GROWTH EMULATES NATURE - PARENTING

April 10, 2020/ Kirsten Reck

Happy Saturday! How has your week been? 💟💞

My heart used to sooooooo long and desire for parenting to feel easier. 👩‍👦👩‍👦 It used to feel so hard and I used to feel so frustrated. I mean I only had one child - how my grandmother had ten was completely beyond my comprehension. 😲🥴🤔😆💘💗 I can now connect wholeheartedly with the feeling of peace, ease and internal fulfillment as a mother. ☮🙏☮💚🌈 It has been a process of growth using the Emotionally Happy Homes® systems. Below is a lose structure on how growth can take shape. 🏡🌺💙

I love growth - like really love it! Perhaps it's from all the sport I played as a kid. 🚴‍♂️🤸‍♂️⛹️‍♀️🤾‍♀️🏊‍♀️🤽‍♀️ When you live in a country town, it's kinda what you do to fill your leisure time! Or it was what I did. 💫✨ I played so many different sports and loved growing in all of them - I would practice, practice and practice. Similar to growth where you keep exploring your internal world until you 'feel' like you've so got it! 🌱🌴🌲🌼

With growth, you start by untangling your tree roots (family patterns and programs). 🌱🍃🌱🌴 Those roots may all feel a bit tangled and messy in the beginning and you may need to create many new beliefs to support your heart/higher self. 💟💓💗 Eventually you get to a space where you unconditionally feel love for everyone in your family. It may not mean hanging out with them every day, however you deeply appreciate your lineage and understand that you are their evolution. 🧘‍♂️🧘‍♀️🙏🙌

You start to put in place daily, weekly rhythms to support yourself being the best version of you in your home (in my case: stillness time🙏, meditation, yoga 🧘‍♀️, plant based food🌱, conscious conversation, awareness, nature 💦, money education💰), knowing that these same rhythms will create synchronicity, vitality and energy in your life. 🤛🤙😍✨

The next step is to build a strong trunk 🏝🌴- it can feel challenging at times, because you may need to have a number of different experiences to explore whether you bend or break in different situations. 💪🌱You may need to pull apart lots of different patterns (that need evolve), programs (that need to change) or ancestral knots (inherited from grandparents, ancestors etc). 💨☮💫✨

However, those experiences enable you to grow your 'feeling' self and you start to discern what choices feel light in your body. 👼🧚‍♀️🧘‍♀️You feel stronger, more empowered and more free to be who you are. You have an appreciation of the time you've invested in growth and if you have children they start to reflect your growth. You notice how free they are in following their excitement, independence and creativity. 🎨🎉🏏🧩🎵🎸Your evolution and growth, means they don't have to play out any of your unresolved emotional stuff in their own lives. 💨💫☮☯

Although it may have taken time - months or even a few years for the mango tree to fruit, it has been so worth it! 🙏🙌🤛👏The fruit grows easily and effortlessly and life reflects this. 🥑🍎🍇🍈🍋🥭The heart of the tree is strong 💨💝, courageous and although storms, cyclones can show up, the tree feels an internal stillness, peace and quiet. ☮☯🙏 The fruit nourishes you and everyone in the family. The past internal turbulent emotions no longer have any power - they have been understood, transformed and evolved. 💨💫✨😊🌈

Whatever it is you would love to excel in, expand, reach your potential in - never give up! It's all in you - it may take some deep growth to access all of the magic, ✨💫🎆vitality and ease, but know that your evolution feeds all future generations to come. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👭👩‍👩‍👧👩🏾‍🤝‍👩🏼👨🏿‍🤝‍👨🏽

