Goodbye 2013

Laying after waking from my pre-party snooze (as you do on new years eve) I mentally began to write a little blog.

Before the nails get painted,  the hair gets curled,  the high heels go on and the Pat Butcher party earrings come out,  I sat reflecting.  This is something I rarely share on this blog.

My last blog of 2013 - on this day,  my birthday. ~~~Happy birthday to me~~~

How do you feel as we say goodbye to this year?

For me,  (have a think; if it's the same for you) I could never quite understand people being happy to see off a year.  Didn't make much sense to me.  Another day tomorrow and all that.  Yet,  2013 has had its fair share of challenges for me this year in most departments and I, too have fallen into that trap of saying,

"I'll be glad to wave goodbye to 2013!"  Including the all important exclamation mark....

So how do we interpret this feeling?  Yes,  tomorrow is the 1st January and it's not really a whole lot different to today.  Yet it makes us all feel brand new.  Just like the Stylistics sang back in the 1970's.

We are able to say,  "let's draw a line under everything that has happened and start afresh."
What will you be drawing a line under?
Writing off and putting down to experience?
Which lessons have you learnt this year that you will take onwards into life with you?

Or...

Is it all just a bunch of whatsits and you prefer to live day by day,  taking what 2013 and 2014 throws at you?  Tonight is just for partying and let's see what tomorrow brings without too much analysing?  

Whichever person you are,  I wish you a wonderful New Years Eve and a brilliant 2014 full of wishes coming true.  For me,  after the year that 2013 has been,  I am hoping for the simple things in life for 2014 such as:

Freedom
Safety
Family time
Health

The list goes on to much about career and work (far too ambitious, always) but most of all,  I'd love to be happy in 2014 which is going to be the reason I shed a little tear during Auld Lang Syne at midnight - moving on into the New Year with excitement, joy and passion.  

The success this blog is enjoying is amazing! I'm so thankful to all of you for your support and if I've written one thing that's made a difference to one person among this website then I'm happy!

Biggest wonderful wishes to you all and warm snuggly hugs

Happy New Year!!!

When blogging can get you down.........

This one is for the fellow bloggers out there.

I've been reading lots of folks blogs,  I love so many of them.  I'm a bit nosey like that.  Honestly, I feel so many of them are totally valid in some of the points they are making and in my opinion,  blogging is a great invention that can only add to the substance of the world.

Now,  we are all able to offer a little piece of us via the www and as I'm a believer that we all have unique gifts,  we can all give something back.

So why would blogging get you down?

I get asked time and again from my readers - "Why don't people buy my products?"

"Why don't I get more views?"
"Why don't people comment on my blog?"
"Why don't folks answer my questions?"
"Why can't I get any sponsorship for my blog?"

Great questions!

So what is the answer?  It takes time,  it takes relationship building,  it takes a whole lot of effort,  sweat and toil.  The illusion with blogging is that you can create something pretty instant.  It goes out to the world and we expect to sit back and get those comments,  shares,  likes,  clicks right away.  Sadly,  this seldom happens unless you strike gold.

Hang on in there.  We all have a uniqueness about us and this is something we feel we have to share through blogging and so the best thing to do is to keep on at it! Personally,  when I visit a blog I always like to leave a comment (same with Youtube,  a thumbs up or a comment is fab) and that way the hard working blogger knows they are interesting their readers.

Someone who I never even connected before posted this on google+ this morning and I felt I must share it with my readers.  I hope it strikes a chord with you.

3 top tips to feel less sluggish (right now!)

Ok! Ok!

So I know we still have lots of leftovers.

I know we still have N Y Eve to drink ourselves into a stupor and eat lots of sweet things.... Yes, go ahead and enjoy it.

Let's be serious though.  Who wants to keep the extra weight on that you can feel sitting heavy in your stomach right now?  Honestly?

Feel it,  it's heavy, sluggish,  you doubtless have dark circles under your eyes from the toxins racing around in your blood stream.  Is this how you feel?  If you want to instantly feel better I would suggest the good trick which we all already know which is

1. Drink plenty of straight up water.

Often,  private clients ask me if they can add some squash to it.  Ideally not,  but if you have to then do.  If it means you actually drink the water then do it.  You will feel better,  more awake and also it gives your insides a good sort out,  letting the digestive system 'do its thing'

My second tip will vary for you depending where you are in the world.  I'm in the UK so it's chilly here....my tip number 2

2. Go for a good walk in the cold.

You will feel fresh and get the blood pumping,  carrying the toxins away from your system.  Fantastic!

Ok so the easiest and the last tip that you are totally likely to be able to agree to is:

3. Get an early night 

Sleeping for 7-8 hours is said to be fantastic for so many things inside us.  We can actually help to repair some of the damage that cortisone (the stress hormone) does.  Cortisone actually helps you to hold onto fat which is totally not good for the middle organs.  Sleep can, in fact, help you lose weight.

