7 Courses to Full Living

I’ve been asked many times how to live a joyful live, how to have self esteem and how in the world I’m so happy. Those are big questions and I think most everything boils down to what you’re saying to yourself in your head. But sometimes you just need a road map or some kind of guide to help you through the rough patches or just to give you a step by step process to follow.

When I was doing my cooking show I had a “7 Courses to Fullness” that replicated the 7 chakras.   After the live event today, thought I’d share this.

  1. Have your daily In\Out – (Base or Root Chakra)
    • Eat well, feed your body well
    • Eliminate well.  That means all toxins, including toxic people or environments
    • It is okay and necessary to eliminate, otherwise you’re full of ____
  2. Remember to PP – (Sacral Chakra)
    • Practice.  Do something you love and practice it.
    • Have fun
    • Play.  Have playtime.  Do something fun that brings you back to your center
  3. Parent Well - (Solar Plexus Chakra)
    • Take care of yourself and your children
    • Save Money
    • Parent yourself well
    • Be a good example to your children (even your inner child)
    • Make sure your children (including yourself) are fed, clothed, housed, protected and safe.
  4. Love Well – (Heart Chakra)
    • Love yourself well
    • Love others well
    • Learn about loving
  5. Watch Your Mouth – (Throat Chakra)
    • Watch what you’re saying in your head
    • Watch what you’re saying in moment of panic and/or anxiety
    • Be sure to be able to say that you love yourself
  6. Feed Your Brain – (Third Eye Chakra)
    • Learn new things
    • Learn new pathways to healing and freedom
  7. Stay Connected – (Crown Chakra)
    • Facebook is not the only place – but there’s a Survivor Manual fan page on FB!
    • Come out of hiding and share your Light
    • Connect to loved ones and liked-minded people
    • Share

    Angela Shelton is a hero (in addition to being the squishiest goddess ever!)! Thank you, thank you for being with us on your Special Sundays and secondly–thank you, thank you for sharing this beautiful outline yesterday.

    Since the woman who gave birth to me is my main perpetrator, I have never known how to mother myself and how to prioritize my needs. This is the information I have always needed!! *Happy Dance!*

    The way I see it:

    Joining the Army of Angels has kept me choosing life when I need it the most.

    And now, this beautiful outline gives me the chance to choose wholeness and joy when I’m most ready for it.

    Now I choose not to just keep breathing–but I choose to learn to breathe in life!!

    You keep on rocking it, Angela Shelton!

    I have a question for you…. I was dating a guy, and 5 days after beginning the relationship, he starts talking about how the baby I’m pregnant with is his son too and how we should get married so his name can be on the baby’s birth certificate and all this. I got a really bad gut feeling that something was off with him, and I ended things because I realized I would not trust him with my son, and didn’t want him anywhere near him once he’s born.

    Am I overreacting? Or was my gut feeling right?

    That is creepy creepy. You were correct to listen to your gut in my opinion. You never know but I say always error on the side of what your gut says. I’ve heard this scenario before. Once the baby was born the guy pleaded to take it to meet all his buddies and the mother thought that was weird too and said no. After much persisting about how much he wanted to show the baby off, she let him take her and the infant ended up being into a child porn ring. Again, you never know, but I say hooray that you listened to your gut.

    It’s also a sign of co-dependency and possible abuse in the future when they want to move very quickly.
