Smile without reason

Bonjour Friends, It says: "Smile Without Reason..." Next are 5 magical reasons why? 1. While it has been largely accepted for centuries that smiling is an expression of our state of happiness, in more recent times, mindful & spiritual teachings have taught us that consciously making our mouth form a smile (for no reason), transmits to our brain that we are feeling happy which will induce the release of feel-good hormones to rush with energy through our body and, what not to love about that!? 2. Smiling is contagious. No need to be a rocket scientist or a devoted spiritual practitioner to recognize that our state of being is affecting others like a "Domino effect". So: "Show up in the world with a smile and be the reason for someone else to smile." 3. Smiling relieves stress. Aside from the release of endorphins "happy hormones", your brain will send out a message to your body to slow down and relax making you feel more at ease in your own skin and life. 4. Smiling makes you more attractive in all senses of the term. A smile not only makes you more appealing physically but energetically too! 5. Whether you are familiar with "The Laws of Attraction". or not, you surely understand that 'Likes attract Likes" Therefore you will know why smiling which is the simplest expression of your divine light will always bring more reasons for you to smile. Love & Light Always, Ilanit. 786-565-2772 IC by Ilanit C life through a mindful I

Letter to my Ego self

Bonjour Friends, A Letter to my Ego self After years of having your strong ways around, as I recently decided to look even deeper within me: Who/what Am I? How is my life in alignement with my soul's purpose? How can I break free from the old paradigm in place & manifest all the things lingering in my heart? I see that it is you who has hold the fort to keep my heart whole. A fort so strong, that I never felt vulnerable again as I was once That it is you that told me, I could handle it all if I could stay focus on the big picture, remained detached and work on myself extra hard. That It was better to stay home 'safe' than taking the risk to fall, make a foul of myself and show my face outside. Dear Ego self, I want to thank you for your hard work, I know that your only wish is to keep me safe from arm. However, like a bird about to spread its wings for the first time, I must have the courage to leave the nest, fly on my own and ask you to stay aside. The world out there is scary, I'll give you that! But, as I connect to 'Source' and the Endless Love & Light within my heart, I can't imagine anything else but blessings flowing to & through and as a a channel share all the wonderful teachings, I have received with all those who wants to have a more meaningful connected life. Love & Light Always, Ilanit.

Push vs Let Go

Bonjour Friends, There is a fine line that only we can determine between: 'Push and Go the extra mile' and "Surrender and 'Let it be!" Either way, we should remind ourselves that the most important action isn't physical perse but energetic. In any situation as important as what we do is in what state of mind do we do it?! The Light Force of the Universe is constantly conspiring to shower us with the right blessings, therefore as long as we are doing our best, all we need to truly be focusing on is to keep our inner vibration up & open to receive it. Love & Light Always, Ilanit.

Shadow Self Vs True self

Bonjour Friends, While most think that 'Answers & Challenges' are found in the outside world, people on a spiritual/mindful path have learned that: Everything exist Within. When we come to realize that the world's triggers are only there to provide us with encounters to master 'The game" which can be sum up as having our divine self in control of its own shadow, we will stop blaming or acting up as our worst enemy and learn the true meaning of bliss. If life is battlefield, to win it: Stop fighting with your wounded self! With every punch, just make the conscious choice to Return to your True Self, to return to your Heart, to Return to your 'Love & Light Always.(Day after day, moment to moment to moment). Love & Light Always, Ilanit.

Treshold

Bonjour Friends, Our emotions will keep on giving all sorts of reasons to justify our 'unreasonable choices'. Reasons that 'our reason', meaning 'the voice of our True self' won't tolerate any longer eventually. Indeed, how many time can we play the same game, (even though we keep on finding ourselves back to the start) till we finally say: "Now, might be the time to cross the next door's threshold on my path!" I know it can be worrisome, scary even but... Remember: The Force that got us there is ever present with us, a fortiori on the other side. Love & Light Always, Ilanit.

Carry on

Bonjour Friends, Today, let me share with you a little funny story for the road to Bliss Town. (Read till the end because it does have a mindful message as always) This morning, as my daughter & I went to her school to meet her new teacher, with years of practice under my belt, I knew exactly what to do to be the totally prepared & zen waiting under the Floridian sun with loads of supplies. 1- I wore comfortable shoes & loose cloth 2 - (which was really the top#1), I packed everything in a carry on. Yes you heard me well! And you know what, not only was I feeling 'the coolest' (though not the only one, a few more families had the same idea), I actually was 'applauded' by many for the clever idea, which they might used too next time & which created a sweet sense of connection at that moment. And ,this is what it made me realize: In our Earthly travel, we all come/create luggage's,( they are the sum of past events from this life or previous ones that caused us pain and made us have beliefs and behaviors as a coping mechanism for it) Yet,.... if we were to recognize them for what they are: Experiences that we don't have to carry on our back or be crushed by, we could learn to walk proudly for the lessons they have taught us and the light they have allowed to reveal in our heart. Don't let your story defines you, walk straight smile and carry on, for you are a beautifully unique bright light.

Unstuck

Bonjour Friends, Why, so very often, when we feel hurt, (either because something happened or on the contrary did not), we end up stuck there for the longest time? 'The Ego voice within' which main function is to protect us from dangers/hurts tend to get loud and overbearing to make sure we will remember 'the pain' so we can be prepared for next time,( and obviously the more certain hurts keep showing up at our door, the more 'we live stuck in a defensive mode') Do you you get how sick this is? Do you see how difficult it could be to escape if we don't train our consciousness to see life from a different vintage point? Mindful living is a collection of teachings, tools & trainings to help us master 'The game of life' so we can play as our most empowered, aligned, inspired authentic self, no matter the amount of curved ball throw at us, to be fully present to the here & now. As we learn to recognize , learn and let go of 'The lessons', As we learn to forgive which doesn't mean to forget and voluntarily choose to move forward with an open heart/mind, we truly get to live! We are free to fulfill our potential and own the divine path through self actualization and walk strongly a step at a time toward enlightenment.

ICU

Bonjour Friends, Today's message came to me in the form of a conversation I was having with my 10 years old daughter which I found deeply relevant to (my) our spiritual work and felt inclined to share. As we were roaming through my phone last night, looking at pictures she stopped at this one and said: "I like this one! You look happy...I can tell when people are or aren't happy whether they smile or not!" And so could I since about her age, (which often caused the opening of a healing portal to help soothe their wounds and guide them back to their heart). In a world were apparences/ social media presence have become our business cards whether it is to sale something or not...Everyone is constantly preoccupied to put on a picture perfect no matter if it is a reflection of the truth or a lie. Personally, I don't like posing for picture, It makes me feel awkward, but I don't mind a candid shot especially taken by my kids when having some 'Good time". That being said, they're nothing wrong to try to honor the philosophy: "fake it till you make it!" or "Smile so life will smile at you back!" However, to not fall into the trap of believing our own lies, we should make sure to constantly check with ourselves, deal with our own shadows, emotions & traumas and connect to the light within, the place were our essence is naturally happy and that's the true no matter what!
