Had the best time exploring the Outer banks and celebrating another trip around the Sun!

Happy Spring Equinox! Cheers to new beginnings! The first day of Spring also marks the first day of the astrological calendar year, a perfect time to set intentions and plant seeds!
Today I am stepping into the new year armed with my seeds of intention! May them flourish into beautiful gifts in my life!

I encourage you today to do something fresh and renew your energy!

Namaste,
Armenia

Celebrating my commitment to choosing me! 1 year ago today I made the commitment to live an alcohol-free life, what was scary at first has turned out to be the greatest gift I have given myself!
Looking back to the early days when I had fear of “coming out” to today when I embrace it fully and feel the best I have ever felt! Cheers to a lifetime of choosing me!

Confidence!

This has been a hot topic in my recent coaching sessions. Lack of confidence, imposter syndrome, building confidence, overcoming fear… have all been recurring themes in my conversations lately.

Mostly, I have observed the majority believe that one is born with innate confidence, however my own experience has led me to believe that this is something that most have built over time with life experiences.

I am asked often about my experience at Chopra Retreats, hosting webinars, podcasts, etc…. The majority believes I was always confident showing up and doing “my thing”. However, this is not the case. In the beginning of my career I often struggled with showing up and believed I didn’t have enough knowledge or experience to make a significant impact.

The one thing that had rooted me and aided in overcoming my fears, anxiety, self-doubt, has always been asking myself:
How can I help and serve?

Shifting my perspective to service takes the attention away from me. I know the universe has guided those who have something to receive from me my way. We are meant to learn from each other and grow. We all have something to share.

Next time you are presented with a situation that makes you uncomfortable, I invite you to ask yourself. How can I help and serve in this moment?

Remember, it’s not about us. We are here everyday to learn from each other. We are all sharing our unique gifts and bringing love and joy to this world.

Namaste 🙏

Happy June!
Perfect memory popped up today with my teacher Deepak Chopra! I am so grateful for all the tools I have learned from him and for the ability to share and contribute to countless transformations over the years 🙏

New month is always an opportunity to observe a theme for a short time. June is bringing many changes to my life! I am currently navigating the sale of a house, buying a new one, navigating a move with my boys, temporarily living away from my husband, work, the list goes on and on! My June theme is Detachment! I am letting go of the need to control my life and trusting the universe’s guidance!

What is your focus this month? What are you working on? I would love to hear some other themes being observed in June 💕

Today is World Meditation Day!

For the last few weeks, as we explored Mental Health Month, Meditation has been part of my conversations with clients, friends, family, and anyone who has explored the topic of Mental hygiene with me.

For over a decade now, Meditation has become an essential tool in my life. Meditation is also my most recommended tool when coaching and teaching my clients.

As we celebrate Meditation today, it is important to recognize the growth and the place that meditation has in today’s society. We now have research showing the benefits of meditation on a physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual level.

Why would someone meditate? Let’s look at some examples:

1. Stress Reduction
2. Boost to Immune System
3. Hormone Balance
4. Cell Rejuvenation
5. Connection to Self

These are just a few in a long list of benefits that we can explore!

Have you ever experienced meditation? Would you like to experience it?

I am always excited to connect and discuss meditation. I hope you give it a try! Let me know if you are ready to take your first step towards a practice that will give you lifelong happiness 🧘🏻‍♀️

Life is constantly changing.

Being open to infinite possibilities is the best path to continued growth and to the enjoyment of life’s gifts.

Taking a leap of faith and jumping into a new and unknown path is best when done with a partner you trust and know has your back.

It’s time for me to trust the constant change the universe throws my way and embark on a family move to Tulsa, Oklahoma.

I take this next step knowing the universe got my back! I embark in this journey with the best partner supporting and guiding our family. I am so grateful for and the family we created together.

It’s not easy to start over, but we have done this many times and have learned great lessons each time. I have my grounding tools and am ready to use them as needed.

1. Daily meditation keeps me grounded and releases anxiety.
2. Movement in the form of walks, yoga, weight lifting to provide me with happy energy and release stagnation in my physical body.
3. Nourishment of my body with the rainbow to receive all the energy from nature.
4. Gratitude journaling.
5. Soaking in the beautiful energy from my loved ones!

Change is not easy, but it’s an opportunity to grow! Setting positive intentions, planting beautiful seeds, and trusting the universe is the best way to navigate it and utilize this opportunity to grow!

Tulsa here we go!

They might not be so little anymore, but they are my forever babies! Love being the mom of these three beautiful souls! It’s such an honor to see them each grow into their unique beings! Happy Mother’s Day to all mamas out there!

Happy Mindfulness Month!

This month we are celebrating the greatest tool that I have adopted into my life, the gift of Meditation. I was a young mother living in Paris when my very dear friend Susan introduced me to my very first meditation. She not only introduced me to meditation, but to a Deepak Chopra Meditation.

I cannot say enough words of gratitude to Susan! This simple tool has completely changed my life and who I am as an individual.

I have since gone on a spiritual path of connecting to my inner voice, connected to the beauty that surrounds me, and found deeper connection and guidance from the universe.

I have also guided many into meditation and to develop a practice that is their own.

Being part of the Chopra family for over a decade has also brought me to connect to so many beautiful souls and be part of their path to wellness and self-discovery.

What mindfulness practice have you adopted? Are you curious about meditation? I would love to hear what you are currently doing to slow down and practice being centered this month?

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

Our environment is so important to us! In Ayurveda we consider our environment to be part of the layers of our physical body. We are made up of the elements, they are part of our makeup.

Today as we pay special attention to this topic, how can we commit to honoring this extension of our bodies? How can we respect our environment as we do our personal body?

We are in constant exchange with our surroundings and therefore are ONE with our beautiful Earth!

I invite you to be mindful of the choices you make today and every day. Many of our choices are unconscious. Add a small dose of extra attention and you might be creating a ripple effect of positive change in our beautiful planet!

Looking back at where I started! Over a decade ago I went on a self-discovery journey that led me to the Chopra universe. My first training was Meditation quickly followed by Ayurveda and Yoga after falling in love with Vedanta!

The beginning journey was focused on me, my family, and just gaining confidence as a teacher.

I have now taught hundreds to Meditate, practice Yoga, and Coached them to connect to a higher version of themselves.

The learning is ongoing and I am always excited to add more knowledge to my toolbox!

Fun memory!

Now what? Ready or not 41 here I go!
This year there was a lot more talk around my age. I have been more vocal about my age since studying Hormone Health this past year and finding my age to be a contributing factor in some of the personal changes I saw around my health.
As with new beginnings, this one has me revisiting my life priorities, time allocation, and what I envision for myself this upcoming year. Meditation has been the most powerful tool with this exploration, allowing me to expand my vision and take a deeper look into the ongoing cycles I have in my life. What cycles do I need to break and release? What cycles have been nurturing and need further dedication?

This has been a fun exploration and one I am not normally participating on the receiving end….As a Wellness Coach I am typically guiding individuals into these types of exercises. It’s wonderful to step into my client’s shoes and feel the power that self-exploration and transformation can awaken in an individual.

I find most individuals shy away from sharing with others their feelings around self-transformation, but I find it empowering and that it can ignite deeper connections within social circles.

If you are exploring your own journey and looking at making wellness changes I would love to connect! I currently have a couple of coaching spots that opened up and would enjoy a conversation to see if transformational coaching is a fit for you! DM me or link to website in my Bio.
