It's taught me how to be with myself. 
It's taught me how to BE.

In the stillness it seems like there is nothing.

But, I've discovered, that in the stillness there is everything.

.I always have time. Time comes from and through me, I always create time.

.The slower I move through life, the more time I have.

.The vibration and frequency of space has a direct impact on my thoughts, emotions and who I perceive myself to be. 

Also, I've never had the balls to paint a  room this dark 🤣 I just love it ❤️

Aaaand I learnt how to put wall paper up, it naturally forces you to take your time and demands patience 😅

The way I see others has changed

It's like I have completely different eyes.

I cannot believe (but can) how I was prepared to actually poison myself to try and change the way I feel about myself on the inside. 

Same old story, it didn't work 🤣

On the physioloical impact of Botox, I  learnt a lot from @nevertox
    I'm noticing how much our environments are connect I'm noticing how much our environments are connected to our identity... who you perceive yourself to be. 

I've always been too busy with a massive, constant to-do list and paid little attention to the space around me. 

I've noticed that my environment is a mirror of who I am, how I see myself and what my values really are. 

Slowing down enough to really notice how my environment impacts how I feel on a deeper level has been a beautiful experience. 

When I now sit in my living room sanctuary, it makes me feel abundant, connected, safe, peaceful, luxurious.... the room and I are resonating at the same frequency now, such a joy to be in there 🏡❤️
    Fear of rejection has been a theme for me. The p Fear of rejection has been a theme for me. 

The process of bringing the truth to the surface has been fascinating. 

Somewhere along the way, I lost contact with the truth of who I really am. 

I think we all do at some point along the way. We forget we're brilliant just for breathing, being, alive.

Hiding was my safety mechanism. 

My dad used to say "children should be seen and not heard". 

I think subconsciously that stuck inside me,

Staying small
Not "making a fuss"
Staying quiet 
Not bothering anyone

I'm finding that when I feel rejected in some way, its an opportunity to enquire "why does that hurt me?".

When I pause to think about this question, it gives me space to tap in to the truth.

100% of the time, its the ego identity that feels the rejection. NOT the real me. 

From that place, I can choose to respond rather than react from an old wound. 

❤️

I almost gave up because the silence felt so uncomfortable.

And then I met bliss. Peace so powerful it made my eyes stream without feeling like I'm crying. Such an incredible feeling, I don't have access to the right language to explain it ✨️🙏🏽
    Slow down to speed up ✨️ Nothing is urgent. We c Slow down to speed up ✨️

Nothing is urgent.

We can create our own time
Our own rhythm
Our own pace

The desire to get to the end of the to-do list has been impossible for me. God knows I've tried. 

The struggle
The striving for perfection
The impatient
The people pleasing
The urgency

I've realised that I AM time, time comes through and from ME. I set the pace, no-one else.

I'm practicing taking my time, its changing everything. 

The slower I move through life, the more time I have. It's blowing my mind how this is working 🤷🏽‍♀️🤯🙏🏽
    There's no magic pill! I was taking 20+ differen There's no magic pill! 

I was taking 20+ different Supplements in an attempt to feel well and energised, but neglecting the basics...

QualitySleep
Quality Nutrition
Sunlight
Not enough water
Rest
Fun

I expected to feel superhuman because I was taking so many wellness Supplements that are supposed to make you feel amazing. 

 But I STILL felt exhausted. 

The only thing that changed was the colour of my pee 🤣

We can't override foundational health. 

The principles of our precious body will never change. 

It will always need its foundations to thrive and be in balance. 

The 6 Doctors:

Oxygen
Water

Sunlight
Movement
Rest

    Self-devotion... It's a way of being, something w Self-devotion...

It's a way of being, something we live, not do.

How we talk to ourselves 
How we communicate with others
The language we use
The thoughts we think about ourselves

It didn't matter what I did on the outside...nails, hair, massage. I didn't truly FEEL love towards myself. 

The devotion to self, to find out about this thing we call "me". Who am I? 

Self devotion to me, means knowing what the Self is in order to know how to love it. 

How can we truly love what we don't fully understand? 

To self-realise.

To ponder this thing called "I", has allowed me to touch the magic of being alive.

We're here on purpose, for a purpose.

To love, to create, to have fun, to live in the magic.

For you, me and all of us.
    The greatest victory has been slowing down. Slow The greatest victory has been slowing down. 

Slowing down enough to notice

Slowing down enough to feel feelings

Slowing down enough to recognise harm to myself.

Slowing down enough to notice when my behaviour is harming others.

Slowing down enough to hear  the quiet voice that's always whispering to me "Slow down Sam".

Experiencing addiction has been my greatest gift. I'm not sure where I would be now without it 🙏🏽
    Asking yourself, "what can I do for you today?", t Asking yourself, "what can I do for you today?", then listening for the answer, has been so transformative. 

Connecting to the real you
Developing awareness
Strengthening intuition
Trust in yourself

I feel like the intention and energy behind everything we do matters. 

As soon as I started developing a real connection with myself, self-sabotaging behaviours just fell away. 

Binge eating stopped
Using exercise as punishment stopped
Using food as a reward stopped

I began to really want to nourish and care for myself. 

My identity and how I see my body has changed dramatically because of this new relationship. 

