Last year I ran the Brooklyn half marathon with my husband and felt so accomplished that I took a break from running regularly for about a year. I believe that life has ebbs and flows and you can't do everything all the time. I spent more time sitting, studying, and writing and less time moving around on my feet.
More times than not, my birthday falls on Mother's Day and this year I am celebrating 31 beautiful years of life, love, and learning! That being said, this newsletter is useful for everyone, but dedicated to all the mothers out there for being amazing! So, what do moms do a lot whether they are staying at home or in the office?
I was talking to my mother the other day and she was telling me all about how she walks on her lunch hour at work and then again at night with my father before dinner. She mentioned that when she walks at work, she goes up the stairs, down the hallway and then up to the next floor until 30 minutes have passed.
Now that Spring has officially sprung, I took the time to go through my closets and let go of things that I haven't used in a while or things that have seen better days. I filled up three large shopping bags to donate later that week.
There is no better time than the present to find or reconnect with your spiritual self! Some find peace in the words of others, but I have never been one to have a quote or passage that I turn to when times get rough. I find more tangibility in taking a yoga class or meditating to get in touch with my higher self.
The sun is shining and as soon as mother nature decides to stop being a woman and make up her mind, I'm sure the weather will follow! In the 5th chakra we purified our body through sound. Today our journey continues on the path of clarity to seek the light of consciousness.
With all this cold weather, I have been staying inside more and finding warmth in comfort food that is delivered to my door. In winter, (especially the bitter end of winter) it is more supportive to be understanding of what your body is asking of you as opposed to constantly pushing yourself to fulfill social obligations and such.
I just love that I didn't have an agenda or plan for teaching you about the chakras, but they are matching up beautifully with the world around us! On that note, I am sending you lots of love and gratitude for allowing me to help you on your journey to becoming pain-free and learning from our experiences together.
