MPORTANT message from GAIA for Earth day April 22

“Gaia”  alive,breathing and conscious.{Earth day April 22-2013}

So many humanitarian people are looking at the Boston bombing right now and are wondering about earth day should earth day become peace day .

Jerry Maguire actor tweeted Monday night.

“What bothers me most about today is that we’re getting used to it. ENOUGH. second amendment must go. Violence has to stop. Culture MUST change”

But let’s get back to earth for a second .Is earth really in danger ?

When we saw the the asteroid that crashed in Rusha. We knew that we were lucky that nothing worst happen .— Stephen Hawking, who spent his career decoding the universe and even experienced weightlessness, is urging the continuation of space exploration — for humanity’s sake.

The 71-year-old Hawking said he did not think humans would survive another 1,000 years “without escaping beyond our fragile planet.”

Now that the event is over we are always waiting for the next earth disaster like the one in Japan, Haiti,New Orleans, even New York had a Hurricane last fall .It seems like we always wait for earth disasters to talk about climate change! Some of us are telling ourselves to be more eco friendly or using Facebook to make people more conscious  about the eventual problem .But does it really matter ?

Don’t take me wrong I am and eecolover  I created eecostyle magazine after all .

Gaia ‘s message to all humans on this earth day 2013

What earth Gaia needs is love everyday! When was the last time you thought about this beautiful earth you live in and realize that she is alive like you  breathing and conscious .

“Gaia” the real name of earth need us to care for here and mostly for one and other ,now more then ever{Earth Day}

She “Gaia” the real name of earth needs us to care for her and mostly for one an other ,now more then ever . She wants us to thrive to live and enjoy every minute of our life and she hopes that we could show love and respect to her. When we see a disaster ,by guilt we do some random act of kindness and then sadly we stop . We care for the planet one day and then go back to the old routine.

Somehow I feel that the human race is not doing enough to care for the earth but mostly to themselves , you can’t give what you don’t have only if you respect your self will you be able to respect the earth …

today I feel like telling you this  Gaia:

Gaia we love you we care for you we are so sorry for everything we have done please love us more now then ever you are like our  mother , our souls sister are friend we care deeply for you , but we just lost our way . GAIA you are our home and we are so grateful for all .GAIA mother earth thanks for everything , I feel you and gracefully pray for you  We are one with you! Love ~JOGA Johanne Gagnon

Gaia with love and gratitude

Today I choose myself!

What if mother earth  just wanted us to be happy.

What if she had a message for all of us… what would it be ?

I think it would go like this because every mother wants here children to be happy , Some people say mother earth is our mother if you don’t think she is, let’s pretend for a minute that she is…. what would our mother earth tell us?

To every human soul…. I have a message for you . You have to stop worrying too much about me and start living your life .

What about you ,are you caring for your sisters and brothers are you ?

Love each other like you say you love me .

I am so grateful you respect and love me , but by loving one and other ,

love will manifest on earth and the planet will feel all of that love more then ever

Please do eat organic if you can , recycle if it is possible , do what ever you can has as the feeling that comes with it is LOVE .Only good vibration is needed in this time .

Remember do not judge others, but educate with  love

Only a open heart can change the world

~Gaia by JoGa

banana

But What about you about your life. Are you living the lifestyle that you want ?

To me this message  from  GAIA makes sense because,you know to eat organic food , to eat in the best restaurants , non chemical foods , to eat the best exotic foods ,to buy groceries in a heath food store  is not cheap.

To buy the best of skin cream that doesn’t give our skin rashes ,to buy  the best nutritional products to keep our self healthy is expensive.

To buy recycled products ,eco-products ,local and ethical products….This Takes Money!

Yes there is way around having lots of money sometimes.

you can do DIY projects ,

recycle clothing,

making your own organic garden  but most of the time it is a struggle .

The truth :Get out of survival first. No one cares about the earth when they are worried about surviving .

Make the change within your self and see the world change in front of  your eyes .

Only you deserve the best with Gaia at your side .

Today I choose my self , 

I choose love for my self and I choose to have what ever I deserve ,

today is the day that I decide that respect is the best and only thing for me and to respect my self I need to have the lifestyle that is aligned with my core.

Today I choose myself.

My core wants to  travel and see the world.

THE DISCOVERY OF MY HOME “EARTH”,  I eat the best exotic food  and live surrounded with those people that are uplifting and empowering .

Today I choose my self and you can do the same.

Burnout was Beautiful

 

 

burnout , new life , business from home

Everyone experiences burnout.

Maybe you feel overworked, sick of your marriage or stressed about money. Maybe you’re living a daily cliché: one step forward, two steps back. Life can be tricky like that.

Believe it or not, burnout can be a beautiful thing. Instead of surrendering to burnout, what if you could use it to transform your life? Just the story of so many people in empower network start with some kind of burnout or dramatic event that created some kind of shift . what if burnout was a chance for rebirth?