RUMBLING WITH EGO IN PARTNERSHIP

March 23, 2020/ Kirsten Reck

Happy Monday! How has your week been? 💟💞

Do you find yourself having more rumbles with your partner's ego than tumbles in the bedroom? 🤣💨💫 Does it feel like that story you read to your child at bedtime, 'We're Going on a Bear Hunt' where you 'can't go over the mud, you can't go under it, you've gotta go through it?' 🐻🐻 Yep, working with an ego can definitely feel like thick, oozy mud! 💩💩🐾 When you're in it you may not see your own path - the fog can cloud the bridge up ahead. 👁‍🗨👁‍🗨

I have certainly had my fair share of pesky rumbles with my partner's ego 🤣😁 (and yes I used to have a very strong ego so I'm no exception 💪), however, breaking through can feel like the sun finally coming out after torrential rain! 🌟⭐☀🌞There's absolute bliss, peace, intimacy and affection when you're not fighting with an ego. 😍🥰😘

Some of the most common patterns I've experienced in my own home with 'ego' as well as helped clients with are:

*Doesn't need any help and believes it's right.

*The outside world (eg finanancial situation, career, health, children's behaviour) 🤑👭 influences how the person feels.

*Operates from fear - fear of being out of control, addressing pain, getting help.💥💥

*Everything is measured, rigid, inflexible. 💨

*There may be a lot of physical pain in their body - unprocessed emotions that are stored in organs glands, body parts etc 🤐😩

*Justifies and defends a lot in communication. 😣😤

I am so grateful to my husband who is happy for me to share an example of how his ego used to surface in our home. That man certainly does rock! 😍🥰

Through awareness we realised his self esteem/ego thrived on challenge/struggle/stress. 💥💨💥 If you're ever in a life or death situation, you definitely want this man by your side! 💟🌈 However, when I was thriving, loving life, high vibration he would pull away or take from the space. He no longer felt valuable or needed. 🌱🌈 A new belief was created where he believed he was worthy to give and receive from a deep, loving, intimate, light and easy partnership. 💖💏💑

The Emotionally Happy Homes® tool I used a lot to navigate through the mud 😊 was 'Trust energy' where I trusted myself to kindly and warmly share what I was seeing. So I would say, 'My love, can you see that you're controlling, in fear, justifying or defending etc right now? What would you love to create or feel in this space?' 😍😘🥰

💖💟💖

Sending you all so much love,

Kirsten

PARTNERSHIP - GIVING OR GETTING?

March 08, 2020/ Kirsten Reck

Happy Sunday! How has your week been? 💟💞

One of the most important things I've learnt in partnership is to go beyond 'how or what do I get?' to 'how can I be a contribution to who my husband is and what is in his heart?' 💞🌈💗If you wholeheartedly believe you can give yourself everything you need, then partnership can be a space you joyfully give to, without needing or expecting anything in return. ☮

I was quite frustrated with our outdoor garden and patio some time ago and I found myself repeatedly asking my husband about it. 🌱🏡🌼 I was curious why he wasn't leaning into finishing the no dig garden and tiling of the outdoor area. When I spoke to him about it, he honestly shared that it wasn't an excitement for him right now. I realised I'd had an expectation on him. 🌺🌼

It was an excitement for me so I was really happy to choose/buy tiles for the alfresco, organise a tiler and finish the no dig garden. 🎉✨ I have to admit that maneuvering a Bunning's trolley with 10 heavy bags of compost and big bales of sugar cane mulch down a hill to the car, was an interesting experience. 💪💪💥 Definitely would've been one for 'Funniest Home Video's'. 💖💞🤣

The female energy in us all (we all have male and female energy) loves the freedom to follow our independent excitements, to flow and to receive growth when the waters may feel turbulent. 🌱💦🌏 The gift you can give to everyone in your home is to encourage them to follow their soul's callings and to ask them where they would love you to contribute to their heart. 😍🥰

I don't need anything in our family, but there are lots of desires in my heart. 💜💚💜 My heart loves to feel light and happy in my day to day, so I love it when the males in my family can contribute to that. I love how our son spoke up the other morning. 🤩😍 He asked how yoga was and my reply was, "Wow it was so tough - a real challenge". 🙏🧘‍♀️ He said, "Mum, do you realise you say that every morning?"

