FYI: Meditation is NOT about “emptying” your mind or “being GOOD at it”!!
.
Some of the BIGGEST total BS things I hear people say about mindfulness are:
.
❌It’s about clearing your mind, being super still, controlling your thoughts, being super calm, or “being good at it” in any shape or form.♀️❌
.
SO MANY PEOPLE say to me that they “have tried meditation, and they know they should do it more”, but they “tried it a few times and they were bad at it”.
.
Or they do it a bit but they can’t really stick to it cause “it’s not really very me”, or “I’m just not the kind of person who can still my mind”.
.
“I do it wrong,” they say. “I can’t stop my mind from going round a million miles an hour, I’m just crap at it, I give up. It’s not for me.”
.
LET ME SAY IT AGAIN FOR THE LOVELY PEOPLE IN THE BACK: “Not doing meditation ‘right’ IS THE PRACTICE.”
.
If you think you’re doing it wrong cause you keep getting distracted and you “can’t do it” - CONGRATS, you’re doing it RIGHT.✅
.
Yay! I know it can be frustrating AF on the days when your brain is a mess, but that still counts.
.
And isn’t that SO EFFING FREEING?!! Unlike sooo many things we try to do in life, with meditation - every time you show up, you’re doing it.
.
Every time you try, you’re winning.
.
Every time you get distracted, come back to focus, you’re training your attention.
.
And THAT is what trains your brain, and gets you all the amazing juicy benefits such as focus, direction, clarity, confidence & acceptance.
.
THAT IS THE PRACTICE. Trying, f*cking up, trying again.
.
Meditation is NOT about emptying your mind, being perfectly calm and still, and being a total zen-like master of perfection, the”kind of person who meditates”.
.
It’s the ACTUAL opposite! Let’s put it this way, if I was naturally calm and positive, I wouldn’t need meditation. Duh.
.
So if your mind goes a million miles an hour and you think you’re bad at it and you keep falling off the wagon and getting distracted - congrats. You win.
.
And THEN That’s when the magic happens.
.
Ps. Tomorrow I’ll be back here sharing exactly how you you can work with me to make this happen for you. Stay tuned

We're so conditioned to do the things we don't like as a child.⠀
⠀
Therefore we end up in jobs we don't enjoy and relationships we tolerate.
Even when building your business.⠀
⠀
Are you doing the things that only lights you up?⠀
⠀
To be honest, when I started my business I was really tight on cash and I didn't have all the money in the world to hire help.⠀
⠀
As much as I didn't enjoying all the tech stuff but the vision of working for myself thrills me.
Following your bliss doesn't mean life will be smooth sailing.
It means having a vision that makes you leap out of bed and you'll do whatever it takes to make this vision a reality.⠀
⠀
Learning something new is always uncomfortable but working towards a vision will make it bearable and enjoyable.⠀
⠀
If working at a job you hate, getting up to get ready will be a drag.
But if you're doing something you love, you'll jump out of bed each day and be willing to move through traffic to get to work.⠀
⠀
♀️See the difference?⠀
⠀
Only you know what your bliss is and you need time to figure it out.
Once you do, you'll fall in love with all areas of you life.⠀

It all comes full circle when you spend an hour at a local coffee shop with a previous coworker you used to work with. Explaining time and financial freedom to moms who STILL WANT TO WORK but on their own terms with more flexibility and no income cap never gets old.

We all have the same hours as Beyoncé. How will you spend yours?

DO YOU FEEL THE FEAR? DO IT ANY WAY
☕ Whatever the fear "Feel the fear and do it anyway". The new year and new month is here and with it new challenges for us to deal with. I know for me when I started my social media and consultancy business rachaelacademy.com it was daunting and challenging but a challenge I knew I had to take. ☕ What is the fear for you?
Making decisions?
Public speaking?
Changing jobs?
Starting a new Business?
Asserting yourself?
Intimacy?
Losing a loved one? .
Maybe you could add to the list. Fear seems to be the major factor in stopping us from doing what we love or doing what we know to do for the better of ourselves. We fear change, we fear staying stuck, we fear success and we fear failure. .
Whatever the fear "Feel the fear and do it anyway". .
I learnt that fear in most cases, people and situations has nothing to do with our psychological mind but in most cases is about us
re-educating our minds to accept fear as a simple fact of life rather than a barrier to success. So with that in mind step into today, this week, month and year knowing you can achieve whatever you have set out to accomplish, SUCCESS IS YOUR DESTINATION! .

Most of us start our day off with a good ol’ cup of joe! ☕️ But if you’re a busy #girlboss like me who needs a little more of a boost without the added calories from cream and sugar, @gogirlenergy is a rad alternative to try!
.
it contains 1.5 x the amount of caffeine that’s in one cup of coffee
it’s sugar free and less than 5 calories!!
it doesn’t give me the nervous jitters which could make my hands shaky (not good for executing precise winged eyeliner)
it doesn’t leave me with coffee breath (I’m up in my clients face for almost an hour and that’s just mean)
if I’m rushing out the door to a client, I just grab one from the fridge and throw it in my set bag; I don’t need to wait for coffee to brew or carry a hot splashing thing to the car
.
Coffee is cool, but it’s not the only way to wake yourself up! Follow the @gogirlenergy IG for more info on what makes the drink (dare I say ) better than coffee! ♀️✨
.
Can you relate? When we’re younger, before we’re taught to believe that things are impossible. We're aware of our potential. We think of things as impossible only because we're underestimating our cognitive or physical abilities. We create impossibilities. ♀️

Real talk. I would NEVER hashtag this photo with #fruit. (Yes, I know I just did, but it’s to illustrate a point, ok?) “Why wouldn’t you hashtag #fruit?”, you may ask (probably suspiciously) because this is obviously a photo of fruit(!) Well, for one, the #fruit hashtag has over 21 million photos catalogued under it. And that is way too many. My photo will be buried 10 or more posts down in seconds - and it is very unlikely that someone will find my post and notice it in an ocean of 21 million other posts like it. It will essentially be...lost in the sauce. Instagram sauce. Mmm, tasty.
Another reason I wouldn’t add #fruit to this photo? You should not be hashtagging about the subject of your photos - you should be hashtagging about your Instagram account as a whole. You want to focus on your niche, and the general theme of your page. You also want to keep in mind a hypothetical profile of who you’d like to attract through these hashtags - so incorporating hashtags your ideal customer/client/follower may be using or searching can be useful, too.
More (free) info: a few days ago, I added some tips on hashtags to my Insta story. I was super interested to find out (via poll) that 90% of you did not yet know that particular information! If you didn’t see my story and wanna know what the heck I’m talking about, just check out my highlight titled “ig tips”. There’s lots of other fun stuff under that highlight, too.

Un antojito no tiene porque ser comida chatarra.☝ Al recordar este desayuno, se me calienta la pancita. Son huevos poché sobre tomate, lechuga, espárragos y un muffin inglés bañados con salsa holandesa y prosciutto. Y, para terminar, tater tots (me ayudan con la traducción si se la pueden ) recién horneados. ❤️ ¿Cómo la ven? Nutritivo y delicioso, pero con toque de premio por una semana larga. Les platico de comida, no solo porque me encanta comer (para que les voy a mentir ), si no también porque a mi me resultó muy difícil aprender a comer sano y a dejar malas costumbres. Como parte de una metodología integral, comparto con ustedes platillos deliciosos para que recuerden que comer sano no es tan difícil como solemos pensar. // Por si se les antoja: Andián
