Your gut is the foundation of everything
There was a long time in my life that I did not trust myself. I had gone through a divorce and had other ill-fated family relationships. Not to mention the opportunities that failed and jobs that were not for me. And every time something did not work out as I has thought it would I questioned myself more and more. That "gut" feeling people talked about was non-existent. 

Enter Reiki into my life. During my Reiki 1 class we were all practicing on each other and I remember thinking "am I doing this right?". I was in my head, totally over thinking every move I made. I asked questions and expressed my thoughts and the teacher told me to stop thinking and feel. So I did my best. 

It felt so weird when I shared the visions I was getting. Then when they confirmed how they resonated, it felt so cool. This was the start to healing my gut.

So often the gut is related to our physical well being because of course it's a physical part of your body. But there is truly so much more to it. Your gut is the foundation of everything. Healthy Gut, Healthy You. Mind, body & soul.

The start to my gut health journey was trusting those feelings that flutter in my belly and leaning into my intuitive connection. Getting out of my head and into my body. Allowing the energy to flow and guide me. 

Now I fully trust my gut, my intuition, my inner knowing, whatever you would like to call it and I have made it my mission to help others do the same. It is something special when I am teaching a Reiki class and one of my clients experiences a new level of trust in themselves. Learn more about Reiki classes here

Working on my intuitive connection and trust is an ongoing evolution. Next step for me is improving the physical gut so that I can enhance my gut, brain, heart connection. That's where Amare comes in. Amare, which literally means Love, prides themselves on being a mental wellness company. Improved mental wellness? Yes please!  And this is accomplished starting in the Gut. I am about 30 days in to my Amare journey as of writing this and already feeling some changes happening. If you are interested in joining me I would love to have a buddy. This is how I got started. And with this link you get $10 off!

A bit about Jill: High Vibin' & Always Evolving Spiritual Mama

 

I felt stuck and so lost.  I didn't even know who I was anymore. Divorce, co-parenting 2 very busy kids, working full time, taking care of the dog, the house, etc.  I felt exhausted and unfulfilled.  And not to mention guilty....  

Something was definitely missing but I did not know what it was and was overwhelmed just thinking about it. I was living in Groundhog Day and I didn't know how to get out.
 
One day, I finally just had enough. I can not tell you what day it was... it was probably really weeks or even months, but I finally started stepping out of my comfort zone. I tried new things and eventually found a community.  

AND, dare I say it.....  I started focusing on myself - mind, body and soul!

And this simple, but definitely not easy, practice of putting myself first (while always keeping my kiddos in mind of course) changed the entire trajectory of my life.  

After years of struggling with who I was, I found myself again through self-care, intentional living and daily spiritual practices. I even started trusting my intuition again. And that's when life got interesting. 

I said Goodbye to Groundhog day and Hello to my very own Eat Pray Love story. I started exploring my spirituality, learning Reiki, sound healing, closing of the bones, I wrote in multiple books, I garden now and even make sourdough bread from my own sourdough started. And most of all I started feeling so much more love everywhere. 

Then a diagnosis hit after my first routine colonoscopy which led to lots of anxiety, so many appointments, a surgery and ultimately quite the wake up call.

And it made me realize that as much as I was trying to convince myself that I was taking care of myself as much as I could and I was putting myself first. I was NOT!  

I truly know now that in order to not only be the best mom (friend, community member, person, etc.) I could be but also to actually live, I had to not only put myself first (not just say I was...) and LOVE myself, truly, madly, deeply!

It is a process and a practice. I am working to take back my power back, focus on loving myself first and making the next right choice for me each day. I consciously choose to raise my vibrational frequency (even if it's not easy) and continue to remind myself that taking care of myself truly is the best gift I can give to my children and the world around me. Life is a practice, we are not meant to be perfect or know all the answers. 

I read in a book once to live the question rather than try to find the right answer and I have been trying to live by that since. To be curious. Moment by moment - Healing, Exploring, Loving, Finding fulfillment in the Every day.  

I am an evolving mama on a mission to live my best life full of love and joy with my family. To continue to embrace my healing, to tune into my frequency & raise my vibe and to share love and positively impact my community.

And I hope that I can inspire you to put yourself first and embrace your evolving mama story too. 

Our energy impacts everyone and everything around us. So we raise our vibe, we truly to help the world. The ripple effect of our energetic vibration is endless.  

Let's raise our vibe together!
