Are you living your purpose?
It is tough to drag yourself out of bed in the morning if you don’t feel driven by your purpose.
Whether you have found your purpose, or you are still looking for it, you need to focus on the desires of your heart.
The desires of your heart will always call you to your purpose.
A nagging urge that you aren’t doing what you should be doing can get really uncomfortable.
Do you see signs that your purpose is calling?
- Feeling restless?
- Do you sometimes get irritable without knowing why?
- Does silence make you nervous?
- Do you dislike down time?
- What wakes you up in the middle of the night?
If your purpose is calling you, the best thing to do is get still and listen.
Your intuition will tell you where to focus your attention.
Your intuition will chart your course if you let it, and the secret to hearing your intuition is to relax and focus your attention on your heart.
That is where magnesium can be your best ally!
Magnesium is an amazing nutrient!
Anything that is tight, irritable, cramped, and/or stiff — whether it is a body part or even a mood — is a sign of magnesium deficiency.
If you are tight, irritable, cramped, or stiff you are going to have a hard time relaxing and tapping into your inner messenger.
Foods high in magnesium can quickly help you relax!
Think of magnesium as the “Relax Mineral” that empowers you!
Plan for success.
Laurie spent time with her Sacred Breathing every single morning.
She’d heard enough awesome testimonials about how Life Breath Club members had changed their lives that she knew it was worth her attention.
Ten years of pain and increasingly frequent colds, flu and bladder infections had made Laurie feel hopeless. She wanted her active lifestyle back.
Her auto immune issues had taken the fun out of life.
The problem was that Laurie became overwhelmed with fear and anxiety every time she had a few moments of silence. Just sitting at a traffic light was torturous, because she couldn’t turn off the negative train of thought that kept cruising through her mind.
She didn’t enjoy her own company.
Sacred Breathing felt impossible for Laurie outside the ten minutes she devoted to practicing in the morning.
Laurie took my advice and added foods high in magnesium to her diet. She saw a big difference right away and started to use magnesium supplements as well.
For the first time in her life she felt like she could really relax!
Within a week Laurie was reporting that Sacred Breathing was no longer torturous. She enjoyed it so much that it became easy to give it her focus again and again through out the day!
Choose foods high in magnesium with the intention of nurturing stillness and relaxation!
Laurie found that relaxing into the flow of life made realizing her dreams easy! Her goals have gotten MUCH bigger recently and even those HUGE exciting goals don’t cause her anxiety.
She knows that Sacred Breathing will see her through and magnesium is her secret weapon!

i understand the need for magnesium but also have IBS and get very loose bowels from it. What can you recommend to counteract this?
Aloha mbaker,
I suggest that you soak in magnesium and hydrogen peroxide. It’s a very safe effective way to nurture a more healthy bowel.
Be well!

I believe nature can be very effective treatment especially that come in from food, low magnesium can make excessive sweat which is can trigger smelly feet and on my own post I suggest to consume foods contain magnesium to get rid of
Aloha Samsur,
Smelly feet are the least of your problems if you have low magnesium!
To your health!
Many blessings,
Carrie
Love this article Carrie! I have read that most all Americans are low in magnesium. Thanks for the reminder.
Hi Sheri,
You are very welcome! I remember being inspired to write this post. Magnesium really will Zen you out!
Many blessings,
Carrie
Great post Carrie,
Thank you for sharing the information about magnesium. I guess you can say I am nuts about magnesium. All of the nuts,shrimp,collard greens,avocado,and garlic I love them. Thanks for the information and I will continue happily down the magnesium road.
Aloha Kevin!
Three cheers for great food and the relaxation side effects they cause!
Eating wholesome food is inspiring all by itself, wouldn’t you say?
Many blessings,
Carrie
What a wonderful perspective on magnesium, Carrie. I definitely hadn’t looked at it quite this way before. Some of the signs fit me , some don’t. So I guess increasing intake for a while would be a good idea, to see if any changes happen. Shouldn’t dark chocolate be on the list too? I’ve heard quite often that it’s full of magnesium,
Aloha Nicole,
I had several suggestions to add to the list. I relented and added kale, since it is in my daily Green Smoothie, I couldn’t argue with the powerful relaxation I felt it give me! ;D
However, I’m thinking, “I don’t need any encouragement to eat more dark chocolate”, do you? LOL
But yes indeed, Nicole, dark chocolate is another good choice.
Many blessings,
Carrie
Hi Carrie, awesome blog. We forget about the natural cures for certain problems within us. Being a person who eats quite healthy myself, I have used magnesium with great benefits. Thank you so much for sharing.
Aloha Lauren,
I’m always happy to share. When I added Green Smoothies to my daily nutrition I was shocked at how powerfully relaxing it was!
The power of live food is really amazing!
Many blessings,
Carrie
