As December arrives, it brings the magic of the holiday season and the promise of a fresh start in the coming year. So what better time than this to reflect on the months that have passed, express gratitude, and tap into your creative spirit? To help you make the most of this special month, I’ve curated a collection of my favorite prompts designed to inspire introspection, creativity, and personal growth. There are 4 prompts, designed to be explored one each week! So be prepared to embark on a journey of self-discovery and embrace the beauty of December.

A few days ago, I was in a course to become a certified clinical hypnotherapist.

The experience was enlightening and filled with learning and personal growth.

However, it was a lunchtime conversation that truly stood out and left a lasting impression on me.

Seated at the table was a couple, another woman, and myself.

What struck me immediately was the uncanny resemblance between the couple and my partner, Bert, and me.

As the conversation flowed, they shared their own beautiful love story, mentioning how they had initially met on Hinge, a dating app.

We were swapping great relationship stories and sharing how grateful we are that at this time of our lives, we have found an amazing relationship, so much love and happiness.

But then, something unexpected happened.

Do you ever struggle to feel gratitude? If you do, you’re not alone. Unfortunately, many of my students do too. Yet, what they don’t realize is that they struggle to recognize the feeling of gratitude because they spend most of their time feeling stress, frustration, and negativity. But here's what’s most interesting: once you start feeling even a tiny bit of gratitude where you begin to appreciate and feel thankful, something remarkable happens. Gratitude has its own emotional signature… it's that feeling you get when you're receiving something, or when something good has happened to you or is happening right now. It's like saying "thank you" to life because you're receiving its gifts. ?But here's the challenge: you have to keep that positive state of mind and body throughout your entire day, no matter what's happening around you, no matter how strongly those old emotional habits try to pull you back, and no matter how much time passes.? And guess what? When you can maintain this state long enough, get ready for some REAL magic because unexpected things start happening! Synchronicities, coincidences, opportunities… They come to you without you having to chase them down. It's like the universe delivers them right to your doorstep.

?To help you get into this powerful vibrational state all year long, I’ve handpicked for you my favorite gratitude quotes. Hope you enjoy them!

Last month was undeniably challenging for me. My heart felt heavy as my mum got admitted to a dementia ward at a nursing facility. Despite being miles away, I couldn't help but wonder how I could support my family and my mum during this challenging transition.

In times like these, it's natural to be consumed by the negative aspects of the situation, allowing ourselves to feel the emotions that arise. However, it's crucial not to dwell there indefinitely. Instead, I've chosen to take a proactive approach.

Do you often find yourself stuck in a recurring pattern where self-doubt and negativity dominate your decisions, even though you've been trying hard to switch things up?

Did you know your limiting beliefs are the real reason you doubt yourself?

They're why you may sometimes feel unworthy of opportunities right before you - even when you've already put in the hard work. The majority of these beliefs take root when we’re 6-7 years old and they remain buried so deeply that we often go through life oblivious to their existence. Yet, their influence on us is undeniable. To change the negative patterns in your life, you must first identify and release the limiting beliefs in the subconscious and then replace them with new, empowering beliefs. ?In this week’s blog, we'll explore 7 common toxic childhood beliefs and how they can affect your adulthood.

Ever gazed up at the night sky and found yourself spellbound by the radiant allure of a full moon?

The full moon is a captivating celestial event that has fascinated humanity for centuries.

Its luminous presence, bathing the night sky in its radiant light, has given rise to many captivating myths and legends.

But here's the thing… These myths aren't just tales told around the campfires or whispered in hushed tones under the moonlight.

No, they've been believed and embraced by cultures around the globe for centuries.

From the idea that the full moon can nudge us toward madness to the belief that it can impact our physical health, potentially leading to an increase in accidents, hospital admissions, or even a surge in births.

But, amidst this celestial web of stories, one thing remains clear… The full moon exudes a profound energy that can be harnessed for personal growth and transformation.

In this week’s blog, we'll explore how you can use affirmations to amplify the potential of the full moon and manifest positive change in your life.

Do you ever find yourself stuck in a mental traffic jam, surrounded by honking thoughts like, "I'm not good enough," or "I'll never achieve my dreams"?

The truth is… We all do.

That's the relentless chatter of our inner critic, and it's like a backseat driver but with absolutely no sense of direction.

But here's the thing: sometimes, those backseat drivers take over the wheel and turn it into something much more sinister… Limiting beliefs.

A limiting belief is a block in your mind, a piece of negative programming burrowed inside your subconscious that negatively impacts a particular part of your life.

Yet, like most people, you probably don't even realize what limiting beliefs are inside your mind, or how they're stopping you from reaching your fullest potential. Your limiting beliefs are the REAL reason you doubt yourself. They're why you may sometimes feel unworthy of opportunities right before you - even when you've already put in the hard work to avail them. They even block your ability to be consistent in manifesting the Law of Attraction. And as long as you don't take the steps to erase your limiting beliefs, they will keep you playing small and never achieving your biggest goals. In this week’s blog, we’ll explore 7 prompts that can help you uncover these limiting beliefs and help you live in alignment.

One of the questions I often get asked is…“Natalie, I work hard to achieve my goals and dreams and I’m tired of just surviving… Is there something I’m missing? What’s the secret to attracting more wealth and abundance?” When people ask me this, my answer is always the same: One thing that most people often forget is that money is energy. Money is something to be embraced and celebrated, not feared or judged. It is common for people to fear or judge money, often associating it with negative emotions such as greed or shame.

This energy, like everything else, is impacted by the thoughts, words, and emotions we fuel it with. If you resent money and treat it negatively, you’ll struggle to attract and hold onto it.

On the other hand, when you appreciate money and thank it, it becomes your friend, and it will come to you even when you least expect it. Why? Because you are welcoming it!

If you want to welcome more money into your life, then here are 3 money principles that will expand your abundance.
