Saturday, July 18, 2009 - Today's Words of Inspiration AND Three super giveaways!

Hope everyone is having a great Saturday! It's sunny outside (finally, because on the whole it had started out as a soggy summer here!)

Sorry for the shorter than usual post, but my lovely time outdoors resulted in a nasty mosquito bite! So the Benadryl I have to take to feel better, is definitely making me a drowsy butterfly! Not to mention, it's hard to type with a swollen arm!

Use 'Today's Words of Inspiration' as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of, say creative if you are experiencing writers block) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud today 'I am letting the sunshine in, in every area of my life'. Let these words put you in a mindset of freedom, joy and relaxation. Remember, no work today!

Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by universal forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul. Do this at least twice today and see how by taking a moment away from the hectic pace and breathing in positive energy and affirming what you wish to create, your thinking will become different!

Friday, July 17, 2009 - Today's Words of Inspiration AND Three super giveaways!


This week has truly flown by! Happy Friday Ascending Butterflies! I'm already very much in weekend mode. I'm going to try to get some errands done and sneak in a little special treat just for me! I hadn't done anything special to celebrate Ascending Butterfly's One Month 'Blog-A-Versary' and I plan to celebrate this weekend by doing those special things for myself that life often gets in the way of doing. Thanks for celebrating one month of inspiration and gratitude! It's been a blessing sharing sources of inspiration with you as well as wonderful products to make your day a little easier, brighter and stress free. We are all about 'stress-free living'. What are your weekend plans? Don't forget to make time to be outdoors. Some time spent 'doing nothing' will be time well spent!

I received a lot of positive feedback about Thursday's post regarding the meaning behind each day of the week, so I thought I'd share Friday with you!
(Source: http://www.crowl.org/Lawrence/time/days.html#Friday)

Friday -- Freya's day
Middle English fridai
Old English frigedæg
"Freya's day"
composed of Frige (genetive singular of Freo) + dæg "day"
(most
likely)
or composed of Frig "Frigg" + dæg "day" (least likely)
Germanic frije-dagaz "Freya's (or Frigg's) day"
Latin dies Veneris
"Venus's day"
Ancient Greek hemera Aphrodites "day of Aphrodite"

Freo is identical with freo, meaning free. It is from the Germanic
frijaz meaning "beloved, belonging to the loved ones, not in bondage, free".

Freya (Fria) is the Teutonic goddess of love, beauty, and fecundity
(prolific procreation). She is identified with the Norse god Freya. She is leader
of the Valkyries and one of the Vanir. She is confused in Germany with
Frigg.

Frigg (Frigga) is the Teutonic goddess of clouds, the sky, and
conjugal
(married) love. She is identified with Frigg, the
Norse goddess of love and the heavens and the wife of Odin. She is one
of the Aesir. She is confused in Germany with Freya.

Venus
is the Roman goddess of love and beauty.

Aphrodite
(Cytherea) is the Greek goddess of love and beauty.


I love the references to freedom and being free today, that is just what Friday's tend to always symbolize, the freedom from the work week! And I'm glad to know Aphrodite is thrown in there too, I'll be spending today focusing on love and beauty in my own life today!

Use 'Today's Words of Inspiration' as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of, say creative if you are experiencing writers block) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud today 'I will embrace the weekend and the freedom it will bring'. Let these words put you in a mindset of freedom, joy and relaxation. Shake off the work day world for the next two days!

Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by universal forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul. Do this at least twice today and see how by taking a moment away from the hectic pace and breathing in positive energy and affirming what you wish to create, your thinking will become different!

Thursday, July 16, 2009 - Today's Words of Inspiration AND Three super giveaways!



We are one day closer to Friday! One of my favorite lessons in school was learning why each day of the week has it's specific name. Thursday is also known as -- Thor's day. Thor is the Norse god of thunder. He is represented as riding a chariot drawn by goats and wielding the hammer Miölnir. Where can you wield a hammer in your life?


Not literally of course! But are there areas of your life that need radical change? I know mine does! Spend some time on Thor's day wielding your hammer for GOOD. Use it to break things. Break Bad Habits. Break through old pains, and truly let them all go this time.


