Hello and welcome to this week's episode of Spunky Spirit. I am psychic
0:32
medium Carrie Mugs, and today we are going to talk about finding living a
0:36
magical life, so finding the magic in every moment or in each day,
0:42
because I do know that a lot of people who've been reaching out, or
0:46
a lot of people who've been watching Carry connects have kind of been like,
0:50
it's so hard right now, It's just a lot of chaos. And so
0:54
I feel like I feel like life is always like that, right I feel
0:58
like we always think, well, when this happens, will get better or
1:00
things will come down when and I was just talking to my husband the other
1:03
night and he was like, that's We've always kind of just been like,
1:07
well, it should come down this time, or it should be when this
1:10
happens, things will come down, and it's never like that. It's always
1:12
a little bit chaotic. So I think the trick is is to find the
1:18
magic in each day and find the magic in each moment, even if it's
1:23
chaotic or stressful or which I know can be hard. And this is not
1:27
toxic positivity. I'm not saying be one hundred percent happy all the time,
1:32
but just know that life is hard. Life can be hard sometimes, and
1:34
you can't have the good without the bad, right, And so even in
1:38
the bad moments, though, you can find a silver lining, or you
1:42
can find something to be grateful for or something to be grateful about. And
1:49
that doesn't mean we're going to talk about this too, because I know there's
1:53
sometimes What I really want to get across is that you always have to process
1:57
the feelings and the emotions come with the everyday staff, right. I want
2:01
you to do that, but I also want you to find the silver linings.
2:06
I also want you to kind of find gratitude in things, or gratitude
2:12
and happiness. It doesn't mean you can't feel the emotions that you're going through.
2:16
It doesn't mean that shit isn't hard, right, It just means that
2:22
how you react to it or how you come through it is so important.
2:25
And to find the little blessings or the little magic in each instant or in
2:30
each circumstance. So number one, these are going to be simple, not
2:36
simple, but these are going to be ways to find or to find magic
2:40
in each day or in your life. So Number one is to be a
2:46
good person. I've always I used to work at snowst magazine and I worked
2:52
with a lady. She was awesome, and she always just said she just
2:55
believed. She's the first one that kind of taught me about manifestation. And
3:00
she said, you just get what you put out there. So if you
3:01
are a good person and you put good things out there, you're going to
3:06
receive that back, not one hundred percent, not all the time, because
3:08
life is going to happen and life Earth can be hard. Earth life can
3:14
be hard sometimes, but the majority of you get back what you put out
3:19
there. So what you put out there, you get back. And what
3:23
I mean by putting out there is is how be a good person, be
3:28
a good person to others. And sometimes and I know we're kind of taught
3:32
in a world that we have to help others all the time, or we
3:36
feel bad if we don't help others or we have to give, give,
3:38
give, Sometimes you don't have enough to give, and that's okay. There's
3:42
a season to everything. There's a season too when you have enough energy and
3:46
time and money to give, and there's a season when you might not,
3:49
and you might need to get help from other people. But right now or
3:55
in any time, you can always be a good person. You can always
3:59
be a good person, and you always So this whole thing of you get
4:04
what you put out there is really really important to me because karma is not
4:11
a revengeful law. It's not something that's like, oh, they're going to
4:15
get their Karma is a universal law and it just means what you put out
4:19
there, you're going to receive. So if you keep putting out there complaints
4:26
and everything that's bad about your life, and you keep talking about it and
4:30
dwelling on it, you're going to get that back. And if you are
4:34
bad to people or mean to people, you're going to get that back to
4:39
you. So of course, if you have that focus of being rude to
4:43
people and always being mad about something or always find something to be mad about,
4:47
you're going to get that back. Because we've always talked about that it's
4:50
part of manifesting. Manifesting, it's part of that alignment. Right. So,
4:58
like I've taught before, if you put a good two guitars together and
5:00
you put them on a table and on one card, one guitar you pick
5:06
at the g string at the other guitar is going that g string is going
5:12
to vibrate. So it's basically that guitar is receiving what it puts out there.
