One crazy, busy Day.


Starting the week off with a bang.

I hope all of you are having great day. This week it is pedal to the medal when it comes to getting some stuff done. Sometimes you just have to take a leap of faith, and although I don't really know what I'm doing or if it's the right thing or not, I'm taking the leap.

I love this quote: If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am only for myself, what am I? If not now, when? (this quote is from a yoga sutras book that I don't have with me right now, but I'll let you all know the name when I do!)

It goes on to say that the true purpose of yoga is to discover that aspect in us, that can never be lost. Although our jobs may change, relationships may change, our bodies may change, beliefs may change, desires may change, your ideas about the roles you play in the world may change, but the essence of who you are is the continuity of awareness that has no beginning or end.

So although we are always experiencing change, there is a place in each of us that is constant. I refer to this place as "the root" or "core" of our being. When we are in line with ourselves, and living from this place that is constant and connected then we are shown the way, always. It may seem hazy, cloudy, foggy and the path may be long, but no feat is ever too great when we are following our hearts.
