3 Tips for Authentic Romance

Amor Milagre Authentic Romantic Life Tips
Amor Milagre Design: Rose Cottage Sitting Room Spring Mantle

 

Good Afternoon.  Did you know that Peace is where Romance lives?  This post is an excerpt from my healthy lifestyle book, A Gentle Life by Amor Milagre.  I sense the world has long been in a tangle.  To unwind and release from this static, each one of us may gently be our true self and connect naturally.  This is how the universe may feel…just right.

1.  Awareness for the Senses

Feel your skin, your body functioning,  your heart exhale, and your electrons buzzing all around you.  Breathe in…and out.  Feel what you love and what you lack.  Listen and give.  Feel again.  Smile with your entire being.  Connect with the trees.  Feel their energy.  Connect with each other.  Send and receive loving energy.  This is you.  You are love.  Love your body, mind, heart, soul, energy, and daily choices.  Heal the past, be in the present, and open to the future.  Love the connections and find pockets of joy in how you can share and grow this love.  It’s infinite…and it’s always there…everywhere…waiting to be kissed up and hugged up and embraced fully with every spec in the universe.  Burst with love!  Let love accompany you during your day.  Consume love.  Breathe love in…and out.  Listen to love as your lullaby.  Dream love.  It feels good.

2.  Date Yourself

Before you can be present and emotionally in tune with anyone else, you can choose to be eternally in love with your inner and outer self.  Try out self dates.  Go to a variety of places (safely) and become aware of what you love.  You may be surprised what you didn’t know you could enjoy!  You can easily date yourself at home, too.  Even ten minutes is enough time to check in.  Explore new experiences.  Exercise in gentle ways.  What kinds of movement feel healthy?  Wander and sense what your soul connects with.  Take your time to know and feel and process.  Sort it all out.  Nourish healthy habits and memories, and let go of all negativity.  It’s too heavy to hold, so let go.  Adore your body and the mysterious and magical things it can do.  You are connected to everything in the universe.  What would you like to adorn your web with?  People, places, and nature that match your true energy will connect with you naturally when you are living as your authentic self.  Connect within.  The confidence, sweetness, and fun that you have when alone is felt everywhere by you being you.  This is attractive to yourself and the world around you.  This is where peace and romance live…within your authentic self.  You are all you need to feel wonderful.  Always stay aware of the messages from your inner self, your soul, and your body.  You can date yourself all your life.  It is important to keep up with this respectful relationship, especially when you have others in your life.  Communicate in a love language within and with others for a peaceful day.  You choose…everything.

3.  Express Yourself

Dancing to music you love, singing in the bath or shower, daydreaming, helping others, laughing and playing, crafting and scrapbooking, drawing and painting, exploring, sewing clothes and toys, acting and reading, inventing and building useful things with natural materials, sailing out with oars to float and unwind, sowing seeds and bulbs, playing instruments, writing creative stories and love letters, decorating, cooking and savouring, simplifying, walking in nature, swimming and climbing, being still, and meditating are just a pocketful of ways to embrace your emotions.  Be aware to not bother or neglect others while you are expressing.  Feel all of the emotions, process, and release.  This positive practice allows air to flow through your energy.  Your senses are set free, and you are open to experience this new moment.  What do your senses tell you?

For more gentle living, read my original book collection and these journal posts.  Listen with your heart.  It may tell you something very different than what you think you feel.  Listen….and love.

Love, Amor Milagre

Mamma Said, Mamma Said

Amor Milagre Children's Book Sage's Year in Nature
Amor Milagre Children’s Book Sage’s Year in Nature

 

When it’s my husband’s turn to take the lead, I rest in the bath.

Mamma said’s bounce through the cottage and inspire echoing laughs…

and then they rush in to ask “What is funny?”

Me:  “You’re just such darlings.”

They giggle and resume, “Mamma said we get to do this now!  Follow me.  I’ll show you.”

It feels good to have someone truly listen…  finally someone hears me. 🌷

*Children are always absorbing your messages…so take the greatest care to make them good ones.

Listen with the Heart.  Listen to Peaceful People.

The voices of women and children matter.  Respect us and what we communicate.

Love to all, 💋 ~Mamma (Amor Milagre)

Awareness for All Children’s Education

All children communicate in their own way.  This post is a reminder for parents, caregivers, family, and school staff to be a safe place for children so that they may feel comfortable to express themselves in any way that comes naturally.

If you don’t yet understand their beautifully unique language, it is your responsibility to find out ways to learn their language and how to teach them everything.  Neglect and negativity is unacceptable and so very damaging.  Bridge the communication gap.  It’s all about a translation.  Think of people like countries, if it helps you, to understand that we each live in our own experience of the world.  Begin with love, trust, and a sensitive promise that you will help them always.  Let them know:  You will be there, being supportive, healthy, safe, encouraging, and inspiring.  You will listen with all of your senses.  Empathy is the key to every language.

