MY MIND & HEART ARE OPEN TO NEW PATHS & NEW BLESSINGS.

I’ve been carrying a heavy weight around with me this past year - FAILURE. And then DISAPPOINTMENT after DISAPPOINTMENT kept piling on top of me this last month. I didn’t have time to process my feelings before the next weight fell on top of me. The past couple of weeks I’ve been feeling DEPRESSED and HOPELESS, so I scheduled some quiet time today to process my negative thoughts and feelings.

I started my Aroma Freedom Technique (AFT) session with a goal in mind. When I thought about my goal, the negative thoughts that came up were: “Everything I do fails.” “It wasn’t just that they were unsupportive, but they were actually willfully harmful.” “So far, my life has been largely disappointing and full of loss.” “Good things don’t happen to me.” The feelings that these elicited were: POWERLESS, FURIOUS, and SAD. I sat with each feeling one at a time and felt it in my body. As I did, I breathed through that feeling with a specific essential oil blend.

I felt a shift. My body started to soften, and my emotions calmed down. Since my “hijacked amygdala” was calming, I could now hear my intuition speak to me. I didn’t just do things for no purpose. I genuinely wanted to help people. I made my plans a matter of prayer. I worked hard and didn’t give up. When I ran into a problem, I found a way around it and learned from it. I overcame my limiting beliefs. But were those really obstacles to overcome or were they closed doors? (Galatians 16:6-10).

I believe that those are now closed doors - a “no” to my prayers or at least a “not now”. I needed this AFT session to process my negative thoughts and really sit with and feel my negative feelings. This is going to allow my heart to soften and be open.

I finally crafted the above affirmation, said it in my heart-centered power pose, and breathed in a grounding essential oil blend.

I’m feeling at peace now. I look forward to studying my next certification course: Aromatics & Mental Health, reading books that grow my brain & heal my soul, and to love & care for my little family.

I CONTINUE TO LEARN.

First, I studied and was certified as an Aroma Freedom Technique practitioner. The next year, I studied and became a certified Aromatherapist. Now, I’m just starting my newest certification course: Aromatics and Mental Health.

I’m excited to learn new things, help myself and family, and use this new information in my practice.

Pretty exciting, huh?

THE SOUND OF A WILD SNAIL EATING
- by Elisabeth Tova Bailey

A truly beautiful book. The Huffington Post describes it as “an exquisite meditation on the restorative connection between nature and humans.”

Bailey contracts an illness and becomes bedridden. A friend visits and brings her a pot of freshly dug up violets and puts a common woodland snail in it because she thought she “might enjoy it”.

Bailey observes the snail and grows attached to it. Through the pages of the book, Bailey juxtaposes her life with chronic illness to that of this snail. Her comparisons are thought provoking, and she comes to the conclusion that just as the tiny snail’s life mattered, so did hers.

Simply beautiful. I highly recommend it.

I HAVEN’T BEEN ENTIRELY HONEST WITH YOU
- by Miranda Hart

This is another phenomenal book that I’m proud to say that I’ve read and is in my permanent library. I gladly give it five stars and make no apology for my thoughts and opinions.

This book resonated with me from the very beginning. We had similar symptoms, misdiagnoses, and length of time undiagnosed. We both experienced a traumatic crash to our health, and we shared the same diagnosis - LYME DISEASE (p. 107).

The similarities didn’t end there. After seeing that conventional medicine hadn’t changed her situation, Miranda chose to embrace an holistic approach. She shares what she’s learned, researched, and experienced with her reader chums. You can definitely feel her love, care, and humility throughout her journey and the pages of the book.

Everybody has a story, and everybody deserves to have their story told.

What happens when you hit rock bottom? You let go and surrender.

What happens when you stop fighting your body? “What if the only way out was to see what I might learn by facing the mystery of all I was feeling head-on?”

Each chapter contains treasures she picks up, patterns she smashes, and a watchword (which are quite reminiscent of the Fruitage of God’s Spirit - Galatians 5:22,23).

Some of the helpful techniques that Miranda uses are: feeling & processing emotions, journaling, dismantling negative thoughts with The Five Questions, laughter, nature, play, The Five Whys, and so much more.

This book doesn’t just speak to the chronically ill. Miranda’s lessons might just help all of us who’ve become so stressed and disconnected from ourselves, so that we might listen to the whispers of our minds & bodies before we ultimately crash. There’s real value in that!

Thank you, Miranda, for sharing your experience. I know I’m not alone, and now others who desire might possibly understand what I endure.

Have you read this book? What did you think? Let’s discuss it in the comments below.

“Those of us with illnesses are the holders of the silent fears of those with good health.”

- from The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating

I live among women who were raised to be tough and independent. You never show your weaknesses and your feelings. They are utterly repulsed by me. I’m dependent on my husband for money and caregiving. I’m physically ill and show my emotions, two inexcusable weaknesses.

They’ve seen my decline in the last 33 years - from when I worked, volunteered full-time, and went to university to becoming virtually homebound.

They can’t possibly believe that a little tick bite when I was volunteering away from home could possibly cause all this pain and varied symptoms. It would then mean that they too could contract something or have an accident, and they too could become debilitated and disabled. It’s so much better to believe that my chronic illnesses are from a personal and spiritual deficiency. That way it explains things in a neat and tidy way, and they are safe and sound (in their minds). However, we all know that anyone can wake up one day and join the club. But, for the moment, let’s let them delude themselves and believe that my chronic illnesses are as a result of a moral, physical, and spiritual failing. I deserve it. It’s my fault. That’s ok, if it makes you feel better.

What do you think of this quote? Have you experienced something similar? Please, share it in the comments.

“HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYS TO THE CONGREGATION” - Revelation 3:22

I was able to watch a recording of this autumn’s Circuit Assembly this morning. My little buddy sat with me and encouraged me for all my effort. I’m seriously blessed with this kind-hearted little girl. 👧🏻

The Assembly was based on the Bible book of Revelation chapters 3 and 4. Here are some of the points I took note of, enjoyed, and am going to work on applying in my life.

• To be Happy - read Bible with meaning and apply right away. (Rev. 1:3)
• Rekindle love for Jehovah & the Bible’s truth I had at first.
• Serve Jehovah out of right motives - love for God & neighbor (Mark 12:29,30).
• List the times Jehovah was kind and merciful to me.
• Delight in God’s Word.
• Determine to hold fast to my relationship with Jehovah.
• Need to wake up and focus on strengthening my relationship with Jehovah now.
• Keep holding fast to what I have - privileges of Theocratic Service. Pray to Jehovah to open doors.
• Be zealous. Lead a balanced life focused on spiritual pursuits.
• Set personal goals for myself & Poppy. It invites Jehovah to bless my family.

Did you have your Circuit Assembly, yet? How much did you enjoy it? ❤️❤️❤️

When someone helps you and they are struggling too, that’s not help. That’s love.

That’s me. I’m that someone. I love you! ❤️

THE BEST MOMENTS OF 2025

I shan’t bombard social media with a trending reel of my best moments of 2025. Out of 365 days, I was only able to get out of the house and enjoy four moments.These were epic moments, though, years in the making. I’m extremely grateful to have been able to: attend the Annual Observance of Jesus’ Death, the 1st KMS session open to wives, taking Poppy to the Art Institute of Chicago for our 31st anniversary, and taking Poppy to Maggie Daley Park for the day.

The rest of the year, I breathed and survived. That’s it.

I hope your year had some happy memories and small victories.

Love, Eva Lynne 🤗😘🤪
