I hope some of these gems shine their light brightly for you

Especially if you have ever felt stuck and lost in the middle of not having enough longing for much more!

Recently I created a mood board full of things that make me tingle and glow.

I found having a space for yourself and your energy makes inner power feel stronger.

So let your own energy grow by creating your own book of inspiration is my tip.

Find what connects your feet to the ground in a noble way and blow it up large!
