In this episode of the 'Finding Harmony' podcast, host Harmony Slater interviews abundance coach and dear friend, Sarah Walton. They're talking about ways to reframe our understanding of money and abundance, addressing the limiting beliefs we have around money, and how we can shift from a mindset of scarcity into one of abundance.
Sarah emphasizes that our sense of self-worth is the origin of true joy and abundance. And it can only be found within!
Often we look to money as a saviour figure, but it's actually a currency of energy, just like joy or love!
Sarah shares some helpful strategies for managing money and creating wealth. She also recounts her journey from growing up very poor to becoming a super successful abundance coach.
Harmony and Sarah discuss the importance of empowering women financially, because they believe that when more money is in the hands of women, it's beneficial for families and communities.
You'll feel so encouraged listening to this conversation and motivated to start cultivating a deeper connection to the abundant energy within!

Sunday Nov 26, 2023

With Thanksgiving behind us and Christmas coming up around the corner, I wanted to share some helpful tips for how we can use spiritual practices to help us through the holidays.
Did you know that research has shown that a single act of gratitude can produce an immediate 10% increase in happiness and a 35% decrease in symptoms of depression. Gratitude also increases positive neural pathways and helps to strengthen the immune system! (and that's something I think we can all get behind at this time of year!)
But there are other mind-body based practice we can do to help us have the kind of relationships and experiences we want during the holidays.
Cultivating spiritual wellness can have a profound impact on our lives.
Practices like yoga and mindfulness not only alleviate stress but also contribute to a stronger immune system and overall better health. Scientific evidence suggests that a calm mind can positively impact our body's cellular function and immune response.
Visualization is another powerful tool. Many scientific studies indicate that when we vividly imagine a situation, our brain processes it as if it were real. Athletes often use visualization techniques to enhance performance, and this principle applies to achieving success in every area of life whether personally or professionally. Visualizing goals and strategies can stimulate the brain to work towards achieving them in an effortless way!
In the fast-paced world, incorporating these practices—meditation for clarity, acknowledging the mind-body connection, leveraging visualization for goal attainment, and harnessing the power of sound vibrations—can lead to enhanced creativity, better decision-making, and a more resilient mindset, fostering success in both professional endeavors and personal fulfillment.
If you’d like to explore these practices more deeply and set yourself up for 2024, then be sure to join my…. Reflect & Project Retreat⁠!

Why Asana Isn’t Enough…

Sunday Nov 19, 2023

Sunday Nov 19, 2023

Many of us come to the practice feeling broken and struggle with an underlying sense that we’re just not enough. We seek validation by looking outside ourselves. We seek to do things right, to learn the “correct method” and toe the party line.
But when we truly slow down to feel what’s underneath all our striving and the patterns of perfectionism, we begin to see that it’s the system that’s broken, not us.
Worthiness is an inside job.
Once we get this.. I mean truly get it… It turns the game around. We can feel empowered within our lives and in our spiritual pursuits.
From the moment we’re born we’re trained to buy into the illusion that once we receive some kind of external validation, we’ll finally feel happy and complete.
Society teaches us that self-worth is determined by external factors such as our achievements, possessions, or how we are perceived by others.
The problem is our perception.
We keep projecting outward the love we wish to receive.
We're not broken, but our thoughts about ourselves are.
When we realize that no amount of praise or postures will ever be enough, we can start to transform our lives and they way we approach our practice.
We discover a new freedom in the practice yoga when we recognize that we’re already perfect, whole, and complete; there’s no where to get to, nothing to do, and nothing that needs to be any different than exactly as it is.
We can begin to practice on our own terms and authentically choose how we want to create a fulfilling life based on awakening to the fact we already have everything we need.
Remember, you are worthy, enough, seen, accepted, and loved just as you are.
