Meaning of Conscious Living
Falling is not failure. Falling is simply part of the learning journey to scaling new heights.
Many of us are afraid of falling. Falling happens when we move from a higher to a lower level. It is usually accompanied with the feeling of having lost balance or control. Many of us perceive falling as a disease, a sign of vulnerability. Including myself.
Well, I am anticipating that I would be falling a lot in a couple of weeks. You see, I am booked on another year-end skiing trip. If you had been following my blog in previous years, you would know that downhill skiing is not my biggest strength. In fact, I have a lot of fears surrounding it.
“The only failure in life is giving up on yourself, your hopes and dreams.” #evelynlimcoach
What happens when you give up on yourself?
It can literally mean death. You are basically saying “no” to life. On the contrary, as long as you are in the game, you are still participating in the here and now. Of course, it does not mean that you have achieved worldly success but neither, have you failed.
If you have intense thoughts of giving up on yourself, know that you are not alone. I have walked the alleys of darkness a few times in my life and it is definitely not a place to dwell in. Over the past few years, as an energy healing practitioner , I have also discovered that there are many who are afflicted with depression at one point in their life.
Do know that depression over prolonged periods of time can lead to thoughts of suicide. Please seek professional help. Do not procrastinate. To get well, you definitely need love and support.
It is best to arrest the situation early when you feel as if you are draining of hope. Lean on the survival instinct that is innate and trust that you have got what it takes to figure a way out. You don’t give up yet! Bear in mind that everyone has a choice. We can choose to see the stars or we can choose the mud. The choice determines which thought we pay attention to.
“True Abundance is felt in the Richness of Being and experienced in the Fullness of Living.” #evelynlimcoach
It’s a myth that money can solve all our problems. It can’t. Money is simply a medium of exchange.
What Money Can Buy….or Can’t….
A house but not a home.
A bed but not sleep.
A clock but not time.
A book but not knowledge.
Food but not an appetite.
Medicine but not health.
Friends but not love.
Essence of True Abundance
The true essence of life is not found in material things but in the experience of well-being. Abundance is not about having but it is in the being.
To experience heaven on planet Earth, abundance has to be embodied in our physical existence. Otherwise, it will just remain a concept, a good-to-know.
Hence, it is why I wrote……
“True Abundance is felt in the Richness of Being and experienced in the Fullness of Living.”
Your comments please. What can money buy or can’t for you? What is your understanding about true abundance?
Abundance always,
P.S. If you have enjoyed the video or this post, please pass it on 🙂
How you do money is how you do everything. How you do everything is how you do money.
How you do money is your financial behavior. Your financial behavior is a function of how you have been responding in the world. Your response is found in your emotions and thoughts. From your external actions, you are likely to find a common pattern or a set of beliefs that underlie every aspect of your life.
Everything is inter-related. Thus, how you do anything is how you do everything. Your external world mirrors your internal one. Your inner world influences how you are showing up in the world. A process of self-inquiry will lead you to uncover what perceptions you have about the world and about yourself. You can dive in to find out what your core beliefs are, whether through a money situation, relationship situation or any other life situation.

While rummaging through my journal notebooks, I came upon what I had written two years ago. And so, I decided to post it…..
Can’t help but feel empty, wounded and discontented?
At some level, you have the awareness that there is something inherently missing; although you may not consciously know what your core issue is or where your real problem lies.
Even as you occupy your life with an endlessstream of activities, the hole inside remains.
The hole could be affecting every aspect of your life; from family, work, relationships, play etc.
And so it is that you have never been fully present.
You are there for everyone else…..EXCEPT YOURSELF.
Over time, the gaping hole manifests into deepresentment…and ultimately, a pervasive sense of unrealized potential and disempowerment.
“People don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do it.” Simon Sinek
Start with why is something that I have heard over and over again in leadership events. Almost every speaker dishes out this advice, to which I nodded dismissively. After all, as someone from the personal growth field, wouldn’t I already know why I am doing what I am doing?
