Protecting Spiritual Facebook Groups & Businesses from Censorship

Posted on November 4, 2020September 28, 2021 by Caylene

I am writing this page for two reasons. The first reason is because I know several Spiritual Groups on Facebook that are concerned about being deleted. Mostly because of members posting flagged content or content that has been removed by “fact checkers”. And secondly, because many users of social media are being targeted, shadow banned, or removed from Facebook all together. This is mostly due to the Disinformation Campaigns that have dramatically affected us all, whether we realize it or not.

I do not intend fo this to be a triggering post, but an educational and thoughtful one. For both users, moderators, and members of Facebook.

In this post, I will defend the Spiritual Groups from such targeted removal by giving you ideas and tools to use to protect your group. I am encouraging moderators and group creators to update their page and description with accurate and relevant information. Finally, by making sure that you know exactly what the policy of the platform you are using is. So that you – as a creator and moderator or user – can actually moderate correctly for your members, and continue to add value to their lives for years to come.

I hope to give further understanding of censorship. Why it happens, and what you can do to keep yourself safe from disinformation. But above all, to further the understanding of Technology, Political Science, your rights of Free Speech, and Spiritual Freedoms.

Why You Self Sabotage & How You Can Better Establish Your Identity

Posted on October 5, 2019October 1, 2021 by Caylene

Today I want to talk about Sabotage and how we can release ourselves from being bound and kept locked up within our own minds, bodies, and fragmented shadow self. Our minds are plastic and we are prone to self-sabotage, and revenge against others we have judgments upon.

Help Yourself Lighten the Load of a Heavy Heart

Posted on October 3, 2019January 13, 2020 by Caylene

Every heavy heart has a fear of being abandoned or left behind. These are related to issues of abuse of any kind, including neglect. Every day we see relationships come together and fall apart, and this creates a lot of guard, resentment, and suppressed emotions. I am suggesting that Rose Quartz, Garnet, and Lavender Essential Oil may be able to help you heal from neglect, abuse, or other trauma.

Forgiveness Causes Emotional Healing

Posted on July 15, 2019November 16, 2020 by Caylene

Dear Hugin and Munin,

During my self-healing journey, I have been on a mission to purge my life of everything that no longer serves a purpose in my future. I have been restoring my house and routines into order. As well as my mental space. This, my friends, was the hard part.

A new kind of emotional awareness of my mental patterns started to take place. As I worked with my body’s energies, I started to really notice in my meditations where exactly where in my body, that I was hurting. When I drop into my own little world of calm and connected, I scan my body. I notice the little uncomfortable places, my posture, the pull of gravity, and any soreness. Some of these areas, I note to address later note. Others, I know are pains and weaknesses I have had for a very long time.

I think about and remember so much about my life. From the beginning, now and into the future even in some moments. I can’t say how much control I have of my thoughts, although I have become more mindful about observing them. I have begun to train and rewire my brain with conscious effort.

Why is that?

A Self Care Lesson In Time Travel

Posted on June 18, 2019October 1, 2021 by Caylene

Dear Hugin & Munin,

I believe anyone can go back in time and review what has been done, or even fix it. Recently I have done some research on energetic cords between us all. What is it about us that wants so badly to connect? And what’s worse, what about us aches so badly that we must cut out these connections? What acts are so terrible to cause such a divide when such a beautiful connection between each other, can be mended!

When I speak of time travel, I mean your own timeline of your life as it cascades behind you. When you think about a person, place or thing in a moment/memory of your past: You cause a ripple effect within your timeline of memory. If you are receptive to these ripples, you can access the memories of your timeline. When you interact, watch, or play these memories individually you can feel the way you feel within that memory. This allows you to transcend that into your current reality. When you imprint new thoughts and intentions (or the lesson you have learned from this memory in particular), then you send an energetic message to that memory in response. As this interaction takes place, you are immediately affected because of any changes in that timeline you made.

This can be done negatively of course, because this is proof in itself that the truth is what you make it. That by lying to yourself, you lie to the memory. Which in turn lies to you, and causes you to only delve deeper and farther away from the original memory. Which degrades it, and makes it clouded in thoughts and emotions from feeling this so many times. These kinds of repeatedly watched interactions within can cause traumatic energy to become bond up. And this is where posts like these come in, to explain what happens then. It’s no good guys. Trapping negative emotions is not what is “supposed” to happen.

10 Reasons Why I Love Being A Blog Mom

Posted on October 6, 2018September 28, 2021 by Caylene

Here’s a top ten list of reasons why I love being a blog mom. A short list, but a meaningful one! As both being a mother and a blogger, are a dream come for me. I’m REALLY excited about my blogging and recent experiences online lately. SO much going on for me being a blog mom!

1 || The most obvious reason I love being a blogging mom is that I get to stay home with my daughter every day!

2 || I am my own boss!

3 || I choose when I work and when I don’t [when motherhood allows] !

4 || I get to be my baby’s role model, instead of hiring childcare!

5 || I get to share my thoughts, best advice, and helpful knowledge to those who can relate!

6 || I write about loving life, so it constantly reminds me how much I really do love my life!

7 || I get to do all the things I love to do like work on websites, help other bloggers, and write/type!

8 || I’m busy, but the blogging community is awesome to interact with and provides this busy mama some kind of social life!

9 || I get to take pictures and work on graphics and stuff, I dig it!

10 || I’m constantly learning more about blogging and marketing and I love that I can learn so much without having to go to college and spend thousands!!!

It’s a short list, I know.

But this is a really meaningful list!

