The secret that will...

Unlock your potential and give you wings to soar over obstacles.

I grew up believing that Beauty was a physical feature you were born with. Than I became a young adult and was convinced Beauty was in the soul of a grateful human being. However this changed when I met someone who shared a profound insight that I reveal in my ebook.

Walk In Beauty

I pondered for twenty years [yes 20 years] thinking about this question, "How do I walk in beauty?" In the mean time I traveled the world teaching Polynesian performing arts, working in cultural and holistic careers but never forgetting those words, "Walk In Beauty." In all honesty I was compelled and inspired to write my observations into a book from 1995 to 2001 but I couldn't.

Eventually I got married and had a few kamali'i - little ones in Hawaiian language. By a few I mean seven [yes 7 children] who were about a year to two years apart. Motherhood and my career as a holistic fitness instructor kept me busy but when my oldest daughter was about to turn thirteen I remembered a previous endeavor. To write, edit and publish, "Walk In Beauty." After all, thirteen is a huge step away from childhood and my baby/big girl would need this book.

So in 2016, during a year of extreme hardships [I'm saving that for another day] I decided to buckle down and write. The goal was to create a manual that would unravel Beauty's Secrets while combining creativity and self expression [aka: journaling]. I published it on March 15, 2017 on my youngest son's fourth birthday. Through much prayer and a bunch of edits the 5-Realms of Beauty existed in the form of a mobile friendly ebook.

Start a WIB "Sip & Socialize"

After publishing the book I started to define characteristics that seem flow among each and every realm. I picked out eight that really stood out to me. It was kind of a checklist for "Walk In Beauty" or what I call the WIB-Checklist.

Which of these 8 characteristics do you identify with?

Self-Love: the ability to care for and nurture yourself.
Infectious Joy: happiness comes from within you, you manufacture joy.
Peaceful Mindset: because your foundation is built on self-love you can weather life.
Patient: time is a teacher and the journey is more important than the destination.
Kind Nature: because kindness is the most attractive commodity in any culture.
Consistent: diligence and perseverance are key factors in everything you do.
Self-Mastery: the number one attribute and this is why you walk in beauty.
Harmony: maintaining a sense of community in every arena of your life.

I'll leave you with a little bit of my daily holistic practice of art-journaling. PEACE Be the Journey.

DGJ isn't part of someone's usual fitness routine but it should be. Our soul and emotional wellbeing needs its own type of workout. Instead of gyms think journal and instead of weights think ink. The BEAUTIFUL SOUL CHALLENGE is available for you to get into the habit of health centered mindfulness.
