With everything happening in our world and the many challenges we each face, it’s easy to let the chaos increase and bring greater emotional stress, fear, and anxiety. Our peace is constantly being attacked. Research even shows that our addictions—and the ways we try to “numb” our emotions—are steadily increasing.

Have you noticed how much harder it’s becoming for people to control their thoughts, emotions, and reactions? Sadly, we’re turning into a society that’s more disconnected, divided, and dependent on outside things for comfort. We numb our emotional pain with distractions and forget how to stop, breathe, and quiet our minds and hearts.

Think about what you tend to reach for when you’re trying to “feel better”: food, your phone, TV, entertainment, shopping, social media, substances, or other habits that seem harmless at first. Over time, these things become our emotional crutches. They begin to control us. We lose our ability to genuinely regulate our inner peace. We forget to listen to ourselves—and most importantly—to ask God for help.

When we recognize the ways we rely on outside sources for peace, we can begin to examine those habits and gradually remove them from our lives. Often, we don’t even realize how much control those things have over our emotions. The more we reach outward for comfort, the more our inner light begins to dim. We become reactive, impatient, and uneasy—hurting not only ourselves but also those around us.

Remember: the enemy of your soul wants you to become dependent on outside things. He wants you to be enslaved by them. He’ll whisper that it’s too uncomfortable to sit with your feelings or look within—but that’s how he keeps you distracted and distant from God. If he can keep you from processing your emotions, from feeling peace, and from speaking to your Heavenly Father, then he wins—by making you as miserable as he is.

But God, our loving Father in Heaven, invites us to rise above that. He wants us to choose to turn to Him. He wants us to remember that we are His children—with divine access to His power, light, and peace. True and lasting peace doesn’t come from the world. It comes from God. He can give us peace in abundance, even in the middle of life’s storms. When we trust Him, we can remain calm, faithful, and steady—no matter what comes.

This week, I want to encourage you to take a deeper look within yourself. This might feel uncomfortable at first. You may be tempted to reach for your phone, turn on the TV, or distract yourself—but try instead to simply sit still for a moment and feel your feelings.

When something triggers you, take a breath. Close your eyes. Cover your ears if it helps, and notice what’s happening inside. See your thoughts and emotions clearly. Then, invite divine light into your heart and soul. Ask God to fill you with His love, His strength, and His peace. Let yourself feel that power flowing from Him into your heart, mind, and soul.

Nothing compares to that sacred feeling of peace that comes directly from God. ❤️

If you’d like, write down any impressions or wisdom that God places in your heart. The more open you are to receiving, the more He will give.

Take time to notice the things you use to “numb” emotional discomfort. Ask yourself:

• What steals my peace?

• What do I do when I’m angry, stressed, or anxious?

• Do those things bring me lasting peace—or do they leave me feeling empty?

These are important questions. Getting to know ourselves is part of our spiritual growth. We are meant to become our own best friend, cheerleader, and protector of peace. When we recognize what’s happening inside, we can consciously invite more goodness and easily reject negativity.

So, I invite you to practice breathing, feeling, and connecting with God whenever you notice inner chaos. Give yourself love and compassion. Be proud of your courage to look within—without needing anything external to help you do so. Reach toward the true Giver of Peace and allow Him to calm your heart and restore your soul.

Set a goal this week to be your inner peace keeper. In your quiet moments, connect with the divine source of peace and love—our Heavenly Father. Ask Him to help you focus on your inner light instead of the world’s distractions. As you practice, you’ll feel stronger, calmer, and more centered every day.

Remember the Savior’s words in John 14:27:

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” ❤️

Whatever is troubling you today—fear, stress, or sadness—take a moment to sit with those feelings. Breathe. Recognize what you feel and where it shows up in your body. Then say,

“I invite the peace of God to come and be with me. To heal me, strengthen me, and remind me of my divine light. I am love. I am peace. I am a child of God.”

Feel His calmness cover you. God will replace your pain with His peace and fill your heart with light and love. There is no greater therapy than inviting His presence into your soul.

Trust Him—He is the King of Peace, the Giver of all that is good, and the Creator of love and light. He will strengthen, lift, and comfort you every day.

Our spiritual goal this week:

To gain greater inner peace—to be the keeper and protector of our peace. To rely on God, not the world, for comfort and strength. To say,

“I choose this hour to keep my peace centered on God, who sees me, hears me, loves me, and helps me. I am the protector of my inner peace, and I choose light, love, and peace to surround me today.” 💛

Our physical goal: Exercise 2–3 times this week and nourish your body with water and nutrient-rich foods. 🫶🏼

I hope to see you in class tonight at 7 p.m. Make this promise to yourself—to care for your body, mind, and spirit. You’ll feel the difference as we practice becoming the keepers of our peace during our peaceful meditation.

With love,

Lili 🌸

We all have those moments when the storms of life rage and the winds of discouragement blow. It’s during those moments when it’s easy to feel uprooted—shaken by trials, hurt by others, or burdened by uncertainty. Yet, just as a tree stands firm because its roots reach deep into the nourishing soil, we too can stand strong when our roots reach deep into Christ, our Redeemer.

I love the thought of being rooted in Christ. To be rooted in Christ means that we focus on allowing to His love, His teachings, and His Spirit become the foundation that steadies our souls. In Him we are strong. In Him we are nourished in peace, love, compassion, faith and strength.

Paul taught; “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith…” — Colossians 2:6–7

When our roots are in Christ, we are not defined by the storms around us but by the strength beneath us. 💛 We are able to focus on Christ and be reminded that “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)

The Savior said,

“Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them… is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock.” — Luke 6:47–48

That rock is Christ.

