Inheritance Revealed Nova Scotia, Yarmouth, NS (2026)

09/02/2026

As I’m sitting here this morning, with the sun rising, feeling the warmth on my face and body, listening to the birds singing, sipping on my fresh celery juice, I picked up our 2026 Inner Oaks guest book sitting on the table beside me.

If I ever have to wonder why I’m doing the work that I am, I just need to sit with this book, read over the comments that have been left for me.

To consciously create is to choose the direction we are going. When we understand this reality, what an opportunity it is to live life to its fullest.

Do the people living on this planet need to awaken? There are many that believe that we do. Many believe that there’s so much more waiting within us and on the sidelines that is asking for our attention.

When our personal senses are awakened, it can set a series of experiences in motion that there is no coming back from. Some refer to this awakening as an expansion of consciousness.

I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately. In fact, I just named the 2 day, 2026 Inner Oaks ladies retreat Conscious Creation. I believe it’s about truly taking steps through awareness. It’s not just about existing but living fully. And yes, it takes commitment and consistency. It’s work, taking care of your body, taking care of your mind and your spirit. Your soul.

Those that have consciously been doing the work for some time now are going to have an easier time of manifesting the life that has been waiting for them. It’s there for all of us. We just have to take the first step and get quiet.

Stepping into a higher consciousness is like coming back into your body and experiencing life differently than the path we were on. It connects us to unseen realms, often beyond our usual perception.

It can be almost like walking through a house you’ve lived in your entire life and suddenly discovering rooms you didn’t know existed. The rooms weren’t created when you awakened. They were always there. You simply became able to see the doors. This powerful energy has always been there.

As we become more aware, we may begin to see things we weren’t ready to see before. Old patterns, beliefs and stories can come to the surface. Sometimes we have to face parts of ourselves we’ve avoided, let go of what no longer serves us and move through experiences that challenge everything we thought we knew.

It isn’t always comfortable, but I believe there is something within us guiding us forward.

As our senses become awakened, we begin to experience the interconnectedness of life. We become more of the observer, able to watch our thoughts, emotions and the stories that we tell ourselves without being completely consumed by them, often shifting into a more positive outlook on life. We begin to let things go, and in turn, we make room for a higher conscious living to come in.

We start to tune into the clues that our bodies are giving us, as the body knows. The soul knows. It might come in as tightening or resistance, a warmth, a lightness or sense of ease, perhaps a heaviness. The body becomes like a compass should we learn to work with its sensations. I’ve learned that if we look out for our body, it will look out for us.

As we continue on the path……

We may notice colours, light, shadows, textures and tiny details that we previously overlooked. Nature can suddenly feel almost extraordinarily beautiful. We may find ourselves stopping to look at leaves, trees, the sky, someone’s face, a sunset or sunrise, or the way sunlight moves across a room. We may be led to tears because it’s that beautiful.

We may begin noticing sounds beneath the obvious sounds: birds in the distance, wind through trees, rippling water, someone’s breathing, the silence. Hearing becomes much more subtle. And sometimes this comes with a greater sensitivity to the energy behind someone’s behaviour and words. We begin to sense what they’re actually communicating before it’s communicated verbally.

Scents can suddenly evoke very strong memories, emotions or feelings of familiarity. It can bring an almost immediate emotional response.

Food can become much more sensory. We may notice sweetness, bitterness, heat and texture in a way we didn’t before. We’ll notice how beautiful fresh produce, berries, fruit and herbs are. We can also become more aware of what our body genuinely wants rather than eating purely from habit or conditioning.

We may become much more aware of our skin while in different temperatures, wind, another person’s touch, the earth beneath our feet, the sensation of our clothing, or our own hands on our body.

And there can be a growing awareness of energy through touch, feeling that a person, place or object has a particular quality to it.

Although over the years I experienced some of these things, what absolutely blew me away when I had my awakening back in 2018 was that I began to experience the following on a deeper, more meaningful level:

Sensing something before you can explain why

Knowing when something feels right or wrong

Becoming highly aware of the energy of people and places

Hearing what someone was going to say before they said it

Recognizing synchronicities

Experiencing stronger dreams

Sensing someone’s emotional state without them saying anything

Feeling deeply connected to nature

Experiencing time differently

Becoming much more aware of my own body’s signals

Noticing that my inner and outer worlds seem to mirror one another

I stopped experiencing life through my mind and stepped into a powerful vortex of sorts that continues to strengthen the quieter I become.

And perhaps the biggest shift for me was when I began to notice how much my heart was opening.

