Recently I was speaking with the amazing Heather Hildebrand. I consider her one of my personal, spiritual healers. Heather often asks me what I am doing for fun and I almost always fail that test. You’d think that with my natural upbeat manner, love of all things Disney, and (of course) that giggle of mine that I would be up to my ears in fun. But it’s just not true.
You see, I’m a notorious work-a-holic. Think about it for a moment… I’ve created 6 decks, 3 books, and 3 video courses in the last 6 years. I’m working on 3 new decks at once right now! That’s a lot. Other Hay House authors think I’m crazy!
In a recent session with Heather, her golden advice to me was ,“Radleigh, if you had a Vitamin D deficiency, you’d take Vitamin D. You my friend, have a fun deficiency. You need to be taking Vitamin F!”
I thought that was hilarious! However, I also thought it was very insightful.
Of course, I love having fun. It’s not that I don’t want to play. It’s just that I have so much work stacked up, that I forget to make time for it. It doesn’t make it on to my “to do” lists.
And trust me… if it’s not on my “to do” lists, it does NOT get done.
I am for sure not getting enough Vitamin F. Does that sound like you?
So, let’s brainstorm this together. How do we fix this?
First of all, make a list of 20 things you like to do for fun. Please keep in mind, that when Heather suggested this to me, I failed that exercise too. I only came up with 6 items. But hey, at least there were 6 that I could focus on as I added to the list.
Secondly, put a reminder in your calendar that asks you “Did you have fun today?” Let your calendar nag you about it.
Next, get a friend to hold you accountable. Let them nag you, too.
Finally, don’t make having fun be a burden. If you’re super busy, at least take 10 minutes to do something that makes you smile, makes you laugh, and gives you happiness.
Even I can spare 10 minutes.
Consider this your angelic prescription for Vitamin F.
Take daily.
Angel blessings,
~Radleigh
What the “In-Between” Taught Me About Happiness
The last year and a half of my life has been perhaps the most self-revelatory of my entire life. I do not recall a moment in my past where I have been as dedicated or as intrigued to understand who I truly am. In some ways, that really saddens me. It seems such a...
I Cleaned Out a Closet and Found a Version of Myself I’d Forgotten
You do not want to know how many times I have moved in my life. No seriously. You wouldn’t believe me if I told you. While I know most people do not like change, I seem to love it. I tease people that as a quintuple Sagittarius, I eat change sprinkled on my Wheaties...
2025 Has Flipped Me. And I’m Grateful.
“Fascinating.” Yes, that’s “fascinating” with a period after it not an exclamation point. I grew up watching shows like Star Trek so to me… the word “fascinating” is supposed to be said curiously with one eyebrow raised like Mr. Spock. This whole year for me has been...
The Sprinter’s Spiritual Lesson
Looking back, I cannot recall a time where my life has been so much about learning about myself. Why don’t we do this when we’re young? It would save us so much time and trouble! We could make such better choices if we were just taught to “know thyself.” One of the...
Holding Hope Without Holding on Too Tight
I have a question for you. How does one balance holding hope in your heart without also creating a powerful attachment to the outcome? Seriously, I’m asking. To me, this is a spiritual highwire act. Hope and optimism are powerful manifestors. They bring our heart’s...