At 45, I feel like I'm the healthiest I've ever been in my life, body, mind, emotions and spirit 🙏🏽❤️
    The body follows the spirit. I can't even tell yo The body follows the spirit.

I can't even tell you how terrible my binge eating was in those days of competing. "Cheat meals" really damaged my relationship with food.

I was so disconnected from my body, using exercise as some kind of punishment. 

I wouldn't be satisfied unless I was bleeding and broken after every training session. 

The emotional and spiritual impact living in such a restricted way created even more separation between the real me and my precious body. 

Non trusting
Beating up
Neglecting myself emotionally 

All in the name of "health".

The experience of healing my relationship with myself was/is:

I trust my body
I exercise for love of my body, not because I hate it.

For me, health isn't just having a 6 pack, its FEELING comfortable in the body I have been given, treating it with love, adoration and deep respect. ❤️ 

I feel that the only way we can adore how we look, is acknowledgement of the divinity of who we really are....

Sacred, perfect, whole, love.
    Connection is EVERYTHING ✨️ I used to believe tha Connection is EVERYTHING ✨️

I used to believe that I was a "lone wolf" in this world...

"I don't need anyone, I can do it all on my own", which turn out to be so harmful for me, self isolating, not trusting. 

Later on I realised that these feelings were just a protective mechanism, to help me feel safe. 

I have come to love these parts of me, the previous me, but now I have released these old parts with love, acknowledgement and understanding.

My belief was that I'm on my own, so that was my reality, alone. 

I now have a new belief, that I am apart of something magical, I'm not just of the world, I'M IN IT, participating, and I make a difference just by being alive.

I love you,

    Simplicity is King. The simpler our live are, the Simplicity is King.

The simpler our live are, the happier we become.

I don't believe we need more discipline to be able to feel well, infact, the opposite has happened for me.

Massive 10 step routines have created...
Overwhelm
Distrust in my body
Pressure
Stress
Feeling of failure when I don't complete all the things.

All the things I did, in the name of "wellness". 

It didn't work for me. 

Doing the things (1 or 2!) that allow me to connect to the truth of who I am, is enough.
 
I'm enough
You're enough

We don't need all the things to feel well and balanced. 

I'm moving away from discipline and moving in to discovering the truth.

    What is this thing called "I"? I've tried to fin What is this thing called "I"? 

I've tried to find the "missing part" of me for decades, I tried so many things to fill this dis-ease.... jobs, building businesses, relationships, moving countries, radically ransforming my body..... NON OF IT WORKED.

I realised it's nothing "out there", no car, house, money, job, person, place or material thing could help me feel complete. 

The answer was with me all this time, just quietly waiting for me to notice. 

To recognise the divinity of you
The spirit of you
The real you
The truth of who you really are

Understanding the answer to "Who am I?".

Freedom is here, within all of us, patient, loving, always there. It never leaves or abandons.

    Identity shapes everything for us. The perception Identity shapes everything for us. The perception of self creates our wildest dreams manifested or living sadness, frustration and wishing.

I've realised that who we perceive ourselves to be creates the reality we live in. 

It's so interesting, take any thing that you think you can't be, do or have and just ask "why not?". 

99.9999% of the time it's subconscious bollocks that isn't even true. 

I don't believe that there's anything we can't be or create, the power within us as humans is unquantifiable. 

"Who do you perceive yourself to be?" is one the most powerful questions anyone has ever asked me. 

Wrote a piece about this in depth on my blog, I'm a writer now, so I have a blog that represents my identity, who I believe I am.

 I have beautiful things to say and share with the world, things to say and a soul that longs for me to express ✍️
    I've tried all the things to try and "feel better" I've tried all the things to try and "feel better". 

My morning routine used to take me 2hrs to complete..... 

Breathwork
Meditation
Yoga
Weight training
Visualisation 
Journalling
Mantras
Activations
Binaural beats

I feel exhausted even writing it all out! I did all of this, day in day out.

What I've realised is that non of it has worked. 

The consistent, low level feeling of 'offness', every day, was rooted in me hiding myself, fear of judgment, not allowing myself to express. That's what it was all along. 

I cannot tell you what relief I feel in my body just posting this video. I don't know where this will lead, but I know it's somewhere special. 

Thank you for seeing me x
    I’ve spent a long time hiding parts of myself. Hi I’ve spent a long time hiding parts of myself.

Hiding my voice.
Hiding my depth.
Hiding the truth about what I really feel called to share with women.

But lately, something inside me has been getting louder.

A knowing.

That women do not need more pressure, punishment or perfectionism to transform their lives.

We need to reconnect to ourselves.

To our bodies.
Our nervous systems.
Our intuition.
Our feminine strength.
Our self-worth.

Over the years, I’ve transformed my body many times, competed as a bodybuilder and strongwoman, worked in women’s skin and wellness for decades, recovered from addiction and rebuilt my life from the inside out.

And what I know now is this:

Real transformation doesn’t happen through shame, self-punishment or working harder.

It happens through self-devotion.

So this is me…
finally allowing myself to be seen more fully 🌿

I’m here to speak about women’s wellness, identity transformation, nervous system healing, spirituality, feminine strength, self-worth and becoming the woman your body, mind and soul respond to.

I’ll also be sharing more deeply through my blog — a space for honest conversations, reflections and tools to help women reconnect to themselves in a more grounded, nourishing way.

I’m really happy you’re here ✨

Love,
Sam x
