Channel Your Energy Properly

positvity, Mom, Health, OprahFelicia LaTourComment

One thing I want to say  before I get into this topic is , I SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE AND EXPERIENCE ONLY .  I have to constantly practice what I speak as well as look for new ways to grow as a better human being every day . That comes with discipline and the willingness to learn regularly . When you do things from your soul , they don't just happen over night . You have to listen very carefully to your spirit as well as your gut intuition . That brings me to my next point .  

Channeling your energy properly - 

When I began my journey of  consciousness , I was very very afraid and confused . I one day woke up , and just began to isolate myself . I had no idea why I was isolating myself and what the purpose was . Now , 23 years young and looking at my life it all makes sense . It isn't easy to trust , ecspecially as a human being . We question everything ,  all the time ! Its just in our nature . So , of course , questions ran through my mind such as " am I doing the right thing ?" or " My friends aren't doing what I am doing , why am I the odd ball out ?" At the time I wasn't spiritually mature enough to recieve the answer to that question . 

My very first lesson was to channel my energy properly . That meant for me to go into isolation , which  consisted of ; working full time , no friend hang out time , reading , writing , and creating art . I disconnected from social media and I hibernated because I knew I was going through this for a reason . Questioning my every move , I learned to keep my faith alive and just trust . 

Fast foreword to my life today . I am healthy , happy , blessed in more ways I could ever imagine. I had to learn to channel my energy into my own journey . I learned very quickly that looking to the left or right of me would make me fall down . We all have our own purpose in life and we all have to practice discipline to figure out that purpose . Your soul will naturally lead you to where you are suppose to go ONLY if you're willing to allow it to . Our ego seems to get in the way the majority of the time . It is our job , to recognize the ego ( your flesh ) and tell it to simply " have a seat !" 

With all of that being said , I stepped into my purpose by channeling my energy properly . I stopped feeding things that didn't need to be fed . I also had to let a lot of friends go that were no longer serving a purpose in my life ( this is a VERY  hard part of the journey , test crucial part. ) . I still respected all with the understanding that everyone is on their own path and I cannot judge their footsteps . I am here to tell you do NOT be afraid of isolation ! You are one with God and being able to tap into that is the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me . You learn so much about yourself as well as other people . Life seems to be a lot easier because you are spiritually in tune with the creator and learn to listen to the voice of our higher self as well as God . 


Trust your journey . Have patience , a lot of it . Don't let circumstances keep you down , they are only there to teach you something . Be as strong as you can , and when you feel like giving up , knell down and pray . 


Peace & Blessings

Terrible pregnancy skin !!

        ( Pregnancy skin & non pregnancy skin regimen ) 

        ( Pregnancy skin & non pregnancy skin regimen ) 

When in my first trimester of pregnancy , my skin went CRAZY ! I freaked out with it , which only made it worse :( I hand break outs all over and was very embarrassed to be in public . I've never experienced acne or anything of that nature so I was sad lol . First my body is gaining weight and going through changes , next I am hormonal and emotional , last but not least my skin is bugging out ! What do I do !? 

                                 Lovin my new skin :) 

                                 Lovin my new skin :) 

The answer for myself was to say " this is only temporary , you are creating a human . This is normal . " I began to drink lots of water through out the day and also decided to switch over to all organic face products . I switched over for two reasons , one being that I didn't want products with a bunch of chemicals being transferred to my baby . The second reason was I didn't want to make my skin even WORSE with all that extras clogging my pores . Not only did I have to switch my skin care but I also had to switch my makeup . I knew liquid makeup wasn't going to cut it any longer . 


The products that got my face back to normal are listed below , keep in mind these products are ORGANIC , these products are also for sensitive skin . WATER is a necessity not only for you baby but also for you to stay looking fresh and fly through this pregnancy :) 


African Black Soap : I purchased this from Whole Foods in the beauty dept. I got this for many different reason . The first being that it is organic , but I also wanted something that would help me with dark spots after picking at my face . Me not being use to having breakouts I picked a lot but I heard this stuff helps with that and it did . I indulge night & day with lukewarm water . 

Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel Sensitive Skin : I also purchased this from Whole Foods . This stuff is amazing for dark spots as well as rejuvenating your skin and keeping  it nice and firm . It is a GREAT cleanse and keeps my face nice and smooth . I only do this once a week due to me not wanting to mess with my skin too much but to keep it nice and fresh of course !

OLEHENRIKSEN Sheer Transformation moisturizer : OMG ! This product is the bomb.com I bought this product from the spa and I can't rave about it more than I am about to . Like I said I was picking at my face and began to notice ugly dark marks . I freaked and ended up getting treated to a facial at this place . SOOOOO relaxing & amazing ! I got a deep cleaning which also included a peel like the one listed above as well as exfoliation process which is amazing . I asked him about getting rid of dark spots and he guided me to this product . I have been using it for only 2 weeks and my skin is already clear and back to normal . No dark spots!! :) 

All of these products helped me so much in the process of my skin calming down and I am very gentle with it .  My makeup had to change as well , below you will see the new compact I use . I've never been a compact powder type of girl but this is my new thanggggg 

PUR 4- in- 1 Mineral foundation w/ skincare : My mom has been telling me for years to try this product but I was so against powder foundation . As soon as I got pregnant I knew that I needed to make a change . I headed over to Sephora and the lady went straight to the PUR department . I am OBSESSED with this foundation . Its light , fresh , has great coverage , and is so much better for your skin than liquid. I will stick with this foundation even after I deliver for sureeeee !


I hope all this information helps ! Good luck on your journey

My first baby product review are the Belly Buds !!  These things are super cool ! You can play your growing baby audio from voice recordings , books , and music . They say your baby starts learning in the womb so why not start now ? I received these little gems in the mail and I am addicted ! I hope my baby is loving them as much as I am ! I want her to be advance , well equipped , while enjoying her " growing party " in my belly . When running errands or working , I can play her some music and she can jam out . I thought this invention was really cool ! I also really like the fact that they aren't like headphones wrapped round my belly and no matter how big I get , she can still get her tunes played to her while mommy is comfy .

I am excited to share this part of my journey . It is a big step for me to share because it is very close to my heart but I figured I can inspire young moms like myself to have fun with it and keep dream chasing while still being an amazing mother :) 

Enjoy ! Peace & Blessings
