Adult Lullabies for an Ocean of Inner Peace

We made it to the west coast of Florida! We will begin on our RV adventures tomorrow. We have been with family and it has been a blessing to feel a bit of normalcy for a bit of time. I will keep you posted on our trip plans.

I just came home from 2 weeks in San Diego as my husbands' sister went into hospice. Everyday, I dedicated myself to yoga and some walking. The last few days I missed my daily practice. I could totally feel the difference in my mind set. If we don't have some sort of daily inward discipline, we will get lost in the mindset of others and the outside world. We are being coaxed by the energies of light that are pouring onto the planet right now. Many might be feeling huge anxiety from the collective consciousness of fear. Developing a daily discipline for nurturing our spirit and soul helps us to maintain equanimity or balance. It's a must to have something that's soothing right now. The outside world is not peaceful nor calming. We need to find a way to self soothe or else we will fall into the mindset of the outside world. Here are some questions to ponder. Does the outside world nurture our souls? Where do you receive daily nourishment? I can't stress enough the importance of a daily practice. My daily practice consists of yoga, meditation, and time in nature. When I have extra time, I add in chanting and my bowl practice. I try to add in all of these practices daily. I grew up with huge anxiety and depression. Going without a daily discipline is not an option for me. In these energies, I could easily fall into that place of depression again. If you have never had anxiety growing up, you may be experiencing it now because of the intensity of the light pouring onto the planet. It is pushing people to their edge. As we get closer to the December solstice, 12/21, we will experience more of these strong energies. Here is one suggestion for calming the nervous system: Breathing in through the nose for five counts, hold your breath for five counts, and exhaling slowly for five counts. I would suggest at least 5-11 minutes of practice. "The wound is the place where the light enters in" -Rumi Try reflecting on the following mantras over and over to shift consciousness. Daily Mantra I am grateful, I am filled with gratitude, I am grateful I am peace, I am filled with peace, I am peace I am love, I am filled with love, I am love I am healthy and balanced in every part of my life All is in divine harmony

Welcome 2021! Happy New Year friends! As we enter a new day, new year, and eventually new world, let's remind ourselves that we were made for these times. We stand on the threshold of old energies conflicting with the new energies that are enveloping our beloved earth. There is a clash in vibration that will take us a bit to adjust and transition into a healthier and more vibrant planet. We definitely saw that clash yesterday! We have everything inside of us to thrive. As we continue to recover and find our centers from 2020, feel inspired that we are in a new cycle of energies. This year adds up to the number five. As the clash of vibrations continues we may feel challenges from the outside world for a few more months. However, unlike 2020 this number five (2021) year is about possibilities, opportunities, and potentials that aren't yet visible to our naked eye. We need to keep meditating on peace and visualizing white light surrounding our planet. As for my personal life, we have been through a challenging year with deaths in the family and illness. My husband and I are planning on traveling for the month of February and part of March. We will be stopping in different locations to offer sacred sound healing in person and on zoom and visiting national parks. As we get closer to leaving on 1/25/21, we will have our schedule fairly worked out. My newsletters will go down to once a week. However it will be filled with inspiration and adventure. Please reach out to me if you live in the southern states so we can try to make it work to visit with you. It will be an honor and privilege to see old friends and new ones. "If you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul." -Rabbi Harold Kushner "Look at everything as though you were seeing it for the first or the last time, then your time on earth will be filled with glory." -Betty Smith
