Three Super Simple Ways to Align Your Peace Today

You know that feeling when you walk into a space and someone’s calm, grounded presence just makes everything feel… better? Like a pebble dropped in still water, your state of being creates ripples that touch everyone around you. And here’s the coolest part – this superpower belongs to every single one of us!

Three Super Simple Ways to Align Your Peace Today:

1. Morning Minutes
Before even rolling out of bed, try this: 3 deep breaths with your hand on your heart. Set a quick intention to carry peace with you today. Watch how this tiny ritual ripples through your entire day!

2. Energy Reset
Feeling frazzled between to-do lists and grocery runs? Quick fix: Feel those feet on the ground, straighten that spine, and imagine yourself as a clear channel of light. 30 seconds tops – but wow, what a difference!

3. The Peace Pause
If you ever feel yourself getting annoyed or impatient with others, try this little gem: “I choose peace, not just for myself, but as my gift to others.” Simple, yet powerful!

Here’s what I love most about personal mastery – it’s never just about us! Every time you choose to stay centered instead of getting pulled into the drama, you’re like a walking chill pill for everyone around you. How cool is that? Your zen moment in the grocery line might just be the reset someone else desperately needed.

Your calm is contagious, so spread it generously!

And if you want to amplify your personal peace superpowers with some one-on-one support let’s connect for a private session. I’ve opened a few more spots in Nov. before I take a little “holiday hibernation” time. Check availability and rates here.

My thoughts on a common energy healing misconception

/0 Comments/in , , /by

My thoughts on a common energy healing misconception

Last week, I happened to catch a podcast on YouTube. The woman being interviewed described a period in her life when she was out of touch with her church and exploring “New Age Spirituality.” She listed things she was involved with including tarot cards, gemstones, Reiki, past lives, akashic records, and energy healing. Then she added that she was also deconstructing her values and experimenting with being bisexual, polyamorous, and was increasingly very unhappy with her husband.

The podcast went on to share how she eventually let go of all that, returning to her roots and rekindling her love for her husband. A beautiful story of personal and spiritual growth.

And then…
As I read through the comment section I saw responses like, “I’m glad she exposed the truth about how destructive energy healing is.”

*Sigh* Here’s the reality – what she described wasn’t pure energy healing at all. Yet some people hear the term ‘energy healing’ and lump it together with all these other practices. She had branched way out into things that are not a part of energy healing.

And how about this comment: “All the women I know who get into energy healing end up leaving their church and their husbands within four years”.

Oh, pah-lease! I personally know hundreds (yes hundreds) of good, Godly women who have been helping their families and clients with energy work for many, many years.

I realize that comments like these come from people who haven’t experienced energy healing for themselves, don’t really understand it, and mistakenly group energy healing with various New Age practices, thinking they’re all the same, and putting it all under the label of ‘energy healing’.

Seeing so many misconceptions about this, and how often this powerful tool gets misrepresented is frustrating to me. Mainly because it scares off people who could really be helped by it.

Here’s the thing,
Energy Healing is NOT the same as New Age Spirituality! Energy healing stands on its own. It’s not a religion, and it doesn’t push any particular worldview or belief system. Pure energy healing is actually based on science—it works with the body’s own bio-electricity and natural vibrational resonance, much like how tuning forks naturally align to match each other’s frequencies – simple, pure, and based on natural laws. This isn’t about promoting specific beliefs; it’s about aligning with your natural state of wellness.

I get it – energy work can sound mysterious at first. But here’s something fascinating: energy is used in hospitals every day in completely mainstream ways. Think about it—machines like EEGs, EKGs, and MRIs monitor and diagnose patients by reading the body’s electrical and magnetic signals. Energy isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a fundamental part of how our bodies work and how even modern medicine connects with them.

When it comes to energy healing, we’re simply working with the body’s natural energy field in a focused, mindful way. It’s a transformative practice, not something vague or mysterious. Just as we care for our bodies with physical exercise, diet, and sleep, energy healing is a way to care for our internal energy. It helps us reset, clear out emotional clutter, and stay grounded. It’s a practical, effective resource for reducing stress, releasing old patterns, and bringing us back to our natural balance.

To put it plainly: energy healing is about clearing what holds you back and strengthening what propels you forward. It’s not woo-woo; it’s not mystical—it’s a method of working with the natural systems within us, meeting you where you are and supporting you to be more at peace and more confident.

For anyone questioning whether energy healing might interfere with their beliefs or change who they are – as a God-loving woman who has done this work for over 25 years, here’s what I can tell you: clean energy healing doesn’t require you to change your values. It actually helps you to live them more fully.

