Falling Back in Line

October 31, 2024October 31, 2024 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

Hè, Yogi!

I have been enjoying this fall weather! It’s been all over the place though! Now that the wind died down, I feel myself settle into planning a big adventure for me. Not actually going on a trip but to step out of my way of blocking my personal growth. I plan on working on those goals today because there will be a lot. I seem to sit on my hands a lot and let time get in between me and my goals. I have business goals, personal goals, community goals, financial goals, and we have a few holidays sprinkled in there. I must get a schedule locked in to help balance my excess vata, or maybe just redirect it. I will be excited to share as I get my life in order and start falling back in line.

Self-Reflection:

I have been taking the time to reflect on my desires and needs. Where do I want to be as a 43 year old woman? What do I want to embody? I feel I can go any direction in life. I am at a crossroads and there are directions that do not make sense. I feel encapsulated by all the different versions of myself I have lived so far. Which version do I want to nourish? I have so much more knowledge of myself than I ever have and this is the best time to get real clear on who I am. Who I want to be. How I want to show the world the new me when I re-emerge. Life is about to get real. Real fucking fabulous!

Goal-Setting:

I am great at planning. I am not so great at keeping track of who, what, when. I plan on creating short and long term goals using the SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-bound), which will help me create a clearer path. I want to be so crystal clear and reasonable. I mean losing 1 pound per week is more feasible than 15. That way I can incorporate bigger goals on my long term dreams. Easier said than done? I agree! That’s why I plan on incorporating the next step.

I had to burn past regrets I was so I can re-emerge💕

Celebrate Progress:

I love to plan a big party! With that being said, I am very capable of taking time to acknowledge my achievements, no matter how small! Celebrating milestones will boost my motivation and confidence and reinforce positive habits of being kind to myself. I’m not planning on throwing a big, expensive party every time due to financial goals, but I will treat myself to a moonlit walk, a warm bath with bubbles, a 20 min face massage taking time to pay close attention to my movements, I will connect with myself by journaling. I love celebrating ME! I’m a pretty big deal to myself.

Positive Affirmations:

I love to use positive affirmations to repeat to myself multiple times in the mirror. I even make myself cry sometimes by hearing the kind words. It is magic to be kind to myself. When I am disappointed in myself, I disappear from acknowledgment. I have found that setbacks are a part of the growth process but instead of seeing the negative and seeing failure, I can see growth. I found out that way doesn’t work and will not keep going anymore.

Community:

One cannot do it all alone. Do you believe that? I truly do believe that. I know I need people around me that support me and that I can support. I want to surround myself with people that inspire me. I want to be on the path to be the best version of myself and I believe I attract those people. I need them and they need me. Community equals support and love.

The manifestation period is coming with the new moon tomorrow. Regain your traction. We got this🥰

I plan on sharing my next 30 days. I am excited to embark on such a spiritual journey to unknown territory. Who will I be when I am 100% focused? I cannot wait to see what doors open and how my life will be in 30 days….

Stay tuned!

Namaste!

Falling For Meditation

September 12, 2024September 12, 2024 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

Hi, yogi!

As the vibrant hues of summer gradually fade, the cool nights of fall usher in a season of reflection and renewal. The air becomes crisp, carrying with it the earthy scents of fallen leaves and the promise of winter’s approach. It’s during these serene evenings that many find themselves yearning for a moment of pause, a chance to digest not just the remnants of summer fun but also the experiences that have shaped their lives.

Summer brings an abundance of activity, filled with laughter, adventures, and a whirlwind of social gatherings. From lake outings to late-night barbecues, the season is a tapestry of joyful moments. However, as the days grow shorter and the nights cooler, there’s an inherent call to slow down and internalize those experiences. This is where meditation can play a transformative role.

My loving, intentional time to be with my thoughts💞

Meditation offers a sanctuary amid the hustle and bustle of life. It invites us to sit with our thoughts and emotions, allowing us to process the joys and lessons summer has imparted. As the world outside shifts into a calmer rhythm, meditation encourages a similar stillness within. The act of focusing on the breath or visualizing the changing leaves can ground us, helping to clear the mental clutter accumulated during the frenetic pace of summer.

Moreover, fall is a time of transition, not just in nature but in our personal lives as well. Just as trees shed their leaves, we too can let go of what no longer serves us. Meditation fosters this release, promoting a sense of peace as we acknowledge our experiences and intentions moving forward. It creates a space for gratitude, allowing us to appreciate the warmth of summer while embracing the beauty of change.

As the nights grow colder, wrapping ourselves in a cozy blanket and finding a quiet spot becomes an inviting ritual. With each inhale, we can draw in the crisp air, and with each exhale, we can release the remnants of summer’s heat, creating balance within. In this way, meditation helps us digest not only the fun we had but also the emotions tied to it—joy, nostalgia, and perhaps a hint of melancholy.

