Our everyday life is often filled with responsibilities, planning and performing, oh so busy. That is not bad, there’s beauty in it, but it often makes us overwhelmed, stressed and dull. Little things start to feel like big things. Making dinner and doing the dishes start to feel like a monumental feat. Sleep gets interrupted by a busy mind. Life, after all, is not meant to be just marshmallows and trips to be beach – all of these issues are common for everyone at some point and at some level, so no one is alone in this. We have to honor our experience and not be so hard on ourselves and others – specially because it is a good thing to have hard days and some hard seasons (it sure makes what truly matters more clear to us). Meditation and time to feel what is going on can be a great asset for everyone, anywhere. No yoga pants needed, no sage needs to be burned, no special music, nothing – just the ability to sit with yourself and stay there for a moment. You, your beautiful mind, watching thoughts go by, breath by breath. Such a treat.

As Leaves Hit The Ground
It’s Fall, mellow and all.
I am prepared, I am, and as
The colors of nature dance,
I welcome change.
The hermit energies of winter
Melted with the blossoms of spring,
Followed by the heat of summer,
And all the sexiness it brings.
I am cooling down, now,
Enjoying yet another closure.
My heart moves with the hauling winds,
My breath stills as leaves hit the ground.
It’s Fall, leaves and all.
I am ready, I am, and as
Moments turn into memory,
I enter a new cycle.
…and then I take deep breath.
All The Way
“Another glorious day, the air as delicious to the lungs as nectar to the tongue.”
(John Muir)
Oh, glorious day
Another chance
Another way
Trying again
Without remorse
Trying again
Breathing it in
The newness
The freshness of
Trying again
Oh, glorious day
And to enjoy this new day…
A beautiful melody to touch your heart.
“All the Way” by MaMuse:
Stay high with life – and love who you are.
Movement
“All that is important is this one moment is movement. Make the moment important, vital, and worth living. Do not let it slip away unnoticed and unused.”
“Nothing is more revealing than movement.”(Martha Graham)
Life is constant movement
We breath in and out
We come and go
We fall, we get up
In a continuous flow…
Waking Up
“When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love—then make that day count!” ― Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free
