A Sacred Antidote to Anxiety

A Sacred Antidote to Anxiety

by Lisa McCrohan | Aug 23, 2020 | feminine embodiment practices, Living Your Spirituality in Everyday Life, Soul Fuel, Soulful Poetry

Resting in Her In meditation this evening, I laid down on the floor and I cradled my head in my hands – cupping my head ever so gently as though I were holding a newborn. Slowly, I touched the back of head, sides of my head, and forehead. The image of my mother...
Beside You

Beside You

by Lisa McCrohan | Apr 12, 2020 | Living Your Spirituality in Everyday Life, Soulful Poetry

Beside You I walk beside you. No need to worry. I am here with you, at your side. You do not go alone. When you breathe in, breathe in my peace. Let it flow into every cell in your body, softening what has been bracing for too long now. When you breathe out, breathe...
With You

With You

by Lisa McCrohan | Feb 21, 2020 | living with intention and purpose, Living Your Spirituality in Everyday Life, Soulful Poetry

With You Maybe the Universe is asking you to trust even more deeply to surrender even more fully to not know and still take a leap into the darkness and find that not only do you have wings but a thousand angels and ancestors are with you. Lisa McCrohan, MA, LCSW-C,...
The Soul’s Way

The Soul’s Way

by Lisa McCrohan | Jul 8, 2019 | Living Your Spirituality in Everyday Life, Soulful Poetry

The Soul’s Way You think that you can control what will come by planning and striving, reaching and being ever so organized. When you have “everything in place,” you have the illusion of control. For a while, you may feel satisfied, the hunger seems quelled, and all...

It’s time for beauty, honor, and integrity

by Lisa McCrohan | Sep 4, 2018 | living with intention and purpose, Living Your Spirituality in Everyday Life, Soulful Poetry

It’s Time for Beauty When your heart is heavy, when your eyes are tired, when you’ve been working too much and too hard, when your anxiety runs high, when you’ve read about yet another cruelty happening in our world… let it be time for beauty. Yes, pause...
How a Big Mistake Became a Blessing

How a Big Mistake Became a Blessing

by Lisa McCrohan | Sep 27, 2017 | Living Your Spirituality in Everyday Life

Back when I was in the middle of publishing Gems of Delight, I made a big mistake. After many edits had been done on GoD, we ran our hard-copy proofs and mailed them out to my pre-readers. I was so excited to finally hold GoD in my hands in book form! We did some...

I believe that delight is our true nature, compassion heals, and being in community with like-hearted people nourishes the soul. You step into and embody your true power when you turn inward and listen to your heart. More about Lisa →

It’s fun to get dressed up (and still be barefoo It’s fun to get dressed up (and still be barefoot!) to start signing your book that you’ve recently published!
.
My best friend, @mfd_style Maria, who is a stylist taught me well!
.
I am signing copies of Your Light is Rising for my Kickstarter contributors. It’s an incredible feeling to receive such love and support. I can’t wait for folks to have their copy. I say a little prayer for each person as I write a message to them and sign their book.
.
You can now order signed copies from my shop.
.
Thank you for being patient with us - we are a small operation - just me and Brian!  Because of the pandemic, we couldn’t have a “shipping party” this time. So it’s just the two to us! The picture of boxes are what we got to on Friday!  I try and do 30 a day! So Tuesday when the post office opens, hopefully we will have 120 books signed and ready to send out! 
.
Thank you for supporting independent authors. An independent author is one who is the creative director of her book - from conception to editing to marketing to distribution. I hire a professional editor, but that’s it! This mama oversees it all. I love being an indie author because it offers me the freedom to write what I feel moved to write and share writings in ways that feel authentic to my soul and honor the rhythm of my family. AND it also means that I do a lot do work and need the support of readers who believe in my writings to help me spread the soul medicine of these writings! So please know that every time you buy a book and share my messages, I am deeply grateful. Your words of encouragement fuel me to keep on listening and keep on writing to inspire a more compassionate world - starting with nourishing the peace in YOUR soul.

One of the reasons I wrote Your Light is Rising is One of the reasons I wrote Your Light is Rising is for the poetry and embodiment practices to be a source of “soul fuel” for you to listen within and honor the art within you, the dream within you, the book you need to write that’s within you. How do we heal our world?  How do we create a more compassionate world?  One way is by each of us stepping into the power of our dream - that light within us - that was not meant to stay quiet or small. But rather it needs to be out in the world as a healing source of love and light.

In any work for justice and a more compassionate w In any work for justice and a more compassionate world, we need these “basics” in place. We can easily overlook these when things get stressful and busy. I know I can.  Here are a few things to “check off” in your day. Which one are you putting on your “list” to do today?

Just a few more weeks and Your Light is Rising will be out. You can preorder now. Link in profile. I can’t wait for this soul nourishing book to be in your hands - maybe it’ll become one of your “to do’s” throughout the day — read a little poem, soak in a bit of soul nourishment, feel your soul shine a little brighter. 😌💗

Rising . You were made for something bigger, bolde Rising
.
You were made for something bigger, bolder
yet softer and slower.

It’s time to pause and listen within,
to move your body in ways that
invigorate you
and embolden your feminine form.

You were meant for something freer, lighter,
and less harsh.

It’s time to let go of what
no longer serves you
and rise.

This is a poem from my forthcoming book, Your Light is Rising. It’s in the section of Morning: Courage. You can preorder your singed copy! Link in profile.
.
It’s always a risk to put yourself out there, to remember your dream, to give your dream and your own precious self attention, to ask others to be alongside you.
.
But “playing small” and “playing it safe” all the time isn’t what our souls long for us to do. We are meant to RISE - to let go of what doesn’t serve us, to be freer and lighter, to embody our light and to share it with others.
.
So we ask for the courage to take soul risks. And we go for it. That is the life I want to live. You too?!
.
What no longer serves you?  How are you called to rise?
.
.
Thank you for supporting independent authors like me get their messages of hope and compassion out into the world. I’m deeply grateful.
.
Happy Epiphany’. Let your light shine.

I needed this reminder this morning - to make a vo I needed this reminder this morning - to make a vow to myself. I woke up cranky and anxious. Making a vow helps me to both see what’s happening within me (and my life) and to treat it (me, others, my life, the feelings within me) with kindness. So far that vow is helping me as I ease into seeing clients for the day.
.
Maybe you woke up today, too, feeling icky or anxious or annoyed.

Hold that all gently and kindly. 
Breathe.
Make a vow to yourself.
Let grace flow through you as you go about your day.

This poem is from my new book, Your Light is Rising. You can preorder signed copies now on my shop!  Thank you for supporting independent authors like me spread messages of delight, compassion, and connection. I am grateful to you.