In conclusion, the cooler nights of fall provide an ideal backdrop for introspection. By engaging in meditation, we can harmonize our experiences, allowing the vibrancy of summer to settle into a deeper understanding of ourselves. As we embrace the change of seasons, let us also embrace the opportunity for inner growth, finding solace in the quiet moments that autumn brings.

Namastè!

Life Update

November 4, 2023November 4, 2023 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

He, friend!

It’s been a lot these past few months. I lost my sweet Alex the day after my last post. I lost a whole best friend that day, and it tore open all my wounds. I felt so lost and hurt that she died alone. I never thought it would get better. Grief is a bitch! You never know how it will hurt until you are there. I decided to get a new dog and I really feel Alex sent me that message to my brain right after she died. I cried all the time for the first few days with my new dog, Max. I bet he was so confused to the emotions I carried. Plus, he was so new to me. He keeps me busy, and I love him so much! I love learning how our relationship grows, together, as a new family.

I lost my job and still haven’t found a new one, but I am keeping myself so busy. I am building a new herbal adaptogenic drink business from the ground up. I have no idea what I am doing, but I am going to try. I am really enjoying this process. It is making me vulnerable, but I am building new relationships and getting excellent advice from the messages that visit me. I have reached out to my business friends to get some answers to my worries, and everyone says, “Just do it!” I have an army of support and I cannot believe that this former alcoholic, lost to the bottle, has people rooting me on. I really love, love, love my friends and family! Theeee best!

Does anybody else bathe their dogs in the sink? He’s so cute🤩

I do not have all the answers, and I have been straying from my usual grounding exercises, like yoga and meditating. I have been bringing back my morning saging and meditation because I find myself floating around like a leaf with no purpose! For real! I brought myself back with my own knowledge about me and found myself way ahead this week than I was last week! It is mind-blowing why I stray from it. I mean, quieting my brain when I have a million and one things to get done? No way! But, yes way is the WAY!! I am shouting from the top of my meditating yoga mouth. LOL!

This guy keeps me on my toes!! Maximilian💝

My body craves movement every day. If I ignore it, I get pretty stiff and way sorer than my heaviest lifting day. I find myself spending at least 100 steps to work out the kink in my right knee. My back takes some side to side and front to back stretches and hopefully, me and my back are on the same network, and I do not end up with another ailment from stretching the wrong way😂 That is why I am working on getting to yoga class. I find a lot of reasons why I can not get up and go….like, right now but “I’m writing this blog.” It is on my radar and may make an entrance next week or even tomorrow. All I need is the seed and the nurturing I give takes care of my growing 🙂 I am in seed stage after being hacked up from a weed whacker, I will get back to me soon enough.

I enjoy planning future fun with my non-furry friends. I just had a friend come over and organize my pantry last week. She is beginning her business adventure too, so we have so much to learn from each other and she has been my best friend since 9! I have a pottery painting date and lunch dates over the next few weeks, and I enjoy spending time creating relationships and trust. I love learning from my friends and getting different perspectives. Plus, we are getting into a “giving” season, so people are just seasonally very nice. Take advantage! Make a new friend, and who knows, they may just be what you need in this crazy place called LIFE!

I am finding my path in the dark. I was intimidated to act on my dreams and now I am living my dreams. I have freedom and space and that is the recipe I needed to come out of my shell. I guess where this road leads, I have no idea. I do know I want to keep going because this might just be the road that will bring me to my next chapter. I also found out I am going to be a grandma! Not just once…but twice:)

Wanishi! (Thank you)

All pictures are a tribute to my furry friends that impact my life daily💝

A Little Bit of Love Goes a Long Way

December 14, 2022December 14, 2022 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

Hi, friends!

I have been soaking in all the Christmas spirit. I love this time of year for the kindness people exude and carry love to those in need. Oh, why can’t we love every day? This is a great reminder to put in your daily love for yourself as well. 5, 10, 15, 20? What’s your numbered threshold? What will you allow as adequate time to nourish and refuel on love?

My discovery of my needs for the day typically begins with my self-reiki practice. I get my mind and body in tune and I proceed to meditate. Meditation is my love language. Sometimes, I think of the things that bring me joy and love and my brain tingles with the memories. Once, I know my day’s intentions it’s only 5:30 am. So many hours to go!

I completed my 1st full moon ceremony under the clouds but the moon was still out in the western sky. Full moon in Gemini.

I recently went to visit relatives in Oklahoma. I met with my Auntie who told stories for 3 hours! I wish I recorded her but these stories were so amazing I wrote them down off memory. I love, love discovering my family roots. As we are coming to the winter solstice, in Lenapè ways we told stories. I’m planning on getting some stories ready and getting my family together to listen. I hope they share as well.

