A good vibration is a feeling you get when things are going well. Color can shift your vibration. People can also shift your vibration and so can nature. A simple, happy smile attracts a like vibration to someone else. It is very contagious and very healthy. It is a positive force, vibrating on a cool wavelength. Just like the waves and the water ripple vibrating energy, so do people. When we are happy we feel good, peaceful, free and content, vibrating on a higher plateau. It only takes 16 seconds to change your vibration, so follow these simple steps below and see how great you begin to feel!

5 things you can do to raise your vibration:

1. Put some Coral in your day. The color Coral restores your physical vitality with its grounding properties, releasing all of your stress, worry and anxiety. It helps you to see things from a different perspective and it also heals a broken heart. Visualize yourself dropping CORAL Rose petals on a road that leads you to a beautiful path of new, restored love for yourself.

2. Listen to music. Every time I listen to music it changes my state and relaxes me, making me feel happy and raising my vibration. Whether you like classical, rock, pop, jazz or folk, chose one and feel that healing musical vibration. Yesterday, I blasted Chaka Chan and had my own dance party. It was so much fun and it really shifted my vibration. I was in the best mood. Try it and see how you feel!

3. Get out of your space (and/or the mentally negative place you are in) and take a walk. Soak up nature, looking at all of the green around you. Go to a park, a beach or the mountains. Just be in nature, experiencing the colors, smelling the fresh, spring air, absorbing all the sunshine, vitamin D and natural beauty all around you. Appreciate nature, letting it give you a high that only being outside can do.

4. Connect and play with children and animals. They are the most joyful creatures. They have no radar. Children say it as it is and animals are pure, unconditional love. Both are real and innocent, simply wanting love and affection. So vibrate with kids and animals. It will put you on a new vibrational plane.

5. LAUGH until it hurts. Laughing is the best medicine there is and has been proven to heal almost anything in life. Sometimes I have laugh so hard I can’t move…nothing feels greater. Life stops for that moment and you are on a really high, wonderful frequency, attracting more good vibrations.

Now that you have 5 ways to raise your vibration, aren’t you ready to feel great today??? Shift that VIBRATION!!!

March is all about spring and new beginnings…and it’s my birth month. It is a renewal of our spirits, our bodies, the clothes we wear and the food we eat. It’s a time for clearing, cleansing and preparing for greatness. Try putting some white clothing on, because it will give you a fresh new take on things. White is the color for wiping the slate clean and for new beginnings. Clear out the clutter in your mind, your closet and your belly. Spring is here and it’s time to let it all go.

Winter is notorious for gaining that extra 5, maybe even 10, pounds. Come March, we want to shed that extra weight. At this time of year we are also eager to shed the heavy BLACK coats, gloves and boots for lighter, more COLORFUL jackets and open toed shoes. Preparing for these clothes and our well-being, there are some wonderful foods to help us lose those unwanted pounds, getting our bodies ready for the spring and summer months. Click here to find out what colors will help you make a seamless transition from Winter to Spring!

Detoxifying your body is a great way to begin your Spring, because we need to rid ourselves of all the fattening and warming foods we’ve been consuming these last few months. Now is the time to start adding cooling foods. We want our bodies to acclimate to the coming warmer, summer months. One cooling food to eat is alfalfa sprouts. But there are so many more cooling foods to add to your diet...click here to find out what they are.

Enjoy the beginning of your renewal by shedding those extra pounds, eating alfalfa sprouts and other cooling foods. I offer wonderful cooking classes through Amazon Local, teaching you how to use colors purposefully while cooking and preparing meals. You can also go outside for a walk, soaking up the warmer weather. Did you know that just 30 minutes of exercise a day brings longevity to your life, lowering your cholesterol and blood pressure? It also changes your state of mind, making you feel great, and as we know, the mind is the key to it all. It’s time to get rid of that fear and worry and let go of that BLACK, heavy self-doubt.

You know what they say? “Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.” So let the air of spring flow into your body, mind and soul and bring in some COLOR. That's the preparation. Have fun and play around with yellow, green and orange. Feel the Renewal of your energy and spirit. You deserve it!

