♥ I Love My Family ♥
August was an intensely busy month. SO much has been going on over here! We enjoyed the blistering summer, completed various projects around the house, and savored the time we spent with friends and family. We are grateful that as of just this week, Tayla is back in school. I am already enjoying the structure around it. Kids in bed early leaves time for ME and hubby time in the evening! Yay!
On August 5th, the third quarter of the Human Design year began. During this time of year, we tend to our energetic gardens. This is the time where all of the seeds we planted at the beginning of the year are now reaping benefits. For me, this rings so very true as the many seeds that I have had in the ground are now bearing fruit. I can't wait to hear how much your personal energetic garden is growing as well!
There is a reason I am still alive, and that my family is still here too. We are not done serving our purposes. I feel like each of the members in my family are just beginning in this regard. Yet on August 22, my family of five had a very near death experience. I briefly posted about it on Facebook because it was a very profound moment. I created a video all about this near head-on collision and the rich depth of realizations that came from that moment. Please enjoy watching my Be Present Follow Your Intuition Get Out of Your Head! video where I go into detail about what happened and the takeaways I am alive to share.
And so it is that we survived. We are here to live on until our purposes have been served.
The picture of the deers below is just one small aspect of nature we enjoyed once we arrived in Portola, CA after that experience. Yes precious deers, I see you and feel your loving energy. Thank you for blessing our presence and allowing us to do the same.
Alive ♥ Nature ♥ Deers
I have also been gearing up for the big launch and promotion of my book, Abundance By Design: Discover Your Unique Code for Health, Wealth and Happiness with Human Design. I am a co-author of this compilation style book. My chapter, Money, shares the story of how Human Design shifted me to embrace and BE my authentic self, while serving my clients in a passionate and fulfilling way.
Here is a sneak-peek paragraph from my chapter, Money:
"Wealth does also encompass money, and money is whatever you choose it to be. Money is love. Money is beauty. Money is our friend. It loves us just as we love it. Money is energy. We are all energy, and together we can build a relationship with money that dances in harmony. The energy of money needs to flow. The more kind we are with embracing the flow of that energy, the kinder the universe is with us. When we give with pure intentions, the universe rewards us twice over or even tenfold. When we have excess wealth, it is up to us to see the beautiful choice that money has given us: to either continue accumulating or to effect change in the world by sharing it to make an impact greater than ourselves."
The book is currently on Amazon.com and taking pre-sale orders for the Kindle version through the publish date, September 19, 2016. There will be a $0.99 sale on the Kindle version if you'd like to wait to pre-order. I will let you know when that goes live. You can also find out more about the book at http://gracepointmatrix.com/abundance-by-design-book/ . There are links and bios to each author as well. I also officially have an Amazon Author page, so please visit http://www.Amazon.com/author/alanaheim to check it out.
September Prosperity Tips
💜 Listen to your intuition to understand how it serves you. Trust this inner guide. Trust yourself. Love yourself.
💜 As of 8/30/16, the planet Mercury has gone retrograde. Remember to double check your work, and give yourself time for accuracy and clear communications. Even if you feel like you are going backwards, know this is the energy around you causing that feeling. YOU are not the reason. This energy will pass before the end of the month. Be patient with yourself, and with others until then.
💜 Say hello to a creature that crosses your path. The awareness you exude in that moment brings you into reality, into being present. Presence allows you to see opportunities that you may have otherwise missed.
September Assignment
This month I would like you to play with the concept that our heads/minds/brains are not our decision making authorities. Instead, use your head to simply create and spark possibilities. There are no outcomes or expectations tied to these possibilities - simply let them be a dream that lights you up. The more you tune in to what possibilities your mind can create, the more the energy to make them happen will appear in your reality. Be open. Be limitless. Be inspired and inspiring. Be YOU. And dream BIG.
With love and gratitude,
Alana