5:16
So that's kind of how you are. You're going to get what you
5:20
put out there. And so if you put bad, bad, chaotic,
5:25
mean things out there and you're rude to people all the time, you're going
5:27
to get that back. That's just the way the universe works. That's just
5:30
how it is. So be a good person all the time, Like you
5:34
don't always have to. You can stand up for yourself and you can have
5:38
boundaries, but you can also be a good person. Boundaries doesn't mean you
5:42
get to either be bad or good, or you get to be mean or
5:46
nice. There can always be an in between. So be a good person.
5:50
That's the number one thing to finding magic, because if you want to
5:55
find magic in your everyday life, you got to put it out there,
5:58
So you got to just and hope for you got a hope for it,
6:00
and know that it's coming, and so be a good person. Number two
6:05
is stay away from those who aren't and so stay away from the people who
6:12
are always always complaining. Stay away from the people who are always mean or
6:15
treating you crappy. Stay away from those people. You can build those boundaries,
6:20
like you don't always have to be around them. And this is that
6:24
fine line, right, like you can still be a good person and still
6:27
put good things out there, but that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice yourself
6:31
to be there for somebody else. If somebody else is not nice and somebody
6:34
else is not treating you very well, or if somebody else complains continuously or
6:40
all the time, you don't have to pee. You don't have to be
6:43
around that person. So just kind of watch that, just kind of build
6:47
those boundaries, and you can you can send send them love from a distance,
6:54
send them white light from a distance, send them love from a distance,
6:57
but you don't have to be around them all the time. And if
6:59
you are around them, you can protect yourself because if it's in a situation
7:02
where you have to be and you don't have a choice that you have to
7:04
you can be around them, you have to be around them. Then kind
7:09
of create some boundaries, create your own boundaries, create your own protection.
7:13
Wear termuli necklaces or bracelets, do white light around you, do a cloak
7:19
on or cloak off kind of meditation where you can surround yourself with protection.
7:25
But so try and stay away from those people who always just bring you down
7:30
or who always drain your energy, because because when you're always in that constant
7:36
negativity or that constant frequency, that it's hard to find the good in things.
7:42
It's hard to find what to be grateful for and or what to be
7:47
happy about. So if it's constant negativity, you got to like tweak that
7:53
somehow and tweak that. You don't have to be around that all the time.
7:56
Number three is focus on the little things. It doesn't always have to
8:00
be super complex. It doesn't always have to be like super big. It
8:03
can be the little things that bring you joy. It can be a cup
8:07
of coffee in the morning. Simplicity is like magic is simplicity. We think
8:13
that we have to have like all these spells or all these ways to make
8:18
it happen, or like to connect a spirit that we have to like have
8:20
this training and all this stuff, and sometimes that helps, but honestly,
8:24
it's really in the simplicity. It just you have to keep it simple.
8:28
Connection to the divine or connection to your loved ones is simple. You just
8:33
find a place, relax and start talking to them. It's simple. And
8:37
so this is in your life. Find the simplicity in your life. Find
8:41
the simple things what brings you? What are the simple things that bring you
8:45
joy? Is it your grandchild or your child laughing? Is it you laughing?
8:50
Is it you watching a stupid sitcom every night and laughing? Is it
8:54
the cup of coffee in the morning, Is its sitting outside in your backyard?
8:58
What brings you joy? And try and incorporate that each day in your
9:03
life. Make it simple. It doesn't have to be big. It doesn't
9:05
have to be a yacht on the riviera or a big, huge and wonderful
9:11
you know, grand hotel that I mean, those things are great, and
9:15
those things are awesome, but so are the simple little things. And sometimes
9:18
the things that bring us the most joy or the simple the simple things that
9:24
we kind of look past or we kind of take for granted. So kind
9:28
of look every day for the simple things and have gratitude for them, say
9:31
thank you for them, even if it's just, Oh, the other day,
9:35
like I can't have I love cats, but I can't have any because
9:41
my grandkids are allergic to them. And the other day a cat just came
9:43
in my backyard and the simplicity of just petting that cat for an hour was
9:48
amazing. So just little tiny things that just bring you pleasure, bring you
9:52
joy. I find those those things are magical. That's where the magic is.
