⁣
With one breathe she moves⁣
Arms rising, heart opening, exhaling from sky to earth⁣
Moving beyond the mind⁣
Her feet planted firm and supported on her mat⁣
Leaning forward, bending back⁣
The journey from one pose to the next⁣
Her body and breathe in sink⁣
Her body open, relishing in the love in this moment⁣
Gaps in the mind increasing ⁣
Love filling within her heart, embracing the journey—one pose to the next⁣
Fluid she flows⁣
In a moment the mind forecasts the end⁣
Irritation in the mind beckons⁣
Taken out of the present and fluid motions of her body for a moment ⁣
Her body tenses ⁣
A signal from her knowing, to breathe ⁣
Breath, deep and centred bringing her back, away from the anticipation of the end⁣
Back to the present, the journey unfolding on her mat, in her body⁣
A sigh of relief ⁣
The journey continues⁣
Unfolding effortlessly, as she continues to let go a little more⁣
A dance and flow between body, mind and heart ⁣💗image

The quiet space where she resides⁣
Awake, her body sits⁣
Spine erect, legs crossed⁣
A sense of feeling at home surrounds her ⁣
The world around her still asleep⁣
Dressed in her pyjamas, a dreamy like state she upholds ⁣
The dark, crisp morning air gently caressing her entire body⁣
Eyes relaxed and closed now, onwards she turns—her time begins⁣
Time for a state of being, where her mind feels free and at peace—the day young, wakefulness still a process gently playing out ⁣
Connected within, warmth created by her conscious breath ⁣
Breathing intentionally, controlled yet fluid—as her tummy and chest expands, taking in a new-ness with each round of breath⁣
Each breath, holding her grounded and safe⁣
Mind silenced but also welcomed to chatter if it so desires ⁣
Releasing breath slowly, her nervous system relaxed⁣
Held she is by the cushion beneath her ⁣
Held she is of herself—comforted, mind and body ⁣
Space between thought—gaps extending, presence expanding ⁣
This inner spaciousness, a divine experience, one that extends each time she holds herself steady, breath aiding this existence each and every time⁣
This place, this stillness, in this space, she is home⁣
No running, no pushing away, comfort and contentment in the being of presence, relishes. ✨✨ image 💗

Creating more compassion for oneself..for many this can be a stretch. But what if you could soften the edges a little, softening that harshness you so easily use in the hope it will create more motivation and action. What if next time you find something difficult, get something wrong or have no idea which path to take, instead of telling yourself all the reasons why you’re not capable, should know, should have got it right—perhaps try the opposite. Send yourself some compassion, know that it’s okay to get it ‘wrong’, it’s okay to not decide right now. It’s okay to need something explained to you again. When we soften a little and release harshness towards ourselves, our body and mind responds in the same light. Our beliefs begin to alter, allowing space for our stories and thoughts to lend towards more compassion for oneself in each experience of our life. Compassion will always lead you to a better feeling place. ✨💕✨

Seeing the shadow of myself- meeting what it presents me with. Oh how it makes me ponder...just when I think I’m done, and begin reaching out and stepping into the light, it somehow pokes and probes at me....it’s as if I’m above my physical self looking down and witnessing this part of me playing out. ⁣
This I know is when my light awakens me, again. The play and duality of light and dark the ebb and flow—through my lense, my perception, in the middle I stand, anchoring myself. Trying not to fall too far left or too far right. Allowing the sway, a natural flow with what presents itself...sitting with it, stillness, pondering and trusting that with the ever present impermanence will come a new shadow, will come a new light and will come a new awakening, a remembrance, a lesson...bringing me closer to the wholeness that is me, the true essence of who I am, not who I am only allowing myself to be. Permission to feel it all. ✨✨ image

How powerful they are and truth they can tell—an overwhelming sense of belief can sink deeply into our being as words reach places we may never have thought they could land. ⁣
⁣
Words makeup a large part of our overall well-being. The words we believe, words said to us by others, but even more so, words that we say to ourselves and take as truth. These words, aren’t to be taken lightly. These words, are words our body responds to. These can become a repetitive string of words coming together as a belief that either lifts us up and allows us to shine or tears us down, shrinking your beautiful essence. The power is in our hands, we can choose the words we wish to hear and believe. 💫

The decision made.⁣
A chance to explore.⁣
An endless expanse of new opportunity.⁣
With warmth and sun, my heart sings.⁣
Barefoot I walk— grounding into this ‘new-ness’— a wondering woman calling forth her inner strength.⁣
A belief within, unearthed and gradually rising.⁣
Although unpleasant, flutters chiming through my solar plexus.⁣
An empowered force, a constant reminder.⁣
A life filled with choice, no one way of navigating my way—except the calling, the whisper or the ping within my heart.⁣
We cannot know what lies ahead, we cannot control the call from our heart. ⁣
As my feet continue to ground in this new place, on my new path, I allow space for all the feels to be felt—for my inner-child to play on this new grass, under the warmth of the winter sun.⁣
For this journey is forever evolving, as I must too.⁣
With my feet solid on the ground and my heart held as my number 1– a force that only heats with live, tenderness and an unwavering guidance, today and for all my days to come. 💫💫

As she let’s go of what she is, of what is known.⁣
As she lets the outside world go—no longer allowing for dictation of what she can and can’t do, who she can and can’t be⁣.
Her body, lighter.⁣
Her mind, less cluttered.⁣
There she stands, a force beyond that which she allowed herself to believe she was unworthy of.⁣
Here she stands, within herself, resistance gradually fading away and an open embrace of self expanding.⁣
Her safety and security runs deep within.⁣
Her heart leading her to this safety, as she can now see that within, she has always been safe.⁣
Within she is empowered. ⁣
Within, all her wisdom, answers and love do reside.⁣
Within, a radiant light beams—pulsing through her physical body, a light of pure love flowing from within to that which is beyond her inner world. ⁣
When we come back home, a turning within—we allow our heart to guide us, no longer relying or seeking out others for the answers. Clarity resides within and our ability to see our own light, feel it and become deeply acquainted with it will only allow more love and light into our lives, along with a knowing that all is working out for us, even when we can’t see it.

You don’t have to push, lovely one⁣.
You can rest in the knowing—knowing you are worthy of that which pulls at your heart.⁣
The push is no longer needed, it never was.⁣
The push only kept you disconnected, tiresome and broken hearted.⁣
Trust, stillness and an undeniable belief that all is well, you are worthy, and no amount of pushing and force will ‘make up’ for that which you fear you are not...for you already are worthy, whole and your desires are yours right now, just as you are. 💫
