What areas of your life could you bring more patience to?

Blue Heron

Meaning, Messages & Magic

Blue Heron & Egret symbolize being calm, present, at peace, unique, and in balance. Blue Heron asks you to look inside and nurture all aspects of yourself. Embrace your “flaws”, uniqueness, and feelings of shame with self-love. Once you love your whole self and find your inner peace, you’ll be able to bring peace to others, spreading healing throughout the world. Breath deep, stand in each moment, feel the full spectrum of emotions, and lead with your heart. 

 

Blue Herons walk slowly or stand still for long periods of time when waiting to catch fish, trusting that what they need will come to them at the right time.

 

What areas of your life could you bring more patience to?

Sharpen your awareness so you’re ready whenever “it” arrives.

Marlene has helped me...

“Marlene has helped me survive school, maintain friendships, increase my exercise level, and teach me ways to calm down. I have learned how to have more gratitude towards myself and the world around me. Marlene taught me some breathing and stretching exercises that we practice during our meetings.  I like that stretching helps my muscles become stronger and breathing makes me feel calmer about the rest of the day.  Marlene is a very nice person and I enjoy our sessions together.”