In the moments when people test our patience, when fear whispers doubts, or when our hearts ache from loss or loneliness, we can pause and remember where we are rooted. His light and love flow quietly beneath the surface, ready to sustain us if we stay connected through prayer, scripture, and stillness.

Tonight in class we will focus on a beautiful meditation about being rooted in Christ. I hope that you can join us to turn off the world and focus not only on strengthening your body but also allowing yourself to be rooted in Christ. Here’s are a few mindfulness exercises that you can practice today.

1. “The Deep Root” Breath

Sit still for a moment. Breathe deeply and imagine your breath drawing strength from deep roots reaching into Christ’s love.

As you inhale, say silently: “I am grounded in Christ.”

As you exhale, say: “He strengthens me.”

Let His peace fill your mind and body. Stay in this sacred stillness for one minute. 💛

2. “Scripture Root Reflection”

Open your scriptures and read one verse about Christ’s strength (for example, Philippians 4:13).

As you read slowly, ask:

• What truth is Christ teaching me here?

• How can this truth steady me today?
Write one short sentence to carry with you, such as “Christ is my anchor,” or “Through Him, I am strong.” Repeat it whenever challenges arise.

Here are a few anchoring scriptures to help us.

• “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” — Philippians 4:13

• “Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God.” — Doctrine and Covenants 123:17

• “Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” — Joshua 1:9

• “Ye must build your foundation upon my rock… a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.” — Helaman 5:12

❤️ That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. (Ephesians 3:17-19)

Our goal for this week is to strengthen our roots in Christ. To allow ourselves to feel His love in the difficult as well as in the beautiful moments that we face in our lives.

That we may live in gratitude daily for the ways in which we are able to “water our roots” & for the ways in which the storms of life also strengthen our roots. That we may trust in God daily and be able to be filly rooted in Him and feel His love no matter what we may be facing.

Remember that Christ doesn’t always calm every storm immediately—but when we are rooted in Him, He calms us first. ❤️ His roots of mercy, peace, and strength hold us steady when life feels uncertain. The deeper we let those roots grow—through faith, prayer, and obedience—the more unshakable we become.

Let your heart whisper today:

“No matter what comes, I will stay rooted in Christ. He is my rock, my Redeemer, and my rest.”

Love you all and hope to see you tonight at 7pm! 💖

Love,

On cloudy and rainy days, it’s easy to feel lazy, gloomy, or even discouraged. Storms—whether in the weather, our circumstances, or our thoughts—can weigh heavily on our hearts. But we are not powerless. God has given us the ability to choose how much of that darkness we let inside. Each day, we get to decide whether to carry the storms within us, or to seek out the sunshine. ☀️

It’s during the storms of our lives or when the negativity of the world gets to us, that we need to remember that nothing good is built on that negativity. If we continually look for the storm, we will miss the light. Instead, let’s choose to open our hearts to the good, the hopeful, and the uplifting. The more we look for God’s light, the more we will see how much sunshine we already have in our lives. 🌼

Here are a few ways to invite that light and push away the storm clouds:

• 🌿 Gratitude: Begin and end the day by naming blessings, big or small. Gratitude shifts our focus from what is lacking to what is abundant.

• 🤝 Service & Connection: Give your attention fully to a loved one, or serve someone quietly in need. Light grows as we share it.

• 🙏 Prayer & Scripture: God has given us His words for guidance and strength. When storms rise, turn to His promises. Memorize scriptures and listen to uplifting music that draws your attention to God and your divine light.

• 🌸 Mindful Presence: Peace is found by turning inward and remembering our divine nature as children of God. Even in chaos, we can pause, breathe, let our mind, body and soul unwind and invite the sunshine of Christ to light and bless the light within us to be brighter and stronger.💛

The scriptures remind us:

• “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7)💖

• “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you… Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” (John 14:27) ❤️

• “Verily, verily, I say unto you, I will try you and prove you… nevertheless, my peace I will give unto you if you are faithful.” (Doctrine & Covenants 98:12, 18)💛

These words remind us that God wants us to be positive, hopeful, and resilient. Even when storms come, we can grow from them—just as flowers grow stronger after the rain. When we let go of the bad and hold on to the good, we carry more sunshine in our souls and we can share that light with others as well.

I invite you to focus on seeking the sunshine of a loving God who is able to open up the rain clouds of your life and pour His divine light and love over you. Over your mind, your heart and your soul.

He is able to bless you with His Peace which is greater than any other peace the world can give. So, lets be faithful to Him. Believe in Him. Come to Him and choose to reject the negativity and focus on bringing more of His light into our lives. That we continue to grow stronger in our faith each day having a spirit of happiness and of optimism about our lives. 🥰💛🙏🏼

WITH CHRIST ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! Trust Him and see what He can do in your life. As we strive to bring in the light, we can share our light with others and help them as well! 💝

We are not alone, God will help us with the pure and real desires of our hearts. Trust Him and know that ALL things in our lives will work out for our benefit be for our good. Even in the storms we can look for the sunshine. ☀️ Invite it into your life. Treasure it. Protect it. Take care of it and light others on your way as well. 🤗

✨ Our Spiritual Goal this week: When your mind seeks out storms, pause. Ask: Where is the sunshine here? What good can come from this? Then choose to focus on the light. 🌤️

🏃 Our Physical Goal this week: Do something active that brings you joy! Whether it’s walking on the beach, dancing, swimming, or simply stretching—let your body remind your mind that life is good and it’s a blessing to take care of your body.

