Just Be Yourself!

Day 22/30 Day Blogging Challenge. 

As I practiced for my Toastmaster speech entitled, I Am a Loud Speaker!,  I paused in front of the mirror and a voice said: 
"Just speak as your authentic self.   J-U-S-T   B-E  Y-O-U-R-S-E-L-F.  U take life tooooo seriously.  Have fun! Love your eccentricities.  Love all of you including the Shadow part.  Love the Angel in you and the Demon in you.  Love the Little Girl in you and the Adult in you.  Love the EGO in you and the SELF in you.  It comes in a package & you cannot pick and choose which aspect you like and want to keep and which you dislike and wish to discard.
Avoid taking things so personally.  If a client cancels why bother wondering if it's because you did something wrong?  Or if your prices are too high?  This negative self-talk is called Instilling Doubt.  Do you believe you are good practitioner and worth what you charge? If your answer is Yes, then shut the fuck up!  Let me recommend a trick:  When that doubting voice creeps up, use Laughter Yoga to interrupt that vibration that is labeled DOUBT." 
What's Laughter Yoga?  Here is a short video demonstrating Laughter Yoga with Dr. Madan Kataria founder of Laughter Yoga.  Try it!  Have fun with it!

Get-Away this Summer in the Laurentians at Chez Mina!

Image
Chez Mina, a  45 minute drive from Mont Tremblant, is a beautiful lake front property deep in the woods of Vendee, Quebec.  Built in 1962 on the shores of Lac de la Sucrerie , it has always been a place for the Gualtieri, Piccolo and Toppetta siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and friends to share quality time together and create lasting memories. Fast forward to 2017, after several renovations and upgrades, Chez Mina has transformed into a quiet and secluded get-away and they want to share it all with you!  Come to enjoy flora and fauna on long hiking trails, swimming and boating in the majestic lake, and star gazing while relaxing on the soft sandy beach. Spectacular views of the lake and mountain region can be spotted from nearly every spot on the property.  Waking to the chirping morning songs while the pure mountain air breezes through your bedroom window is the only way to wake up everyday!
