What’s in a Smile?

Wednesday, August 11th, 2010

“A smile on the face is a sign that the heart is at home.” Anonymous

The easiest way to invite fantastic opportunities into your life is to smile ( it’s also the best way to flip your mood from sour to sizzling!). As outlined in my earlier post, S.P.A.R.K.L.E. will take the sludge off your shine, open your heart and create connection in a nano second. This is the first of a 7 part series illuminating the specific ways you can get your sparkle on!

To begin with, let’s talk about smiling…
Smiling lights you up from the inside out. No matter what you look like flashing your pearly whites will always make you sparkle and your eyes twinkle. And it’s the quickest way to communicate your joy, happiness, love, friendliness and approachability.

On the flirtatious side, a smile is equivalent to a feminine lair—inviting a man into your space.

Universally, your smile has the ability to turn somebody’s day around.

Make it a part of your day, every day and you’ll see instant changes that you will love.

Smiling is always a win-win:-)

How to Love with Wild Abandon

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun FREE call Friday June 25th @ 9 a.m.

When you think about being in love do you have images of opening your heart with wild abandon or do you become contracted with fear? Do you dive in fully or do you test the waters?

Join me Friday and learn how you can open your heart and speak authentically to make awesome connections with not only your loved ones, but EVERYONE. It is what all of us crave – to love and be loved…but it isn’t always easy to match the desire with the appropriate action or words.

We are born with open hearts but as we experience life we often shut our hearts down. To flourish and develop as a compassionate and loving person we need to be receptive to love which means we need to live with an open, healthy heart. The heart is the most important organ in our body, also known as the Emperor in Chinese medicine, so love is the center of our lives.

When our hearts are open we are at peace with ourselves and with those around us and we feel harmoniously balanced within ourselves. When we are able to speak purely from our hearts we are communicating in a way that creates the relationships we want.

Hop on the call and learn:

  • How to open your heart chakra
  • Identify your pleasures
  • How to give voice to your feelings
  • #1 way we sabotage relationships
  • an exercise to help you love more deeply

…and so much more!

To love!

Relationship Sparkle: 7 Tips to Get Your Sparkle On!

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

Charisma is a sparkle in people that money can’t buy. It’s an invisible energy with visible effects.” ~ Marianne Williamson

Ever wonder where that fun-loving, sexy woman went? Yes, I’m talking about you! If you are anything like I was after I got married, you are involved with setting high goals and running towards them with aggressive obsession. And guess what, it’s easy to lose sight of who you are in such a paradigm.

My playful, feminine spirit was replaced with a rigid, controlling masculine mask. Yuck! But true. Is this you?

If you desire to be playful, sensual, enchanting but don’t remember how ( or maybe never learned) isn’t it time to connect with your feminine power? If you and your relationship have lost the “sparkle” don’t you want to get the sludge off your shine?

My tribe of beauties have made incredible transformations in their love life’s by following this simple 7-step formula that spells out S.P.A.R.K.L.E.

S…is for smile –  lights you up from the inside out.

P…is for passion – that effusive energy that screams, “I’m ALIVE”

A…is for attitude – allows you to connect, own and embrace the fullness of who you are

R…is for rumba – dancing and movement lets the feminine energy flow

K…is for know yourself – getting back to who you are means living authentically in your truth

L…is for laughter –  the sunshine of your soul and creates instant connection

E…is for embrace your enchantress – balancing your softness with your power

Go on now, get your SPARKLE ON!!!

How to Celebrate Memories…

Monday, June 7th, 2010

I was recently looking through my box of romantic gesture cards and came across a wonderful suggestion – a relationship memory jar. The idea being to fill it with little slips of paper on which you and your partner have both written memories of your relationship.

This is the perfect opportunity to include romantic quotes, things that were said that touched your heart, your wedding vows, your hopes and dreams for the future, the things you love most about each other; special moments you’ve shared.

Each morning when you get up or every evening before you go to bed, take one of the notes out of the jar and read it together.

This will help you renew your love as these sweet memories embed in your heart forever…

Relationship Communication: How to Say What’s in Your Heart

Saturday, June 5th, 2010

Do you have trouble expressing your heartfelt feelings?

Over the years of my coaching practice one of the issues I hear repeatedly from my clients is that either their mate doesn’t share their feelings or they are unable to say what is in their heart. They know if they could just get the communication flowing it would create so much more connection and intimacy. Ever feel this way?

Does this sound like you?

  • ·       You care deeply but just can’t bring the words to the surface
  • ·      You don’t trust your communication to convey exactly what you want it to
  • ·      You fear you won’t be completely understood
  • ·      You get frustrated that your words won’t carry the depth of your feelings
  • ·      You are used to stuffing your feelings and are afraid what will come out will be klunky and sound silly

If you answered yes to any of the above, believe me, you are in good company!

There is a fun and romantic solution I want to share with you…a dear friend introduced it to me years ago and not only have we both used it with success, so have many of my friends and clients.

So here’ what you do…take a blank tape/CD and record a song that tells your lover what’s in your heart and soul that you can’t quite say yourself.  Send it in an envelope sealed with a kiss….