I hope you can make it to class tonight! The hardest step is always showing up, but once you do, your mind, body, and spirit will thank you. It’s more than a workout—it’s a way of choosing light, healing, and joy. 🌞💛

Love you all!

The scriptures remind us that “godliness with contentment is great gain” (1 Timothy 6:6). In a world full of comparison, conflicts, and constant noise, this is more than just good advice—it’s a lifeline 💛

Contentment is not complacency, and it’s not apathy, it’s not about having less ambition, nor does it mean settling for mediocrity. True contentment comes when our hearts are anchored in God, when our worth is not measured by what we own, how we look, what we accomplish or what others think, but by who we are as beloved children of God.

When we practice godliness with contentment, we rise above the endless cycle of comparison. Instead of looking outward at what others have, do, or not do, we look upward and inward—upward to God’s love, and inward to the peace He has already placed within us.

The Savior taught, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you” let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. (John 14:27). That peace is not found in competition or possession, but in CONNECTION—with God, with our divine nature, and with others in love. ♾️

When we can be content in Christ, when we know who we are as a child of God, when we know in the God that we know and trust. We find that there’s true peace and happiness. We stop relying on competition and instead we increase in our compassion.

We stop judging and instead we start giving more kindness, compassion and love. Our energy stops being “triggered” by comparison and instead we focus on what God has given us and what we can do for Him with what we have. Christ’s invitation is to seek first the kingdom of God, and let all other things fall into their proper place.

So, how can we live this?

• We can shift our focus: Each day, instead of measuring what we lack, make time to breathe and count what you already have through God’s grace.

• Live simply: The Prophet Alma taught that we should “plant the word” of God in our hearts and let it grow (Alma 32). A simple, growing faith creates a deeply rooted connection to our Father in Heaven. The creator and true giver of all that we have. 🌱

• Practice gratitude: Gratitude transforms what we have into enough, and enough into abundance. 🤩 Gratitude is proven to reduce anxiety, stress and to increase happiness. Don’t we all need a little more daily gratitude? 🧡

• Seek eternal perspective: As Paul reminded, “We brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out” (1 Timothy 6:7).

The goal is this: to live so filled with God’s light that we are no longer moved by the shifting winds of the world. To know that whatever we have here is all “borrowed” and temporary. What we end up taking with us is our soul! We truly take nothing with us. That’s why it’s so important to seek to build our Heavenly Mansion. To gain Heavenly treasures and some of the best ways we can reach that is by letting go of our pride, by humbling ourselves, by being grateful and happy with our blessings, trusting God and going out and serving others.

So, let’s work on not allowing the world to persuade us to complain and to be “unhappy”until we get or do this or that….We have to stop believing the lies of the enemy who wants to draw us away from God! from truly strengthening our souls (which is the only thing that we can actually take with us) Instead, our focus should be on making it a point that we strive to be anchored in Christ.

Living in Godly contentment. Which does not make us passive, but if anything it EMPOWERS US. It gives us strength to serve, to love, to uplift, and to walk through life with joy no matter the circumstances.

As the picture in this message shows that sunflower 🌼 I want to remind you that we are each our own type flower 🌺 🌸🌷🌻 created differently in Gods image. We can choose to be the best type of “flower” that we are. To influence in our sphere, to brighten others lives and most importantly to be grateful for the type of flower and beauty that we each get to share. God wants us to GROW WHERE WE ARE PLANTED. 💛🥹 🌷To live in gratitude daily for our blessings. To see all of the good that we have. To count our blessings and from there, be able to lift and help others as well.

So today, Choose godliness. Choose Contentment in the power that Christ provided. Choose to rise above comparison and conflict, and instead walk in peace. For when our hearts rest in God, we find not only contentment—but true and lasting joy.

Tonight in class, we will have a beautiful meditation, focused on contentment and gratitude. Here’s a little mindfulness exercise to help you.

Sit in silence, take a few deep breaths.

Move your attention gently through your life:

• Your breath, your body, your shelter, your loved ones, your faith.

• For each, pause and whisper: “Thank You, Lord.” This is our goal for the week. To practice it daily if we can. 🥰🙏🏼

This shifts the mind from what’s missing to what’s already given. This is a blessing to those of us who can practice it today.

Love you all and hope that you can make it to class tonight to release stress and do something amazing for your body, mind and spirit. Hope to see you there.

Love,

Lili 🌸

The world can feel overwhelming. Each day seems to bring more noise, more heartache, more uncertainty. Sometimes the heaviness around us makes its way inside of us, and we find ourselves weighed down—not just by the world’s troubles, but also by our own problems and the way in which we speak to ourselves. We become our own harshest critics, telling ourselves that we aren’t enough, that we’ll never measure up, or that somehow God’s love is too far away. We let the energy around us bring us down and we allow the heaviness to affect our every day life. 🙁

But the truth is, none of that comes from God. The adversary would love nothing more than to see us forget who we truly are. He wants us to live in misery every day. He wants us to feel heavy, unhappy, and to be critical of ourselves and others. Heavenly Father, on the other hand, always speaks to us with love. He reminds us to protect ourselves from the evil one through prayer. He wants us to know that He LOVES US. He reminds us of our divine identity as His sons and daughters. President Russell M. Nelson has taught, “Nothing is more liberating, more ennobling, or more crucial to your individual progression than knowing who you really are and knowing what God is counting on you to become.”

