Being allegiant about who you are and who you are not.

                                                                     -Shirley Maclaine

I love this because I focus on who I am not or my deficiencies. I need to be loyal to who I am and see the beauty in who I really am. Embrace it, and Own it  

The sun is shinning today so I am off to explore the landscape and breath fresh air.

Challenge Week

So, I am challenging myself to post on my blog everyday for the next 7 days. I will post inspirations, thoughts, frustrations, explorations just anything I want to share.

I read this book by Twyla Tharp and she says to make creativity become routine, set aside some time to do your creative thing. So, I am setting aside some time to do my thing.

What have you challenged yourself to do in the last month for one week? I would love to hear from ya.

New Adventures

Do something you haven't tried before.


Like riding the ski lift at Mount Hood with the sun shining on the snow which makes it look like crystals. This was my first time to ever ride a lift and it was exhilarating. The view was magnificent of Mount Hood, Mount Jefferson and The Sisters.

We were the only ones without skis or a snowboard but don't let that stop you from having a experience. I must say that doing something out of your norm empowers the soul and must be done daily so we can break our minds of thinking that we can't.


BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW WE CAN IF WE JUST LET GO OF THE MENTAL CHATTER!

FOCUS can hurt but it is the only way to delve deeper into something. 
                                                                                           -Danielle Laporte
Wow, this was a moment for me because I tend to want to dabble in many things. However this statement is so true and enriches your experience. What do you want to delve deeper into?

Getting out is a great way to ignite creativity and cultivate inner joy.
Where is your place?

Kumare

Wow, I just watched the movie called Kumare on Netflix about a false prophet that transforms himself into a guru. His whole teaching is that we are all alike and have a guru that resides within each one of us. This film was so insightful and showed me how much we believe in others and not ourselves. How we are searching for community. How we need someone to really listen to us without telling us what to do.

So, yoga can unite us with ourselves and bring us to that quiet stillness we seek. Meditation can provide us with inner peace and joy.

So, I ask this who is our inner guru? What does that person look like? What does that person act like? What does that person do to bring out the inner joy?

What yoga gives me!

Yoga
for me is the crucial element of connection with oneself
 
 And what I mean by that is the Asanas
we do aid us in our ability to be compassionate,

be grounded in our values and bodies,
also to see that life has a bigger purpose and
Yoga
 carries us to that place of connection with
ourselves as well as those around us!
