#protectyourmagic
“One day when you wake up, you will find that you have become a forest. You have grown roots and found strength in them that no one thought you had. You have become stronger and more beautiful, full of life giving qualities. You have learned to take all the negativity around you and turn it into oxygen for easy breathing. A host of wild creatures live inside you and you call them stories. A variety of beautiful birds rest inside your mind and you call them memories. You have become an incredible self sustaining thing of epic proportions. And you should be so proud of yourself, of how far you have come from the seeds of who you used to be.” – Nikita Gill, You Have Become a Forest

Into this smoke I release
All energies that do not serve;
All negativity that surrounds;
And all fears that limit.
What are you new moon rituals?
What prays do you say as you cleanse your space? What are the different ways you spiritual cleanse your space?
I use sage, frankincense, myrrh, salt, Florida water, vinegar, ammonia and visualizations.

It’s my anniversary! This month marks 18 years since I started my holistic lifestyle journey. What a whirlwind! I started with the intention of wanting to heal the symptoms from my pituitary tumor, scleroderma, and polycystic ovary syndrome. I never imagined it would turn into Yes Baby I Like It Raw. I have learned quite a bit over the years. Here are a few of the ones that stand out:
1. Your body knows how to heal almost all the ailments we are confronted with. We just need to get out of its way.
2. There is no fountain of youth; approaches to healing are not universal. The variability in our DNA, lifestyle, and environment not only affect our health but should be considered when giving prescriptions or protocol. What works for one person can not be applied to everyone else. Healing methods should be customized to the individual.
3. Too much of anything can be bad for you. Balance and diversity are key.
4. Stress is at the core of so many of our physical, and mental ailments. You can eat well and be physically fit yet if you are not properly managing your stress illness is inevitable.
5. Food is your first medicine.
What things have you learned?

Document the moments you feel most in love with yourself - what you’re wearing, who you’re around, what you’re doing. Recreate and repeat.

Day 1#100DaysofSelfCare (clink link https://www.yesbabyilikeitraw.com/blogs/wellness/100-days-of-self-care-week-1-lets-get-started to sign up and to read this week’s assignments)
August 1: Spiritual Wellness
Today we will focus on our spiritual wellness.
GOALS: Write down your self-care goals based on 7 domains of wellness ( read link). PRAY: Take some time to pray. It does not have to be in a traditional way. It can involve you going out in nature or even in the shower. Ask for the things you need, and give thanks for the things you have.
MANIFEST: On this first day write a letter to yourself describing how you completed this challenge. As you write this letter describe how you feel, how you achieved your goals, and what you overcame over the course of 100 days. Place the letter in an envelope so you can read it at the end of this challenge.
Accountability Partner: Have a friend join you in this journey. Connect with other individuals in the group. When we know we are not alone we are able to navigate the twists and turns of the journey in a better way.

Now more than ever you have to protect you mind and energy.
Practice social distancing with people or things that make you feel worse in their presence.
Unplug,
Unfollow,
Protect your magic.

And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and were still. And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced. Some met their shadows. And the people began to think differently. And the people healed. And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and heartless ways, the earth began to heal. And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again, they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images, and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they had been healed. ~Kitty O'Meara’~ .
