Awaken Prana

Im in love with life and the joy everyone and everything brings to me.  I bask in the love light that seeps out of every soul in this universe. Yoga awakens my inner spirit and lets me know my true self.  Im relearning the ways of life or shall I say im awakening what I already know.  In this vessel of mine a sacred lotus flower resides slowly unfurling with the increase of prana and non attachment. Once that flower has bloomed a blue vibrant light will illuminate my spirit and I will feel a love I have never felt before.  This journey I have chosen to take is a beautiful path of awakening and letting go. Im so grateful to have shared a connection with my beautiful friend Jaryn. Since the day I met this beauty I felt I had know her for life times.  With this sacred connection we have formed  trust within each other.  We had the pleasure of being photographed by our lovely friend Diane Nicole Clifford. The photos she captured of us shows our happiness and love for life.  They are raw, natural and elegant.  Thank you for this day I will never forget it.

She speaks with love

I have learned to love myself. Oh how i thought I knew.  The feeling of being strong not only on the outside but on the inside. Feeling my spirit grow like a tree.  My seeds have been planted long ago but I am now just learning how to water them to make them grow.  Not listening to the mind and letting prana speak.  What a soft voice she has so delicate yet so powerful.  If only we all listened to her and felt the goodness from within. Taking the time to breathe and feel the light caress my skin.  With moments like these what else do we need.  The stillness and quiet touch of the air we call life speaks so much more than words.  Inhail light exhale love. Even on a dreary day I feel like the sun is shining.  The flowers smell sweeter and the cardnal always comes out from the branches to remind us of our inner light. That light that only speaks of good never evil.  Les take time quiet our voices and listen to what she has to say.

Soooooo much abundance

Sweet dreams

Ok so I have to document this dream I had last night.  One of the most amazing dreams I have ever had. Heres the story.  Last night we went camping for New Years and celebrated in nature.  It was getting towards the end of the night and my throat was feeling sore so I decided to get some rest.  I got into bed and could not stop shivering for about an hour. I was soooooooo cold.  I felt like one of those vibrating cat toys. So I told my self fall asleep and it will be ok.  So I finally fell asleep and I started to dream of all these native womens bringing me blankets they had made and were putting them over me. I was so grateful they were taking care of me.  I woke up and was perfectly warm.  It was so amazing.  Im so thankful for these native american goddesses.  Wow is all I can say and thank you to those spirits that look after me. So much love and ready for this new year.

Reflection

With December and the winter solstice there is so much to reflect upon and with the last day of the year coming tomorrow I have a few things I would like to reflect upon. This past year has gone by so fast and so much has happened and changed.  I look back at the beginning of the year and where I was at with my thoughts and feelings about life and who I was.  I feel like I was some what confused about who I was and where I belonged. I was not grounded and felt somewhat in limbo.  There was something missing. My connection with the divine spirit and with myself. Yoga was what turned everything around. It all began when my friend Jaryn and I started playing and practicing Acro Yoga.  I can remember the feeling of bliss when we did our first transition. Its the most indescribable feeling.  Our connection and friendship became so strong and now we are practically sisters.  We complete each others sentences.  Its so wonderful to feel that strong of a friendship and bond. I love her so much and am so thankful to have her in my life. I feel like I have grown and feel so comfortable with myself now.  I know who I am and I have a connection with the earth that I have not had before.  I am stronger and more connected with my boyfriend drew than I have ever been.  The 3 years we have been together have been the best 3 years of my life.  We both teach each other.  Something recently has changed with us though. I know when that change happened but I dont want to talk about it yet because I feel the universe is still deciding things so that will all be talked about when things come together.  The funny thing is I remember during summer solstice our friends put intentions in the fire of what we wanted to change and what intentions we had for the year. One of my intentions was to go on a trip with my mother.  We just booked a trip to Hawaii :) Its so beautiful how things work out. The new year is going to bring so much happiness and love I can feel it.  We just have to remember things cant always be perfect so in those time of sadness theres always a light at the end of the tunnel, just have faith and things will be ok.  So cheers to the new year and all it has to offer! Its gonna be a year to remember.

Here are some photographic memories from this past year:

Darkness is only the absence of light

Wow the weather here in St.Augustine has been wet and dreary for over a week or more now!  This type of weather has a tendency to make me and im sure others a wee bit down.  Its funny because the dark weather seems to make us feel dark.  I think its really important to be positive and happy during these times of darkness.  If we spread light then soon enough the darkness will rise and we will have sunny days once again.  It wont last forever and you just have to take what life gives you. Everyday is a blessing and we should realize that more often.  So everyone lets spread a little light during this holiday season and  the earth will give us light back.  Remember everything is a test. So lets take everything as a learning experience.  Heres a little food for thought. Yesterdays history, tomorrows a mystery but today is a gift. Shine on beautiful souls.

Love, light and always flight

Here is a tip for wet dreary days. Brighten up your wardrobe and spread light with your  clothing.

The right direction

Ahhhhhh life is so beautiful and full of constant change.  You have to embrace the good and the bad.  I feel like this month, the month of the dark moon has been a very challenging time.  I would describe it as hectic and heavy.  Mercury was in retrograde and things seemed to be all over the place! Thankfully Mercury has moved out of retrograde and were moving towards winter Solstice.   Winter Solstice brings regeneration & renewal.  I feel like this is whats happening right when December started.  I recreated my jewelry and hand bag line and am embarking on my yogic journey through life.  Life has been so uplifting and bright lately. In January my best friend and acro partner Jaryn and I will be setting out on our journey to Miami for our first acro immersion.  What a start to a new year! Im focusing my intention this month and for life to decrease fear in my life and focus on the love and light that surrounds our spirit.  Here are a few pictures from a photo shoot I just did embracing my Native American roots that run through my veins. So much love in these pictures.

Missing the kiss of the sun

Man this always seems to happen to me during winter.  I miss the days of running to the beach and jumping in the warm water and having blonde tipped hair and dark tan skin.  Im a creature of the sun and sea.  When its taken from me its all I long for.  This is perfect camping weather though so ill just have to get my camping fill in.  Until warm weather returns ill be dreaming of it .