What is you story  we all have a story

Click here to view the video “ONCE HOMELESS”it will change your life.

I’m here to show you how you can rise from the ashes, too. If your path in life feels crooked, you can turn around and take one step forward. That’s the beauty of this story. If I can do it, so can you.

Burnout is beautiful. It gives you the chance to:

Imagine.

I never thought we could live on one income until I imagined a life without debt. Really? People lived on one income? “What if,” I thought and the rest is history. Burnout led me to imagine a life where I didn’t have to work to support the family. That changed everything. What could your life look like? If you’re unhappy at work, there is another way to make money. Start imagining it. Even a simple internet search can help. If you are crushed by debt, there is a way to change that. Imagine your life without limits. Someone else is already living your dream life – start wondering, “How did they do that?”

Become the artist.

The desire to change starts with you. Once you feel it, use that passion to experiment and try new things. Become the artist – life is the masterpiece. To get healthy, you might challenge yourself to 10 minutes of exercise each morning. Looking to transform your diet? Eat like Leo. Take a stand against debt by cutting up your credit cards. Burnout brings strong emotions like anger, fear, jealousy and sadness. Use those feelings to light your creativity on fire. Keep mixing it up with new ideas and projects.

Set people free.

Don’t expect your employer to relieve stress at work. Don’t expect your lover to make you happy. Your burnout is not their responsibility. Give yourself permission to do all the work. Setting people free from your expectations will put you back in control. You can be burnout’s victim or victor. Find one reason to do something, not a million reasons to quit. Now, no one stands in your way.

Focus on tiny movements.

That’s all it takes to change your life. If you want to quit smoking, you can stop putting a cigarette in your mouth and lighting the end. Once you master the way you move, you can do anything. You can decide to write instead of go out to lunch. You can put away the beer and go to bed early. You can feel your feet on the ground for a run. Movements, no matter how small, shape your entire life. How you go through the motions is up to you. Ask yourself today: Is the way I move beautiful? Or destructive?

Start over.

Change can be slow, but it has to start somewhere. For me, burnout became beautiful when I fed new ideas to my broken spirit. Inspiration was everywhere once I wanted to look. empower network  gave can give you the courage to begin a new life and it will empower you there is not doubt about it

I know now: Burnout is just the beginning.

It might feel awful at times. If it didn’t  how would you know when to try something new? Let your imagination fly. Learn what lights up your world before burnout defines it. Ask yourself for help first. Then, start with tiny movements. Tiny actions. Like building a new foundation, brick by brick, you can create something strong and beautiful. And why not choose to break out of it and join a group that want like you a better life it is so inspirational and uplifting that you will break out of this burnout

My wish for this Christmas

My wish for this Christmas is  that all the white snow  could turn into Pixie Dust and transform the world around me and you  into a world of  love and compassion .I wish for our children that they could at an early age lean the lesson that took us some adult a life time to learn so they can grow up and become the Person they are meant to be. I wish that everyone could find the place in their heart to forgive themselves and forgive each other, to love one another and to let go of all the patterns that doesn’t serve us any more. The key is BELIEVING so we can then make it happen.

So this is Christmas

 

This is my favorite Christmas Song.

Let’s remember the purpose  ofChristmas  
Enjoy!!

 

 

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let’s stop all the fight
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
War is over over
If you want it
War is over
Now…

John Lennon – Happy Xmas (War Is Over)

Vintage Apron,Very Classy

Vintage ModCloth
Haute Hibiscus Apron
It’s time for you to throw your annual tea party, but this year, you’re adding a twist to this time-honored tradition. Instead of Earl Grey varieties and biscuits, you’re serving iced and sugared hibiscus tea alongside candied hibiscus treats. As you serve your gleaming beverages, look ‘retro’-licious and radiant in this 100% cotton baby blue apron frosted in a cherry and mango floral fiesta and finished with scarlet waistline ties. She who loves details will marvel at the pleated bodice and ruffle-trimmed side pockets while arranging the edible flower and mint leaf garnish of each chilled crystal goblet. It’s best to plan the rest of your outfit around this piece. A flower headband, solid vintage A-line dress, and classic pump will take you from the galley counter to the gazebo party with ease and elegance.

Very Classy

In the newly expanded edition of his highly entertaining paperback “textbook,” author Derek Blasberg, a frequent contributor to both Vogue magazine and Style.com, offers even more “exceptional advice for the extremely modern lady.” In contrast, Blasberg outlines the many ‘don’ts’ of unladylike behavior, including how not to dress for formal events, what to avoid doing as a party hostess, and the worst way to approach airplane travel. Within this tongue-in-cheek coffee table guidebook from Penguin Books are vibrant photographs, charming infographics, quirky quizzes, and dashes of humor and wisdom make for a fun read worthy of its bestseller reputation.