SimplyAlign is the kind of straightforward, clean energy healing I believe in and practice. It’s all about helping you feel lighter, more grounded, and fully yourself, without any extra ‘fluff’.

I appreciate you reading my vent! My hope in sharing this is that someone who needs healing but has been hesitant will feel more comfortable taking that first step toward feeling better, knowing they can stay true to themselves in the process.

Before I take a brief holiday pause from private sessions, I have a few November times still available for private energy healing sessions (choose from 25 or 50 minutes). We can connect via phone or Zoom, whatever feels most comfortable for you. Check availability and rates here.

Finding Light in Tough Times

I don’t know about you but I’ve been watching oh so many videos of the damage by Hurricane Helene these past few days. Its impact on our southeastern states here in the US is so devastating and my heart goes out to all those who have lost so much.

Though it’s hard to watch, it’s also heartening to witness the resilience of the human spirit and the power of community in action. I’ve been seeing incredible stories of courageous people stepping up to help their neighbors—some by huge means, offering their own money, helicopters, trucks and tractors. Many others providing food, water, and comfort when it’s needed most. These acts of kindness, whether big or small, show us the goodness that exists when people serve together, and the light we can share even in such difficult times.

I remember many years ago a client of mine from New Orleans who had lived through hurricane Katrina (2005), told me that one of those difficult days in the aftermath of the hurricane, some people from my church had come to the door of her mud-filled home and brought her a pillow. A pillow! A small act of kindness that she says she’ll never forget. She was so thrilled to have a new pillow after losing nearly everything. I’ve thought about that so many times through the years and how one small, thoughtful act can make a huge difference for someone else. I’ve especially thought of that every night this week as I feel so fortunate to get to sleep with my head on a soft pillow.

My client’s story and her gratitude are powerful reminders that we can always make a difference big or small. If you’re able to help – whether through donations or offering prayers – every act of generosity has a meaningful impact.

8 Practical Things You Can Do Now To Increase Self Worth

8 Practical Things You Can Do Now To Increase Self Worth

This week, I’m excited to share a special guest post from Miriam Bross, an inspiring coach from Portugal who teaches about emotional intelligence. Miriam’s post resonated with me, and I think you’ll love what she has to say.

She’s sharing 8 simple, yet powerful, ways to cultivate a stronger sense of self-worth—practices she’s been using herself over the past few months. Enjoy!

I wanted to share a few practices I’ve been doing these past few months to increase my sense of self-worth.

1. Decide that you are worthy. If you don’t believe it yet, that’s ok. Beliefs are just thoughts we keep thinking and we can change that any time. Decide that you will change this belief.

2. Every time you have a good idea, say “I’m so smart!”, “This is brilliant! I always have such great ideas!”, and/or “I’m a genius!” Even if it feels a bit strange or over the top at first keep going. After a while the thoughts become automatic.

3. When you remember something you forgot, focus on the remembering. Instead of “How could I forget?!” Say or think “It’s so great I remembered!!”

4. Praise yourself every time you do something well. If you already keep a list of things that go well in your life and business every day, add one or several points to it of things that YOU did well that day!

5. Tell yourself that you love yourself at least once a day. If possible in front of a mirror, but if not at first, just in general.

6. Every time you see something amazingly beautiful or when nature puts on a show (like swallows flying in a formation worthy of a top gun movie) say or think: “This is for me. It’s all for me.” Take a few breaths and let it sink in.

7. If you notice that these sentences trigger worry or fear, that’s ok. This response is just a bad habit. Nothing more or less. No biggie. Distract yourself as quickly as possible by focusing on something completely different.

8. And most importantly, repeat, repeat, repeat because beliefs are just thoughts we keep thinking and we all deserve to belief in our worth.

Thanks goes to Miriam at: https://ei-forlife.com/ for letting me share her insights.

Need a Fun Summer Read?

Need a Fun Summer Read?

Are you on the hunt for a fun and insightful book to dive into this summer? Something with a great message but not too heavy? I’ve got just the pick for you, it’s one of my favorite books: How to Be Miserable by psychologist Randy Paterson. This tongue-in-cheek book takes a refreshingly unique approach by showcasing 40 specific behaviors and habits that are guaranteed to lead to unhappiness. But, – when you flip these habits on their head, you might just find yourself among the happiest peeps around!

Now, we all know the drill with self-help books (I love them!), they can often promise love, happiness, and the ideal life. But How to Be Miserable flips the script.

