Now there will be some candid moments, there may even be a little ‘out there’ moments and more than likely I will have the odd blonde moment (no pun to blondes intended ) Here I share my journey with you in reconnecting with my inner goddess – showing my authentic self.

To celebrate the starting of Oh my Goddess, send me an email michelle@goddessplayshops.com with your name and I’ll send you a free mini Goddess reading.  Yup, I will. However there needs to be an energy exchange of some sort so to start your journey of reconnecting with your inner goddess, tell me 3 things you love about yourself (yup about you and only you ) and I’ll send you a mini reading.

I look forward to your emails!

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting in person one of our Perth Goddess Playshop Facilitators – Tracey Jewel.

Tracey has just released her new book Goddess Within and has her own business Goddess in a bottle.

She was over in Melbourne doing her book launch and sent me a goddess message on the ole facebook to say she was in town. I could not miss the opportunity to go meet her and what a true delight it was.

She facilitated a small workshop as part of her book launch and I so enjoyed listening in with 10 other women in the group as she shared her wisdom on Manifesting.

Tracey is an amazing manifestor and just a couple of things she manifested are:  A Mercedes Benz car !!! and among other things an all expenses trip to the USA to see OPRAH’s last show just recently. Amazing right !!!.

Among other things she uses the power of Vision Boards, yes Vision boards to bring all her dreams to fruition.  She will be coming back to Melbourne in November to speak at the Mind Body Spirit festival and I even think we may see her at a Goddess Playshop out in The Goddess Shed during that time .

I just wanted to share how blessed we are to have her as part of our Goddess Facilitator community and am looking forward to reading her gorgeous book – Goddess Within and you can order it here from her website.

PS: Tracey will be facilitating her own Goddess Playshops in Perth very soon

Today I am grateful for  technology… Yes Technology for it allows us to be in contact with amazing Goddesses. I say this because today was our first distance training class. We have gorgeous goddesses joining us from the United Kingdom, Western Australia and Melbourne and we all can’t be in the same place at the same time so thanks to the wonderful web we connected on a Tele-seminar tonight.

I am truly grateful as because of that these wonderful women are going to start their own business (and in some cases number 2 business) to share their gifts with the world. They will be helping women all over the globe and that to me is truly fantastic and a real Dream come true. Who knows what is going to be created after teleseminar 9 .

Have a wonderful night.

PS: Watch out for the new facilitators coming to your area soon.

Sunday I held a Goddess Playhshop all about Love.  We had a small group this time and it was an absolute Joy to facilitate.  So for those amazing women who attended, Juicy Jenny, Lucious Lisa, Intelligent intuitive Illona and Courageous Connie, thank you for sharing space and the laughter, and connection we had makes my heart sing.

Have a wonderful week everyone – you totally deserve it.

I have been away on a Glamping trip to Merimbula over the Easter break and just getting back into things today (yes took a couple of extra days). It was a lovely trip away with the family this trip away was really enjoyable.

The reason why this was more than other holidays was because I consciously did not take any work away with me this time. I managed to get my to-do list all up to date for my return home. So I enjoyed the time away with family and friends. We camped with another family and it was fun. The kids enjoyed themselves and hardly ever fought. The adults enjoyed themselves too (few wines and bbqs were had). I even managed to have a massage and lunch with my girlfriend in town while kids and hubbys looked after each other back at camp .

Olive in Pambula - massage heaven

I feel refreshed and ready for the busy few months ahead with Goddess Playshops touring to Sydney, then Melbourne Mind Body Festivals and then off to New York in June – where has this year gone.

While away we also got to reconnect with other friends who were in Merimbula and it was fantastic to just catchup where we left off. It was so funny the first time we met up as the words could not come out fast enough lol we had to meet up again for a 4 hour lunch (both families bought the kids along). Its great when you can surround yourself with like-spirited people.

This Sunday I am holding a Goddess Playshop and I just about cancelled it after the holidays but something said to me – ok just put it out there and if you get some people wanting to come then it will go ahead. Within minutes of posting on facebook and a couple of followups I had 4 people confirm they were coming – and so I am so grateful I decided to share the event. Listening to my Goddess intuition certainly helped me today.

So feeling blissed and blessed all at the same time.

Have a wonderful short week and will be coming back with more gratitude soon.

Camping???