I have a lot of freedom as a blogger. It’s not a career I need to be ashamed of, in fact, I can actively share my creations with great pride. And I don’t have to feel bad about pushing sales and gaining clients. All I do to gain income is super passive. And the service bloggers like me provide is simply resources to help others. I don’t feel bad about recommending services and products that I love. It feels great!

So this is where I encourage you to sign up for my newsletter and follow the blog. Why?

I want to help you get started in blogging. And to learn how much you can LOVE your LIFE, one day at a time, by blogging about your passion.

I want to quickly jump back to that last reason I love blogging, number 10…

Everything I’ve learned about blogging has been “self-taught”. I’ve spent countless hours, and days of my life, learning about blogging, marketing, social media, management, editorial calendars, SEO, writing skills. And I’ve invested very little money into an education. And there is still SO MUCH to learn. This is an ever-changing world of technology and it all moves SO FAST. Just about the time that I think I get ahead in knowledge and proficiency. A new version of Google, or social media changes, or SEO happen overnight it seems, and there’s a whole new set of rules and guides to follow and learn about.

But I will never have any large college debt. I will never have that level of stress by needing to constantly continue my education by paying a LOT of money for it.

Blogging is something I can do, I can learn. And there’s always going to be something new to get educated about, which is exciting!

And let me just say that the price tag on getting educated about Blogging is REALLY affordable. Sometimes it’s REALLY worthwhile to get that education while you can, at the best price possible.

Guys, I’m so excited to be hitting publish on this post right now. It feels so good! It’s not what I had planned for today. But I can’t help it, I’m really excited about being a blogger. And I feel so responsible to you, in telling you why I love being a blog mom!

What To Do When Your Friends Are Making Bad Life Choices

Posted on August 20, 2018December 28, 2019 by Caylene

We all make mistakes, sure. But sometimes there are people in our lives that are making bad life choices. So what can we do as their friend to influence them?

I wrote a previous post about how to “tolerate people”. I recommend checking that out first to ensure we’re all on the same page here because it’s important to understand how we got to this serious question I’m about to tackle. It’s called How I Tolerate People and Their “Issues” (opens in new window for you).

Okay, so you tolerate your friends and you expect them to have some issues. But there is a limit, there’s always a limit guys. It’s one thing to agree to disagree and walk away. It’s another to watch someone else make serious mistakes. Especially someone you care about and are close to.

Where is the limit? Personal boundaries can vary widely from person to person. Sometimes you find those with short fuses and some with long ones. I have a seriously long fuse guys, it takes a lot to get me upset and I tolerate a lot before I get to a point of being upset. So my limits on those around me, are pretty far stretched because of… Well, you’ve read the previous post.

CJ’s 4-5 Month Journey [Milestones Update]

Posted on July 9, 2018September 28, 2021 by Caylene

The 4-5 months old journey has been more challenging as she’s not quite a newborn anymore. She’s growing fast and becoming her own little, opinioned being. Full of wiggles and giggles, this optimistic child is one amazing kid. I’ll list her milestone achievements, talk about sleeping, feeding and personality developments.

This is more for our remembrance of these times than it is an educational post. I hope some mamas can find it useful as a way to embrace what is to come. Not to toot my own horn, but CJ is ahead of the curve in most development categories. She is doing some of what isn’t expected until 6, 7 and 8 months old. So, don’t be discouraged if your little isn’t hitting all of these…

Choosing To Remain In Love, Everyday

Posted on June 18, 2018September 28, 2021 by Caylene

I’m going to take a shot here and admit what I truly think is a key factor to being in a happy, long-term relationship with any partner. Put simply, I believe that love is a choice and that you must consciously choose to remain in love.

That’s right, you read correctly.
You choose to remain in love, each and every day.

There’s something to be said about your brain when you are in love.

When you are in love with someone, you produce lovely peptides that grant you chemical boosts of love hormones and other chemical reactions. You also may experience pleasant emotions by being near or with your partner. If you’re physically “in love” (aka addicted) to your partner, then you will believe instinctually that you are in love. This may sound silly, but do you really believe that you’re in love?

If you believe that you are in love emotionally, physically and mentally then maybe you can understand that this was a choice after all. You chose to allow yourself to fall in love with someone. There’s a level of the surrender of Will to being in love, and unknown and uncontrolled factor to this falling into love with someone. Put simply, there are people you cannot help but love.

That “I like him/her” feeling you got right from the start, your attraction to them physically and all that jazz. Yes, that’s all stuff you can’t help. But at some point you chose to continue to like them, to advance on your level of attraction with them and to dance with them to that jazz. If you ask me, the chemistry between beings does not change over time. This is a subconscious physical effect that people of the right magnetism has on you. But what you can do is consciously choose how you react to them.

So they key here is to realize that, keeping a relationship fresh takes conscious effort. A continuous choice of surrendering your will to the person you commit your love to. You do have to keep choosing to remain in love.

It sounds crazy like it’s a chore to stay in a state of love but honestly, it is… You must consciously continue to choose love.

Top 10 Tips to Maintain Long Term Friendship

Posted on May 14, 2018December 28, 2019 by Caylene

Here are my top ten tips on how to maintain long-term friendship. Some things are simple with friends and some things are not. Understanding how you like to be treated can go a long way in being a good friend to those you care about the most. These are things that I try to do consistently for my friends. I have found that those in my life that I consider my friends too, do some or most of these things for me in return. It’s nice to make people feel comfortable. But it’s so much better if you can make your closest friends feel loved and appreciated.
