Some of you know if you are connected to me through Facebook or you are a Quantum Entrepreneur student of the very sad news of my dog being killed this week.

I don’t want to go into the details but she was attacked by another dog and died seconds later. She let out her last little gasp of breath as my boyfriend and I held her. I was in shock that this little spirit was taken away from me so quickly. I cried so much that day as she was so precious to me.

I rescued her when she was 2 years old and remember having tears of joy the night I got her. She was wrapped in a little baby blanket and slept the entire way home on my lap. It only took the next morning where we truly bonded – she licked my face…I knew that this was going to be a very special relationship.

Angel was the kind of dog that had so much energy in a tiny 6lb. body. Every morning she would wake me up so excited to start the day and of course feed her. Angel’s whole body would shake with anticipation as she ran downstairs to eat her food in literally two bites.

Right after she ate she would want to curl up on the couch under a soft, zebra stripped blanket and would make her own little burrow. She only surfaced when I would take a break from my work to go into the kitchen to eat something. I would often find her wagging her little tail in hopes of getting a morsel of food. Her favorite was frozen broccoli. Every time I got a bag of frozen vegetables she was what I call Pavloved because she would come out
of her burrow coma to get a piece every time without fail.
(see reference here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Pavlov).

At night she would make like a den animal and crawl under the covers to nestle close to me. My boyfriend, Crowe cherished her as if she was his too. I would see how much he took to her as he often would zip her up in his jacket when she was shivering. Even her pink diva sweater couldn’t stop him from loving this sweet little girl. Not only did he fall in love with me but he fell in love with my little chi.

Last year I had an idea to create Be Like Chi…it would be a series of videos and a simple idea to just be in the NOW and appreciate life just like she did. I had put it on hold but if you go here to see a video and a photo montage.
In time, I will revisit the idea with a new found chi love.

Check it out:

My message to you is don’t take anything for granted.
Live in the moment.
Leave the past behind if it doesn’t serve you.
Appreciate everything you have and everyone in your life furry and non furry.
Don’t sweat the small things…just be like Chi…live simple…live with love and joy in your heart because that’s how Angel would want it to be.
Please go on to my Facebook page and tell me what being like Chi means to you!

“HOW TO KEEP PASSION & COMMITMENT ALIVE!”
By Dr. Cindy Brown, “The Relationship Strategist.”

Our busy schedules and lives seem to take a toll on our ability to take care of ourselves, and to show up our best in our lives and relationships. I have found that the majority of people/couples I coach have one thing in common – they are spending more time on work and responsibilities and less time on self care and nurturing activities…ultimately this practice can have a detrimental affect on how you show up in your relationships. DO YOU want to know a tip about how to keep your passion and commitment alive?

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF FIRST!

1. Write down a list of activities that renew you and make you happy and rejuvenated. Some of my activities are: daily 30-40 minute naps, morning exercise, reading and/ or listening to motivational material,
morning spiritual ritual, rollerblading, shopping, meditating, sushi, massage, facials, nails, etc.

2. Take out your calendar and schedule at least one of the activities that you wrote down from your list above each day, add more if your schedule allows for it (yes, put it in your schedule just like an appointment with a client or doctor). Studies show people are more successful when they plan and schedule.

3. Continually monitor your daily schedule and activities in order for you to assess how it is impacting your life and relationships – positively or negatively. Adjust it as necessary. Make sure you plan everyday,
otherwise as you know your life takes over and everything else falls by the wayside!
Research shows that people who know and take care of themselves have better relationships and a better quality of life. Do yourself and your partner a favor, pay attention to yourself first and your life and relationships will be as great as you are feeling and being!

If you can’t do it on your own, I can show you how…
Remember: In order to be the person you have never been, In order to have the Life and Relationships you have never had, You must do what you have never done before: Give me a call 310-202-1610 or contact me so I can support you in having the best life you’ve ever had!
