Scan your life for heavy burdens you might be carrying around. You may see them in the form of toxic people around you, clutter in the home, or that nagging voice inside that keeps you playing small.

What would be different if you just traveled light?

With Love & Light,

Ariane

I got involved in yoga, meditation, and writing all of which helped me to cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness. I read a ton of books on the subject and exposed myself to new ideas and expanded realms of thought. I welcomed in a new framework of how the world works and how my existence contributed to it. I learned about this thing called fear and how it can sneakily attached itself to our own sense of identity. I also learned about love and light and what it means to aspire to live by this daily. I also learned about peace and what true happiness feels like; I mean down to the core happiness that comes from within and not from any large sum of money. When it comes to confidence, security, passion, joy, abundance, endurance, enthusiasm; they are very much available to you in the present moment and they all come from you. Very similarly, fear, insecurity, doubt, lethargy, victimization, guilt, worry, disappointment, regret are also very available to you in the present moment. Unfortunately for most of us, our tendency by default is to fall victim to the latter feelings so much so that they cloud our ability to see the situation and ourselves clearly. 

The same way we find ourselves surrounded by our fears and doubts that often feel just as threatening as a gun to our face. Our sense of control and security is rattled and the discomfort is enslaving, as we see no other way out. We surrender to our fears, give in and give up our power. This type of surrender leave us feeling defeated and disempowered as we feel we have lost and the fears have claimed victory over us yet again.

Fear at the basic level is when our sense of security is disrupted. Our security is created from our ability to control the situation.

I've always been amazed at how all time seems to stop when I lift the camera to my eye. We start to see our worlds differently as everything around us starts to take shape. We become completely absorbed in the present. There's no other beautiful place to be than being in the moment.

Come join me this Sunday for my new photography workshop; Meditative Photo Walk.

Imagine a world where we saw ourselves as confident and fully committed to achieving our dreams.

Imagine a world where the voice of one creates her own destiny and paves the way for those behind her.

Imagine a world where the feminine spirit was allowed out to play, create, and have her say in the world!
