Reality isn't fixed -- you just think it is

I’ve been experimenting with something that feels like bending reality lately.



So obviously, I HAD to tell you about it.



Quantum physics says particles exist in every possible state until we observe them. That blows my brain! Multiple realities are out there in front of us at once, but we only ever experience the one we’re tuned into. Attention, focus, even the energy you put into your day is the dial that matches you to one version of life over another.

I’ve started testing this in small, ridiculously specific ways. When I slow down a hip hinge and feel my glutes firing totally differently, it changes how my whole workout feels. When I really notice my posture at my desk, soften my face, lower my shoulders, open my chest, the next hour flows ... differently!



My sleep feels more restorative when I honor the body’s rhythm instead of racing past it. If I pay attention to how my first sip of coffee actually tastes, it changes the way the morning lands. Every little nudge in my own awareness is tuning me to a different reality -- one that apparently already exists and is just waiting for me to match it.


I’ve also been experimenting with applying this to business opportunities. When I tune my focus and energy toward a specific project or connection, I start noticing doors I didn’t see before — emails that get answered, calls that click differently, ideas that fit better, offers coming through — all aligning with the version of success I’m matching to that day.

I've also been deep-diving on optimism and loving the interaction between these two. Most people think optimism is smiles and denial of stress. But, it's really this stubborn, disciplined act of training attention and energy toward a version of our life that feels alive, strong, and awake. I do love the woo, but biology backs this up too ... the Reticular Activating System, our brain’s filter for what we notice and focus on, is actually shaping what we see, feel, and experience. It's the reason we buy a bright blue Jeep and then start seeing bright blue Jeeps EVERYwhere. Or, we decide so-and-so must hate us and now everything they say and do seems to back that up.




I’m obsessed with tracking these tiny shifts because they are reshaping everything — energy levels, excitement, boldness, mindset, how I feel in my own skin. It's this glorious experiment that's spiritual, physics, biology, and human focus all mixing together in ways I can see, feel, and measure. It's free, always around, and ours for the taking.



There could be a placebo effect overlapping here as well, but hey, I'm ok with that!


Wanna join me? Start with one minute today ... notice a thought that drags your energy down and reframe it, just for that minute. Watch how it ripples. Because your reality is always listening and adjusting.




Stay wild + well,
Tara

Taking responsibility so you are EMPOWERED to transform

If you are the 'problem', then you also get to be the solution.


And let me be really clear: I am not talking about beating yourself up here!


But, if you can start to look past your (very real) excuses and see just your role in getting to where you're at right now, then you'll also be able to feel empowered to change what you want to.


You see, if you had NO control in getting here, how can you possibly believe that you will have any control in getting there?



Check out my latest Workshop Wednesday video all about this!



And by the way, my ridiculous straight-out-of-the-shower-hot-and humid-crazy-updo hairstyle apparently ruffled someone's feathers on Facebook. Hop on over to my Facebook page if you want to check out what was said and my response.



Here's what's important though: there will always be trolls - or people that aren't supporting you or excuses or people that want to dull your shine. And if you have big goals like I do…you have to ignore it or use it to fuel you. I'm not going to stop showing up on live video to deliver messages of health, longevity, self love, and empowerment just because my hair looks silly that day….or I have no makeup on….or I'm in my pajamas. ;-) I'm showing up - just as I am - no matter what. My BIG goal in starting this business is to help EVERYONE that I can no matter what. If we can't work together one-on-one or in a group setting, then I hope to provide enough information and inspiration so that you can make miracles happen on your own. And if I had to get all glammed up to share my message, it wouldn't happen as often. And it wouldn't help as much. And it would be FAKE because I'd be pretending to be polished all the time when I am…not! :-) 



I've done polished. I've checked the boxes on uniforms, and business casual, and school reports with perfect reference pages. I've done policies, procedures, and scripts at the hospital as a nurse. I've had to encourage meds and interventions when I knew in my heart that my patient needed more of my time instead. Less charting, less narcotics, more heart. I'm not against all meds at all! I'm very grateful for the types of medical services we are lucky enough to have access to. But, sometimes we need humanity first and foremost.



So, here I am showing up outside of the lines. I say "um" a lot. I record live videos in my pajamas if it's nighttime (or early evening sometimes….let's be real) and I have something to share that might help someone.



My priority just wasn't my hair that day - nor is it ever, really. ;-)



I hope you feel comfortable being you despite whatever hurdles are thrown your way.



In good health,
Tara

Show me someone who takes ownership of their current health and I'll show you a person ready for an awesome transformation! P.S. Yes, my hair is silly here. No, I don't care because it doesn't effect my message. YES, I had a troll make a ridiculous comment on my FB Live video about my hair.


Wrapping up 2018 with a WIN

October is HERE!

Isn’t that bananas?! I can’t believe we have entered the final 3 months of the year…the last 90 days…the 4th quarter…

Anywho, here’s what’s awesome about that: YOU get to decide how you want to end 2018. YOU get to choose to hold your head up and see this year out with tons of momentum going into the New Year. The holidays certainly bring up some unique hurdles and traditions, but it never has to mean that they have control over you. Never. YOU are always the one in control.

If you’ve been feeling like you want to focus on something - a goal - to wrap up the year and feel accomplished, then this video is perfect for you. We get into the 7 steps you need to choose what to focus on.

HOW do you want to feel on December 31st as you’re counting down 10-9-8-7…?

HOW do you want to show up for yourself?

HOW do you want your energy, your strength, your immune system, your confidence, your patience, and your life to look? Give yourself the edge this year and COMMIT to something.

It’s your journey. What will you choose?

In good health,

Tara
