Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Why Wake Up Early?

morning-1092771_960_720

As I sit to write this, I admit I snoozed the alarm 3 times this morning!!! Why? Well, I self pleasured (blush), pet my cat, talked with God, opened my body to receive the energy of abundance and magic from the Universe… and honestly I feel quite fabulous, vibrant and sexy as I start my day!

You see, if I don’t do my Morning Ritual, I’m a hamster on the wheel of keeping up with the Jones’. No matter how much I accomplish, I always feel behind, comparing myself to others, often being short with people or being cranky with my precious son.

Implementing my Morning Ritual started when my son was three. He’d wake me at some ungodly hour and I wasn’t the playful, present happy mom I wanted to be. So I told him one night, mommy was having an adventure tomorrow morning. He could help me by not waking me up until Seven Zero Zero. What adventure, Mommy? I am looking for patience and kindness, I told him.

It took three days: 5:17am, hand in the small of his back, no eye contact, walking him back into his room SCREAMING, saying with a smile ‘Seven Zero Zero’ and closing his door. The next day: 6:12am, quieter whimpers, back to his room. On day three he trumpeted in all his glory, ‘It’s Seven Zero Zero Mommy!’ I scooped him up, ‘You are my hero! I have found patience and kindness because of YOU! Would you like me to share it with you?’ That morning we had a blast, got to pre school on time, and I wasn’t exhausted by noon! I felt like human again.

Morning Rituals have big ROI’s. Just 2-3 snooze buttons allow you to take the time to appreciate life, enjoy pleasure, connect with God, and receive insights. I’m not perfect, yet I don’t reacting to life as much anymore. I’m now responding with gratitude, creativity and confidence. I am empowered to create a world that brings me joy. I am confident to contribute my gifts to the planet. I feel sexy just as I am stretch marks and all.

I’ve even written in red lip liner on my bathroom mirror, Life, have your way with me! I have a sassy attitude that comes from loving me enough to put on my oxygen mask first, for as we all know, when mama’s happy, everybody’s happy!

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - My boyfriend’s messaging strange women

Question: Do you have any idea why a man would start instant messaging strange woman after being in a five year relationship. Said he was “stupid” and wasn’t physical with anybody. I guess you can say I have trust issues. Answers: Ouch! I am so sorry. Do I have any idea why? Here is what I have learned, first off I am really sorry because that really hurts. If you have trust issues especially, that would hurt and sting even more. So first something about trust and then something about men. Trust: When we trust, it’s not that we trust someone to be perfect. That sets us up for failure because no one is perfect and you can’t control anybody. That is insanity if we try to control another and put all of our power – making sure they be a certain way to so that we are safe. Instead, find that safety and trust inside you. That safety being that capacity to discern and know that come what may, you’ve got your own back – you can take care of yourself. It takes a lot of pressure off of other...

How to Set Priorities Using the ABCDE Method - Brian Tracy

The more thought you invest into setting priorities before you begin a task, the faster you will get the important things done. The more important and valuable the task is to you, the more motivated you are to overcome procrastination and launch yourself into the job.

Morgana - Your Wealth is in Your Weirdness

When I first became a life coach I was really concerned about being taken seriously, sounding professional, and not looking like a freak. Not much has changed: I still care about all that stuff. But I discovered over time that the more professional and non-freaky I try to sound, the more INVISIBLE I become. The minute I start to talk like a professional coach and go into one of those elevator speeches I spent so much money to learn (you know exactly what I’m talking about, don’t you?)… I can see the other person’s EYES GLAZE OVER before they start scanning the room for someone more interesting. I can’t begin to tell you how annoying that is. Then one day, years ago, I stood up at a large networking meeting of high powered female entrepreneurs, pulled out a magic wand and called myself a “witchy” coach, and said something about how “goddesses can be old or young, thin or fat, can do what they want, charge what they want (and Aphrodite sleeps with whomever she wants, and no one dares...
