Your Story Matters

Stories are bridges where we can meet, a light for those walking behind us on the path, and our legacy to the world. Your story matters.

Back Yourself 24/7

Posted on: May 17th, 2017 by Lynika Write A Comment

 

So don’t beat yourself up when you’re going through some of the less enjoyable bits…

Life is a medley.

No matter what you do there will be easier and not so easier times.

What matters is that you back yourself.

24/7 you have your human self to care for.

Treat that being with integrity and respect.

Your self care impacts the whole world for the greater good.

It makes you a whole being who by proxy gives permission and inspiration for others to do the same. 

Take care of yourself and shine on my friend

You matter.

The bright messenger…

The bright messenger…

Contrary to many negative opinions on this emotion, I personally don’t view anger as the bad guy. 

Like money, it’s the use of it in our hands which determines a positive or negative outcome. 
Anger is a powerful and bright friend who alerts us when our boundaries are being crossed. 
It lets us know when something matters and we need to take action. 
It allows us to get clear, to take a stand, to not force our self-knowing into mute rage inside our bodies. 
Anger helps us rise, and say: ‘No’ 
Anger tells us when to walk away from what doesn’t serve us and it gifts us the fuel to believe in our worthiness, to choose what does belong in our lives. 
Don’t compromise your integrity by misjudging or fearing your anger. It’s a messenger. 
It says;  “This matters, and so beautiful soul, do you.”
– Dr Lynika

Stand up. Stand out. Shine on…

Stand up, Stand out, Shine on

Use whatever energy comes your way as fuel.

“Those who hate you don’t win unless you hate them because then you destroy yourself”

You’re not what others think of you. They’re simply painting their own projection.

Step aside of their illusion and back into your own bones.

You are who you say you are. Own yourself.

This world needs your light.

You matter.

You were born to be you.

Stand up.

Stand out.

Shine on!

 

When it’s over…

“I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world.”

Live while you’re alive, right now this moment, this one and the next, these moments are your life.

Live in all your bones, don’t settle for someone else’s version of you or your life.

You came here to be you.

Live that amazing self out loud.

“When it’s over, I want to say: all my life
I was a bride married to amazement.
I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms.

When it is over, I don’t want to wonder
if I have made of my life something particular, and real.
I don’t want to find myself sighing and frightened,
or full of argument.

I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world.”

-Mary Oliver

Loss is a reminder to live w i d e and deep

My Brother My Hero

Sometimes life calls us to take unplanned yet vital journeys into necessary self care. Shock and bereavement from sudden, multiple losses in my family took me into one of these journeys over the past months.

Those who know me personally or through my work, know I advocate, validate and honour the need for grief, privacy and space for all. Self care is imperative, it is no different when that grief is my own. 

Most recently (a few short weeks ago) I lost one of the most beloved people in my life. He mirrored very much the heart I have for this world. We were twin like in that way. Having a birthday (both his, and mine soon) without him, highlights the great space he held in my life and I want to honour that space for a moment here.

He was a gifted singer/musician and incredibly intelligent, loving man, his songs and conversation, his great love for me and this world live limitlessly in my heart and thoughts.

I am blessed to call him my brother, he was my first hero and remains a hero. For all he endured he continued to love deeply and give to others however he could throughout his pain and illness, he was one of the most selfless people I have met.

I have always said life is here and now, this moment right here is our life. More than anything loss is a reminder to live wide and deep in each moment we have. I’ve spoken often on how each moment is also a new years eve. Again loss reminds us to claim and own ourselves, our moments, our lives.

My brother was young, the moments we had together too brief, I cherish each moment and rise with grace and dignity in honour of those who didn’t get the chance to be here long or long enough.

This moment right here, right now, this is your moment, the most precious one you have, love and own them all, stay as present as you can and relish any you get to share with another. There are no time guarantees.

Live out loud.

Live while you’re alive.

Love to you all.

Your track record is 100%
