Are you nice to yourself? Do you compliment yourself? Encourage yourself? LOVE yourself? If not you, then who? It is easy to get caught up in the trap of looking for LOVE and validation outside of ourselves, the trap of seeking others approval, the trap of looking for someone to tell us what to do or what direction to take. We are here to remember our LOVE and our divine essence and empower ourselves. It is time to wake up and embrace ourselves as we are, accepting our perceived imperfections and ...

Happy Summer Solstice! Solstice is a perfect time for getting fired up and stepping into your light, following your passion, and beating the drum and rhythm you are here to sound.
Open your heart, choose LOVE, and make every moment count!
Choosing LOVE means choosing compassion... choosing forgiveness... choosing gentleness... choosing tolerance... choosing acceptance... choosing non-judgement... choosing kindness... choosing patience... In choosing LOVE, we learn to embrace ourselves 
Remember to breathe deep breaths to move energy through your body and stay connected to higher energies. There is a Divine flow of energy surrounding you and your life journey. Raise your energy vibration to connect to that flow.
When working on something or making changes, you can choose to freak out over it, wasting energy, or to trust and surrender to the energy flow, as all is in Divine Order.
Remember that you attracted the situation or change because you are ready for it and everything 
Each day we are blessed with a powerful opportunity to begin anew, to start fresh, if we choose to embrace it. We can surrender the shortcomings of yesterday and any self-criticisms and self-judgements we made. We can release old patterns that are no longer working for us. We can choose to see ourselves in our new day with a clean slate and new possibilities. We have the ability to let go of that which didn't work and to open up to that which may.
Sometimes we just need a reminder. 
Trust is required now, beyond the degrees that you have previously trusted. Faith... Understanding... Forgiveness... Compassion... LOVE... All have new depths of meaning...
Go to the depths of your being to clear all illusion, all that is not truth, all that is not LOVE. Only LOVE is real.
We must cultivate the LOVE of ourselves first and foremost by turning all of the above within and understanding and forgiving ourselves, being compassionate with ourselves, and loving ourselves.

We move through our days, sometimes with them seeming to blend into one another. Appointment to appointment. Errand to errand. Thought to thought. How often do you stop just to be present with yourself, present with your awareness? How often are you present in your challenges and your pain? How often are you present in your joy and your LOVE?
With hectic schedules and preoccupied minds, it is easy to lose yourself. Not making time for yourself simply to be present with your self 
My Empowerment
I am empowered
to open my heart now.
I am empowered
to feel my feelings now.
I am empowered
to be who I am here to be now.
LIVE LOVE
Sending you LOVE, Valorie 
My Heart Knows
I remember in this moment now...
My steps are always guided
though the path be not always clear.
The sun is always shining
though clouds obscure at times its rays.
My heart always knows
deep within my being
that for which I seek understanding.
As I remove the walls I've placed around it,
I see more clearly,
I hear more surely,
I LOVE more purely.
LIVE LOVE
Sending you LOVE, Valorie 
LOVE is an incredible energy and has the power to heal. When we are "in love", we enjoy this energy and float around feeling great. Then the ego sets in, we call it "reality", and we begin to find faults and lower the vibration of the emotions we were feeling. What if we chose to allow LOVE instead... to open our hearts to ourselves... to open to the truth of LOVE as a powerful energy rather than limiting it to an emotion we feel or feel we lack?
