Happy New Year!

I wholeheartedly believe that every day is a NEW day and an opportunity for change, but I do LOVE the fresh start of a new year.

Some of my resolutions in no particular order :

  1. take photos
  2. YOGA
  3. de-clutter my life
  4. eat a probiotic every day
  5. be a better friend
  6. be dedicated
  7. run a half marathon AGAIN with my sister
  8. LOVE more
  9. grow gently
  10. let everything GO

I intend on spending this year getting healthier than I have EVER been and I am well on my way! I also plan on dedicating myself to consistency and routine in my determination to live FULLY and healthfully. As a fellow teacher Erin Telford said, I want to live my life as an invitation. It’s the reverse idea of feeling like you have to “get out there”. You can just live your life in such a way that your presence magnetizes, that the way you show up is prayer and that the way you love and feel calls what will need for your next level of experience and froth to arrive gently and easily.

What are some of your resolutions?

Choosing LOVE

I am making it a personal part of my practice to stop sweating change and the constant evolutionary process.
I am choosing to sink in and love it all. It’s natural, it is normal, it is karmic, it is correct.
We are ALWAYS in it or just coming out of it or just going back in and sometimes we match up with the people closest to us and it feels normal and sometimes we don’t and it feels rough and lonely.
It’s just what’s happening. Sometimes it feels terrible, painful and despairing. Sometimes it’s joyful, easy and inspired. We get locked in to this idea that “happy” is the correct way to be all the time. This idea that we have to be happy all the time creates a ton of judgment if we feel angry, sad, bummed.
I believe that when we are “in it” is when the actual healing is happening. It’s like being in war with your soul and that’s okay. Can you roll with pretty and non pretty reality? It’s so serious and also not so serious at all.