If you want to encourage them to do the same, ask that they record a musical response and send the tape/CD back to you. Keep passing it between you until it’s full at which point you can set aside time to listen to the tape/CD together and create a very loving mood.

Commit to do this today!

I sure would like to know how it goes – please either comment below or send me your story at sherri@unleashyourself.com – can’t wait to hear what love songs you chose! xo

Sex and the City 2

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

Have you seen it yet?  You must, you MUST, YOU MUST!!  The fabulous four together again exploring the meaning of lasting love, soul sister bonds, and sexy adventures in the veiled land of Abu-Dhabi!

Yes I’m talking about Sex and the City 2. My dear friend Patti and I had been excitedly waiting for this movie to hit the silver screen and when it did we ran to be first in line on opening day…

Fashion, fun, gorgeous guys and lots of laughter – we loved it!

I especially loved Carrie’s awareness that even though she got the man of her dreams (Big), lived in a swanky NY apartment and had an enviable career after a few years of marriage her relationship was a little lack luster and needed to get its “SPARKLE” back. Hey, if Carrie and Big can lose their passion, anybody can!

Carrie kept looking for external excitement to bring her fulfillment in her relationship – to fill her up.  By the end of the movie she discovered the truth – appreciation, love, trust, gratitude, acceptance, honesty, respect for herself and her man bring back the sparkle to life.

This so spoke to our community of dazzling women – the importance of consciously creating authentic soul-to-soul connection on a consistent basis.

Also close to my heart and our sisterhood was the message that we need our girlfriends, whether single or married – our friends are the greatest support system we’ll ever know and a complete joy.

So do yourself a favor, grab your favorite gal pal(s) and treat yourself to this wonderful woman’s movie… let me know how YOU like it!

Xoxo

What are you waiting for?

Friday, May 28th, 2010

Interview Friday, May 28th @ 9 a.m. PST/noon EST with author Kristen Moeller

Click here to join the call…

I met Kristen two years ago at a Mark Victor Hansen Mega Book Publishing seminar when she was writing her book, Waiting for Jack. I am thrilled to honor Kristen in getting her book published, and making her incredibly important message available as of April! Congratulations Kristen!

The book is based on Kristen emailing Jack Canfield and waiting for his response…she became obsessed about hearing back from him and then like lightening was struck with the thought, “What am I waiting for? ! I’m putting my life on hold, giving my power away when I could be out there creating what I want.”

While reading Kristen’s book I started thinking how this applies to me, to you, to everyone. In particular I began reflecting on my experience with my coaching clients and students in my Discover How to Find & Own Your Playful Sexy Self – I see women of all ages and walks of life sitting back and waiting for their partner to take the lead to create the “sparkle” in their relationship. Do you dream of your guy turning into Don Juan and sweeping you off your feet? Or are you a slave to your never-ending to-do list thinking, tomorrow I’ll start living for me…

The reality is, you may be waiting forever and tomorrow may never come…creating deep feelings of anger and resentment, feeding beliefs that you are  ”not important” and “not enough” and that’ you’ll never have what you want.  This is baloney but it’s up to you to change, stop waiting and take the necessary steps to get “YOUR sparkle on”, letting it spill over into your love life for relationship magic!

Kristen will help you do that in today’s call by sharing her success secrets and tell you how to:

  • disrupt the ordinary so you can live an extraordinary life
  • break the cycle of “waiting”
  • give you the 6 principles you must know to live with passion
  • deal with that nagging voice that stops you
  • explain why we look outside ourselves for answers and how to stop
  • …and so much more

I invite you to hop on the call live this morning so you can ask Kristen your most pressing questions about how to start living with purpose in the moment.

Empower yourself with a clear-cut path so you can move forward excitement!

Let me know what changes you are making to design your life for living fully present! xo Sherri

Recipes for Love

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

If you are in the mood for a little romance I have a couple of wonderful “recipes” for you to get your love life cooking! All you need to do is enlist the power of scent.

For years, actually centuries, fragrant essential oils have been used for romance and seduction – this is nothing new.  In ancient Egypt and Rome, bathing with essential oils was part of the ritual of preparation for lovemaking. Particular oils were used to lure and allure… You all know what a renowned temptress Cleopatra was…well she used to scent the sails of her royal barge with rose water to seduce Mark Antony as she sailed to meet him.

The oils work with the olfactory lobe of the brain which is part of the limbic system, the same part of the brain that produces sexual desire. The oils have the ability to open the heart, relax the mind,  and stir the senses bringing you into a romantic, amorous state.

Create an evening of passion by mixing up these magic potions:

For a Romantic Evening…

Mix together:

  • 2 drops lavender oil
  • 3 drops ylang-ylang oil
  • 3 tablespoons apricot oil

OR

Mix together:

  • 1 drop of orange oil
  • 2 drops cedar oil
  • 2 drops clary sage oil
  • 2 drops of vanilla extract
  • 2 ounces of apricot oil

Use either of these love recipes to give your guy a sensual massage – Cleopatra has nothing on you!