When we remember that we are children of God, the lens through which we see ourselves changes. Instead of focusing on our weaknesses, we begin to see that we are learning, growing, and becoming. We can see that the challenges we face are sometimes the most cleansing and purifying experiences we can have in our lives. We can choose to turn the focus away from the negative to allow God to purify, strengthen us and teach us. Instead of repeating negative messages to ourselves, we can practice speaking words of light! ☀️—reminders that God is patient with us, that He delights in our efforts, and that He sees our eternal potential. That we may become able to fully protect and shield ourselves from the enemy and instead focus on inviting light, love and peace to be with us. So, let’s practice changing the focus of our lives for it to become a blessing and not to be something that hurts us.

Changing Our Focus

Here are a few ways we can shift our focus when the world feels heavy:

1. Speak with kindness to yourself. When you make a mistake or feel discouraged, ask: “What would Heavenly Father say to me right now?” How would my Savior calm my heart right now? He would never shame you—He would encourage you. Replace your inner criticism with His voice of love. ❤️

2. Fill your mind with God’s word. Daily scripture study brings light and power. As we set a little time aside to come to Him in prayer and to read and listen yo His words, we will feel His strength coming into our lives. The Savior taught, “In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). His promises can become anchors of hope in our thoughts. HE IS OUR ANCHOR. ⚓️ & In Him we can find daily joy. 🙏🏼💛

3. Focus on gratitude and joy. President Nelson reminded us, “The joy we feel has little to do with the circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the focus of our lives.” Choosing to notice God’s hand—even in small and simple ways—brings joy into daily living. Can you change your focus right now? Just by expressing gratitude for the blessings that you have today? 😭

4. Remember your purpose. Life is not just about surviving the storms. It’s about becoming more like Christ through them. When we keep an eternal perspective, the trials of life are not wasted—they refine us. The hard challenges we experience are opportunities for us to grow in different areas. These are not “punishments” from God. All of us, even the most faithful in this life have to experience some of the hardest challenges. But we know that in the end, if we endure it well with God by our side, we will see that all of the things we go through will give us experience and be for our good. You never know who you’re meant to bless or help based on the challenges you’ve experienced or will experience. We just have to remember in the living God that will help us through. In protecting the light within us and in remembering that we have a purpose in this life. God has a plan for your life. Trust Him and keep moving forward in His light and divine wisdom for your life. 🤍

Living with Purpose and Joy

Heavenly Father didn’t send us here to be swallowed by fear, shame, or despair. He sent us here to learn to live in joy, to discover His love, and to prepare to return to Him. The Holy Ghost whispers peace and truth, reminding us that God has not abandoned us. He is with us in the quiet moments, strengthening us to keep going.

So when the world feels heavy, lift your thoughts heavenward. Remind yourself of your divine nature. Replace the negative self-talk with God’s truth: You are loved. You have infinite divine worth and you are His child.

As we choose to focus on God, His love, and His plan for us, we find that the weight of the world grows lighter. We begin to live with a better purpose, filled with peace and joy that no amount of chaos can take away. We know in whom we trust and we focus on protecting that light and being a light to others instead. 💛

Our goal for the week is to check our inner thoughts, words and emotions. See them from a distance and ask yourself if those things align with what your loving Father in Heaven would speak to your heart and mind right now. Take a moment to connect to God and just feel His presence. Try to change the focus of your internal lens this week by placing your focus on God and on what He wants you to think about and to go and do. The more we’re able to check in on ourselves and allow God to help us…The more anchored we will feel and gratitude, joy, light and peace will flow into our lives. That’s the indescribable peace of God. ♥️

I invite you to come to class tonight to let go of your stress, to have a moment to think about your connection to your body, mind and spirit. Allow yourself to let go of the heaviness and instead fill yourself with strength for your body, peace for your mind and joy for your spirit. 💕

Love you all and hope to see you tonight at 7pm!

Love,

Lili 🌸

The world around us can feel heavy, uncertain, loud, and chaotic. It’s heartbreaking to watch the news and see all the commotion and division—not only in our country, but throughout the entire world.

We often forget that we live in a beautiful world that God created for us. Our time on this earth is short, and while we are here, our focus should be on leaving it better than we found it. We should strive to live lives that radiate peace, love, faith, compassion, and light—adding goodness to the lives of those around us and leaving the world a little bit better because we were here. 💛

When our hearts feel heavy, we have the choice of filling it with more of the voices of the world, or to come to God. This morning, I chose to make time to be alone with God. As I prayed while I asked God to bring comfort to my heavy heart. I sat outside and found myself drawn to the trees, the water, the sun, the birds, and the sky. I asked God to give me the peace my soul needed. And I felt His words come into my heart saying:

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.

Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” (John 14:27)

Instantly, tears came to my eyes. I thanked God for reminding me that my peace will not come from the world—it will come from HIM. ♥️ He reminded me not to let my heart be troubled or afraid, but to remember His promise:

“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace.

In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)

In times like these, peace may feel hard to find. But that is when we must come to Christ, making time to be still and alone with Him, so we can truly experience the peace that only God can give directly to our souls. Today, I was reminded again to turn off the voices of the world and to listen to God’s voice instead. 🥹

So, if you are feeling like me today, I invite you to quiet the noise of the world and focus on listening to God. His words and the personal communication you have with Him will heal you far more deeply than anything else.

The scriptures teach us that in the last days, “men’s hearts shall fail them,” and that “all things shall be in commotion,” and fear will come upon all of us. But we can be prepared if we protect our minds, hearts, and souls by filling them with God’s word, keeping His commandments, seeking forgiveness, and turning our actions toward what He would have us do. ❤️ As children of God, we are all called to be loving, kind, and to be true peacemakers. 🌎 When we live this way, we carry the light of God to others and that peace that surpasses all understanding in our hearts will be felt by those around us. 💛

I hope you can experience this peace for yourself. The problems may not be taken away. The world may continue to be in commotion :(…But I promise that as you quiet your heart and mind, God will provide you with the same peace He has given me today. The peace that surpasses anything the world can offer! I am so grateful for the reminder of His love—for me and for all of us as His children. 💖 God wants us to radiate love and peace toward others, not use our precious time on this earth creating contention etc. Instead we want to create in our hearts and souls a resting place for His peace to dwell. To dwell within us, to dwell in our homes and in any place where we may be.

