Focus on the positive...

Inviato il 6 Febbraio 2025

and you'll get more of that.

Is your cup half full or half empty?

I know in this wonderful world of chaos, it may be difficult to focus on the bright side, but that is just what we must do. We have to remain hopeful that everything is working out for our highest and best, and all in the right timing. Sometimes we forget all that we have accomplished in this life and get trapped in repeating the stories of our past, or complaining about negative experience we've had, or what we are seeing on the news, but that literally gets us nowhere. By focusing on the good things that are happening (or that have happened in your life up to this point), you tend to attract more things to be grateful for. However, when you spin in the negative, that is what tends to keep showing up for you- cause that is where your focus lies. I'm not saying it is easy, but it is more or less a practice of catching yourself. To only speak positively and to stop speaking negatively about people, places, or things. Just stop. Take a deep breath. Exhale. And maybe have a glass of water. If you or someone you know needs help with shifting their mindset to a more positive way of being, consider scheduling a session with me or working with me long term.

The Revolutionary Cappello

Depends on which way you tilt it, but the Revolutionary Cappello (hat in Italian) is the newest addition to The Art of Style. Pre order yours now and add a TAOS Fascinator to attach to it- or get all three colors just to switch things up. In transformative fashion, it can be worn frontwards, backwards, side to side, or at an angle. It is all a matter of perspective and style. The right accessory can be a game changer for your confidence and outfit of the day (just as much as the right attitude).

The Substitute & The Substitute Society

The Substitute can help you stay focused, not only emotionally, but mentally, and physically too. When you breathe consciously, you can channel your energy with intention. You can breathe into the pain and push it out as the breath leaves your body. You can inhale a breath of fresh air to take a moment to reflect before speaking, and exhale to relieve the stress of the situation. Or, when you feel like you need to calm your nerves, taking a long concentrated breath can take the edge off. Breathing relaxes your nervous system, which is tied to all of your other systems. Try something new and see how it feels. Become a member of The Substitute Society and support the mission of an alternative lifestyle, one that allows you to create the life of your dreams through conscious creation, and curing cancer. The Substitute Society is a nonprofit that helps people raise their levels of awareness and consciousness through breathing. It is the silent revolution of peace and love. Just breathe.

Intimate Conversations with Lady Kendra

Join me every Monday at 21 CET on Instagram Live as I talk about life and such. This is my way to have a conversation with the world about some subjects that may be taboo or touchy. For me, there is no such thing. Please feel free to leave a comment or ask a question. This week I talked about optimism, and next week I will discuss connection. Be a part of the conversation in person from 19-21 at The Art of Style and follow the journey @kendraleonard... Indulge in yourself.

Mindfulness & Movement

I also invite you to join me every Wednesday morning from 9-11 am as I share my mediation and yoga practice with the community. This is a safe space where all are welcome. No experience is required. For February, the focus is on the sacral chakra. This energy center governs the water element inside of you, all that is fluid. It relates to fun, freedom, creativity, flexibility, sex, pleasure, and money. Traumatic experiences, such as emotional abuse, neglect, or sexual trauma, can disrupt the flow of energy in the sacral chakra, leading to blockages and imbalances in this area. Symptoms of a blocked sacral chakra can include detachment, isolation, anxiety, loneliness, low libido, or a lack of creative inspiration. Come with an open heart and mind, and feel your body unwind. Love yourself.
