“I want you to become aware that you already possess all the inner wisdom, strength, and creativity needed to make your dreams come true.”

“I am again learning to believe in myself again and do in fact believe I have access to all that I need to create abundance in my life.” (Heather Houston 2022)

“When we can’t access our inner resources, we come to the flawed conclusion that happiness and fulfillment come only from external events.”

“…so we’ve learned to rely on circumstances outside ourselves for forward and backward momentum as we hurtle through life.”

“We can learn to be the catalyst for our own change.”

“I know this more than most as I have been in a constant state of transformation since 2018. I am proud of my courage and determination to demand more in my life…happiness, love, support, friendship, etc.” (Heather Houston 2022)

“…you already possess all you need to be genuinely happy. The way you reach that awareness is through an inner journey that brings about an emotional, psychological, and spiritual transformation. A deep inner shift in your reality occurs, aligning you with the creative energy of the Universe. Such change is possible when you invite Spirit to open up the eyes of your awareness to the abundance that is already yours.”

“I am living this each and every day. I feel like I have been transported into a magic land of happiness, love and peace.” (Heather Houston 2022)

“I am doing the work to create sustainable access to happiness and fulfillment by authentically sharing and accepting my life as lived. (Heather Houston 2026)

“…six threads of abundant living… First there is gratitude. When we do a mental and spiritual inventory of all that we have, we realize that we are very rich indeed. Gratitude gives way to simplicity—the desire to clear out, pare down, and realize the essentials of what we need to live truly well. Simplicity brings with it order, both internally and externally. A sense of order in our life brings us harmony. Harmony provides us with the inner peace we need to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us each day, and beauty opens us to joy.”