We begin to have more love for ourselves and for others. We become gentler with ourselves and start to see our own experiences, and other people, with more compassion.

Forgiveness starts to come more naturally, forgiving ourselves for the things we’ve done and releasing some of the hurt we’ve carried from others.

We become less judgmental and more understanding. We start to recognize that everyone is on their own journey and doing the best they can from where they are.

We feel more love. We see things differently, but we also feel life differently.

Over the years I’ve had to be patient. I now recognize that an awakening isn’t a destination. There are many layers, and I’m to enjoy the journey as it goes along if I’m going to stay in the flow of this life force energy.

I don’t think stepping into a higher consciousness means that you ever arrive. It’s more about more and more layers being revealed, which leads to asking more questions.

Who is behind all of this? What is in place for us that so many are unaware of? There’s something inside each of us that will call us to step up at some point in our life, and it may come in through difficult experiences that will shift the trajectory of our entire life.

I’ve learned to trust that we are so loved by our creator and that everything works out as it should. I continue to work toward surrendering and trusting in this higher power.

And this is really where my 31 Day Soul Boost Journal comes in.

Launching in October, it’s an accompaniment to my book, Inheritance Revealed. I created it to help us consistently show up for ourselves, to get quiet, become more aware and begin to notice what is happening within and around us.

Because I believe that when we commit to ourselves through a daily practice, something begins to shift. We step into a higher state of awareness, leading to an expanding consciousness where everything is possible.

The Price of Authenticity

Authenticity requires courage, willingness,, and unconditional self-love, self-belief, self- trust, and self-acceptance.

It asks you to release your addiction to external approval and validation.

It asks you to stand firmly in embodiment even when others cannot understand your truth.

Inauthentic people often react to authenticity with resistance because it mirrors the parts of themselves they’ve suppressed.

When you live from your soul, you awaken both inspiration and discomfort in others. Some will admire your light and be inspired by it, while others will avoid it because it will remind them of parts of themselves they have innocently suppressed and denied.

We have the ability to change ourselves, a progression of consciousness that naturally ripples out. What a gift.

It’s Wednesday morning, three mornings after our two-day ladies retreat finale at Inner Oaks.

Yesterday, after a full day of delicious rain, I say that because I was out in it in my long dress, barefoot, playing in the gardens, and it was really quite delightful. What I noticed was the fresh scent of the gardens during the rain, and the lusciousness of the plants. I have much to do in the gardens, and look forward to having a little more time to do so.

I didn’t see one insect in the garden. Usually, the herbs and flowers are covered in bees. I imagine they knew to take cover.

With my basket of fresh herbs, flowers and veggies, I made my way back to the homestead. My dress was soaked, as were my skin and hair.

This morning, I’m sitting on the covered veranda, sipping on my fresh cucumber juice. Five geese just flew overhead, honking. The sun is peeking through, and the bees and hummingbirds are back. My hair is all wavy from the dampness of the rain yesterday.

We truly live in a magical world. When we become present, it’s all that much more obvious.

If you’ve never tried fresh cucumbers through a juicer, you’re missing out. They are absolutely delicious, refreshing and full of antioxidants and nutrients. My body is asking for exactly this after an incredibly busy two weeks preparing for our signature retreat of the season.

Our theme this year was Conscious Creator, and Inner Oaks was the perfect place to host this two-day ladies retreat.

Inner Oaks truly is a portal for healing energies. The flow of the river, so peaceful, the ancient oak trees with stories to tell, the flowers, the herbs, vegetables and berries. We recognized that we are all one. Our respect for this place, the way we continue to nurture it and give it our love, continues to give back to us in abundant ways.

If you’re one of the ladies who attended the retreat, know that collectively, your time here mattered. Together, we consciously created a higher vibration, and we all left the retreat with more than what we came with.

It was a beautiful sight to see and experience.

My heart is full.

There are moments when we look around and wonder how so many in the world have come so far from what feels right, kind and compassionate.

Yet perhaps it isn’t the world that is out of alignment. Perhaps it is the consciousness with which some people are moving through it. These were some of my thoughts yesterday.

And then today, throughout the early morning, Spirit showed me a vision that brought the thought into a completely different perspective.

A jar of my house salad dressing.

The oil had separated from the other ingredients. Everything the salad dressing needed was right there in that one jar. Nothing was missing. But as it was, it was out of balance and couldn’t be used.

All it needed was to be warmed and shaken.

With a little movement, everything would come back together. It would become whole again.

Did Spirit show me this as a metaphor for us?

