Practicing Serenity! Letting go of what was and embracing the NOW! ♥️

When we focus on healing ( traumas) ourselves from within then our light becomes a beacon of hope for others.♥️

Many of us are still living in survival mode. Unlearn these practices! Let go of your negative thinking. All of this will take time but with consistency it will get better. You will have your good days and your bad days but keep going. Because we all need to reach a point of tranquility in a world of chaos! ♥️

My husband bought this violin two years ago and it’s been sitting in his study. So, I figured if he’s not using it then I will! The violin is an extremely difficult instrument to play but I believe most string instruments are.

This year I have decided to rewire my brain and be completely open to trying new things and new experiences. The violin is one of those new experiences that I’m going to commit myself to learning. I think it takes about 10 years to completely master the violin. But there is no time like the present!

Have you ever noticed that you can sometimes talk yourself out of learning something new for fear of looking stupid? Well, your fear of looking stupid is holding you back!! A fixed mindset will never help you grow to your full potential.

It is best to step outside of your comfort zone and grow than to allow fear of failure to hold you back. When we only operate within what is comfortable for us we stop learning. How can you grow if you don’t fail first?

Failing is a part of life but it also helps us grow and to be teachable. A growth mindset allows us to embrace our failures and challenges us to operate outside of our comfort zones. Be open! Try new things! Learn something you never knew! BE TEACHABLE AND TEACH SOMEONE ELSE! Above all else operate with an open mind and heart!

Love,

Alecha 🙂

Healing my inner child…

When I was younger I needed to know that I was safe. I needed to hear that everything would be fine. I needed to be shown that I am worthy of love. I needed to feel protected as a child.

But instead I felt shame, guilt, ugliness, unworthiness, brokenness, abandonment, anger, frustration, loneliness and disappointment.

These emotions were suppressed feelings with a smile and being an overachiever to compensate for the pain that I felt.

Even though I achieved so much.. it felt like it wasn’t enough and that I was an imposter.

I couldn’t truly be happy for myself because I didn’t love myself and I didn’t know how too.

I met people that were great people in the beginning and then not so much towards the end and I kept attracting these same kinds of people.

Until one day I decided that it is time for me to heal. I needed to work on my traumas because it was affecting me physically and mentally. I was unhappy and suicidal.

I needed to know that the emotions that I was feeling was apart of my traumatizing childhood and my human experience.

My emotions wasn’t a bad thing but constantly being told that “I am too emotional” made me felt differently.

So, I here I am a month from 30 years old… trying to heal my innner child.

Because I want my inner child to know that she is loved, protected, beautiful, graceful, safe, whole, blessed, smart, worthy and blessed!

I love you Alecha! ♥️ Everything is going to be okay! ♥️

Show Up

♥️♥️♥️ First, my apologies to myself for not showing up as I should’ve. I promised myself that I would post on this page once a week. So, my apologies. 🙂🙂🙂

Have you ever just wanted to lie in bed and not show up to work or break those plans that you've made with friends? Simply, because you didn't feel like it. Let me be the first to say that I am guilty of calling off plans with friends and maybe telling a fib or two to get out of work because I didn't feel like it.

The older I get the more I understand the phrase "show up," sometimes showing up can be hard to do. How can you show up when you're feeling unmotivated, tired, burned out, and flustered? What do you do? Start by being honest with yourself. Being honest with yourself means telling yourself the truth about what is important and what is not.

We tend to get burned out and tired because we're not taking care of ourselves properly, not giving ourselves the proper nutrients, not exercising, not getting the proper amount of sleep, not giving ourselves enough time for ourselves, and because of this we tend to not show up for the ones who need us most or complete those necessary tasks that are important to us in our daily lives.

In order for us to show up for others fully and attentively, we must first show up for ourselves. Showing up for ourselves means being there for ourselves fully and completely. You can't help anyone, if you're empty and burned out. There's a saying "you can't love someone else until you love yourself first." Loving yourself means showing up for yourself and properly taking care of your mind, body, and soul. Show up for you, so that you can show up for what is important and those important to you.

Best Regards,
Alecha Irby ♥️

Be Wise

Have you ever heard the saying, "Be wise as serpents but harmless as doves?" What does this truly mean? My Mom has often told me this bible verse growing up; "Alecha you must be wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove." I never truly understood what it meant until I became older.

Why would I want to be wise as a serpent? When we think of serpents it's automatically associated with being evil but serpents are tremendously wise. Have you ever watched the movements of a snake? Snakes like to lay low and blend in into their environments and because of this, you wouldn't know that it is right next to you until it reveals itself.

Why should I be harmless as a dove? Doves aren't the smartest in the bunch. They often build their nests in unsafe places and sometimes even the nests are built poorly. Doves are considered the symbol of peace for a reason. This bird is known for its sweet disposition and calm temperament.

So, what does it mean to be wise but harmless? What does it mean to you? (comment below) Being wise means to lay low and understand your surroundings just as the snake does with its prey but have the assertiveness to run off your enemies. Being harmless as a dove means having this meek and gentle quality about yourself.

Have you ever heard the saying, "A gentle answer turns away anger?" So, in all that you do, do it with the wisdom of a serpent and the meekness of a dove. Above all else, do it with love in your heart.

Best Regards,
Alecha Irby

That Small Two-Letter Word

It sucks to be told no! No is this forbidden word that everyone hates to hear but you're going to hear it eventually because this word is apart of life. What's life without the word NO? How do we know what success really is if we haven't experienced the NOs? I know it is hard to believe and to even understand but the No's in life actually prepare us for our greatness and success.

Greatness and success aren't just given but it is actually earned through all of the NOs that you've had to experience. I want to be honest with you. I've allowed the fear of NO to stagnant my greatness. I've allowed it to break my confidence and almost my spirit. Hearing the word NO for me is like having this painful splinter in your foot and the only way for relief is squeezing out the splinter. So, no is the splinter in your foot and the only way you're going to experience relief is getting over the word no.

No, is just this small two-letter word that we overthink. So what, are we supposed to stop our entire lives because we were told NO? NO, we have to push through the NO. Just because you've gotten a no from someone about that position you wanted doesn't mean that the universe is saying no! Maybe, what the universe has in store for you is bigger than that position that you wanted, and that no was simply a yes into your calling to greatness. The no's in life are just minor bumps in the road we must overcome. Do not allow the fear of no to stop you from pursuing your dreams! Don't allow no to create this unnecessary fear inside of you. You are stronger and greater than the word NO! There is nothing or no one that can stop you, not even the small two-letter word NO!

You are greater than the word NO! You are GREATNESS and SUCCESS! I believe in you! The universe believes in you and I need you to believe in you.

Best Regards,

Alecha Irby

Hello everyone,

I've decided that I was going to give this page another try. Sometimes, we just want to give up and move on but what if at that very moment we're giving up on something major that could change our lives forever? What if we were an inch closer to our dreams but we decided to give up because we didn't see any results?

I am learning to enjoy the ride that the universe has bestowed upon me. So, what I don't see any results right now? Should I punish myself for it and not fully embrace the ride that I am on? No, I know for sure that where I am in this very moment is right where i should be. Even as you are reading this post, you are right where you need to be.

So, even as we learn to embrace the journey, embrace the journey with joy and gratitude. Don't swim against life's currents but learn to flow with it. Learn to be in love with the journey even when it doesn't make any sense and not flowing. Learn to embrace it! Let it go and let it flow!