Let us protect the peace that our Creator gives us—not the fragile peace the world offers, but the eternal peace that comes only through knowing that we have God’s presence in our lives. 🤍

❤️ This week, our goal is to turn off the voices of the world and focus on listening to God’s voice.

So, take a moment to let Christ comfort your heavy heart. Let Him be the voice you listen to today. Let Him speak peace to your heart and mind. His Spirit may whisper softly, it’s not a loud voice but it will pierce your heart and guide you. Let Him tell you what you need to hear. Let Him forgive your mistakes and heal the places in your heart where love has been lacking.

Allow Him to bless you with strength and to be with you in your inner oasis. 💛 Let His love, His peace, and His blessings renew you.

Remember—God wants you present in this very moment, grateful for the breath that you have today. Ask Him to help you focus on the beauty of His creations, to strengthen your relationships, and to fill your heart, mind, and soul with peace, health, strength, and love. 💛 In return, you will be able to lift and bring light to others as well. 💞

I pray that your heart will be comforted today, as mine was. I pray that you will hear God’s words as He promises you His peace. Focus on the good, on your blessings, on how you can bless others and on guarding your inner peace through Christ as you strive to be the peacemaker He needs us to be. God knows what is in your heart, and He will help you as you come to Him. Take it one moment at a time. Find peace in this moment, right here and now. and continue to invite peace and to flow in it from one moment to the next. 💛

Tonight in class, we will release stress and strengthen ourselves physically, mentally, and spiritually. Our meditation will be focused on inner peace. Can’t wait to do this for ourselves. I hope you’ll join us and feel the difference. See you at 7pm! 💖🥰

With love,

Lili 🌸

This week I have felt impressed to think about wisdom. Every time I opened my scriptures this week, I read about wisdom. I love those moments when God speaks to us through His words and it feels like it’s exactly what we’re meant to hear.

As I thought about wisdom this week, I realized how easily influenced we are by the world around us. The world is constantly shouting and throwing its opinions at us. The “wisdom” of the world isn’t always the wisdom that comes from God. We become consumed by what we watch, read, and listen to. But is there always wisdom in that? Sadly, we tend to think that wisdom can only come from knowledgeable people, and we forget that we ourselves are fully capable of recognizing and receiving wisdom. The wisdom that God wants to provide is meant for each step of our lives.

The question is: are we willing to disconnect from our phones and distractions, and be willing to just stop, listen, and seek higher wisdom for our lives? Are we willing to hear what God has for us—and most importantly, are we willing to act on the impressions and inspiration we receive?

How amazing that we have a God who is willing to listen to us, to be our friend, and who is ready to help us. God truly wants each one of us to seek His wisdom and not the wisdom of the world. Think about how incredible it would feel to hear and feel God directly guiding YOU! ❤️

In Proverbs 4:1 He tells us: “Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.”

In Proverbs 2:1–11 He tells us:

1 My son (or daughter), if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;

2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;

3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;

4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;

5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.

6 For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.

8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.

9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.

10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;

God wants us to remember how important it is to gain wisdom and understanding for ourselves! He wants to provide and fill us with understanding during our challenges and difficulties, and to help us gain wisdom one step at a time.

As you think about your life today, take a moment to ponder where you’re “stepping.” Do you feel like you’re headed in the right direction? Do you need more light on your path? More wisdom? 🤍

Trust that God is ready to give you the wisdom you need. In James 1:5 He tells us: “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.”

When we come to God and ask in faith, believing in Him, we will see that He does provide wisdom directly to us. We don’t need technology or the world to tell us what to do when our hearts can feel directly from God what is wise. Through wisdom we gain understanding, and through understanding we create the action necessary to go and do what God is telling us. ❤️

Our invitation for today is to seek wisdom directly from God. Set aside some time to go outside and be in nature for a moment. Breathe and be present. Turn the world off and turn your heart, mind, and soul to God in prayer and faith, asking Him to provide you with the wisdom you need for today or for your next step. Then just listen to the feelings of your heart. That peace and that love you’ll feel will come directly from Him. He will speak to your soul, and you’ll gain your own wisdom directly from God! How amazing is that?!?! Nothing in the world can bring more happiness than knowing there’s a God who LOVES YOU, IS LISTENING, and IS WILLING TO GIVE YOU WHAT YOU NEED. 💛

Hope you can make it to class tonight at 7:00pm to come together, release stress, strengthen ourselves, and have an amazing meditation focused on receiving wisdom. 🥰

Let’s do this! Love you all and hope to see you there!

Love,

Self-reliance is not just about standing on our own—It’s about standing with God and aligning our lives with His light so we can live with peace, strength, and purpose. 💛

The Savior taught that if we build on a firm foundation, “the winds and the floods” cannot shake us. That’s why we can’t to depend on people, things and situations “to be right” for us to “feel good.”

We have to strive to be emotionally self reliant. We’ve learned that the mind is like a garden: if we plant good seeds, we will reap peace, clarity, and abundance. Together, these truths show us that becoming self-reliant is a sacred journey of partnership with God and with our divine DNA.

