Tidbits of Wisdom to inspire your unique life journey – Jeanne Loehnis, Songs For Your Spirit, LLC
Life regularly presents opportunities for learning, growing, expanding! Here you’ll find ideas, stories and inspiration from my life. As you read, be sure to consider the unique and amazing life that is yours. Only then, discern if this tidbit is for you!
The next time you find yourself racing to get “it” done, or whirling with thoughts about what isn’t “right”, take a moment to stop, breathe in deeply and repeat:
I am enough. I have enough. I do enough.
Repeat as often as you need to until you sense an internal energy shift. Be here.
What do you notice?
What voices have been silenced?
What voices can now be “heard”?
What is enough?
Ever find yourself “out of sorts”, “off”, perhaps angry for no apparent reason? Perhaps there are times, also, when life is spinning at 100 mph yet you are happy, engaged, and “ready for more”. What is going on?
One possibility is this: Each of us have certain basic needs which, when met, keep us grounded, healthy, and “in our life”. For me, these “non-negotiables” are adequate sleep, healthy food, alone time, and exercise. When our non-negotiables are unmet for too long, we head down the road toward “out of sorts”, unhappy, or “flying off the handle”.
What are your non-negotiables?
What happens when they go unmet?
What is it worth – to you – to tend to yours today?
You have undoubtedly felt 100% commitment at times. Perhaps you were passionately engaged in an activity or filled with intention around a relationship. Call into your awareness what 100% commitment feels like in your body, mind, emotion, and spirit.
Now, mentally walk through your “to-do list” for today. Where does 100% commitment show up?
What shift will it take to bring 100% commitment each item on that list?
What will you gain by engaging at 100%?
What do you lose when you don’t?
What needs to fall off the list?
Our chosen belief system has a HUGE impact on our lives – but then, you knew that. Well, I just want to share with you an experience that began one hour ago. The story? I was doing my husband a favor – a ten minute favor – before getting into this day which has clients and stuff to do! We were delayed. Ten minutes became 40. I watched as my insides got triggered. My emotional being got stressed and frustrated, my heart was pounding, my head was spinning with how the inconvenience would impact my morning.

Your powerful impact emerges when you allow your best, most authentic self to be expressed in ways which align with your deepest values. The world around you, the friends, colleagues, and family members with whom you interact daily, need your powerful impact, your best you to shine.
What is your difference?
What is yours to give?
What will encourage you to make it happen?
What is your best you?
