Fantasy Island...

Fantasy Island…

You may be too young to remember the TV show Fantasy Island, and if that’s so I’m sorry. It was great. Mr Roarke and Tattoo would work out people’s fantasy lives during their week-long stay at the Island.

Have you had fantasies? Maybe even ones that spiral down a dark path? You know, you had a fight with your friend or significant other and you start to create future conversations with them where you aren’t heard or understood. You get a voice mail and immediately think something is wrong. Your kids don’t come home on time and you start to think maybe they ARE dead in a ditch (be honest Moms, we know we do it). We have amazing, active, vivid imaginations. Why not use them in a direction that actually supports us in our dreams?

What is a dream you have for yourself that you just can’t seem to believe will come true? Something you have worked toward, but can’t seem to really make headway on it? Use that big, beautiful brain to imagine that dream being achieved. What does it look like, feel like, smell like, taste like? Make it as vivid and big and real as possible. Maybe throw in that it’s easy and even fun to achieve it. Now ask yourself, do you feel lighter or heavier after doing that? Do you feel lighter or heavier than when you go down the rabbit hole of doom?

I’ll be honest, this one is a challenge for me. I can start, but when I don’t focus my mind, it tends to look for Peter Cottontail’s home (aka the rabbit hole). So this is a muscle I can definitely work on.

Are you in?

Much love,