Yes, I was shown that we have everything we need within us to be whole. Nothing is missing. Sometimes we become out of alignment because of what life throws at us, and we need to take the steps in the right direction to bring ourselves back together.

That’s the work I offer, morning practices that expand us, deepen our understanding of ourselves and others, and bring us into a higher state of being, back into alignment with the whole again.

We begin to see what needs to be let go of, acknowledge it, thank it, release it, and make room for what is waiting to come in, what is truly for our highest good.

Why? So we can experience a less reactive, healthier, kinder and happier way of being. So we can each do our part to bring more light into the world, collectively joining with others who are also doing the work of coming back into alignment.

Because the work we do within ourselves ripples outward. How we show up in the world matters. The more of us who choose to live from a place of greater awareness, kindness and balance, the greater our collective impact becomes.

What an interesting day - definitely feeling the power it held.

Today, August 8th, marks the powerful 888 Lionsgate, a potent energetic portal and one of the most significant days of the year for those who feel called to work with higher consciousness and intentional creation.

8/8 carries the energy of infinity, abundance, alignment and expansion.

A beautiful day to pause, become still, listen inward, and consciously choose what you are ready to call forward.

What are you creating?
What are you releasing?
What are you ready to receive?

The work I do is all about reaching a higher consciousness. I truly believe that is where all of our gifts await. 💜

Our upcoming ladies retreat is entitled Conscious Creation for that very reason. So exciting!

As I sit under the covered veranda, eyes closed, with the warmth of the rising sun on my face, I begin to hear a humming… a fluttering. Although I haven’t seen it, I know it to be a hummingbird making its presence known to me this morning.

Stillness — every part of my being craves this.

This morning, I’m reflecting on how busy our minds can become and how easily we can move away from being present.

The mind will have us running from one thing to the next — doing, planning, thinking, and staying occupied. It will come up with all kinds of things, even convincing us that we want to experience life at its fullest. It will give us ideas of things to attend or join, while at the same time giving us excuses for why there is no time to slow down.

It can keep us so busy that we forget the importance of centring ourselves and returning to the breath, the body, and the moment we are in.

Yet, it is in stillness that the opportunity to experience something deeper in life is present. For in stillness lies a higher state of being. A personal connection with unseen realms of consciousness — universal energy, our creator, our higher self. In stillness lies our greatest joy.

Within that higher consciousness, we have the opportunity to experience life on a whole other level.

A life of connection, remembering and belonging.

Stillness is a practice. It asks us to slow down, to become aware, and to be fully present with ourselves.

I was guided in this direction after I sold my restaurant back in 2017. But it wasn’t until 2019 that I truly began to understand what I’m sharing with you now.

And so, I put in place a morning routine where each day I begin in stillness. I set the tone for my day ahead.

This practice has allowed me to become more aware, more present, and more connected. It has allowed me to tune into intuitive channels that I may not have been able to connect with before. It has shifted me into different frequencies over the last few years and allowed me to connect with others who are on a similar frequency.

While I’ve hosted many experiences over the 2026 summer season, I keep coming back to offering Soul Boost mornings for my guests. This is where I’m called to create right now.

Along with my group Soul Boost experiences, I offer personalized Soul Boost mornings for guests staying in one of my three overnight rooms at Inner Oaks. Guests can check in the evening before, settle into the experience, and spend a meaningful morning with me through mindful practices for centring the mind, body, and spirit, followed by a delicious healthy breakfast on the covered veranda.

A beautiful opportunity to slow down, reset, and reconnect in this beautiful location along the Quinan River. If you’re at a point in your life that you could benefit from this - reach out. ✨

A review that arrived in my inbox early this morning from a guest that attended a Soul Boost experience yesterday.

Everything about this experience was wonderful and beautifully organized. Thank you for your generosity, your presence, and for sharing your knowledge with such warmth. With gratitude,

Josée

It is an inspiring, never-ending journey, one that I am forever grateful for. - Laura Muise

My view this early morning.

07/28/2026

You know that feeling when you wake up and you’re feeling extra good. When you have no limitations weighing you down. When you don’t listen to that inner voice, the one that takes you away from your true, authentic self, and you’re quiet enough to hear that beautiful intuitive guidance.

Well, today’s that day!

I love my daily gratitude practice, setting intentions before my day begins. Conscious creation at its finest, we have the ability to step into the life we desire. It’s a beautiful place to be.

Super excited my 31-day Soul Boost Journal is in the final stages, getting formatted to be uploaded to Amazon. It will be available to a much larger audience than I could possibly provide by keeping it only local.