It’s all about identifying those pesky actions and mindsets that can drag us down. You know the ones – when we’re feeling blue, and our instincts push us to focus on the negative, dwell on things we can’t change, isolate ourselves, munch on junk food, or stay up way too late. Ring a bell?

This clever and humorous guide helps you spot those behaviors that are making you unhappy and shines a light on how you might be holding yourself back from living your best life. You’ll learn to recognize the classic traps that ramp up dissatisfaction, zap your motivation, and lower your quality of life – and, more importantly, how to dodge them.

It will definitely guide you toward the life you truly want and help you steer clear of the one you don’t! And give you some chuckles along the way.

Happy reading, friend ~ let me know how you like it!

Summer Habits

Why Summer is the Perfect Time for New Habits

Why Summer is the Perfect Time for New Habits

I know that summer often feels like that frustrating time when all your routines and schedules go out the window. The kids are home, or grandkids visit, vacations get packed in, and let’s be honest – habits can be hard to hang onto!

But what if I told you summer isn’t the habit-hampering season you think? That in fact, it could be your golden ticket to finally nailing those new habits you’ve been chasing?

I’ve been personally trying this out the past few weeks, and I’ve figured out that while it may seem counterintuitive, summer can actually be an ideal season for establishing new healthy habits. Here’s why:

* The summer mindset is all about renewal and freshness. The warm temperatures and abundant sunshine have an invigorating effect mentally and physically. We tend to crave lighter foods, spend more time outdoors, and have a spring in our step (well, hopefully most days). This vibrant energy is the perfect catalyst for making positive changes.

* Summer’s slower pace also works in your favor. With fewer commitments and a more relaxed schedule, you have the time and mental bandwidth to properly integrate new habits. Starting incremental, sustainable habits is far easier when you’re not rushing from one endless obligation to the next.

* The summer season is also a powerful motivator all on its own. Who doesn’t want to look and feel their best in warm weather and lighter clothing? New fitness routines, healthier eating, hydrating more – these habits seem so much more attractive and worthwhile in the summer.

* Finally, habits started in summer can easily carry into fall. You’ve already done the hard work of installing the new routines and patterns in your brain. By September, those habits will be second nature.

So don’t buy into the idea that summer’s lack of schedule makes it impossible to upgrade your habits. Embrace the mindset, pace, motivation and consistency offered by the season to finally make those positive changes you’ve been waiting for!

Pretty cool how summer could actually be your habit-changing power season, right? That lazy vacay time may be the secret weapon you never expected!

So get started this weekend: commit to just one new habit.

Whether it’s kicking off your day with a green smoothie, journaling your thoughts, squeezing in a morning workout (I’ve been enjoying the 30-day wall Pilates for “mature” ladies), or anything else that fits your vibe, the choice is yours.

Don’t let summer’s schedule shake-ups stop you – reframe this as your habit-building season and watch the magic happen!

You’ve totally got this!

Celebrating Milestones and New Possibilities

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Celebrating Milestones and New Possibilities

Last week was my birthday, and as is my new tradition here in DC, I celebrated by visiting the Smithsonian Zoo (those meerkats always crack me up!).

meerkat

My birthday got me feeling nostalgic about my journey in this business over the years. Believe me, it hasn’t always been as easy as A-B-C, but along the way:

A – I’ve taught SimplyALIGN several times in Australia, Alabama, and Arizona (among many other places!). Each location has brought unique experiences and wonderful connections, enriching my journey in ways I never imagined.

B – I’ve had to get past Blocks, mental Barriers, and Burnout. These challenges have tested my resilience, but they’ve also made me stronger and more determined to help others on their paths.

C – But ultimately, I’ve gained Confidence, Compassion, and Courage. These core values support my work and everything I do, from energy healing to possibilities coaching.

The road hasn’t been perfect, but it’s been oh-so-worth it. Every step, every hurdle, and every breakthrough has shaped who I am today and how I can best serve my clients.

> Now I’d love to hear from you. <

When you reflect on your own journey, what are the top 3 lessons you’ve learned on your path of personal growth? For a bit of fun, pick a letter and tell me three lessons you’ve learned that begin with that letter (like my ABC’s above). Hit reply and share your insights—I’m all ears!

Much Love,

Carolyn

P.S. Stay tuned for some exciting updates and opportunities coming your way soon! (Teaser: my new Podcast, group coaching, new website, SA Training dates -phew, we’ve been joyfully busy over here!)
