Cutting Cords

Sometimes the emotions we are feeling belong to the person we are in a connection with and an energetic cord must be severed. 

In every relationship, people are constantly exchanging energy that can become a chord connecting two people. This energetic cord forms just below the breastbone and can remain long after a relationship has ended. This unbroken cord may leave an open channel between you and another person, through which emotions and energy can continue to flow. If you are unaware that the chord exists, it is easy to feel the other person’s emotions and mistakenly think that they are yours. Cutting the cord can help you separate yourself from old baggage, unnecessary attachments, and release you from connections that are no longer serving you. Finding and cutting unwanted cords is a simple, gentle process that is best done when you are by yourself and when you are relaxed. It is important that you are strong in your intention to release the chord between you and someone else.

To begin, breathe deeply and find your center for meditation. Visualize the chords that are connecting you to other people. Run your fingers through the cords to separate them until you find the cord you wish to sever. When you are ready, visualize or sense the chords that are connecting you to other people. Run your fingers through the cords to separate them until you find the cord you wish to sever. When you have found it, determine where the cut should be made and then visualize the cord being cleanly cut.

When you need assistance, Archangel Michael can be called upon to help you with his sword. Afterwards, if you feel that cutting the chord has left spaces in your energy field, then visualize those spaces being filled with healing sunlight.

There may be times where cutting a cord can help free a relative or loved one to reach new stages of growth. You’re not severing a relationship, but you are cutting the chords that are no longer serving you both. At other times, a cord may simply refuse to be cut because it is still serving a higher purpose. It is also important to remember that cutting a cord with someone is not a replacement for doing your emotional work with people. It can, however, be an enactment of that work upon its completion. In any case, cutting a relationship could always be viewed as a positive and nurturing act. By cutting the cords that no longer need to be there, you are setting yourself and others free.

Super-Simple, Kid-Friendly Smoothies

Smoothies are popular in our house, even with kids who claim to not like many fruits, or yogurt. 

When you are introducing your kids to smoothies, make sure the ingredients are to their liking. If they love chocolate, make a chocolate flavored smoothie with a dash of fruit. Make the idea of smoothies exciting, children love to be involved in the process. Let them make smoothies with fruits of their choice, on the condition that they will drink it. Guide them to make sure that the smoothie they make is edible. Lol. 

You are lucky if your child likes eating vegetables. Otherwise, you can disguise the tastes of vegetables with fruits or yogurt. For example, if you want to add broccoli or spinach to the smoothie, you can add a strawberry, banana, or grapefruit to give it a sweet and tangy flavor. To make smoothies fun during summer, you can make Popsicles and add them into the smoothie.  

The good news is that smoothies are extremely flexible. If your house doesn’t drink cow’s milk, you can always substitute with almond, coconut, rice or soy milk. You can use the yogurt of your choice and honey or agave are both great natural sweeteners. 

The kids can choose the flavor of the juice – orange, apple, cranberry or even coconut water. 

Here are a couple of our favorite super simple kid-friendly smoothies

Smoothies for kids are healthy and easy to make and can be had any time of the day. You can serve them during breakfast or as evening snacks. The popularity of smoothies has encouraged businesses to come up with ready-to-go smoothies in different flavors. Dr. Smoothie, Suja, Happy Planet, Happy Monkey, and Innocent Smoothie For Kids are among the most popular smoothie brands in the market today. While it is fine to pick one of these packs, homemade smoothies from fresh fruits and vegetables turn out to be the best in the long run. 

Fruity smoothies are a fun and healthy way to start your child’s day! It’s a power breakfast. The best part? They’re super-easy to create.

Sun in Taurus: When Luxury & Love Meet

Can you feel it? The Sun has moved  into sensory Taurus and it feels amazing. The Venus energy since Taurus is ruled by planet Venus, Goddess Of Love.

It’s a time to stop and smell the roses. Most of all, it’s time to take relationships to the next level.
With Sun in Taurus you’ll desire,  you’ll crave, you’ll indulge but most of all you’ll want to commit yourself in a lasting and meaningful way. Sun in Taurus is the perfect time to examine your relationship potential and see where romance is headed! 

April is the month of love! We have had a Full Moon in Libra (ruled by Venus) and a New Moon in Taurus (again, ruled by Venus). Moreover, Venus turned direct on April 15th, giving us the green light for romance, relationships, money, personal values, and beauty.

During the past six weeks, Venus asked us to have an honest look at our relationships, our possessions, our values, and check to see if they are still connected. We are now prepared to move forward in closer alignment with our true values. When Venus turned direct she was close to Chiron at 26° Pisces, opening us to the deep healing power of love.

Tri-Dosha  Aromatherapy 

Ayurveda teaches that nothing has more power to heal and transform the body than the mind. 

Our sense of smell is directly connected to our mind’s state of being, and we powerfully impact our mind through scents that we breathe. Healing #aromatherapy can be experienced while breathing therapeutic scents, as well as during massage, vaporization, and bathing. 

When we combine the experience of a meditative breath or controlled breathing, long and deep, with Aromatherapy, we enhance emotional  balance and it induces soothing feelings of #relaxation