Happy Spring!!!

I was invited to “Ingredients for a Beautiful Life,” a cocktail and conversation hour at the Dara Lamb Atelier. It was an interesting evening, combining 2 of the greatest “life changers” for today’s high–profile women.  The evening featured Dara Lamb who custom makes made-to-measure wardrobes for executive professional women, and Dr. Jingduan Yang who combines Western medical techniques with Traditional Chinese medicine to address health, beauty and aging issues for both women and men.

They served wonderful hors d’oeuvres, but my favorite was the pear ginger tea. It was tasty and so soothing on the freezing night that it was. It was all of 10 degrees that evening, and instantly I felt the hot tea warm me up and calm me down. The two lovely Chinese women serving the tea were wrapped in pink komodo jackets, the color of unconditional love. They were a perfect representation of the color pink: gracious, lovely and filled with warm love.

Both speakers talked about what they do, their passions and why they do it. The message from both was, “When you feel good, you look good, and when you look good, you feel good.“ Haven’t you ever bought a suit or a dress that just fits perfectly? You are comfortable and at ease in your body and you love the way it moves & how you feel in it. Perhaps it is the perfect color for you, enhancing your skin tone and eyes. Every time you put it on everyone seems to compliment you. It just makes you smile and feel good. That is when you know you have bought the right garment. Sometimes it pays to invest in something that fits right.

Dara spoke about how many of her successful clients come back to her and praise her clothes for getting them that perfect job, relationship or having the perfect outfit for that special occasion. It’s how you FEEL in them. Remember, color has energy and will affect your mood and those around you, so use color thoughtfully.

Dr. Yang spoke about how we must all learn to clear out our negative thoughts, patterns of worry and self doubt so that we can allow ourselves to feel good. He emphasized how we must take care ourselves from the inside and then focus on healthy habits, exercise, good nutrition and color on the outside. And let me tell you…as soon as he mentioned color, did my ears perk up! Dr. Yang said, “Color raises your vibration and energy helping you to feel and look good.”  

Keep on using your feelings as your emotional guide through your life. Ask yourself what feels good to you! Go and do it, stay present and remember when we feel good, we look good! So how do YOU feel?

So what's YOUR passion? Watch this video and be inspired by 11 & 12 year olds who are completing their final WOW Projects for Citizen Schools and The i adore me Kids Program. They have found their passion and used their creativity to impact their community.

Once we find our passion we can step into who we really are and what we want. There's no time like the present, so find that passion within you and bring it out into the world. We all have special gifts to share. What's yours?

What are you NOT doing right now that you WANT to do? Procrastination is more fear based than anything else: fear of failure or fear of success. It’s amazing how you can do everything under the sun than do the thing you truly want to accomplish.

You can make an entire day out of errands and find five hundred things to do (laundry, going to a movie, naps, etc…), but you aren’t sitting down to complete that one specific goal. Maybe by putting some Orange in front of you, it will inspire your courage and creativity. As soon as you see the color orange it will raise your vibration into a positive state. You can also eat some orange foods like carrots and pumpkin squash. These foods give you energy. They have a lot of beta-carotene, vitamin A and vitamin C.

Ask yourself, “What is it that I really need to do and get done?” An easy way to help you in this process is to find an accountability partner. Find someone who will give you tough love and make you accountable, not someone that will lick your wounds. When we are accountable to someone other than ourselves we feel responsibility and we don’t want to dishonor our commitment to our partner and ourselves.  This will help you with one stage of procrastination.

The second stage is about being disciplined. Make a schedule and find 30 minutes to work towards your goal each and every day. Persistence is what you need here. If you make this pact with yourself and honor it, everything starts to fall into alignment. Before you know it you will have completed the process.

So I’m really curious…what is it that you are going to do? Don’t procrastinate. Take charge, take action and surround yourself with orange. Let the courage and creativity of the color empower you to move forward. Aren't you ready to really start this new year?
