The beauty you see in me is a reflection of you

~ Kerry Hanna ~ Leave a comment

By now you’ve probably heard about the Law of Attraction. But have you ever heard about the Law of Reflection?

It’s another Universal law stating that what we see ‘out there’ (in other people and in life) is also ‘in here’ (in us).

That we act as mirrors for one another.

So whatever I can see in you must also be in me.

Or as the great Sufi poet Rumi wrote 700+ years ago:

“The beauty you see in me is a reflection of you.”

The seeds you sow will grow

~ Kerry Hanna ~ 2 Comments

Have you ever heard the saying: the seeds you sow, grow? Or Tony Robbins’ version “energy flows where your focus goes?”

While some people may think all this energy talk is a bit woo-woo, I believe in it whole-heartedly.

It’s why I practice gratitude.

In my experience the more I focus on the things that light me up — really acknowledge them and feel grateful for them — the more they expand and grow.

Into something more beautiful than I could imagine.

Why silence is good for the soul

~ Kerry Hanna ~ 2 Comments

I love this image of the jellyfish in the sea. It makes me think of the word “silence.”

I was on vacation in Hawaii and was going scuba diving for the first time.

To say I was nervous going into the sea, with all my diving gear on, is an understatement.

That is until I reached the sandy ocean bottom.

If not now…when?

One of my favourite proverbs to help me move forward is:

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The next best time is now.

It makes me realize how easy it is for us to get stuck in the past.

“I should’ve planted that tree (followed that dream!) 20 years ago. I can’t believe I wasted all that time! What was I thinking?”

So we end up beating ourselves up.

For all the time we wasted and for what “could’ve been.”

Finding a balance between doing and being

~ Kerry Hanna ~ Leave a comment

How beautiful it is to do nothing, and then rest afterward. ~ Proverb

Lately I’ve been trying to find a balance between “doing” and “being.”

Balancing my time between the desire to do more of what I’m on this planet to do (coach more women!) with my opposite desire.

To rest and replenish my soul.

And nurture my creativity.

In a world that frequently pushes us to go faster and faster — and do more, more, more!! — resting isn’t always encouraged.
