Anne Ribley: Remarkable Souls

MONDAY MANTRA: That Which Supports Me BOLDLY Steps Forward... That Which Doesn't Gracefully Steps Down. This is absolutely one of the most powerful mantras you can use for everything!!! It is a very relevant mantra right now for the manifesting cycle we are in with the Super New Moon.  Call in the trusting flow of the universe and relax into the support that will step forward for you in unquestionable ways to let you know — BOLDLY this is for you! And those situations that aren’t working out or are shifting, thank the universe for the graceful step-down. This mantra can change your life. It is a living meditation that deepens your trust in what is yours to engage with and what is yours to release and surrender to a greater source. Incredibly beautiful…. during this winding up of a manifesting cycle. Speak it every day in all ways… That which supports me BOLDLY steps forward… that which doesn’t GRACEFULLY steps down. This one is a keeper for you. Keep it close and call on it anytime, every time and whenever yo

A picture is worth a 1000 words. It’s true. The brain processes imagery at an exceptional speed. Advertisers, marketers, and people selling results know the power punch a single image can produce.  The overweight body to toned and thin. Single and alone to an embracing love.

Wow, aren’t they amazing? And yes, the transformational results are amazing! However, the real power started in the “before” picture with the brave soul who stepped forward. _Made a new choice.  __Took the first step. __ Broke the silence.  __Began the program. __ Declined the drink.  __Went to the gym. __ Had the hard conversation.  __Made the amends. __ Formed a commitment.  _Said yes. Said no. __ Made a

“Have the audacity to be authentic.” This statement feels bold, something brave people say.  Or it’s an option we use when the time is right. It can be a permission pass we give ourselves to show up more fully, but only if conditions are right enough to take action. Make the decision. Speak up. Raise our hands, and say, “Yes, count me in!’ or “No, count me out”.  Being authentic can also sound like a really nice extra-curricular activity we do when the picture-perfect life has arrived. When we have enough time. When we have enough money. When we are pretty enough. Thin enough. Smart enough. Educated enough. Or when the conditions are right enough. The right words. The right people. Right mood. Dressed in the right outfit. In the right opportunity. When everything is just right, all the stars have aligned.  Only then do give ourselves permission to awaken our most treasured self, filled with the audacity to be authentic.  Women are designed to conform. Physiologically, our bodies are made to shape-shift and co