9:56
And I have said this before. The Native Americans believe that everything that
10:01
happens to you has some meaning in it, or has some some magic in
10:07
it, or means or sign in it. And I don't know if everything
10:11
does, but I do believe that coincidences aren't real. I believe that coincidences
10:16
are something that's happening for a reason. So the next one, number four,
10:22
be authentic, be you. You cannot find magic when you're pretending to
10:28
be somebody that you're not. You cannot be happy in a moment where you're
10:31
trying to be like somebody else. You cannot find the magic in the moment
10:35
if you're trying to hide who you truly are, or be who you truly
10:41
are, and and hide your shine. That's if you're trying to to dim
10:46
your sparkle or height or dim your shine, then it's going to make it
10:48
so it's miserable. You're going to be miserable. So if you want to
10:54
be authentically you and you want to find the magic, you need to find
10:56
those people who accept you for who you are. Now that doesn't mean you
11:01
can be rude or you can be overbearing to people. You still have to
11:05
let people have their boundaries. You have to let if if if you're too
11:07
much for people, then find other people that that don't that you're not too
11:13
much for, but don't don't hurt other people's boundaries either. Does that make
11:18
sense? You're gonna if you're authentically you, you're going to find your people.
11:22
You're going to find the people who who accept you for who you are
11:26
and find the people who don't think you're too much or too less. So
11:31
find those people or and be authentically you. Once you become authentically you and
11:35
you you be true to who you are, then you're you're going to find
11:41
those people. It's like a magnet. You're gonna be aligned with the universe
11:43
and they're gonna come to you. Okay. Number five, don't fear happiness
11:50
like we This is kind of like self sabotage, right. I remember one
11:56
time when I was had four kids and we were living in Utah, and
12:05
I remember we saved and saved and saved for these couches and we lived in
12:09
a rental and they didn't even go with the decor nothing. But I love
12:15
these couches so much, and we bought them, and I remember thinking the
12:18
first day we had them, I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm not
12:20
even going to be something bad's going to happen to them either, the kids
12:24
are going to spill something on them. We're not even to be able to
12:26
enjoy them. And then I just thought, you know what, I am
12:30
fearing Like I always had this thing that if something's going to if something is
12:35
going right, if everything's going right, something's going to happen because this can't
12:37
last, This can't last all the time. And I created, I manifested
12:43
the bad things to come because I thought, oh, life is too good.
12:46
Life is too good because I just bought couches, Like really, like
12:50
that's crazy to me now that I think about it, but I just thought,
12:52
oh my gosh, Like, but it was cool that the couch has
12:56
brought me happiness, right, I mean, it's something that I enjoyed.
13:01
It's something that I wanted, and it's something that I strived for that I
13:05
wanted, and so it was cool that I found the magic and the couches,
13:09
but it was sad that I was afraid that it wasn't going to last.
13:11
And so don't fear happiness, don't fear success. Let that go,
13:16
like, just let it happen. Enjoy the journey, enjoy the enjoy the
13:20
journey, enjoy what you're experiencing, and try and find peace in what you're
13:26
experiencing and not always look for a better way. I mean, it's good
13:30
to have goals and it's good to have, you know, to look forward
13:33
to things, but also it's the journey is what's most important. So always
13:37
enjoy the journey. And then I think it's number six. Stay positive.
13:41
Now this isn't like toxic positivity. If there's a problem, fix it.
13:46
If there's something going wrong, try and fix it. Don't like pretend it's
13:50
not happening and be like, oh everything is going to be just fine.
13:54
Try and fix the problem. That's the thing I always told my kids.
13:56
It's not that you're ignoring the problem. If you are ignoring the problem,
14:01
if you're just like, oh, it's gonna be fine, and you pretend
14:03
it's not happening. And so this is not toxic positivity. This isn't like,
14:09
Okay, I'm having these issues at work, but I'm just gonna go
14:11
in there and pretend everything is fine. One, you're not being authentically you.
