after

how long does it take to come back and meet yourself?

how many wrong turns, breathtaking views, how many detours can you take before you end up home again?  

how long do you run from what can't be outrun?

where do you hide from your own beating heart?

breathe in.
breath out.
remember who you are?
remember the clay you're shaped from.

ten years to face what can never be faced.

a decade of hiding from your own breaking heart.

only to feel it break again as if no time had passed at all.

as if you closed your eyes
and opened them in the dim light
of a parking garage.
in the passenger seat of a car.
listening to the last words ever spoken.

how many songs and conversations to cover what can never be unheard?

how many years of silence would erase it?

these are the words that made you.

and you can never be unmade.

exhale compassion

compassion mudra:

- Sit tall with arms outstretched at shoulder height, fingers spread wide, palms face forward.

- Steady and deepen your breathing.

- As you inhale turn your head to gaze at your right thumb.  As you exhale gaze back to center.

- Repeat this 4 times, the do the same on the other hand.

- As you breath feel a flow of acceptance, love and compassion through the heart and arms.

(if you'd like to receive my monthly yoga newsletter, send me a comment.  this month is about compassion.)

ultimate selfie

 

I've been working diligently on my new website, which I will promote here when it's finished.  Today I took headshots.  Of myself.  Which if you've never tried it, is a very interesting/challenging project.

another year.  2013 has been my luckiest year so far. last halloween was my golden birthday and 31 is my favorite number and all the omens that a superstitious person, such as myself, would expect to go along with these auspicious numbers rolled out on schedule.  

- journey to a far off paradise.  check.
- meet the love of my life on a beach under a meteor shower on the 13th. that happened.
- carry on a whirlwind romance, literally around the world.  of course.
- take the next step into a new life of health and radiance. (i.e. get certified, start teaching yoga) obviously.
- learn another language.  claro.
- return home and relocate in colorado for real.  yes, that too. (well sort of! once a gypsy always a gypsy)
- have the most epic adventures yet!  see: posts on thailand, guatemala, corcovado, moab, etc.

-and finally, celebrate the 3113 birthday in the sedona vortexes with said love. 

things are going quite well!  i'm a little sad to be leaving 31 behind;  i loved it, gloried in it.  i do feel pretty good about all that i wrung forth from it though.  now i am 32.  which means that all my younger friends are finally in the 30's with me!  (you know who you are ; )
my hope for the coming year is to step it up even more.  what i mean by that is; just reach a bit further (or maybe alot further!) in every endeavor.  i want to become stronger, fitter, wiser, braver, more compassionate, more thoughtful, kinder, etc, etc, etc.

the stage has been set for epicness, let's see what i can manifest this year.  i love you, xx.
