BLOG 334: THE SURPRISING SIGN THAT TOOK MY BREATH AWAY THIS WEEK

Let me explain more. I’ve been doing this practice for a few years now-  asking for signs to check if I’m on the right path. You might be wondering who I’m asking for the sign from. Honestly, I’m not exactly sure! I’m quite spiritual, so when I ask, it feels like I’m speaking to angels, spirit guides, collective consciousness, my higher self, my inner knowing, God, and the Universe. Yes, all of them-  I like to think of it as asking them to work together as a team to guide me.

Most of the time, I make decisions based on my intuition. But sometimes, when my intuition isn’t giving me a clear answer, I like to look outside myself for a little extra guidance. Recently, I’ve been inspired to go deeper into this practice after reading books by Gabby Bernstein, as well as a brilliant book actually called Signs.

Here’s what my process looks like: I speak out loud, say thank you for listening, ask my question, choose a specific sign, and then surrender. The key part is letting go, because whenever I actively look for the sign, it never appears. But when I relax and almost forget that I asked, it shows up in the most surprising way. It catches me so off guard that I often audibly gasp, knowing without a shadow of a doubt that it was meant for me. This whole practice is such a beautiful lesson in asking, believing, and then completely relaxing and surrendering so that you can truly receive.

So let me tell you how it all played out this week....

I had made the decision to create The Face Yoga Expert Facial At Home course.

Two days before I started filming, I decided to verbally say out loud:

“If making this course is in alignment for me, please send me a sign of an acorn.”

The reason I chose an acorn is because it’s so random.

I rarely ever see one anywhere, so if I did, I’d know it was the sign I was looking for.

The next day, I went into my 12-year-old daughter, Lucia’s room to say good night, thinking she was in bed.

Instead, I saw her sitting at her desk. She screwed up a piece of paper and said, “Oh, just something I drew but I don’t really want anymore.”

I said, “May I look?”

“Yes,” she replied.

I opened up the crumpled piece of paper…

And there it was —

a beautiful drawing of an acorn with a smiley face.

“This is the sign I’ve been waiting for,” I said.

And I knew, in that moment, I was on the path of alignment.

This little story isn’t really about the course.

And it definitely isn’t about acorns.

It’s about something much bigger, a reminder that whatever our beliefs are there are signs, synchronicities, little nudges of guidance all around us… they are really everywhere if we just ask, trust, and stay open. When we let go of control, we give life the space to surprise us in the most magical ways.
