The Lipstick Diaries Vol. 9: Putting the "Meh" in Mac Mehr

 


Is it just me, or have the past few weeks just been seemingly lack-luster?!  Like it's missing all of it's Sparkle...I don't know, its been kinda, Beige...Even Christmas didn't hold its same Joy...I get it; it all things, there are cycles; and Winter is a symbolic death; meant to prepare us for the rebirth of Spring...but this is ridiculous!  I literally Felt it this time.  It was like my energy automatically shifted and fell in line.  This, of course, should have been my first indication to chill, but Nope.  Let me just tell you, I was NOT ready!  Smack-dab in the middle of my busiest season, my productivity needed to be at an all time high...The most menial of tasks were seemingly arduous...Instead of falling into my natural rhythm, I pressed on; harder...the burst of much-needed energy never arrived.  In those moments, I failed to realize that it was never supposed  to...

Everything felt against the grain except rest.  The thing was, I has shit to do!  It was an internal war that I had to go within to fight...It was my own internal landscape that provided the clarity.  I was supposed to be taking it easy; point blank period.  The Universe was telling me to slow down; take my time; it would all get done.  Although this was trying my patience in unimaginable ways, it was necessary.   Just like in makeup,  neutrals are essential to ANY kit, there are times in life when Beige is necessary.  Sometimes, the neutrality of the liminal space is precisely where we need to be.  The longer we fight it, the longer we remain.  Thank You Universe for preserving my energy for New Beginnings when I couldn't see the forest for the trees...somebody up there must Love Me... ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ’ซThe Queen

Perfecting the Art of Peace

  It's official...I'm in my Soft Era...and not for any of these silly reasons you see flooding the internet right now...outside of the keeping to yourself and minding your business; not becoming emotionally invested in the things that are happening outside of you.  Now that's a sentiment I can get behind in Any era!  I just came to the realization that there are no hard edges in Peace.  It's calm, tranquil, and smooth; silky to the touch...That's exactly  the feeling I'm going for... I have moments of pure bliss throughout the day, so I began to observe these moments to myself, "How can I make this feeling last?  How do I make this my preferred state of being?"  As opposed to allowing anxiety to kick in, sending my over analytical mind into overdrive, I instead looked to my inner child.  At what points throughout the day was she most stimulated and engaged?  Now that answer was very simple:  "When I am learning and creating."  Yes!...

The Tea: Days of the Week Energy Correspondence

  Sooo, the hot topic of conversation between myself and my closest friends has been how out of wack we feel, and just out of sync we seem to feel with our current realities.  It sparked a renewed interest in an article I came across about 7 years ago that talked about how we were doing things all wrong on a daily basis... From the day we are born, we have a schedule, of sorts that is imprinted on us.  As opposed to learning through our own intuition when to act, and how to maneuver certain energy, we are forced into what is pre-existing; what is most conducive to the environment in which we are now being integrated...and this becomes life.  Never giving a second thought to the fact that perhaps you should be moving entirely differently.  According to foreverconscious.com  , the specific vibrational signature for each day of the week is influenced by the planet for which it's name originates.  Each day was named after the planet with the corresponding ...

The Lipstick Diaries Volume 8: Devoted to Chili (Literally!)

  You know, I find it really funny that, suddenly, during quarantine and social distancing, there is this sudden emphasis on self-care and protecting your energy.  It would stand to reason that these concepts (and the engagement thereof!) would have been most vital when we were interacting person.  Don't get me wrong, I'm all for re-connecting to Source WHENEVER necessary; I just find it hilarious when loving yourself as an individual has become a fad(sadly, like so many other things in life, it took becoming popular for people to pay attention!  Anyway, I digress!).  Regardless of the reason behind it, I'm happy to see a collective conscious shift to the importance of stillness of mind at various points throughout the course of the day.  As a matter of fact, I've adopted the concept to develop a whole new outlook on life-a state of perpetual chill... Minding your own business becomes easier the more it is practiced.  It eventually becomes second natur...