14:16
Two, it is toxic positivity. You got to feel those emotions,
14:20
you got to deal with those problems, and you got to try and fix
14:22
them. Because I always told my kids that if you complain about it,
14:26
you can fix it. Everything is figure outable. And my kids are always
14:31
like, no, sir, you can't fix if you have a crappy job,
14:33
And I'm like, yes you can. You're afraid to fix it,
14:35
but you can fix it. You can leave that job, you have that
14:39
choice. But one of my kids did say, well, you can't fix
14:43
death, and that is one thing you can't fix, but you can fix
14:48
how to grieve. No, you can't fix how to grieve because you want
14:50
to grieve in your own way and you want to be authentic when you grieve,
14:54
But how you react to a loss is all of it to Because you
15:01
can react by staying home, being depressed, not living out your life the
15:05
way they would want you to, turning to drugs and alcohol, turning to
15:11
those kind of things, or you can grieve and grieve the loss and go
15:16
through those emotions and go through counseling and try to figure out how to move
15:22
forward. So there's always something you can do to make it better, always,
15:28
just you don't have to. The way you think it might be better
15:31
is to have that loss come back, and that's not always true. You
15:33
have to learn to accept it and move forward, or you can dwell in
15:39
it. And I know that's kind of harsh, but that's kind of how
15:43
it is. But if you take a long time degrieve, that's okay too.
15:46
You grieve how you want to because you have to be authentically you,
15:48
but always try to find the gratitude and things. Try and be aware of
15:54
that person or that thing that you loss that you lost and try to celebrate
16:00
that person in the way that you can, or that thing that you lost.
16:03
So if you can complain about it, if you complain about it,
16:07
you can change it. You may not like how to change it, which
16:11
maybe you might have to get out of the relationship, you may have to
16:15
get out of the job. The only thing you can't really change is if
16:19
you're a mother of small children. You can't change. You can't change,
16:26
but you kind of can. You can kind of change how you deal with
16:29
them or how your perception of them is, or how if you have a
16:33
problem instead of just dealing with it, you can try and fix it.
16:37
You can try and say, Okay, this is how I'm going to try
16:40
it tomorrow, or this is how I'm going to try it the next day.
16:42
So if you complain about something, you can figure out how to fix
16:45
it some way or another. But if you can't, if you feel like
16:49
you can't fix it, then you have to change your perception of it,
16:52
right because you have to live in your choices. So if you decide not
16:56
to change it, or you decide to just live in your choices, then
17:00
you've got to change your perception. Okay, So that's the stay positive.
17:04
So just kind of stay positive about your life and stay find the simple things,
17:10
even if there's like some things that are hard, find the simple things
17:12
in each moment. Find the simple things that you can be grateful for even
17:15
if it's just for a cat that comes and visits you in your backyard.
17:19
Just be grateful, even if it's just like flowers that you saw that day.
17:22
Something that you can find that simple, and because those are magical.
17:26
Those may seem ordinary, but they're magical. They're magical moments, right,
17:30
And sometimes those magical moments are your ancestors and your guides, bringing happiness to
17:37
you or simplicity to you in a time that's really really hard. So the
17:41
next one is to work. Find something that you love, find something that
17:48
you like to do. And this is not selfish, and this is not
17:52
I know some of you are like, well, I got to wait till
17:53
the kids grow up, or I've got to don't wait for you to be
17:57
you. Don't wait for you to find happiness in something or to find joy
18:02
in something, because it can be simple, it can be super simple.
18:04
You can find joy in eating a piece of chocolate in the morning before the
18:10
kids wake up. You can find joy in drinking a cup of coffee every
18:14
morning, your favorite kind. You can find joy in watching or listening to
18:19
one of your guilty pleasure of your sitcoms at night when the kids go to
18:22
sleep or when you're by yourself. But find something that you love, and
18:27
that's not really work. Now, the work is when you work work.
18:30
And I know, I don't really believe in the well. I do believe
18:37
in keeping things simple, but I don't believe in working so hard that you
18:41
work yourself to death. Like I believe that there is a fine line between
18:48
work hard and work smart. And I feel like that once you kind of
18:53
but I do feel like that doing work brings you accomplishment and bring you a
19:00
feeling of accomplishment, brings you of a feeling of pleasure because and like meeting
19:07
your goals. So I guess work would mostly be like not maybe on nine
19:11
to five, but having goals and a purpose and working towards that, because
19:15
when you're kind of in a stagnant state, then you're not growing, you're
19:19
not moving and so and that's when you're kind of in limbo. But when
19:23
you're moving forward for something and you kind of know what you want, then
19:27
that's growth and that's work. And so that's what I would consider work.