What is Glamping you say?  Well the other day I put a post up about going away in our caravan. Now some people know this caravan as the Tajmahal, but the point is if this Goddess is going to be in a caravan then it is going to have all the mod cons. Unfortunately it does not have a coffee making machine and the who topic (on facebook) had quite a few posts.  So I am sharing today that someone came back with the word GLAMPING which is Glamour and Camping all in one.

I loved that and so I am grateful today for having a Tajmahal of caravans to go away and spend family goddess time with kids and hubby, and that

Glamping !!!

caravaning is now Glamourous and Goddessy all in one.

Connecting women to their Beauty and Power

Today I am so grateful for my mother in law.  It’s school holidays here in Melbourne and its just been so hectic leading up to Easter. With two littlies and still work to be done in the office my lovely mother in law volunteered to take the kids for a few hours. They went to see the movie Rio and dad picked them up at 5pm.  I got so much done in that 5 hours – even managed to take a small break and sit outside in the sunshine for a much needed break.

I am grateful she is close as my own mum still lives in New Zealand (but not for long – another blog) and she loves taking the kids for days here and there.  So Agnes thank you so much I am truly Grateful.

Goddess Playshops

today I am doing 2 days worth of gratitude in one. You see yesterday was my gorgeous son Coopers birthday and we started the morning as you do opening presents.  All he wanted was Leggo and so thats exactly what he got.  His comment to me on what he would like for his birthday “just get me Leggo mum, everyone else can get me other things “.  It was his 7th birthday and as a Goddess mum, like some of you out there on our childs birthdays we quite often (ok we ALWAYS) go back to our birth story. Right back to the moment they were born. You can feel every push and kick again, and then remember the absolute joy when your bub is born.

I went back to that moment and shared absolute gratitude that Cooper is a healthy and happy little boy.  For that I am so truly grateful.

Yesterday we also went to my husbands cousins memorial day (not sure if thats what you call it). Trevor was 43 years old and he passed away suddenly last week. He did not want the traditional church service, all he wanted was to have all his family and friends congregate at his home (who he shared with his beautiful wife Marie) and to share a beer and a snag or two cooked on his bbq.

Well there were so many people there (which was totally awesome and testament to the wonderful human being he was) and we packed into his back yard, had a drink or two, ate a beautiful meal (not bbq that came later so I heard) and talked about the wonderful Trevor. His eulogy was an absolute tear jerker, but with so many tears of joy and laughter at the brother/cousin/friend we all knew and loved. And so at that moment I was so totally grateful to have had my heart touched by such a wonderful man. The Hennekam family reunions will never be the same Trev, we love you and miss you.

Sunday because of Trevs gathering on Coopers birthday we had to have Coopers little birthday party.  We had 4 kids which incude my two show up for some ten pin bowling.  Such fun was had with the three 7 year old boys and my 5 year old lil goddess daughter.  Well guess who won the bowling ?  Yes my daughter, but again everyone had a great day.  I especially thank my very heavily pregnant sister for driving over my nephew so he could attend the party.  She went off and had a lovely massage while the party was on.  I have often been told that when someone passes… very soon after there is a birth in the family.  So yes there will be very soon.

Today I am grateful for my life – enough said.

Many many Blissings

Goddess on Purpose

I heard this voice behind me “excuse me” and I turned around. There was a lady standing with her 18 month old baby and she asked me if I would like to have her trolley.  I said that would be great as it saved her putting it back into the stack of trolleys so I kept searching for my $1 so I could give it to her.  I was slightly embarrassed because I only had 20 cents and a $20 dollar note so I said thats to her “thank you but I don’t have change, so not to worry about it” . With that she said “Thats ok its my good deed for the day !” .  I was ready to protest and say oh no no please get your money back and I will get some change – I stopped myself and said to her – wow thank you so much that is wonderful.  She smiled and walked away with her babe in arms.

I smiled and just thought to myself – what a lovely Goddess mother, then how lucky am I to bump into such generous people and life is great. I also thanked myself for allowing myself to receive because not only was I beneficiary of her wonderful act but she was also. I do quite often leave my $1 coin in the trolley for the next person and yesterday I got a lovely surprise too.

Today I am grateful for  humour. Yes the belly laugh, the smile, the quirky joke I saw on facebook. Some of the funniest times are with my family.  Not just with the kids but with my own sisters. When we get together and the one liners get started well its all on !!!.  Laughter is what  makes the world go round – so smile, grin or just laugh – it makes everything feel great
