Helen Costa Coach

Feels good to be learning something new with others!

A new school, a new course and in Spanish.

I believe I've understood a lot of it. Today theory. Tomorrow putting it into practice.

Feathers

I like to think they are messages from loved ones, to let us know they are nearby.

Thoughtful Tuesday

Has anyone I know read this?

I am reminded of my A Level psychology course and things I've learnt since.

Making me aware of parenting.

Things are brought to the forefront for thinking and awakening.

What was your biggest takeaway?

Wellbeing Wednesday

I had a call to make and chose to take a walk to my favourite cafe for coffee and a medialuna! Worth it!

What is worth it for you today?

Just do it! Motivation Monday. Get Out!

The weather wasn't great so I took it out on the flat by cleaning it and resetting it for the week. Hormonal cleaning!! Felt good to declutter the mind.

Time to eat twice and then clean up!

As soon as we were done we got out to our happy place. Sun shining, hot and humid. Beach open and inviting us in! Quick change and we got in!

I even got to dip a few times alone, I mean count to 3 together and put my head under!!

Clean the soul, feed the soul and live!

What makes you change your state and feel alive, when in a funk??

Glimmers

This week has been busy with new starts, a birthday and adaptations.

So sitting still and being me was lovely. Nourishing my body and soul. Seeing life around me.

It was a bit cooler allowing me to be sat outside for a while comfortably breathing deeply.

I smiled at myself a few times!

What makes you smile?

Memory building

Holidays are often currently to the UK to see family and friends. Where we are surrounded by the countryside and outdoor things to do.

Although living on a holiday island we can go places all the time! Mostly beaches in the summer or parks.

Everyday activities are important too. Like jazzing up watching a film with handmade tickets. Role play and laughter.

Reading books together and acting out the characters.

What do you do to build special memories?

Friends

Smooth Sunday

Reflecting back on the past year I was reading one of Jen's books. As a treat for keeping promises to myself I bought another - money mindset. Blumin love it!

This is a kick back to a year ago on gratitude and wow so true. Every morning I speak words of gratitude, throughout the day I look for glimmers!

What do you do for gratitude?

Money

I love money.

More than enough money flows to me to support the life I deserve.

We've not had an easy relationship in the past but I've been working hard on it for the last year.

I've read a variety of books on money mindset and on this one now.

Which book is your Money Mindset favourite?

Gruffalo

Dress up has been such fun!

I remember board games and running through the house, out the back and repeat!

Everything is fun at Granny's!

What memories do you have of your granny's house?

Time outside

A lovely garden, matured over 40 plus years of love and determination.

The kids were keen to take toys outside, nothing holding me back!

Then a trip down memory lane of parks and places where people live etc.

Where do you go to connect with nature and your loved ones?

Art in the street!

So important to talk about art and what it feels like to you.

Just like talking about your feelings and thoughts together.

We went to the library to drop off our books and DVDs. Then explored the art in the street on the way to the park. Followed by shopping for a few essentials and home for lunch! Life lessons.

We love life together!

What do you see? What do you do that keeps it real?

Summer Holiday Learning - small snippets

Tablet propped on top of lego containers (repurposed), 2nd dinner and drinks in the background and kids popping in and out.

🏪 We had a hard day sales shopping and skipping storms!

📹 I decided I wanted to learn something by watching a video so watched a bit while cooking and when main dinner was finished I popped it back on! Love the content!!

Manifesting

Today is the Lion's Gate Portal. I looked at my phone at 08.08!

🌟 What are you thinking about? Things to move forward?

👁‍🗨 Will it get you to your vision?

Family Day - Beach

Location: /

Worth the trek and windy roads. Whoever did them for a reason but young kids don't think they are great!

The kids played with rocks while I relaxed with a cold. Daddy swimming. It was quite choppy but fun to watch!

What do you do for family time?

Currently updating my identity!

I've done a lot of administration roles and came accross a Virtual Assistant and Online Business Manager role.

Helping others return to their genius by delegating tasks, is a passion of mine. We can't know everything and sometimes hate repetitiveness. Pass those tasks on regularly or on an adhoc basis. Need to have a chat and brainstorm ideas, put together an agreed upon action plan? Need help with the actions? Check my link in my bio to a Meeting.

After university I joined pharmaceutical research companies and built my confidence and skills. I enjoyed the supporting and leading roles, checking, curating and creating.

I've been a teacher since 2010, in Spain, the UK and back to Spain.

I am a wife and Mum to two amazing kids.

What do you identify as?

What could you delegate?

Self Love Club

I am an aware person and a (former) people pleaser.

So when I was being challenged on caring for myself, I got a bit disgruntled and excuses came.

I have since been more conscious of self love and breaking bad habits and putting in boundaries. A work in progress.

Excited to have accountability partners to help me along.

Helping Hands

My children love to help me do things. It can slow things down but they are learning.

They love to dress up too - who is this glove from?

Remembering my why?!

Being present and being the best I can be for my family.

In order to do this I need to be with them and paying attention to them.

In order to do this I need my nervous system to be calm.

I need to feel I am supporting us and free to do as we wish. I need to be developing myself, helping others flexibly, which in turn brings joy to others and honouring myself.

More than enough money flows to us effortlessly and abundantly.

Parents and carers are so happy investing in my services - allowing them to return to their genius state. Listening to them, supporting them with their systems and doing tasks which take them away from their joy in their business.

What is your why??? Dig deep.

Whenever I’m down at the creek climbing across the rocks and through the water barefoot and free I always get the strangest looks from people passing by, but it doesn’t make me feel judged it makes me sad. Sad that they have robbed themselves of so much joy by holding themselves to impossible standards of what an adult should or shouldn’t do. I love getting into the creek, getting messy and dirty and just letting go and embracing it like I did when I was a barefooted child hair askew, muddy hands, muddy feet, muddy face, covered in cuts and bruises from climbing, falling, and wading, just a complete wild child. Why should I have to leave that the past just because I’m over 18? Are adults not allowed to have fun, to feel liberated, and wild, and free? To enjoy what Mother Earth has to offer?

What a sad life it must be to never allow yourself to have fun and just let go and embrace that childlike wonder. Why is there an age limit to fun, adventure, and finding the magic? It’s okay to scribble outside of the lines, to be imperfect, to be wild and free and just place down the heaviness of the world long enough to get lost in the magic that exists all around us.

So if there is one piece of advice I leave you with today, let us be this: Color outside the lines and lose yourself whenever you can, in the magic, in the wild, in the many realms that exist within ours. 🖤✨

The beach!

Family time!
