What Happened When I Let Go & Trusted Life


Hi Reader,

Have you ever bypassed all rational thought and just followed your instincts and synchronicities?

If so, what happened?

Most likely you had the exact experience you needed. Trusting yourself and life beyond thought is an empowered and magical way of being and living fully.

I’ll share a recent example from my life…

A few weeks ago, stuck at home in another heat wave in the South of France, I felt like I was in a pressure cooker. I knew I needed to get away somewhere by myself but felt lost trying to think of a place. So I asked life to show me.

I didn’t sit back and wait, though.

I followed my intuition and started searching for house and pet-sitting jobs in Europe. I was drawn to one in Mallorca, Spain. "Hmm," I thought, "I’ve always wanted to go to Mallorca," but checking in with myself, I got a NO to pet-sitting. So I let the idea go.

Later that day, I went on Instagram. A woman I know from when I lived in Costa Rica posted that she had a last-minute cancellation and one spot open for her yoga retreat in Mallorca! YES! That was it. It had all the elements I needed: like-minded people for deep connection, healthy meals, two yoga classes per day, two breathwork sessions, intuitive acupuncture, and beaches to explore.


I never thought I would go to a yoga retreat, having been a retreat consultant in Thailand 15 years ago and having run my own emotional healing retreats in Costa Rica twice a year for four years, which included yoga and everything this retreat offered.

But now, I just knew I had to go without any thought or question about it.


I received so much more than I could have ever imagined:

  • Deep connection with myself and crying laughter with beautiful people.
  • Inspiration and clarity with my book and a True Essence retreat.
  • I fell in love with Mallorca and plan on returning for longer.

I was also taking photos of nature, participants, and leaders on the retreat, which I’ve missed since Costa Rica.

The connections I made are now diving into my Free To Be Me book and exploring my True Essence Program.

If you are ready to be guided by your instincts, you can explore the free preview of the True Essence Program.

I'd love to hear how it goes for you!

Lots of love,

Elicia

The Dream That Led Me Home: Core Emotional Healing® After Bankruptcy

Hi Reader, Yesterday morning, I woke up from a dream that felt so real, I had to write it down. It wasn't just a dream; it was a homecoming. The Dream: The Magical Energy of My Atlanta Loft In the dream, I was home. Not the physical home I share with Olivier on the organic farm in the South of France. I was standing in the center of my loft in Atlanta, the one in the converted 1890s schoolhouse in Inman Park. This was the first, and only, place I owned alone (2003-2009) and it’s where my book...
