J’adore la vie Week 11

January 3, 2013 by Heather

A Course in Miracles says there is no order in miracles. This means that no miracle is better than another. All miracles are equal opportunities to change our perceptions from fear to love. When we change our perceptions to love, we are in a state of bliss. This state of bliss allows us to truly believe in this concept of Oneness in miracles. For example, if you wake up one morning and your first thought is, “I love you, body,” that is just as much of a miracle as you meeting, say, Oprah later that evening. 

This is part of the reason why I created this space for us to share our moments of joy. Every single J’adore la vie moment is a miracle. They are all equally beautiful and that makes them equal miracles. This means we are all equal miracle workers. Holla!

Quote of the Week: “You are exactly who you are meant to be.” ~ Heather Waxman #jadorelavie

Linz teaches us how life really can be one, big #jadorelavie moment.

“My j’adore la vie moment came tonight when I got home from happy hour with my best friend.  We were talking about several events coming up in anticipation of her June wedding and then I came home, joked around with my husband, did a bunch of split jumps and handstands while he tried to capture it on camera (is this normal??), and then I just laid on the floor thinking, ‘Wow, life is good. J’adore la vie.’ Itz the little moments in life that are the absolute best!”

Meg witnessed true love and felt it reflected back to her.

“Here’s my holiday #jadorelavie moment: seeing my brother celebrate his first Christmas with his wife… I’ve never seen him happier and the love is contagious!”

Annie got her #plantPOWER veggie fuel ready for the week!

Hilary chilled out with a soy latte while looking for a new vegan-friendly recipe. (P.S. – Thank you for teaching me what a Hoppin’ John is!)

Brittiney‘s brunch spread reminded her of how much she really loves her paleo lifestyle.

Kasey and I gave each other the greatest gift: soul sister love!

Lucie stood and admired the view after a walk around her neighborhood. 

Sometimes, a simple salad is enough to make us grateful. Meg loves fueling her body with clean foods! It makes her feel strong and grateful.

Kelsa received this work of art from her precious nephew.

Franny says it all. Amen, soul sister!

Lori snuggled up to her not-so-much-a-puppy-anymore! ;-) Jax is getting so big!

Mary Kate was inspired to create Kimberly Snyder’s Dharma’s Kale Salad. She is loving the alkaline-based concepts that Kim teaches, and her body loves her back for it!

Claire took a moment to soak up the beauty of the snow-soaked trees.

Kasey reflected on 2012 and became filled with gratitude! She accomplished so much and wants others to realize they can accomplish whatever they desire.

Annie lives the miracle mindset. Only love is real. Read this and weep joyful tears, my babes!

After lots of rest, veggies, and water, Sloane kicked the flu to the curb and went to hang with her best friend!

Lakshmi cuddled up with her little men!

Cait experienced a breathtaking sunset while vacationing in Florida with her family.

The first thing I do in the morning is meditate. It opens my heart and makes me see all of the love that I have to give. Starting our day with something that centers us and preps our minds for a love-centered day is like breathing: it is essential. I am forever grateful for the daily #jadorelavie moments I have with my breathe, my soul, and my body every morning. The mantra this day was simple. I said to the Universe, “I’m listening.”

I love you all. Have a beautiful, blessed day.

Stay lovely,
Heather
