MANIFESTING Made SIMPLE Using the PHASES OF THE MOON | 8 Phases to Manifest

Last Saturday was a full moon, and I couldn’t sleep! Does anyone else experience this?

For as long as I can remember, there would always be these one or two nights every month where’d I’d struggle to sleep and be super restless. I’ve since learned that this happens, without fail, on a full moon! It could be a coincidence, and now that I follow the moon phases and actually pay attention to when the full moon is, maybe it’s simply because I expect to be restless and unable to sleep now? Like it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy, maybe?

But the number of times I’ve had a bad night’s sleep without knowing it was a full moon, only to find out later on that it was… I think I’m safe to say, from my experience at least, that the full moon definitely affects me.

The more I learn about the phases of the moon, and the different energies and meanings attributed to each phase, the more convinced I am that the moon influences my manifestations, intentions, and emotions.

Whatever you believe, learning the phases of the moon is fascinating. Learning how to utilize the energies of the moon in order to help manifest — that is just straight-up magical!

Know Your Why to Achieve your 2021 Goals | 'Manifesting in the Real World' Episode Seven

You can set all the New Years’ Resolutions, you can have all the best intentions to accomplish your goals, but without getting specific on WHY you want to achieve them, not only will you struggle to enjoy the process, you’ll also hinder your success.

Those new years’ resolutions will be forgotten by February unless you have the motivation that can last well into the rest of the year and beyond… The kind of motivation that comes from having a solid reason why you want to do something.

Your reason for doing something is what will drive you to succeed.

Knowing your why is crucial to achieving your goals and manifesting anything you want.

This is a huge topic, but an interesting one, so get yourself a cuppa, and let’s get into it!

Learning Tarot - How to Draw a Daily Tarot Card

A few years ago, while working in a bookshop, I started looking into Tarot cards. I brought a deck and a guidebook, and I loved it - but I was a tad overwhelmed by it too. I eventually placed it on the shelf, only glimpsing at it occasionally. But over the last six months or so, I’ve been practicing Tarot again. I’ve gotten into a habit of drawing a single card for myself, every morning. Usually I just ask for a little guidance for the day. What should I be aware of today? What insight can this card give me to make the most of my day?

My Cacao Ceremony - Why & How I Start My Day with Chocolate

I’m not much of a morning person. I really love sleep, and my warm, cozy bed. But I also love chocolate. So it’s no surprise that what wakes me up and drags me out of bed at 6am is a steaming mug of hot cacao. Rich, fragrant, cacao, with just a touch of cinnamon and cardamom. If my morning routine included just that and nothing else, I’d be happy. But I don’t just guzzle down the cacao while staring at my phone, chow down some brekky, and power up the laptop. Every morning, I start my day with what’s called a cacao ceremony. It may sound a little silly. but it’s actually so awesome!