Did you take photos this Christmas time?

Happy Boxing day everyone!

So who amongst you are budding photographers?  Did you take lots of photos yesterday?  The traditional ones of the family at dinner,  opening presents,  presents under the lovely decorated tree?

I'd love to see them if you'd like to share.

Shamefully,  I didn't pick up my camera once.  I can't quite believe it really.  Although I did take a couple of personal videos snapshotted through the day.  My lovely twins are at the age where they simply don't want to be broadcast all over the internet which is fair enough  (must write a post on what not to do to your teenagers!) but they will allow me - with a promise attached- to take video for personal use to look over when I'm sat in my rocking chair.  

I never break  a promise and they know that.  

So,  over to you.  How was your Christmas?  What did you enjoy about it?

For me this year,  the best thing was us all being together.  Last year for one reason or another we were all spread over various parts of the country and it was simply not like Christmas.  Literally brought an amazing meaning to  "All I want for Christmas is you".

With my family together,

Electricity (lots of locals lost power in the storms)

Food 

Warmth

Presents

Family together (already mentioned!)

I was a very happy lady.

One problem was my intestinal issues,  they struggled.  Then again,  most people likely struggled too! Makes me even more determined to help people in the new year with the diet issues.   I must get back to working online more to get organised.  It's been so difficult the past 2 weeks with the day job,  family commitments and all but it's all a work in progress and I'm so happy to see that my stats have still been climbing and climbing and unless you tell me you are reading I won't know who you are but I want to say a massive Thank you for your continued support.  You have no idea how much it means to me and it keeps me here,  spreading the Lusher Life word to help as many people as possible understand that you can have an amazing life.

Happy Christmas everyone.

Law of attraction in an easy to read book. Free sample enclosed.

How you all doing folks?? All good?

A lovely person over at Kindle pointed out to me that my ebook can't be seen so well on amazon.  What this means is if you click to see a bit,  you can't…..instead,  I thought I would share some here instead.

This way,  if you decided you like the look of my writing and decided you might want to go ahead and download it for 77p then maybe you might think it's worth the investment!

So here goes,  this is a little piece of the book.  You can buy it here if you want to see more and find out how to change your thinking habits to go ahead and change your life…

If Law of Attraction (or LOA as it’s called) is something you have heard of but don’t yet fully understand,  well,  you are certainly in the right place.

Even some of the Guru’s who teach Law of Attraction can still keep on learning more and more every day about how to apply the Law of Attraction into their lives.

Ok, in a nutshell,  what do you want?

If life had a magic wand,  waved it in your direction and said “Your wish is my command!”,  what exactly would you wish for?

Think about it just carefree right now,  don’t think too much into that answer……kind of go with your gut feeling.  See what you come up with.

Let’s ask it again: “What do you want?”

Think for a second and even write yourself a little list if you like.  If there were NO barriers in life and you could really honestly have whatever your heart desires in life,  what would you write on that list?

Don’t be surprised to know that some people don’t actually know what they want.  Yet we have other ways of tapping into the resources to show that you actually do know what you want,  just maybe not consciously.

Already, after just a few seconds here you will begin to build a picture of what seems like a beautiful fantasy.  In actual fact you will understand in a few more minutes that this fantasy could actually begin to become a reality.

The LAW of Attraction:

A definition of a law: Well, when you look this up in Wikipedia it mentions lots of things about governments,  legislation,  legal procedures and such.

I’m not quite so keen on that definition! I prefer talking about the universal laws…. Now this is my personal definition and sometimes I’ve been known to look at the fluffy side of life which is actually how I really like it!           

Universal law is something that must always be, no matter what. 

Most people know about the law of gravity so lets talk about that.  I often use this example.  Fill in the blank………

“What goes up,  must …….    …….. “

Did you get it?

Yes,  what goes up must come down when we apply the law of gravity.  Nothing except removing the gravity will affect that. 

Do we accept this as human beings?  Absolutely we do!  Now,  imagine for a minute that you took a coin and tossed it into the air and didn’t know if it was going to come back down to land but in fact keep on going up and up and up and up and away until you never saw it again.  You would think twice about throwing it up there wouldn’t you? 

Of course we all would.  That’s just human nature. 

Yet……..everytime,  without question,  we absolutely know it is going to come back down.  So we throw it up there,  trusting this knowledge.

When you know that you can also trust the law of attraction in the same way,  you will start to use it exactly the same.  You will trust it,  without question and you will leave it to work on its own without keep asking HOW?

Switching on a light bulb

Sending a fax

Breathing oxygen

All things that we could question: “How does that really work?”  Some things seem impossible to us but still we know it will work.

By the end of this lesson today I hope that you will begin to get an insight into how you can change your life by just trusting the Law of Attraction.  It’s happening all over the world and you honestly need to get onboard and make your dream life happen.

It’s all possible.  Honestly it is!

What was it you were dreaming of having in your life again?
