JOY re:vision
NATURE CONNECTION: RIVER FLOW WORKSHOP
My intention for today (and all of JOY RE:VISION) is to keep it grounded and simple - through ways to bring awareness, shift mindset and practices for each and every day. Today, we will connect into the spirit of a river flowing to inspire effortless flow within your life.
IGNITE YOUR LIGHT: alignment workshoP
My intention for today is to connect you into your joys in life as a way to unearth your personal values that drive you through a powerful journaling practice. You’ll leave the session with your personal set of values and an understanding of how to use these to guide you into deep alignment, purpose and joy in life.
Here is the link to Brene Brown’s Dare To Lead values list that I mention in the session.
And for you to takeaway from the session once you have created your values… Here is the actions to take forwards to come into alignment with your values everyday:
1.Write down your values somewhere that you can come to them daily.
Use your values as a filter for all decisions that impact you and your energy. Notice when you are making a decision that is out of alignment with one of your values - you might feel it in your heart or stomach (see gut check exercise below to support this).
When making a big decision or evaluating big areas in your current reality (e.g. work, home life, free time): Write down each of your values and then put a tick or cross next to see it if it delivers on that value.
2. Intuition exercise - Gut check
Get quiet and still and connected to your breath and body.
Ask a question with a binary answer (a yes / no or with two options). For example, with your values you could ask - is this new opportunity in alignment to my value of [insert that value].
Look for a lift in energy that instinctively feels like a yes, enthusiasm or excitement. Don’t be distracted by the mind’s perspectives on the question - only listen to your body.
If you don’t feel any uplift or ‘yes’ sensations - then it could be no, not now or maybe. In this case then you can take the answer as a no.
NOVEMBER oracle card pull & JOURNAL PROMPTS
Oracle cards are powerful tools to hone our intuition. By reflecting upon the messages that come through for each of us from the card. Therefore in my reading, I give a bit of brief summary on what the card means and then it’s over to you to look inwards, ask questions and see what is coming up. Tune into that authentic voice and trust your instinct on what is coming up.
If you have an oracle deck, or want to get one, then this Well + Good article is a great reference for how to get started with this intuitive practice.
Star Mother:
This card tells us that we are held, loved and cherished and reminds us to allow ourselves to be held. We have a powerful capacity to love and hold others. The reminder here is that we must fill up our cup to be able to shine our love out into the world.
Journal prompts for this card:
How can you nourish yourself?
What in your soul care (self care) toolkit supports you in reconnecting and giving yourself some love?
Priestess:
The Priestess is a teacher, who is dedicated to her life of deep purpose in service of this planet. She has the courage to step out of her comfort zone and blaze a trail where others have not yet walked. Her mission is founded on her values and life purpose, walking a path that is in true alignment and deeply fulfilling.
Journal prompt for this card:
How are you being called to step up and lead?
What is your leadership vision for 2023 - what will bring you deep purpose, fulfilment and meaning?
If you feel that this card is calling to you, then our next JOY RE:VISION workshop has a powerful exercise for your first steps on this path as we will be unlocking our individual value sets through that which brings us joy.
These cards are from Rebecca Campbell’s ‘Work Your Light’ deck.
