The Shift is Happening
It is a rainy Monday here near Seattle and I feel so great. I feel hopeful and supported by spirit more than ever. I slept in my camper last night for the first time in about two weeks and I slept so great and woke up in nature (on my friend’s property) I went outside to get my day started in the rain and I was greeted by two deer staring at me from about one hundred feet away, I just love being in the woods.
The last post I was at a coffee shop excited to put my computer away and read my book while I relaxed for a bit, however, that is not how that Friday afternoon went. Before I put my computer away an old man had sit beside me and was awaiting his tea. I politely said hello and welcomed him when he sit in the chair next to mine. As I was putting my computer away and grabbing my book to read, he spoke to me and I allowed myself to book in my lap and let him enlighten me with this conversation. He shared that he is eighty eight years old and about to make his winter trip down to Palm Springs and he mentioned he returns to the area in May of the following year. I will not share the details of our conversation, however, I felt so guided to be there at that time to have that conversation with that soul and be supportive of him and receive the wisdom that he shared in our conversation. WOW! I left that coffee shop feeling so full of love and guidance, it is hard to put it into words.
On Friday night we had a guest teacher at the studio from Seattle and she shared her creation of a particular type of yoga class. It was a wonderful experience and I am happy I was able to attend. The following day I had a morning appointment with a client that if anything reminded me that I am on the right path with the things I am learning and I am so happy to be serving and doing the work I am able to do. I had an afternoon appointment to meet with a good friend who had bought a big parcel of land years ago and since has not been able to move forward with his previous plans of building on the land. I had the best time making our way through the gorgeous forest and I can’t wait to spend more time there allowing the plants and animals speak to us and tell us what should happen with that space on Earth. I know the area is a sacred area, I could feel the energy of it and I can feel spirit supporting me along the way through the creative process. I have always known I want to host healing retreats and I feel that right now, I just take one step at a time and allow myself to be supported along the way with the brilliant people I am meeting in my life right now.
What I have learned in the journey is there is no formula for anyone except to take care of yourself. No one can tell you exactly how you need to take care of you, this is part of the human journey is to get in touch with your spirit, your inner guidance and allow yourself to get quiet enough to listen to the inner wisdom that you have always had. For me, slowing down has been the best thing in my life. I can finally feel better in my body, I feel better in my heart. I am not living a conventional life, however, I am happier than I have been in years. I feel connected to myself and I feel connected to the divine energy that guides us all.
