Family Christmas Advent Calendar - Day 16

"Gift of time and love are surely the basic ingredients of a truly Merry Christmas"

My family and I made our way to my cousins for cousins Christmas tea party. Every year all of the women in my family get together during the holiday to catch up and wish one and other a Merry Christmas. 



When we arrived at my cousins I felt like I was in a sea of pink, doilies and flowers. It look so beautiful and inviting. I was most excited about spending time with my family. The second thing I was looking forward to was drink as much tea as my body can handle. The day went very well, filled with laughs, food and good conversation. My cousins daughter was the belle of the party, she was so adorable. At one point she started coping everything I was doing. Honesty the cuties little girl I’ve ever seen. 

For the tea party everyone had to bring food to eat. I decided to bring two desserts, a match green tea cookies and overnight oats covered with berries. 

I was so glad to see at the end of the party everything I brought was gone. I was a little nervous that I would be left with all the overnight oats, because whenever I talk about oatmeal a lot of people says that they don’t like oat meal. But it’s really healthy for you one of the best food you can put into your body. :)

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...

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 ...

21x21 Manifestation Challenge

A couple of week ago I saw a manifestation challenge that I’ve never hear or seen before. It’s called the 5x55 manifestation challenge. When I first found the video on YouTube I was in the Dominican Republic, so I decided when I got back home I would start it.  Basically the 5x55 Manifestation Challenge goes something like this. You decide on something you want to manifest. It could be anything from wanting a new car to getting someone to call. Honestly it could be anything your wonderful heart desires. So once you know what you want to manifest, you put it in a sentence “I’m so happy and grateful to be driving my brand new car” for example. Once you have you sentence you need to write it out 55 times for 5 days. It’s that simple. To be honest my hand hurt but by letting go of that pain, trusting and believing that what your writing will come. Makes all the pain worth it and fade away.   Since you get the idea. I want to share a similar challenge I will be doing for t...
