THE PAUSE
☺︎ pause take 1 minute on your timer and box breathe (in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4). focus on breath only, and letting go of any tension + excess control.
☺︎ journal question where am i compromising too much?
☺︎ thought process you are the ceo of your entire life. everything you have you’ve created
☺︎ daily habit hum when you are alone (making noise moves energy out of the body)
☺︎ wellbeing challenge happy, upbeat music only this week
i want a remarkable life.
in my last days on earth, i want to feel as if i was deeply present for all of the dreams i saw come true in my lifetime. i want to know that i lived purely, empowered; full of integrity and unwavering kindness - and i followed through with every goal i had for my life.
but the one thing I have always had to keep in mind is that having ‘level’ emotions isn’t exactly a human trait.
we have ups, downs, sideways’s - in-between’s…
and there are so many moments where i personally don’t feel pure (excess wine and chocolate!!!!!), or i don’t feel powerful (i am tired, feeling weak or unmotivated), or my kindness has reached it’s limit for the day and there’s no patience left (you got me again, Rogers!!!).
forgive me, love me. i am human.
these are the times that i have had to make a habit to dig deep to find inspiration in how to better move forward. getting stuck there is an absolutely not an option for my dreams. and allowing a negative emotion to take over a beautiful moment or accomplishment is not cool, dude.
the thought that changed how i showed up was : what would be best for my future self? how can i help her to make sure she’s fully supported in all of her goals and dreams?
and that - that is the secret wellness weapon.
this is how i consistently show up for myself, and don’t let the present emotion take over my life’s outputs. my drive to do well for myself and the world has overcome any momentary glimmer of doubt or fear.
so, what would Lindsay do to best help the world with her guidance? she would show up, rain or shine, and be as honest and pure as she can be. no excuses.

these are a few of my dreams, past and future:
racing cars (check!), marine life adventures (always ongoing, but freediving certified and swimming with whales - check!), buying my dream home in miami, being on the ocean as much as possible, marrying my best friend (love you D), romanticizing all of my life, having financial success, being a mom…
if you feel called to write yours down, please respond to this email with your dreams. it helps you so much to allow someone else to hear them and to put them into the universe. plus, you’d make my day to hear your personal life goals!!!!!!

i dont have time to contribute to my dreams right now
i am struggling with my own boundaries
i find myself unable to take the leap
i am pursuing my dreams, and thriving

𐬺 write 3 habits that would best support your mornings from this list, and start doing them daily.
here’s how mine looks life:
i take 10-15 minutes without my phone and snuggle my dog (my own form of meditation)
water with lemon and mineral drops
i eat a yogurt mix breakfast with this deliciously natural topping (eating right away helps my cortisol calm)
i put on my favourite outfit and head to hot yoga or pilates
shower, get ready (this is my self love + peaceful me time)
then i have my matcha (most days), and i pause while drinking it
i write my goals and tasks for my day in my fave planner

♡ something new i’m trying that gave a HOLY wow moment.. i recorded seven 5 star reviews of reign members who read this email….. (… lindsay, what?) yes. i have recorded made-up reviews from you all (hypothetically) praising this email and telling me how it completely shifts and changes your life, and that it brings you so much joy and perspective and better options for a more holistic lifestyle. i did this because it helps me resonate with the feeling i desire so badly to bring to you (and my life coach recommended it). resonating with 5 star reviews about my email gets me in the mode to create something so moving for you. try this in your own life, for your own business or any of your endeavours. it’s a tool to get into the feeling of what success looks like for you.
♡ something new i made was a delicious homemade rose split end repair hair oil. and it smells SO GOOD. all you need is three ingredients and a dropper bottle to help your hair repair itself daily, and smell like a bouquet of warm roses. this oil with this oil and 20 drops of this essential oil - and voila!! and if you want your bottles cool like mine, take a look at these
rest until i see you next ♡
