it!

I’m also told we are in a planetary cycle or a number 8 year, which is all about goals, hard work, stability and achievements, Cha-ching! Yes, right on the money, oh, and speaking of that, number 8 years are all about money too.

Which is exactly what I’m hoping to manifest after I clean these damn negative subconscious beliefs out!

I’ve never been comfortable asking or even talking about money – hence my negative belief systems around this, but I’m working on it, and I have faith (I might even put some money on it, bad mum joke, sorry!) that there will be a swift turn around before 2024 waves goodbye.

My mind is not the only thing I’m working on in this challenging but highly recommended 33 day program. I actually started detoxing my body first, and have continued this throughout the program so far (I’m on day 10) Some of the things I’ve been actively and mindfully engaging in are: Kundalini Yoga as well as what I call ‘normal yoga’, forest bathing, grounding (going bare feet on the earth each day), cold showers and ocean swims, green juices, supplements and lots of healthy salads, meditation, massage and energy healing (reiki) when I can.

This year I’ve also had the occasional alcoholic drink, Dorito’s and chocolate. Because I listened deeply to my body and that’s what it wanted. Everything in balance, right?

By next month I should be better placed to inform you on how it all went down or how I kicked that shit to China to stay- the- heck- away- from- me! I don’t expect fireworks will light up the sky like they did on January 1st but I do know that I feel so much lighter already and that I’m astounded at all the things (memories) that have been stashed away that I haven’t thought about for years! I thought they had all vanished! But no, they were on overdrive somewhere in the back of my mind, just running the show.

But not no more.

Hey, did I also mention that as the year began we were in a mercury retrograde? Which means stuff that was past was coming back up and old things reappeared and all that jazz. Which is actually kinda cool, because I was visiting my childhood home and I had a whole heap of stuff come up to the surface (which was what actually started me on this whole subconscious mind reprogramming thing to be honest) and also, I decided to kick my business back into business – the holistic health side anyway. This side is what am most passionate and excited about (apart from my writing) and it’s what I had to put aside or on hold when Covid first entered.

And I know covid is still around, but I like to think that it’s not getting the better of me and my dreams!

So there, that’s a big thing to start the year off with too! Feel free to share my biz details with anyone and thanks in advance xx But hey, that’s enough about me!

What I’m also interested in this year and have been thinking about is YOU!

As a writer you can’t afford (there we go, another money connotation) not to think about what your readers might be thinking or doing, so What are you doing or thinking about letting go of this year? Is it a job, a belief, a relationship, or house maybe? do tell! Or are you more focused on the manifesting part and have that vision board creative masterpiece all stuck together ready to fire?

Either way, I want to hear about it if you want to share it and, before I forget! I’m excited to share my 5 Steps to Reprogramming the Subconscious Mind will be available to 3 lucky people for free this year. So, if you or someone you know is interested and committed enough to want to tackle their crap this year, feel free to shout it out loud and around, and please get in touch with me. I will be putting all the details out in the coming months...

So, not to end on a crappy note talking about negative stuff, challenges, hard work and all, I thought I would just share another joy filled doggy pic of my delightful boy, lapping up the amazing environment and summertime in our beautiful part of the world.