19:33
So find something to work forward, to work towards, because that brings you
19:36
purpose and brings you pleasure. And the last one would be be aware.
19:41
Be aware of what's going on around you, because there's so many times that
19:45
your loved ones and your ancestors and your guides reach out to you and do
19:51
things like give you signs and symbols, and we just don't see them because
19:53
we're so busy in the chaos and we're so busy in the craziness each day
20:00
that we don't see the signs. And so start maybe meditating a little bit.
20:04
It doesn't have to be it can be moving, meditation, dancing,
20:08
it could be something. But find something that helps you be aware of what's
20:12
going on around you, because you could have a super chaotic moment. I
20:17
remember my grandma came to visit me when I was taking care of my first
20:21
baby, my first daughter, and it was chaotic. She was so so
20:25
collicky. I can't even believe I had other kids because she was so hard.
20:27
I remember sitting in the rocking chair, Oh my gosh, just like
20:32
rocking her and she was crying and I was crying, and it was like
20:34
NonStop because she would cry in her sleep too. So my grandma came to
20:37
help and it was one of those moments where she was crying. I was
20:42
crying. My grandma was like, what do I do? And all of
20:45
a sudden, all of a sudden, one of my baby's toys, one
20:49
of her little toys, like it was like a little musical thing, started
20:53
to play, and all of a sudden, she just the baby started looking
20:59
and she stopped. For just like a brief moment, she stopped crying,
21:03
and for like five minutes, we just listened to this little theme play.
21:07
And my grandma looked at me and she said, you know, that's my
21:11
mom And I said, I know a lot of people would have just was
21:15
like, oh my gosh, that was crazy, that was weird. But
21:18
we knew in the moment that we were. It was hard. It was
21:26
a hard moment, and we knew we were just like making it every second
21:30
right, like you take every minute, just try and get through it.
21:33
Sometimes and that little moment we could have missed it. We could have thought,
21:40
oh, that was just that toy, that toy is just being stupid,
21:42
but we knew, we knew that it was my grandma, my great
21:47
grandmother coming through and helping us and taking and giving us just peace for five
21:52
minutes. And so be aware, be aware of the little things in the
21:56
chaos, and that's when they come most of the time. Like one time,
22:00
you've heard me tell the story about how I put up all the Christmas
22:04
lights and put everything up, and I put up my Christmas tree and I
22:08
didn't check the lights before I put them all and I plugged it in and
22:11
I had four li thet kids running around and I was just trying to get

a Christmas and I said, Dad, the Christmas lights didn't work on the
22:18
tree. Half of them didn't work. And I said, Dad, if
22:19
you want to give me anything for my birthday, please let the Christmas lights
22:23
work. And the next morning they did. So just little things. If
22:27
you're running around and having a moment with the kids and you get in the
22:32
car and a certain song comes on and you know what belongs to someone you've
22:37
lost then, or you know that someone you've lost is sending you a sign
22:41
or sending you that moment, then just breathe, breathe in that moment,
22:47
so be aware, be aware of what's going on, because so many times
22:52
the spirit world reaches out to us and lets us know that there is magic
22:56
in every single day. We are magic. The magic's already inside of you.
22:59
You guys out all the time. So just be you and try and
23:04
try and just get through this journey and be a good person. And it's
23:10
all pretty self explanatory. But sometimes we get so caught up in the chaos
23:12
and so caught up in the mess, and so caught up in the stress
23:15
that we just don't see the simple things, or we don't see the little
23:18
things, and those are the things that are magic, that are magical every
23:23
single day of your life. So I really hope that helps you, guys.
23:27
Magic isn't complex, it's not done in a certain way. It's just
23:32
you. It's who you are, it's what you create, and you create
23:36
the magic. So remember you have everything you need already inside of you.
23:41
And I love you guys so much. And I have so much coming up.
23:45