Use Thor's hammer in your life to make a new start. Who says renewal is only for Spring time?


Use 'Today's Words of Inspiration' as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of, say creative if you are experiencing writers block) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud today 'I will break all bad habits, I will release the past and move forward in renewal .'


Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by universal forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul. Do this at least twice today and see how by taking a moment away from the hectic pace and breathing in positive energy and affirming what you wish to create, your thinking will become different!

Tuesday, July 14, 2009 - Today's Words of Inspiration AND Three super giveaways!




I spent yesterday late afternoon in the park. I needed some time to connect with nature, to connect with others, spend some time people watching and of course sneak in a few moments just to breathe deeply and connect with myself.


Living in the 'city that never sleeps' can be downright exhausting sometimes. Especially when it seems as though our collective mantra is 'time is money'. But it isn't and it shouldn't be.


I needed that time, to be in the middle of green grass, surrounded by trees and the sound of children's laughter, the loud clack of people playing baseball, or the thump, thump, thump of kids shooting hoops!


That is what I wish for you my Ascending Butterflies, some time for yourself on this crazy journey!


Use Today's Words of Inspiration as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud today 'I connect with Nature, I am one with the beauty that surrounds me.'


Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by universal forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul. Do this at least twice today and see how by taking a moment away from the hectic pace and breathing in positive energy and affirming what you wish to create, your thinking will become different!

Use Today's Words of Inspiration as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud today 'I embrace the new.'

Très Sleek™ Giveaway!

Sponsored by


Founded in early 2008 by Lee Ann Stevenson, Très Sleek™ introduced the first arm shape-wear of its kind. Lee Ann identified a void in the shape-wear market after talking to countless women who expressed their frustration with tops that just didn’t fit right. Delving further into the problem, Lee found even more women who felt that the only options for eliminating flabby or bulgy trouble spots were invasive, or required suffering through an unflattering wardrobe.

Lee’s company philosophy is expressed in the following quote:
“I have made it my priority to search for easy ways to address our figure flaws while making it affordable to every woman.” Created specifically to appeal to females who want fast results, Lee brings her own perspective as a wife, friend, mother, and—first and foremost—a woman, to her product development process.

"In my opinion shapewear is a tool to enhance our figure, not hide it" says Lee Ann Stevenson CEO and Creator of Très Sleek™". Finally we live in a time where being shapely is celebrated and having curves is the must have accessory". " With every product I create, my goal is to nip and tuck the areas that time, age, genetics, busy schedules, and pregnancy have re-designed, leaving a naturally sexy and sculpted silhouette".

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ascending Butterfly is very excited to be able to introduce our readers to a company who feels it’s important to make women feel more comfortable and confident in the skin they are in! Not only have we made Très Sleek™ 'Today’s Butterfly' featured site, but we have teamed up with Très Sleek™ to offer Ascending Butterfly Readers a chance to win this amazing shape-wear! How cool is that?~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~




BRAdigy™ Camisole




The BRAdigy™ Camisole is designed to embody the style and comfort of a favorite tank top, this new breed of Cami features thicker straps for comfort and support, and extra length to smooth where it counts. A slightly higher-cut neckline meant to minimize spillover of cleavage and underarm flesh. With its appealing silhouette and variety of colors to choose from, this is one cami whose straps don't need to be concealed, and can even peek out tastefully from under a jacket. Did we mention that this item is also offered in two-toned combinations allowing you to switch between black and nude, or white and black in one bra or cami? So many women are forced to spend good money on multiple camisoles for different color choices. Well now you can get two in one with BRAdigy™ collection. Now that's smart!

Colors: Black, Lipstick Red, Chocolate, Marshmello, Black, Nude, Hot Pink

Sizes: XS-4X, Price 31.95 solids, 41.95 reversible.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

  • Lightweight and compressive nylon/spandex blend
  • Smoothes from underneath breast to upper thigh
  • Eliminates back bulge
  • No ill fitting bra shelf to deal with
  • No clasps or painful hooks
