Lately I’ve been working on stepping into my truth. And I mean a few things when I say this.

First, I think about how I’m stepping into my divine truth. My divine purpose for being on this earth. I generally know what my purpose is, but I feel overwhelmed by the number of options I have to go about fulfilling this purpose. I have so many ideas, and get ridiculously energized by the thought of these ideas, but sometimes I get all up in my own head. Lately I’ve been asking God to continue revealing to me his plan and setting this as my intention before my meditations.

Yesterday I flew back to Michigan from Portland, Oregon. On my way to Denver from Portland, I had an interaction with a boy who had down syndrome and I can’t stop thinking about our time together.

To top it off, I was meditating this afternoon and the words “Remember Me” kept coming into my head.

Here’s what happened and why I can’t get these words off my mind.

Nature speaks to me.

You might be thinking, “Yeahhh, ok, Libby. Now you’re losing it.”

Hear me out.

As I spend more time in nature, taking mindful walks or meditating, I’ve realized nature speaks to me.

It’s been 14 days since I started my Ayurvedic journey, so I wanted to share an update on how I’m feeling.

Today I woke up feeling really good!

The first week was a bit rough. I realized about a week in that one of the products I was taking has milk (I have a dairy intolerance). Then I realized the tonic I was taking has gluten (there is barley and I have a gluten intolerance), so I stopped taking these. It was totally my fault for not looking at the ingredients more closely, but could explain why my symptoms got worse the first few days. After about 3 days of taking these out, I noticed a difference in my bloating - though I was still experiencing it a little.

I was recently asked in a workshop why I decided to quit my job and start my own business versus building mindfulness training programs for my employer.

My answer: “My heart told me to, so I did.”

And that’s the truth. I don’t have any other explanation.

Spirit told me I was going to be a healer. God nudged me to take a leap of faith.

The feeling was so strong and the voice so loud, I knew there was no other option. It was time to get out of my comfort zone.

I’m sitting here on my computer not really knowing how to start this blog post, but I keep telling myself to just write. Just write.

I’m wanting to share with you some things I’m experiencing, but struggling as to how to say everything I want to say in a precise manner. So if this post turns out a little all over the place, well, this is why :)

I found out this week that September is Self Improvement Month, so this naturally has me reflecting on my own personal growth journey the past several years.

In the spirit of celebrating this random “national observance” (is that what we call this?), I figured I would give you some nice, juicy details about my journey and get vulnerable today. Because you see, I was never someone who spent any money on my own personal growth until I hit rock bottom, and I don’t want you to make the same mistake.

I started a cleanse yesterday! A much needed cleanse.

And I’m excited about it because I’m ready to load my body up with nutrients to get it back on track. I’ve been feeling “heavier” than I usually do, my energy levels are low and I haven’t been sleeping well, so I know it’s time to pump my body with some colorful goodness.

These last 8 months of traveling have taught me some important lessons, but the one I’m reflecting on today is the idea that I (we) can still follow a food plan and eat healthy while traveling.

I love listening to music, and I love dancing to it even more. If you’ve been to a wedding with me, you’re bound to have seen me tearing it up on the dance floor. Literally.

Just to give you an idea of what I mean by “tearing it up.” Here are some photos of what I look like when I’m really really really feelin’ a song. These are from my friend’s wedding in Chicago this past June.

I’ve been thinking a lot about progression and regression lately and how we all have, and need (yes, need), both of these cycles in our lives. I know we would (most likely) prefer to be living what I call the “high life” everyday, but well, I think we all know this is not always the case.

For me, the "high life" is a mindset of feeling high on life (and not with the help of drugs or Miller beer!). It’s a feeling you get when you’re in a period of growth. When you experience pure joy. When you're in the flow of life, so you aren’t struggling to get things done. And life doesn’t seem to have limits or boundaries. You might be constantly satisfied in your daily life because everything seems to be working in your favor. In these moments, you can’t help but feel anything but high on life. This is the “high life.”

I don’t know about you, but the full moon had me like woo on the 27th. I wanted to do something special for this full moon, and I had never done a full moon ceremony before, so I figured why the heck not. I’m in Greece and felt like doing something special to honor this portion of my journey and growth. So I spent a portion of the day gathering the things I needed: sage, a lighter, candle and notebook.

Yesterday I was on my way from Galissas to Ermoupolis and was chatting it up with my taxi driver. I learned that his name was George, he was 50, had two boys, had lived in a little town outside of Ermoupolis all his life, had 30 olive trees, made his own olive oil and he even told me how to make olive oil. We had a wonderful time chatting, but this is neither here nor there.​​​​​​​

Here is the important part. During our conversation I asked him what his favorite thing to do on the island was. I figured he was a local and had lived here all his life, he should know. His response was lovely.

I’ve been participating in Deepak and Oprah’s 21 day meditation series about the energy of attraction and manifesting our best life. Today is day 4 and I’m loving the series thus far!

The other day a friend saw my Instagram Story about day 2’s centering thought, my desires make me feel alive. He followed up by asking what 3 of my desires are.

“Very interesting question,” I thought to myself.

Words can’t fully express the emotions I felt this week when we launched Light as a Feather. It has been a long time coming and months in the making, so it felt surreal, as if it wasn’t actually happening. I felt like I was still asleep in a dream state because I couldn’t believe I, Libby Rapin, was starting an online radio show.
