Good News!... You are perfect!

You are perfect! You were born perfect and still are perfect. You just have a busy mind that likes to create stories to take you away from your perfection. We all come from God which is the infinite source of love. Love is our essence, it is our core. We are born as pure love. As we grow up we get a lot of things stuck to our little love beings and then as grown ups all we are trying to do is heal, recover and move on so that we can get back to that vague memory of what it was like before our story started. 


 Guru Dev Singh asked yesterday in class why we do yoga? Every one had answers like heal, and overcome the past... He laughed, NO! We do yoga to shut our minds up for long enough to see our own perfection. It is not about creating the person you want to be it is about realizing you are already it. Let go of the story, live form this day forth and you will be who you want to be, no healing necessary. We like to make things so complected but the truth is they are not.
Stop creating complicated questions and your life will become simple. Lets live LIGHT today, leave the baggage at the bus stop.  For this next week as part of my challenge i am going to drop the story. I am doing all this yoga not to over come anything but to simply remember that i already am all that i want to be. Silencing the mind is the key.

Winged Heart- Journey on my 40 challenge.

 I just started a 40 day yoga challenge. The last month has been a roller coster of emotions and as fun, hard, and big as it has been i am ready to get off the ride now... So i have come too, when in doubt do a shit load of yoga:)
 One of the things that i have been working on relates to Kahilil Girbran's words... "Waking with a winged heart and giving thanks for another day of loving". I am trying to truly understand what it means when i say i love someone. It is easy to for me to say I love you, and i do believe i truly mean it, but i also believe that we do not know how authentic our love is until it is tested. I want to love everyone but i also want to trust that when i say i love you it runs to the essence of the meaning, which for me is "Love that turns to sorrow of hate is not love".
For me becoming a self witness is the key to understanding myself and why i do things the way i do. It is like being an ostrich with you head in the sand when you do not have a self witness, only your not hiding from the world your hiding from yourself. I am pulling my head out of the sand!

So 40 day yoga challenge bring it!  I am going to created the space for my observer to watch the show, what comes up, what goes down and how can i get back to the most authentic space of LOVE that exists within me.

I am going to blog along the way so if you would like to join me on this journey please do.

Love and Light! XOXOX
