Christmas Advent Calendar

I’m existed Christmas is just around the corner. It’s the time to celebrate, watch Christmas movies, spend time with loved ones, bake cookies and my favourite part decorate. Decorating for Christmas is so much fun for me, it give me life, like a boost of Christmas spirit. To be honest I’m a little crazy about it that I plan almost a year in advance. Choosing the colour theme and deciding what new kind of cookies to make. 

But this year I’m starting a new tradition. A tradition I plan on continuing, and hopefully past down from generation to generation. I felt that since my sister and I are starting to get older. The spirit of Christmas is starting to become lost. We’re to old to believe in Santa and the magical feeling I once got during Christmas. So like I said this year I’m starting a new tradition that includes the hole family all month long. I’m calling it My family Christmas advent calendar. 

It’s pretty easy to understand and share with any family member. What I did was create a list of different Christmas activities we can do as a family together, for the 25 days of Christmas. Everyday we do something new together, to celebrate and create those holiday memories. Just like those day I remember waiting up for Santa clause, leaving out some milk and cookies. 

The way I decided to design my advent calendar started of course with my colour scheme. This year I went for a more natural mood (all colours of green, wood elements, gold, silver, browns, off white and beige). I knew I wanted little bags hanging on branches. So as I was talking to my mom about this idea (which she loved I may add) and she said she had seen little green bags. When she brought them home I was so grateful because they were perfect. 

Finally the fun part started design each bag to represent each day with its activity. They all came out so beautiful, it’s hard to chose a favourite. I’m realizing it’s getting a little long but I’m so excited to share my Christmas with you. So I’ll end it here by wishing you a magical holiday season. 


Any comments, questions or concerns leave them down below. I would love to hear from you.

Smudging Ritual

Over the weekend my family and I were invited to my cousins, for a house warming party. As I started talking to my mom about what to get her, a Smudging Kit came to mind. Sacred Smoke Bowl Blessing commonly known today as Smudging. It’s a powerful spiritual cleansing technique to purify any space or a brand new home. I had so much fun creating the Smudging Kit. I wanted to share it with you so you can make your own or for family and friend. The kit has all the essential needed smudge stick, small bowl, lighter, candle, feather bundle, and a couple pink quartz to spread the love.  I got excited and started to do some research, I want to know when saging first started, what were the benefits, how often should it be done, where can you buy it and so many more questions. I say that it all started with the Native American to bless an area using sage, flowers and other herbs to clear any unwanted negative energy. This Ceremonial Tradition helps any space feel free of negativ...

Predominant Colour Energy

Energy is everywhere and apart of everything. For this post I want to explain how colour can affect your energy balance. Different colours have an association with a specific feeling and behaviours in your life. Focusing on specific colour can indicate if you are balanced to who you truly are or want to be. This is a simple technique to use to make you you are on the right path for your personal spiritual journey to enlightenment.   If you would like to know what colour your energy is, listen to my meditation on colour energy to see what your predominant colour is. Colour can give you different feelings and emotions when you look at them. A way to control your energy is by wearing a specific colour for the emotion you want to portray. For example if you would like to feel loved and cherished, when your getting dressed you should reach for the colour....... If you want a claiming home environment surround yourself with the colour blue.   Most of us don't...

The Universal Laws

The Universal Laws This past week I really got interested in learning more about the laws of the universe. When I googled it some said there were 12 others said there were 7. These laws are happening naturally if we understand them or not. Even when we don't understand the connection to any obstacles we encounter in our daily life. By not living in the awareness of these laws. you may feel frustrated, confused and lost about your life's purpose. You may feel everything is going wrong for you, no matter what you do, how you act or how much you plan. Things keep going totally wrong. When people start to live their lives with the awareness of the laws of the universe. Begin to feel better, more productive, confident and feeling everything beginning to go their way. If you start to apply these universal laws you will notice a huge difference in the way you feel. So by practicing each of these laws there is such an advantage for personal word.  I'm sure you just want ...