Everyone learns in their own way.  Everyone deserves attention, patience, love, and a real education. Each child is beautiful and intelligent.  Equality for education in every way is a basic right that needs to become a reality for each child worldwide.  Every person has a lifetime of wonders to live and share with the world.  Be the guide, the helper, the parent.

In our homeschool, we love to learn every language.  We learn with every sense.  We keep our minds open and invite new ideas and connections.  Learning languages is interesting, humbling, and I encourage everyone to learn as much about other cultures as possible to create awareness for world peace.

Every person, no matter the age, can resolve, redesign, and replace ways of living that we know do not work by simply living empathically.  Make it all better, not worse.  Confusion is the beginning of learning something new.  Open your heart and find out what comes next…  I’ll let you know…it’s something very good.  Trust me.  You’ll love it!

Love to all of the children.  You deserve everything positive, respectful, inclusive, and so very kind.  Shine your light!  Love, Amor Milagre

 

The Silent Child by Rachel Shenton is a short film that sheds a profound awareness for one example of a child who needs someone to really listen and help.  Redesign every educational system to help everyone.  Love to all.

Books that Travel Beautifully

Amor Milagre Books that Travel Beautifully
Leona’s Homecoming:  The Love Letter Diaries, The First Year of Seasonal Festivals, 4 Novels Vol. I by Amor Milagre

 

In the pocket of a trusty travel bag fits a delicious novel and a sweet children’s book to savour on a train or plane, in a lamplit inn with the summer breeze kissing your robed cheeks, or swaying on a hammock in your back garden.  ‘Il dolce far niente’ means the sweetness of doing nothing in Italian.  Letting yourself find what you love nourishes and rejuvenates the soul.  My books are for all ages and encourage authentic, kind, peaceful practices and ideas to try.  I love rereading them with our family as I hope you do, too.

In this often chaotic world, I write ways to live beautifully and naturally.  My characters help instead of harm.  They are funny, sweet, thoughtful, and very real.  I send love to anyone who must travel due to emergencies in their homeland.  As I know too well, this kind of travel is not at all relaxing as a vacation would be.  People leave to save their lives.  They are trying to escape danger.  All they had built is left behind, and they have to start over, usually with nothing.  This is heartbreaking and incredibly dangerous.  Precautions and safe help are urgently needed during times of war, natural disasters, and abuse.  Every country must protect the rights of women and children.  Re-abolish slavery for good.  Replace the history of negativity with positive growth that benefits everyone.  New beginnings are a chance to redesign for a better life.  Although we all may miss precious things that were lost due to trauma, we can heal and rebuild a healthy future to keep all of the babies of the world safe.  Peace is possible if we all choose it.

I include tragic misfortunes and terrible struggles in my books, but I paint up characters who help those in need of a positive solution to solve troubles that seem out of their control.  There are too many large and small scale problems on every street and hill in the world.  I write peaceful ideas in the hope that positivity will spread down those streets and over those hills to reach anyone who needs help the most.  Any little bit of help can make the most important difference for one or many.  I wish you a peaceful summer, and I urge everyone to do something that helps someone in the coming months. *Ask how you may help, and then listen.  Work with people to solve and prevent problems.  Ask if you did help, and listen again.  Repeat forever.

I am working on a way for a percentage of each sale to be donated to an organization that directly aids those in need of help while searching for a safe, new home.  Being forced to live a nomadic, uncertain life is cruel, dangerous, and terrifying.  We all need a steady, safe home.  We all can work together to help everyone have this basic need.  Our world must get out of this constant survival mode and change into a deep, lasting time of healing.  Equality and safety is needed worldwide.

Amor Milagre Books that Travel Beautifully

In my gift shop, I also feature artwork and photography inspired by my travels.  Nature adores us always…trailing all the way from a rose wall in Tuscany back home to a sweet rose blooming in our New England cottage garden.  Help, don’t harm.  Preserve nature.  Enjoy your unique senses of nature.

 

Shop:  A Gentle Life Collection

Books Sizes/Types:  Digital Audio, Hardback Pocket, Digest, Square, (Paperbacks are Coming Soon)

 

My books are cosy to read, or listen to, when at home, on a work break or weekend, and while travelling.  Many of my stories are set in New England, such as my Sage Rose Sorrel children’s books, but here are some others that you might love to tag along with as my characters explore new favourite places.

Amaranthe tells of living in NYC and France.  Leona has lived in two homes in Italy:  one by the mountains and one by the sea.  Ellary Eden grows a helpful, enchanting garden in the Witching World!  I have just finished three fresh novels for you to explore soon.  There is one especially delicious new book that is set in Belgium!  Every time you explore a new place, you learn so much for your life ahead.

Happy, safe travels to you!  Love, Amor Milagre