Here are some steps that we can take today to grow stronger in these important areas of our lives. 💪🏼

🌿 Emotionally: Practice gratitude and compassion. Pause in moments of stress, breathe deeply, and remember that you are not your emotions—they’re like visitors, just passing by. They’re not your identity. Replace fear with faith and resentment with forgiveness. And like we talked about last week. Allow Christ to help you with your emotions and your thoughts. ❤️

💡 Mentally: Guard your thoughts as treasures. Feed your mind uplifting words, scriptures, and pure knowledge. As the Prophet Paul taught, “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Each positive thought is a step toward freedom. Listen to good things, watch good things. Keep your mind focused on gratitude, joy, & counting your blessings.

💪 Physically: Care for your body as a temple. Nourish it with wholesome food, move it daily, and rest it with intention. Strength in the body gives strength to the spirit as well. Don’t forget to find joy in the movement and the exercise that you bring to your body. Love your body and express gratitude for all of the amazing things it it does for you daily. 🫶🏼

🙏 Spiritually: Connect daily with God through prayer, meditation, and scripture. In stillness, listen for His voice. As we covenant with Him and live in harmony with eternal laws, He adds His power to our efforts. Remind yourself of your relationship with God! Know in your heart that HE LOVES YOU & WANTS THE BEST FOR YOU!! You can do all things through Christ and He will be with you from one moment to the next.

💰 Financially: We can focus more on living more simply, not comparing ourselves to other or the unrealistic expectations of the world around us. We can live in daily gratitude for what we have and we can take steps to avoid unnecessary debt, pay off what we can and save what we can as well. I once heard someone say, “abundance is not just about wealth—it is about using what we have with wisdom and generosity. God multiplies the offerings of a faithful heart.”

So, for today, let’s choose one small step in each area that we can strengthen and work on. We can choose to plant the good seed in our mind to have positive thoughts. We can choose to take the walk or come to class tonight. We can say the prayer with more intention. We can save the dollar. Or choose to be patient with others, write a kind thought. It’s in the small, steady actions that we take that we create a foundation of peace and freedom.

As we walk this path, we do not become self-reliant to be alone—we do it so we can lift others, serve with joy, and stand strong with God.

Hope that you can make it to class tonight and allow your body, mind and spirit to feel strengthened and renewed. Love you all and hope to see you tonight! 🥰💖

Love,

Every day, thoughts flow through our minds like a constant stream. Some are uplifting, while others weigh us down. We allow our minds to go back in the past to “re-live it” or we think about the future and about what may or may not happen. :/

Our thoughts take a lot of our mental energy, they take our time and influence how we feel and react daily. We often forget that we can actually choose what to think about. We forget to be HERE, right now, instead of allowing our minds to be stuck in past or future thinking. Instead, we can choose to focus on inviting what would be the best thought to have at this very moment. 💛

The scriptures remind us in: Proverbs 23:7, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he,” Our thoughts shape us! So, shouldn’t we try to make our thoughts the best they can be daily?

Philippians 2:5 also says: “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus”. The Savior invites us to turn to Him when negative or destructive thoughts cloud our hearts. He is the one who can help us replace those thoughts with light and peace. 💖

As much as we want to present and live in the present sometimes our minds just want to bring up all of these thoughts and we have to help ourselves through those moments. I actually had an opportunity to practice that this week. I’m thankful for the wisdom that I gained and I wanted to share it with you. I had a few negative thoughts that kept coming to my mind and I felt like all of these negative feelings would rush right back to my mind all over again 😖 I didn’t like what I was feeling. So, I decided to ask God to help me through it and to be with me during that thought. I asked God to guide me and to help move me away from the negative thoughts. I asked God to teach me instead what im meant to learn from that thought and to help me know what I should focus on instead.

As I was thinking about the Savior being with me during even to the point of seeing the Savior standing next to me in my thoughts…I notices that He was able to guide me to have way MORE LOVE and COMPASSION for myself and for those involved in the thoughts that I was having. I felt my feelings toward the people involved change from negative to now being compassionate, kind and to even extend LOVE to them! Only having God with me in my mind, helping me heal the situation internally was truly amazing and exactly what I needed. 🥲

How amazing that God was able to help me change what once was a negative thought, to now becoming a thought that allows me to have more forgiveness, kindness, compassion and even love for those involved and for myself. It’s something that happened in the past, but God is allowing me to HEAL the thoughts in my mind through compassion. & in healing the thoughts, I heal myself. This in turn allowed me to feel more peaceful and calm in the present moment. It reminded me that I can trust that God would help me even in ALL THINGS! Including in my internal struggles and in healing my thoughts, my mind and my heart. 💖

So, take a moment to think about a situation that you would like to fix in your mind. Take some deep breaths and allow God or The Savior Jesus Christ to come and be right there next to you in that thought. What would the Lord tell you about yourself and about the situation? Or what would He tell you about the person involved? What is the message God would want you to learn from this experience? and how can you walk away a better person after having had Christ be involved in this thought? How can He help you heal it? And instead turn it into a thought that is healed.

Doing this exercise allows you to then come back to the present feeling more peaceful and able to now invite more light into your heart and mind at this very moment. Now you can ask yourself “What does God want me to feel at this very moment?” 🤍 And juts stay there for a minute to really feel what comes to your mind and heart. Continue breathing until you feel fully at peace.