I was like, "Oh my goodness, I do don't I? 🤔😋 However, my choice is to feel inspired by my practice, to notice where I've improved, become more present and celebrate moving my body every day". I loved his contribution to my growth! 🙏🙌🤜

SECRET INGREDIENT TO AN EMOTIONALLY HAPPY HOME

February 07, 2020/ Kirsten Reck

Happy Friday! How has your week been? 💟💞

Do you ever have those mornings when you wake up and you feel irritable and you're like, 'No, no, no' I want to feel happy and light? 😊💫✨ I was feeling this way one morning this week and I knew the emotion was communicating something to me. So I took a deep breath and embraced it like a big, warm hug. I had an inkling it had something to do with the night before. 🤔😏 What I then did was reach out for another set of eyes from my healing sister. 👀👀 💕💕 Please know that you are always welcome to text me in these spaces as I would love to be another set of eyes for you. ☮💞

One of the main secret ingredients to creating an Emotionally Happy Home® 😘😍🏡🏡 has been in having another set of eyes on us (along with many one on one sessions in the past). Home is where you can let go with the most vulnerability and where we have the freedom to express all of our colours. 🎗🎈🎁

If you're open and willing to see the full spectrum of your colours in the home (dark, grey, red, bright yellow) then you have an opportunity to evolve, grow, make different choices and connect more deeply with yourself and others. ✨🎇

The creator of the systems, Jules O'Neill has been that other set of eyes for us. 💚💛 So many times I've reached out for help, desiring clarity on what is going on in our home if things are feeling funky. When you're in your own patterns, programs and knots it's not always easy to see. 👀 Once I'm aware, I can make different choices and what was once unconscious, now becomes conscious. 👌👌🌺🌺

So I texted Jules and sure enough she confirmed what I suspected. It was watching a Netflix series for 2 hours the night before with my husband. I went to blame 2 things:

1. That Netflix show always pulls me in 😍🤣🥰

2. I was so influenced by my husband. 😘🥰😍

None of which were true - I'm responsible for my choices. 💪💦 It's never another person or thing. The outside may pull out something on the inside - emotions, but they would've already been in me. 💌💨

That night I'd decided to meditate and finish listening to an awesome spiritual audio book, however I hadn't followed my flow. To be spiritual and conscious everyday in the home environment requires a lot of presence. 🌱🌼💝

💖💟💖

Sending you all so much love,

Kirsten

CRICKET CO-OPERATION

January 19, 2020/ Kirsten Reck

Happy Monday! How has your week been? 💟💞

Yesterday afternoon our little family packed up our cricket stuff and headed to the local park. 🌈🌟 We were excited to share time together and have a fun game of cricket... and it was heaps of fun up until the last 20 minutes. 🤣😂

My husband declared, "Right, 1 more bat each and that's it. We're going home" Our son was devastated and a big tantrum ensued - crying and expressing, "Why is Daddy in charge?". 💨💫 In these spaces the first thing I do is to hold space and give him the freedom to express, so that he feels it's safe to release emotion. 😪😥

Our experience with emotion is that there is always magic 💞✨☯☮ in understanding what our body is communicating. It is also an opportunity to connect and understand ourselves on a much deeper level. 💚💜💚The byproduct of knowing your heart/higher self more intimately is a deeper and loving connection with your home and family.

Secondly, when we were home we had a conversation about it. I used awareness and I tested the first person to look at was my husband. His awareness was to let go of authority and instead focus on 'working together' with Ethan to come up with solutions so they both felt free and had a choice. 🎉🎆🎈

Ethan loved this and felt heard, understood and seen. Lyell equally felt light because he desires a loving and open connection with his son.💗💝They agreed that next time we play cricket they would both decide on how long to play for and set a timer.

💖💟💖

Sending you all so much love,

Kirsten
