37. Tracey Noriega - As an Empowering Angel, “taking pen to paper” is highly recommended over typing when initially telling one’s story. It is a definite difference in experience. I personally am unable to type my feelings and must write it out by hand th

Tracey is passionately devoted to her life purpose of faithfully standing for others to help them believe and trust the possibilities within themselves so that they are liberated and free to go build an adventurous life that counts! She adamently believes this begins with learning how to live more mindfully and using positive coping skills having come from a blended family where alcoholism, emotional, sexual and drug abuse were prevalent on all sides.

Tracey is excited to be releasing her first children’s book on mindfulness. The “Mind Your Monkey Mind” book series was born out of the impromptu stories she made up during the first five years of co-parenting her partner’s nephew. Jesse was removed from his home at the age of six by Child Protective Services for gross neglect, child abandonment and drug abuse. Jesse would become one of Tracey’s greatest teachers stretching her beyond all comfort zones and triggering latent wounds that would require endless opportunities for unconditional love, forgiveness, acceptance, compassion, patience, healing, and a deeper surrender. She credits her meditation and mindfulness practice for her resilience and perseverance.

he had unwittingly devised a “method” of sorts that she would put into use that seemed to work for her to get through trying times. A framework had been discovered from the hodgepodge of lessons, books, exercises, and courses from everything she had ever studied and learned from a variety of spiritual teachings, metaphysics, Universal Law, plant medicine, an assortment of alternative health practices, mindset training, behavior coaching and a multitude of different therapies. The first step is deep conscious breathing to calm one’s “monkey mind” and all the emotions that were triggered. The next step is to bring Awareness to the situation, followed by taking Responsibility (as in being “able to respond” versus react) and then deciding to make a new Choice. She coined this “The ARC Method” and began mentoring the method to test its efficacy and benefits with others during the pandemic. The results and feedback from all who participated have been very positive and encouraging.

Tracey has made the powerful choice to leave her fifteen years of service in healthcare to serve humanity and raise the collective consciousness as a socially conscious entrepreneur. She co-founded Pay It 4ward Productions to launch her mindful projects. She will continue developing the ARC Method as part of her mentoring program, “Making Shift Happen!” to individuals and groups with the goal of breaking into the sectors of mental health, social work and education. She fully intends to use her “Mind Your Monkey Mind” children’s books, the Tell Your Story Blueprint, and the Empower in An Hour game as part of her arsenal to accomplish the mission and vision of a more mindful world where respect, kindness and cooperation are the new normal. She is also the host of the grassroots vlogcast “Power to the PEEPS” where she proudly presents the positive stories of everyday people making a difference by serving others with their extraordinary gifts and service. These live interviews can be found on the “Paying It 4ward!” YouTube Channel where she shares a variety of videos on the subject of mindfulness.
Speaks About

• How writing has literally saved my life! I was lucky to have received my first diary at the age of 8 from my mother who journaled regularly. It was encouraged and modelled for me that if I had a lot of emotions that I could not verbalize or knew what to do with, then I was to go to go write it out!
  
• I fear that not requiring kids to learn handwriting is a form of a “learned disability”. I can think of no advantage by not being taught how to handwrite. In fact it is a detriment to society in my opinion.
