As children, we were infamous for being one hundred percent ourselves, having minimal struggle in feeling and expressing our emotions, even demanding at times the things we wanted to have in our life experience. We KNEW what we wanted, and expressed this fully through our opinions and our creativity.
Growing up, some of us may have heard from those we trusted, that the world doesn’t actually revolve around us and that the things we held dear, didn’t matter much to those outside our immediate environment. This is the time when we also accepted the responsibility of huge expectations presented by our loved ones.
Consequently, in order to meet approval and win love and support of those at home, school and later on the workplace, we would now endeavor to meet these, most often – impossible expectations.
In our journey from childhood to adulthood, we have devoted so much time and energy trying to be the person that others want us to be, that we have lost touch with who we really are. This leaves most searching in vain to find things outside of us to help us to; identify who we are, express ourselves, or experience true happiness and fulfillment
One of our most important life lessons is that NOTHING is more significant in life than loving, honoring and expressing our true selves to the world.
Your confidence, courage and success will begin to soar when you’re truly living an authentic life with YOU as your best friend. When this occurs, you will effortlessly magnetize people, places and things that you fully enjoy and who also enjoy YOU!
It is a great and tremendous feeling we all deserve!
Growing up to Passionately Love and Appreciate You (P.L.A.Y.), begins with simply accepting yourself, as you are and finding yourself more frequently filled with wonder, of what the next life adventure will be on this PLAYGround of Life.
The joy and freedom experienced when we play – that childlike feeling of free expression, will inevitably be rekindled in the midst of play, fun and laughter.
This playing field, without question, offers us the opportunity to release endorphins that always assist us to effortlessly tap into those feelings of freedom and authenticity we had as children.
These feelings will serve as our anchor, returning us to a healthy state of mind, body and spirit.
Anchoring in this manner, permits us to connect our new-found feelings with our accumulated years of wisdom, to powerfully create and express a new blueprint for our lives.
Are you ready to Passionately Love and Appreciate YOU (P.L.A.Y.) today?

Yes we do, Julie! I make it a point to find something to laugh at or to do something I love to do each day. It is a must! Dancing to good music is my regular go to these days.
