Summertime

-
I cannot begin to tell you how awesome this summer has been! I've moved into a freshly renovated home, created flower beds, decorated and organized like a mad woman, and took time to enjoy my friends and family. I am sorry I missed June's newsletter, but I have loved every moment of all my creating! I'm still teaching on Monday evenings at 5:30pm at Yoga Garden, Inc. in Battle Ground. I absolutely love seeing you all there! If you haven't made it to Yoga Garden yet, they have a fantastic special for new students, just $20 for 2 weeks of unlimited yoga! See ya on the mat! There are some of my friends and family who don't truly understand the meaning of manifestation. Rest assured, it's not complicated at all. It's not a yoga, hippy mom thing either. Everyone can practice the magic of manifestation.

Some simple tips are:
1. Visualize exactly what you'd like to FEEL like when you achieve your goal of job, car, money, relationship or whatever!
2. Affirm that you are worthy and deserving of all your dreams and desires. Write it down on a sticky note and put in on the bathroom mirror.
3. Use the energy of the moon, sun, stars, planets, etc. If you feel like the time is right to 'create', then it is. Do it!
4. Talk about your dreams and desires!! Let the whole Universe know!
5. Expect nothing but joy for what you already have. Humble gratitude for what is in our lives already creates a gateway for more.

Some may perform rituals, others meditate, some might just keep a journal, some pray, others may just think thoughts in their head. Whatever your strategy is, it is perfect for you at this time in your life. The beauty of my life right now is that there isn't ANYONE telling me what I'm doing is wrong. I choose to live a life abundant in everything I need, dreaming big, loving passionately and leaping faithfully into the adventures of tomorrow. I firmly believe with all my heart that all my dreams will come true.

In the middle

    I started writing this early April 2020, and called it "In the middle of a pandemic", but I had no idea what we were really in for. It's now the beginning of June, and we are still somewhere in the middle. Just floating around in a cloud of uncertainty. It is so weird...and kinda scary. In addition, we are demanding big changes in our thinking as a nation through protests. Racism has reared its ugly head. World wide, we are struggling. We've been thrusted into change, and yet so much more needs to happen.     In my small bubble of this world, I find myself struggling to keep a positive outlook at times. Fear settles in and camps out in the pit of my stomach. It is time for change. I can only speak to what I know, and that is minimal considering the vastness of change that I feel needs to happen to make this world a better place. A big question I ask myself, and see others asking, is "what can I do?". While I don't have the answer, I have some ideas.

Slowing down

I'm known for my funny saying in class...whether it's in school or on the mat, it seems as though there's always something ridiculous coming out of my mouth. A favorite of mine is, "Easy big dog", and the kids think that's hilarious. My, "The only way out is through" comment makes most roll their eyes at me. And of course, "Breathe" is probably in the top 3. Anyhow, since summer break is now in full swing, and I feel like I've recovered from a chaotic 2018-19 school year...my energy is restored and my creativity is in full swing. Yeah!! Here's the thing...one of my creative outlets, teaching yoga, takes planning. I was in such survival mode, that I did not plan ahead. So here I am, mid summer break, with no yoga classes/events on my calendar. This kinda makes me freak out. Then, I remember how crazy life has been, and tell myself what I'd tell any of you... "It's ok to do nothing, to relax." The Univer

Hello Friends! These blogs are written for the purpose to share my personal experiences that will hopefully entertain and inspire you. My intention is never to be mean, cast judgement or tell you you're doing something wrong. I've realized that I can get caught up in talking AT you versus WITH you. I need you all to know that I am WITH you, 100%. I am right there alongside you, in the muddy trenches of life doing my best to be a good human. A good mom, girlfriend, daughter, teacher...  Recently, I've noticed I get caught up in the daily grind, and I loose sight of all that is good. Overwhelming feelings of frustration about work cloud my excitement about having an amazing partner. Dealing with a pulled back muscle significantly stifles my laughter and joy. As of late, the only things on my mind are my back and my boss. What a big fat BUMMER!!  Here is where I can share an ah-ha moment. The moment when I realize that these energy vampires are stealing what I hav