God wants us to remember that we are eternal beings with divine DNA flowing through us…We are pure at the core. When we pause and step back, we see that negative thoughts don’t define us; they are simply passing clouds. With awareness, we can choose not to feed them, but we can choose instead to either let them drift away from us or allow God to be present in that thought and to HELP US HEAL IT! ❤️

How amazing that we can do that for our own minds? The world around us doesn’t even think about this type of insight…..Only those of us who are working on ourselves will find the little bits of divine wisdom that God shares with us and I’m so thankful that God allowed me to have this inspiration that blessed me soooo much this week. I testify that He does provide abundantly for all of us. Enough to even heal our internal minds and thoughts & to make them better for us. 🥹 He truly is a healer and we don’t have to be attached to our negative thoughts.

Like a muscle, 💪🏼 we can train our minds and thoughts to be better and more aligned to love, peace, compassion, gratitude and all that is good and that comes from our creator. ♥️

So, let’s make it our practice this week. Instead of getting stuck in thoughts of “I’m not enough, or negative thoughts,” We will choose to shift to “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13). Instead of thinking “This situation will never change,” we can reframe it to “God can work miracles, even in small ways, in His time.”

We need to TRUST IN GOD! & in the spirit that leads us to do good! The spirit of Christ whispers truth and peace when we align our thoughts with God: John 14:27 sayas “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid..”

As we invite Christ into our inner dialogue, He doesn’t just silence the darkness—He replaces it with His light, with hope, with peace, with His LOVE and with the reminder of who we really are: beloved children of God.🥹❤️

✨ Here’s a Simple Practice/Goal for us this week.

• When a negative thought arises, pause.

• Breathe and say, “Christ, be with me here.”

• Reframe the thought into one rooted in truth, love, compassion, peace and possibility.

• Let gratitude fill the space where fear or judgment once lived. And allow God to bring to your mind the best thought to have at this very moment.

With time, we learn that we don’t have to battle our thoughts alone. Christ walks with us, transforming heaviness into peace, fear into faith, and doubt into love.❤️

Can’t wait to see you tonight at 7pm! To not only release stress but to also do something amazing for our Body, Mind and Spirit. 🥹💖 Please invite anyone who you think would benefit from this class. Tonight our meditation will be all about changing those negative thoughts into positive thoughts instead. 💪🏼 🥰💛

Love you all and hope to see you there!

I’ve been thinking a lot about how we sometimes get stuck on having the same thoughts and the same patterns and how we do the same things over and over. We seem to hold on to stories, grudges and pains for years and years.

We don’t question things, we just believe the thoughts that we have created about our situations and we continue to hold on to pain, dissatisfaction, disappointments, judgments etc. Unfortunately, we continue to choose to carry the pain, hurt and negative thoughts and feelings throughout our days and years.

Many of us experience different challenges and circumstances. Maybe we have physical struggles, financial challenges, the loss of loved ones, stress, relationships, marriages or people that are difficult, we can struggle with addictions or negative self talk etc…These are some examples of circumstances that we may experience throughout our lives. We may have unmet goals and dreams that haven’t happened yet or that maybe never happened. But WHY DO WE CHOOSE TO HOLD ON TO THE PAINFUL THOUGHTS?

We seem to want to wait for our “Golden Ticket” because we think that it will make us happy when we have “blank”…But we forget that happiness is a choice and we can choose to be happy today, even in this very moment. There’s no need to wait for the ideal life, situation or relationship to be perfect for us to feel at peace. The truth is that we will never have things working just the way we want in all of the areas of our lives. We need to be able to adapt to whatever is happening and to RISE ABOVE OUR CIRCUMSTANCES.

Take a moment to think about some of the negative stories you have told yourself over the years. Question those thoughts for a minute to see if these stories or thoughts have been helpful to you in any way at all.

I believe that most of us can recognize that those negative thoughts and stories have not been fun to carry for days, months or years. So, what are some things that we can do to overcome and rewire our thoughts a little better to be a little bit more elevated and to rise above the circumstances that we have had to experience.

As you read this, I invite you to create a stronger desire in your heart, mind and soul to ELEVATE your thoughts to a higher level. One that is more connected to your soul and to your divine creator who is the Father of your soul.

Think for a moment about what God would tell you if you shared these thoughts with him? I believe that the first thing He would tell you is that HE LOVES YOU!!! ❤️ He sees you & loves your efforts in all that you do to try to become a better version of yourself. He would tell you to not be fearful but to only BELIEVE IN HIM TO HELP YOU OVERCOME THESE THOUGHTS & FEELINGS. He would remind you that you CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS YOU. & with His help and your desire to LET GO of the negativity that sneaks into your life, you will be better able to overcome this one day at a time.

Praying and asking God to help us overcome these negative thoughts, allows us to turn our attention away from ourselves and to allow divine healing to come into our minds and hearts . Handing things over to God is the biggest thing that we can do for ourselves. so practice daily prayer and share your thoughts with your creator who is ready to help you overcome any negativity in your life .

We can also take advantage to create opportunities for us to slow down our minds, by breathing deeply, closing our eyes, and allowing ourselves to relax . We can invite peace to surround us and to cover us. Even to the point that we choose to hold onto peace rather than negativity. When we can remind ourselves that we get to choose between negativity or peace. We can CHOOSE to hold onto peace. That is an amazing gift that we give to ourselves and that allows us to elevate ourselves to a better and higher place.

We can also create an opportunities to be mindful and present in this moment. Allowing ourselves to enjoy what we see, what we hear, what we smell, taste or touch. Bringing our attention to the present often helps us to CLEAR our minds of the thoughts. Practicing this allows us to be more present, centered and connected to divine wisdom that can help and inspire us. Allowing for a moment of breathing and quietness also might inspiration to flow into our minds as to ways in which God can inspire us to overcome whatever we may be going through at the time.

