Welcome dear Friends and Colleagues to the April edition of Original Thinking News.

This month we honor our best selves on this Planet as we celebrate Earth Day, 4.22.22.

Spring has sprung at VAST.
Our energies are quickening as seeds of replenishment burst through the warming soil.

Worthiness Rules this month, as dear Michelle Purnell Hepburn and I share our next segment of Curly Girls Guide to Belonging. In this episode we explore the power of: worthiness, resolute allies and ways to chart your nourishing path there. We share on:

·     The power of owning your truth

·     How Marilyn Monroe exampled the best in allyship for her talented friend Ella Fitzgerald

·     Ways to diffuse the bully’s negativity. Plus, more.

Listen here

Worthiness is embracing and expanding our confidence in our own goodness in this life, on this planet, today.

This world is quite remarkable.

Upon it we dwell in both peace and strife. The unparalleled beauty of this rock can soothe the senses and rejuvenate the weariest of souls. As the earth awakens from its wintertime pause, the pulsing of life can spark an awakening within as well...

Awe and wonder bring us nearer to owning our inherent worth. Let that reset bring you closer to embodying your sense of preciousness.

Take the time to stop and appreciate the bountiful delights of nature…the vibrant colors, the delicious scents, the caressing breeze on our face, the tangy taste of August berries and the sweet chirps of birds.

Spring’s promising fragrances waft through my walks in the world. A riot of flowers rise to greet me wherever I gaze. The bluebirds sing and the bees cozy up to the nectar-laden flowers. The azure sky is embroidered with the puffiest of clouds. The evening stars are radiant. Earendel, our newest star discovery, and his friends send us light from over 12 billion years ago. This feat of human genius, to build telescopes that can see deep into our solar system, in accord with physics, encourages me that Earth, and those who dwell upon it can and do generate miracles, including the possibility of living in harmony together.

We deserve to feel good, be happy, and be in love with life and ourselves. How does that occur?

Your heart will melt as your innate sense of connection, wonder and worth are stimulated.

Must it be intentional? Many of us do not believe ourselves “worthy" and doubt that we deserve joy or harmony during our time on this planet. Michelle and I address that on our Curly Girls’ vodcast: Worthiness Rules.

As Amber Wauters, author of Guide to Healing and Wholeness, elegantly shares, “We are value itself, and there is nothing we need to do to prove our worth. Once we realize we are worthy simply because we exist, we free our life force and liberate energy for living.”

Once we see ourselves as worthy of: supportive allies, wholeness, and so much more, our confidence and self-appreciation can skyrocket. That is when the fun begins.

What you do Matters!

With Love and warmth,
