It is the perfect time to take 5 minutes, think about the day ahead & listen to your heart for the guiding intention that will support you through the day. You will find, with daily practice, your intention arises with more ease & can be so beneficial to the smooth running of your day. Examples of Intentions: I intend to see the goodness in everyone. Or I intend to be kind to myself under pressure. Or I see goodness in everyone. Enjoy.

Start your day with positivity & intention by taking 5 minutes in the morning to think about the day ahead and set a guiding intention.

Peaceful, Safe, Kind and Accepting

“Perhaps it is more fitting than ever to allow acceptance into your heart; to let it guide you towards even greater things.” ~ Dorothy Zennuriye Juno ~ Sometimes it is through our perseverance and dedication that the relationship becomes what we make it. At other times, we are not able to have the kind of relationship that we would like. If the other person is unable or unwilling to meet our needs of honesty, trustworthiness, kindness and integrity, then the relationship will be limited. Acceptance is the understanding of this. Acceptance of 'what is' guides us into something better. Please reach out to me if you would like my help in the practice and the art of acceptance. Namaste. dorothyzennuriyejuno.com

Acceptance is key in relationships; if someone can't meet your needs, acceptance of 'what is' will guide you towards something better.

A Time of Acceptance

If you can begin one change about how you live your life - begin with your decision to be radically self honest. Catch yourself when you are telling an untruth - no matter how innocent or minor it may seem. Make a point to stop yourself - even if you are mid-sentence in conversation with another and correct what you are saying. When you are telling yourself something that you want so desperately to be true; pay attention to whether you are being wholly honest or if you are avoiding what 'is' true in face of what you wish for. "Radical self honesty frees you to live your truth" Join me in the full length episode (7min version) where I share the one question that reminds you how to define what 'is' true. Thank you for listening! Namaste! In kindness and gratitude, dorothy xo

Be radically self-honest, catch yourself when lying, even in minor instances, and free yourself to live your truth, suggests Dorothy in a podcast episode.

Radical Self Honesty

“Perhaps it is more fitting than ever to allow acceptance into your heart; to let it guide you towards even greater things.” - Dorothy Ratusny We do not always have the kind of relationships that we would like. Sometimes it is through our perseverance and dedication that the relationship becomes what we make it; and at times it is because the other person is not able to meet our needs; our needs of honesty, of trustworthiness, of kindness, and of integrity, that the relationship is limited. Acceptance must also be the understanding of this; the ability to allow for others on their own path and journey through life; and to release our attachments, to what we can accept is not possible; not as the result of our unwillingness, rather the acknowledgement and acceptance that another is unwilling or unable – or both.

Acceptance allows for growth in relationships, even when the other person can't meet our needs; it means releasing attachments to what is not possible.

This practice invites you to focus on yourself and direct kind intentions and wishes. We often focus on others and forget that we are equally worthy of kindness and care.

Focus on yourself with kind intentions and wishes, as you are equally worthy of care and kindness.

In this episode of Life Coaching WISDOM, I offer the strategies for building a more confident version of yourself, and for how to practice loving kindness directed inward. If you would like my help, please reach out to me - let me help. Namaste! MUSIC: Justin Woodward & John Murphy, 'sunshine adagio'