Well, it finally took a book to get my attention on the finer details of Why Start with Why. I received a free copy of Start with Why by Simon Sinek by virtue of a winning ticket during the Silver Retreat in Utah that I was in last week. As I turn its pages during my 25-hour journey back to Singapore, I was intrigued.
“Visioning is the practice of visualisation with belief, focus and consistency.”
It has been a long time since I shared about visioning in a blog post. Well, I had been working hard at mine. One of my travel dreams is finally coming true! It’s been a long wait.
I am flying to Salt Lake City in the U.S. to visit a lavender farm in a few days’ time. The best part is that the air flight from Singapore and accommodation at a luxury hotel in the city for my stay are completely free! I will also be attending leadership training workshops organised for attendees to the Silver Retreat as well as having time to explore the city. Hurray!!
Have you been following my 30-Day September Gratitude Challenge over on my Facebook page here?
It’s already Day 12 and I am still going strong! Yayyyyy!!
Here’s a copy of the day’s posting to my September Gratitude Challenge on my Facebook Page…
[Day 12/30 of September Gratitude Challenge]
Today, I’d like to thank Mother Gaia. We are blessed by her beauty, color, diversity and abundance. By her grace, we are able to heal, restore, rebalance and rejuvenate. She has offered us waterfalls, mountains, rivers, lakes, forests and beautiful lands. She is a Mother to all creatures big and small..including the dancing fairies in the garden, the unicorns in the deep forests and other mysterious hidden animals.
She has an open invitation for us to stay grounded, in the here and now. We are reminded that while we long to soar, we will always need a place to call home. Mother Gaia offers a warm embrace for the playground of our dreams; while we are alive, over many lifetimes and for generations to come. Thank you <3
Why Bother with a Gratitude Challenge
I have to admit that I was previously reluctant to join all 30-day or whatever-the-period-is type of challenges. My resistance came from an unwillingness to commit. I would feel as if I am adding more to-do items to my already packed schedule and it just wouldn’t do. So, my preference is to do any challenge – quietly at best. Obviously, I did not create enough focused energies on these initiatives.
However, this time round, I decided that a gratitude challenge is important enough. I would like to work on shifting my vibes even more, just by the mere fact of making my challenge public. Energy flows where focused attention goes, not forgetting. September is another awfully busy month but there is no better time to start for something like expressions of gratitude and appreciation.
And so far, so good 🙂
Half a month may be over but anyone can still join me on the Gratitude Challenge. Simply post under the day’s thread on my Facebook page. Make a commitment by putting this to-do-item on your schedule. What I found out is that if a task does not get scheduled, there is a great chance that it will not be done.

Emotional causes to skin problems can be something that you want to look into, if your issues are persistent. While using steroids may alleviate your itch-scratch-itch symptoms, they are not cures. Also, long time reliance on drug medications can result in a “thinning” of your skin layer.
I know enough about dealing with skin healing issues myself. After all, I have had bad eczema outbreaks for many years until a few years ago. Recently, from working with clients, I noticed that there is a distinct relationship between those who are particularly energetically sensitive at the soul-level with also having a skin problem.
Skin disorders are like no other. Just as stress can result in skin problems, skin disorders can also cause tremendous stress. In cases of severe skin issues, those afflicted can become depressed. While it seems shallow, let’s admit that appearances do have an impact on first impressions. It can also affect our ability to find a mate, land that all-important interview or secure our next promotion.
Resolving accumulated negative emotions can prevent cancer or may even reduce its effects. Cancer invokes a lot of fear. It happens when the cells in your body divide in a way that is out of control. Many cancers form tumors, some of which can become life-threatening. Hence, it helps to understand early on what the emotional reasons behind it are. By knowing and understanding these factors, we can take preventative measures for cancer.
I’d like to reiterate that I am not a medical doctor nor profess to be an expert. However, I am happy to share the little that I know, so that those of you who are new to the information can have a starting point to finding out more.
