I ask today that you hold my hand as I now step into my power in this new chapter of my life.

I ask for courage as I leave behind all the fear, the self doubt and the limiting beliefs that have held me in this cage for so long.

I ask for gentleness as you walk me through the lessons, growth and healing ahead.

I ask you to remind me to trust myself, my intuition and my inner knowing always.

I pray that I never give up my authenticity or fail to speak my truth in an effort to please others. 

I ask that I am able to share this gift with any and all who need it.

I ask that I always lead with the heart, with love, kindness and compassion for all. 

I pray to remain open throughout this journey while providing a safe space for others to be seen, heard and understood. 

I pray that this gives me the opportunities to live, to work, to earn, to travel and to exist with the freedom and flexibility I have always craved. 

I pray to always see the infinite possibilities around me.

I pray to always be bold, passionate and full of light as I share this magic with the world.

I pray to live a life I am proud of.

I ask to do all of this, AND MORE with kindness, courage and joy.

And so it is.

Like many people, I did not know what I wanted to be when I was growing up, even after I left school, after university, into my 20s I was just doing things because. I was doing them because I thought they were the right thing to do, I was doing them because others had told me it was what I should do, I was doing things because it was keeping people happy and keeping them off my back from the continuous stream of “what are you doing with your life Chelsea?”

Breaking the ice is an ice breaker for activity. You will notice the shock on the body here with the volume of my breathing being very noticeable. I tried to revert early to nasal breathing.

But why bother of you're comfortable in breathing through your mouth? Well here are a few facts to mull over.

Have you noticed that when you put the kettle on you are thinking about other things?

It's such an automatic activity that you do it without thinking, leaving your mind free to wander as it will.

And usually your mind goes to your to-do list, decision making, thinking about the next thing, or even going to do the thing you can do in the two minutes it takes for the kettle to boil.

And it's because you're wired that way! The more you get done in a day, the more you can relax knowing you have done your best and been productive.
