Awaken Your Inner Awesomeness with Melissa Oatman-A daily dose of spirituality and self improvement

Are you in alignment with what you’re hoping to manifest? When we get out of alignment, we tend to focus on the outcome of a particular thing. When we’re in alignment, we don’t need to worry about the outcome. We relinquish control. We don’t need to worry because we know that the Universe has our back. When we get out of alignment, we are questioning whether or not the universe is really going to...

Do you make it a regular habit of clearing your energy every day? Sometimes in our day-to-day interactions, we pick up on other people’s energy. If we are around negative people, then they could be affecting our own beliefs and attitudes. It’s important to clear our energy each and every day of any negative energy that we may have picked up on. When you don’t clear your energy, you allow other peo...

Have you ever struggled with body image issues? I was amazed to learn that 70% of teenaged girls and 40% of teenaged boys have experience body image issues. It stands to reason that many of those teams will grow up becoming adults who have body image issues. It’s a very common problem. In today’s episode I talk about what body image problems are, and I explain how to help relieve those issues. If...

Yesterday’s episode cut off. Here is the complete version. As much as we may want some people in our lives to change, we simply cannot force our will upon their’s. What I have learned is that when I choose to focus on myself and my own healing, others around me begin to shift as well. We cannot mess with anyone’s free will. People come here to learn lessons, and when we infringe upon someone else’...

You may have noticed that the beginning of 2020 has been difficult for some people including myself. We are beginning a new decade, and the Universe is testing us to see whether or not we are ready to manifest the things we want to see in our lives. Many of us are up leveling, which means that the Universe has to see whether or not we are ready to advance. It’s important for you to understand that...

Are you living a life that you love? Sometimes we get busy, and we just go through the motions in life. The Universe is telling you today that it’s time for you to start loving your life more.

When we are more mindful of being present in life, we see all the blessings that really do surround us. I...

Have you closed off your heart to love? Is your heart chakra blocked? When we’ve been hurt, we tend to put walls up around our hearts.  We become guarded and even cynical towards love. The Universe is saying that it’s time to unblock your heart chakra. It’s time to open it up and to remove the wall surrounding your heart. We came here to experience love in all of its forms. You can’t experience lo...

Are you a passenger in the car of life? Sometimes we tend to take a backseat role in our own lives instead of taking the driver seat. The Universe is saying to you today that it’s time to take charge of your own life.

Are you an empath? Many people are empaths and have no idea what that even means. If you pick up easily on others emotions, or are very sensitive to what’s going on around you, then you may be an empath. In today’s episode, I talk about the signs that show you may be an empath. I also talk about how to deal with your sensitivity to other people’s emotions. It’s important to understand how to shiel...

Do you have a victim mindset?  Many people do, and they don’t even realize it. They tend to think that bad things just naturally happen to them or that life isn’t fair. The truth is that some people suffered from traumatic events in their childhood. Being a victim is actually a natural response to certain traumas. Our brains also tend to focus on the negative. It’s important that we identify when...

Are you being tested by The Universe. I was being tested a lot during the first few days of the new year. I realized though that this is just The Universe asking me if I am ready to go big. You see, if we want to uplevel, we have to be ready for it. When we are being tested, it’s important to stop and look at how we reacted. Have we changed our behavior, or are we still allowing every little thing...

Are addictions taking over your life? We can be addicted to many different things. We can be addicted to drugs or alcohol, sugar and food, or even behavior patterns like procrastination. It doesn’t matter what you are addicted to.  Addictions affect our lives by keeping a stock and patterns of behavior that aren’t serving us. It’s not your fault. Addictive behavior served a purpose at one point in...

What labels have you collected over the years?  I was always told that I wasn’t very athletic and that math wasn’t my strong suit. The problem with labels is that they are often unfair or inaccurate, and we let them define us for the rest of our lives. I never tried to play sports because i thought I wasn’t good at them. As an adult, i realized that i wasn’t half bad at sports, and they were fun....

When things happen to us in life that are beyond our control, it’s easy to lose our cool. What’s important is understanding how to keep our emotional balance in these times. We have a whole team who is ready to help us at a second’s notice. All we have to do is call on our team, and they will help us immediately. We need to get into the habit of remaining calm, calling on our team, and keeping our...

Are you allowing fear to block you from your blessings? If you are overthinking and questioning everything in life, then you are most certainly blocking your blessings. The Universe wants you to be happy, and the Universe wants to provide you with all the things you want in life. When you focus on how those things are gonna come to you you make things really complicated for yourself. The Universe...

Sometimes the holidays can be more of a headache than they are a blessing. There are gifts to buy, goodies to bake, and don’t forget about toxic family members to be around.

Do you feel physically ill at the mention of money?  That is a fear based reaction. When we fear money, we are essentially blocking it. When we understand that money is just energy and can come in easily, we allow it to flow easily. Money doesn’t have to be a source of frustration for you. It can come in easily. In today’s episode, I talk about how.  Contact me: https://melissaoatman.com melissaoa...
