Hello Everyone - I am so excited to be here in this space and to reignite my love for words, writing and language. My hope is that my sharing of words will support you in some way or form on your journey through this lifetime.
My writing will not follow a specific topic throughout, instead each article will hold its own identity...as a Manifestor Type (In Human Design - to which I am sure I will write about in the near future) I tend to move from one idea to another. I like to honour my creative urges and allow the vision to pour out of me in the moment. I am hoping that my writings will stimulate thought, contemplation and awareness for others, as well as myself. To open up conversations about ideas, concepts, programs and conditioning that we have taken as truths really excites me. Anyone who knows me, knows that I LOVE a good conversation that pushes the boundaries. I love hearing and learning new perspectives that were not in my awareness previously and I absolutely LOVE growing as a spiritual being. So welcome to a new space, I am excited to have you here for the journey!
Let me introduce myself, my name is Tara Finnigan and below is my beautiful family. Dean (whom I refer to as Finn) is my amazing husband who supports me no matter what new idea or perspective I have. That being said, he also calls me on my shit, which, if I'm being honest, I need from time to time. My oldest child is Mackenzi who loves sports and being social, she definitely likes to challenge me, however I am so grateful for the growth opportunities she provides me with. And my youngest is Kieran, he is my nature loving, creative, woodworking and sensitive soul. He teaches me patience and compassion on the daily!
When covid hit, we pulled our children from the traditional school system and started homeschooling and I haven't regretted it for a moment. Now don't get me wrong, I have had some "What the F@%K am I doing?!" moments - absolutely...but I wouldn't change it. We do homeschooling in a way that works for us and it is always evolving. I am so grateful for the supportive community, we have surrounding us. It really does take a village to move through this life.
I have spent the last five years working on myself (and will continue to, moving forward), stepping into the really uncomfortable spaces, and working through them as best I can. Making changes when guided to even though, others may not be making the same changes. I have taken many courses, listened to hundreds of podcasts and read an endless amount of books. I have been blessed with some beautiful friendships and encounters with humans that have supported me in expanding my consciousness and awareness and that have pushed me forward in areas I would not have gone on my own. And for all of the individuals that have come into my life and exited my life, I am truly grateful, as each relationship has served a higher purpose in my journey and I wouldn't be who I am today without my experiences with them.
I'm a pretty straight shooter - I believe we need to step up to the plate and own our shit...regardless of how uncomfortable it might be. That being said, I am filled with compassion and support for all of my friends, family and clients, espeically when they start prioritizing themselves and their wellbeing. Avoidance is WAY easier, but not near as rewarding!
Since closing Local Organics Health Food & Wellness Centre (For those that don't know me, I co-created, owned and ran a health food & wellness centre for 10 years), I have slowed down a lot. In a world that glorifies busy, I have had many comments and questions about closing the store and what I am doing now, however I am feeling more like my authentic self than I ever have before. And Damn it feels good! I know I still have a long ways to go in regards to truly letting my light shine, however I feel confident that I am on the right path.
Currently I am working from my home office seeing clients. My services vary and I feel a shift coming in regards to what I offer my clients. In 2013, I began seeing clients to support them with natural nutrition and then added in BioEnergetics, which helps bring the body into balance so it can heal itself. I work with a lot of clients suffering from seasonal allergies, food intolerances and many other issues. As time moved forward, I began to learn that everything is connected and that in order to truly heal, we need to work with the mind, body and spirit. Now for some, this may make them turn the other way. It's unfamiliar for them, or they don't want to dive into their traumas or emotions. I will be the first to agree that it is easier to avoid and say you don't believe in that shit, however when you do that, I feel, you are also welcoming a state of dis-ease into your body and choosing to hang onto that story. In making the mind, body and spirit connection, I took on more modalities that resonated with me. Reiki, Access Consciousness Bars, Unity Field Healing, German New Medicine and became a Human Design Reader. My desire to learn and teach others, has definitely continued and grows stronger every day (I was an elementary school teacher for 7 years before leaving for the holistic health and wellness field). In addition to all of the above, I love leading Women's Circles and creating community. Curating these events brings so much joy to my heart.
So after all of that, I invite you to join me here, in a space where new ideas and thoughts are welcome. Where community is built and supported, the past is released and learnt from and the future is ours to create whatever our heart guides us to.
