Weekly Inspiration :: Enlightenment

"Enlightenment is always there. Small enlightenment will bring great enlightenment. If you breathe in and are aware that you are alive—that you can touch the miracle of being alive—then that is a kind of enlightenment." 

~ Thich Nhat Hahn 

Something as simple as a deep breath can change who we are in a single moment. With all of the frustrations, tasks, and emotions involved in a single day, a deep breath can help us feel centered, focused, and alive. Whenever you start to feel overwhelmed or flustered, inhale as deep as you can and then let all of the days stress flow out of you as you exhale. This will clear your mind and allow you to feel enlightenment every day.

Weekly Inspiration :: Primping, Pink, and Miracles

"I believe in manicures. 
I believe in overdressing. 
I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. 
I believe in pink. 
I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls.
 I believe that tomorrow is another day, 
and... 
I believe in miracles."
~ Audrey Hepburn 

Nothing is more important than feeling comfortable in our own skin. Embrace your beauty and your femininity. Find an excuse to let your girly side show through every day. Taking time for yourself, be it a manicure or a week long spa trip, allows us to focus back on ourselves so that we can be the best version of ourselves that we possibly can.
This confidence will surely be noticed, and will allow you to perform
your own everyday miracles.