We can then take a moment to journal our thoughts and write down the inspiration that comes. This will also help us to process our emotions better. Journaling can help us gain new insights and allow us to know ourselves better and to be able to recognize what are some of the things that we can let go of or work on.

Next, is Physical Activity. Exercise has been proven to help us improve our mood and thoughts. Notice how much happier you feel after exercising. This is all fuel for our brain and thoughts as well. So, choose a daily activity that you can do and notice how much happier you feel.

Another important practice to help our thoughts is daily GRATITUDE. The moment you start comparing yourself to others, choose to be grateful for what you have instead. Turn your attention away from comparison and start counting as many blessings as you can. Gratitude is a powerful tool to overcome negative thoughts.

If some of your negative thoughts have to do with the way that you speak about yourself . Then, try practicing a few Positive Affirmations per day. Choose to fight that negative self talk with positive words and affirmations that can help shift our mindset. Even if you don’t believe the affirmation that you’re saying about yourself, just continue practicing it until your brain understands understand that you want to be more positive about the way that you speak to yourself .

And if you can say those affirmations aloud, then that’s even better! It may seem weird to talk to ourselves aloud 🤷🏻‍♀️ haha but when we’re trying to rewire new pathways in our brain, we need to be intentional about the way that we speak to ourselves.

Remember to be compassionate, loving, forgiving and kind to yourself. ❤️ Think about how you would speak to a friend if they shared those negative thoughts with you, or think about how you would speak to yourself, if that thought inside you came from “little 4 year old you” practice that level of kindness when you’re speaking to yourself. Choose to regularly remind yourself of your strengths, positive qualities, to believe in yourself and in the love that God has for you and the love that you want to have for yourself.

Another important aspect of our thoughts is our relationships with others and how we can experience difficult relationships throughout our lives. One of the best ways for us to elevate ourselves in this area is to make a conscious effort to genuinely want to forgive and let go of the past. Reminding ourselves that it is a gift for US when we let go of the pain that we have held onto for years.

People may hurt us or not necessarily be the way “I would like” But we can also choose to be grateful for those people and those opportunities that we encounter. They’re definitely not fun situations but we can choose to view them differently. As a way to teach and polish us & to be better. These are opportunities for us to learn HOW WE WANT TO REACT TO OUR SITUATIONS.

Like my friend told me one time, “the pearl doesn’t become the pearl without the irritation that the sand creates inside it” So, take the opportunities and difficulties and allow yourself to become the pearl. Learning form the (irritating) situations that come into your life and elevating your thoughts to no longer want things to be “eye for an eye” but to rise to a higher level where you no longer have bad feelings toward those who “hurt us or don’t act the way we would want” but instead you’re able to cleanse your heart, let go, burry the past and reach a more Christlike level where we feel TRUE CHRISTLIKE LOVE FOR ALL OF HIS CHILDREN. Regardless of what they do or not do. So, choose to elevate yourself to a new level of forgiveness. Letting go and choosing love instead. Burry the pain, the disappointments, judgements or dissatisfactions and CHOOSE CHRISTLIKE LOVE INSTEAD.

Think about what God would tell you about those thoughts or negative people or situations. Really, see it in your mind as you let go and burry the pains of negative thoughts and self talk that you’ve created or carried throughout the years. Allow yourself to see yourself in the presence of your creator, giving him all of your pain, your grudges, and all of your negative self talk. And instead, allow yourself to feel the peace of having a Savior who takes IT ALL FROM YOU. Where you truly feel that you can let go of it all and instead be completely covered in Gods love and peace.

The purpose of this message is for us to choose to ELEVATE ourselves to a higher level. Our whole reason for being here on this earth is to PREPARE TO MEET GOD. That day will come sooner or later, and each day that passes just means we’re getting closer to that day. So, why not try to rise above the things that bring negativity into our lives. Why not let go of the competitiveness, comparison and negativity of this world. Why not let go of the distractions a little more and elevate ourselves spiritually, physically and mentally instead. Why not choose to focus on bringing in all of the positive and peaceful energy into our lives. To focus more and MORE ON JOY & GRATITUDE. To give MORE LOVE. To spend more of our energy and thoughts in nature, hobbies, making memories with family and loved ones and finding opportunities to serve and help others. 🫶🏼

So, here’s the reason why we practice meditation every Thursday night in class. Is to help us train our minds to slow down more often. So that when the negative thoughts arise, we know some of the things that we can do to help us calm down, relax, and bring our attention to the present moment. The more that we practice quieting our minds, feeling gratitude, breathing, replacing negative thoughts with positive affirmations and inviting more love and peace into our lives. The more we practice, the better we will be able to handle the difficult situations that arise. & we will be better able to acknowledge and recognize the thoughts that don’t serve us.

So, choose to ELEVATE YOURSELF TODAY IN MIND, BODY, & SPIRIT. Choose a higher level of viewing the world around you and your circumstances. It is all in within you. You are surrounded by divine light and the divine light is not only around you but within you. There is so much untapped divine light within us that we need to try to awaken more of that 💛 within ourselves. So that we may flow in more peace, gratitude and love each day and truly have a strong desire to be humbly elevated in Gods way so that we mash choose better thoughts, words, and actions.

CLASS IS CANCELLED TONIGHT but we’ll resume again next week. Our goal for this week is to choose an area where we want to ELEVATE ourselves. Elevate our thoughts, words, and actions and to be more aligned with God. Please know that I’m here for you if you want to tell me about your experiences. 🥹🫶🏼

Love you all & let’s do our best to care for ourselves, physically, mentally and spiritually. Hugs & can’t wait to see you all next week! 🥰💖🙏🏼

Love,

Lili
