The Soulmate Wishlist. Have you heard of it? ✨A The Soulmate Wishlist. Have you heard of it?

✨After reading a post by Oprah about The Magic of the Soul Mate Wish List, I was inspired to create my own. I wrote mine on my blog nearly four years ago. You can google The Olive Brunette Soulmate Wish List for an example.

✨Why am I telling you this? You see... there’s something really powerful with writing down what you want.

“Stop looking for the love of your life, love your life and the right person will appear.”

✨This blog post inspired me to dive deep into finding love and the best ways to go about doing so. If you’re on your journey to finding love, make a Soulmate Wish list. Trust that what you ask for will be given to you. 

There’s a book I recommend to all of my friends and family called Ask and It Is Given by Esther Hicks. I’ve read this book 3 times and re-read it whenever I feel out of alignment. If you’re reading this and feel called to check it out, do it. :) There’s magic in this book that you don’t want to miss. 💖

Have you ever wondered what your sleeping position Have you ever wondered what your sleeping position says about you? Most importantly, have you ever felt subconscious about how you sleep next to your significant other? This post is for you ⇣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
» Side Sleeper (specifically with your arms at your sides): This position says you’re probably easy going, social, and trusting according to sleep doctors. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
» Side Sleeper (with arms out) : They call this the “yearning log” because you’re yearning for for someone. These sleepers take their time to make up their mind, but once they do they are certain with their decision. The yearning log sleepers are typically open and inviting. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
» Stomach Sleeper: If you sleep with your head to one side and arms grasping your pillow, experts say you are very social but do not like being criticized- honestly, who does?! Stomach sleepers often have an adventurous spirit and love to have fun. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
» Back Sleeper (with arms at your side) : If this is you, congratulations. You’re less likely to get wrinkles and your back and neck are in proper alignment. I’m envious... just saying.  Back sleepers are strong and focused - like a soldier. You probably like structure and put high expectations on yourself. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
» Back Sleeper (with hands up): Calling you a shooting star. How cool. This is the least popular sleeping position so go you for being unique. According to psychology experts, you are a loving and supportive friend. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’ve recently started to share a bed with someone, you might find that half your brain is standing guard all night long. First, remember that your partner is not judging you for how you sleep. Your brain 🧠 is just a little slow at getting that message... don’t be so hard on yourself. Take time to wind down, focus on your breathing, and step away for a little meditation.

Small businesses that need our help

DISCLOSURE: THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS, MEANING I GET A COMMISSION IF YOU DECIDE TO MAKE A PURCHASE THROUGH MY LINKS, AT NO COST TO YOU. 

Las Vegas is pretty quiet at the moment which is rare for a city that doesn’t sleep. The strip is officially closed and the streets are empty. It’s quite eerie if you ask me. I have never seen Las Vegas like this and hope this craziness leaves soon because I want people back – in my life, on the strip, in restaurants, blah blah blah.

 

I know people are really over Facetime hangout’s and teachers and students across the U.S are more than done with zoom calls – funny because the schools have officially begun this week since Spring Break.

Hoping everyone finds some light in this situation.

Whether it’s spending time with your family, reading the book that’s been sitting on your shelf, baking cookies, learning a new language, or binge-watching a series. There are so many things to do that we all push to the side because work gets in the way. I’m looking at this time as a blessing to work on things that I “say” I never have time to do. Well, no excuses now. Anything you’ve been working on or trying now that we have some free time?

I’ve already written a list of things I plan to do once this is over and let me tell you, I am SO excited. This time at home has made me appreciate the things I took for granted. The restaurants I got to sit in, the happy hours with friends, the picnics at parks, museums, casinos, shows, sporting events, stocked shelves in the grocery stores (I REALLY took that for granted). I have a new perspective on life like many people at this time. I have read so many blog posts (lots of time on my hands) and Instagram captions talking about how grateful they were for the things they used to do every day.

Ooof, long rant. All in all, this will leave as fast as it came and as long as we all stay inside and practice social distancing, we can knock this thing right out. You with me or you with me? 🙂

As most of us know, Las Vegas businesses (especially small, local ones) are hurting at this time.

I decided to compile a list of places in Vegas that you guys can support.

Anything small helps. Ordering from a restaurant once a week, Instagram likes and comments to your favorite stores, positive Yelp reviews, or buying gift cards for friends and family members to use once we are out of quarantine are just a few ways we can help spread the love during this time. I encourage you to help in any way you can and believe me, your generosity will not go unnoticed.

Thankfully, many restaurants have not closed down. The only difference is instead of eating at the restaurant you’ll just take your food to go. Now, most restaurants in Vegas have that “fast food” feel which makes ordering your favorite dish super easy.

Before we get into a list of restaurants still offering curbside/to-go orders, I’d like to mention other ways you can help. There are many online businesses looking for support at this time. Shop online with some of that spare time you have and buy gift cards for those companies. Also, share posts on your social media accounts promoting these local Las Vegas businesses. You don’t know how much a little like, share, and comment helps and when it’s done it is the best feeling in the world. This is coming from someone who is also running a small business.

Also, small messages of encouragement to these Las Vegas businesses right now means the world. Take time out of your day to send kind words to these local businesses. It will put a smile on their face and give them the encouragement they need to keep going! In fact, we can all use a bit of encouragement right now.

My words of encouragement to you – You’ve got this! There is a light at the end of the tunnel. This too shall pass!

Spread kindness, love, encouragement, and positivity right now ♥

    What a beautiful display of encouragement, empathy, and support. Though I don’t live in Las Vegas, I’m 100% going to checkout some of these places and show them some love. You are so thoughtful to curate this incredible post of tribute to all of these wonderful small businesses. I do believe we are EACH supposed to lift one another up during this very difficult time. We should do so regardless, but definitely during this time of added confusion and unknown. Thank you for this amazing share! You are certainly a shining light!