Uncle Eddie’s home on wheels in Oklahoma😍

I think just last year, I was shopping, shopping, shopping. My love showed up as a gift or cash. That was exhausting showing up at stores, waiting in long lines, waiting for the mail, and money spent for all the wrong reasons. I was learning. I did what my parents did. I learn from sight and seeing others do what they do. I don’t want my Christmas nights consumed by shopping and leave me entering 2023 in debt. My love and attention to myself taught me my faults and if I want to be better, I better tend to the issues. I love my family and I give great gifts but I’m no longer going to stress about how much I need to spend to care.

Eating seasonal foods boost me up with nutrients and the strength to deal with late fall weather💪🏾 I made a butternut coconut curry soup & roasted beet soup😍

I find joy in my nights when I can read my books. Right now I’m reading “Science of Yoga” by Ann Swanson & “Drink?” by Professor David Nutt. These books are captivating and I’m learning so much. I enjoy learning how good yoga is for my body and what happens in each pose. This information is life changing! Plus, “Drink?” exposes what alcohol does to your body and how it will change your life, if you let it. Scary stuff.

I hope you find joy in the season of greetings! Or even better, that you find your joy amongst the busiest of seasons. Breathe and find that a little bit of love goes a long way!

Namastè 🙏🏽

Monday Mindset

December 12, 2022December 12, 2022 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

Happy Monday!

Me and my doggies ventured out in the cold this morning.

I have been feeling a bit lost in the huge amount of space I created in my life. I now have time to catch up on the library books I borrowed, focus on my blog, continue my herbal studies, focus on my yoga spiritual practice, and go deeper into my meditations. I intend to focus, focus, focus. So far, it’s been about 40% focus. I’m allowed downtime but I feel like it’s not helping me to be productive. I tend to put things that are out of my control on my scope and obsess over them. I’m really curious why this is my focus and not on a cure. Here, I present my Monday mindset.

My Sunday night walks manifest my Mondays💝

Monday is the beginning of the week for most of us. If we can’t figure it out by Monday there’s always next Monday, right? LOL! I hate to admit I do this, especially when it comes to working out. I have come to respect Mondays which I’m sure comes from my amazing boss who doesn’t give me the Sunday scaries. (“Sunday scaries” come from stress on Sunday night because Monday is on the horizon and with that comes all the shit no one wants to deal with but has to.) I also get to set a precedence for the whole week! How do I want to represent myself this week? What meetings, yoga classes, events, and self-care time do I need to add to my calendar and which nights do I need to plan on a crock pot meal? I get to manifest this. I’m pretty powerful because I chose my day, my life. That’s amazing freedom.

So, I have a lot of meetings each week and I look forward to most of them. If not, why are they on my calendar? I may need to reassess if my interests are changing, or do I need to be challenged more? I find Sundays as my day to get things written down, groceries bought, calendars updated, lunch money handed out, and check in on my priorities. I find my Sunday planning is pretty important for my Monday so I’ll share more next week!

As far as my mindset, I really enjoy the things on my calendar. My mindset manifests from the joys in my life. I really found a healthy balance and experience pleasure everyday. Last year on this day, my life was chaotic and too many unknowns. I couldn’t wait to be in this moment today, safe and sound. Life is a trip and even the bad things deserve a mention because it got me to the good things✌🏽 I will never take life for granted and I feel like the ripples my life set are already manifesting. I just need to be patient. For now, I’ll be keeping my healthy mindset and understand nothing outside myself makes me love myself. Change your mindset, change your view💝

Namastè 🙏🏽

Who’s In Control of This Ship?

November 15, 2022December 12, 2022 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / 2 Comments

Happy Tuesday!

I am still a toe into this week. I don’t feel I’m in complete control yet. I’m wavering on a lot of choppy waters in my mind. I’m unsure of myself and my direction. Have you ever felt out of sync? I’m questioning a lot from my thoughts that came up Sunday and Monday to help guide me to my next adventure, my next a-ha moment. I guess, this is a part of my growing process and I must endure the yawns too. It sure beats chaos!

The moon showing me how to make way in the cold, dark, autumn nights

I know I came so far from who I once was. I like the fast trajectory. Who doesn’t? I tend to obsess over something until it no longer serves me. I’ve been researching my family tree and found so many facts I never knew. I talk to my dad more about the past. I found myself spending hours on ancestry.com. Now, I’m still processing all I found and what to do with it now. I also sent off my saliva to be studied to tell me all about my DNA. I can’t wait for those results and I also did traits.

This is Chief Jack Harry, my 3rd great- grandpa. I have 4 Chief grandpas so far in my research. This grandpa died of the flu in Mexico while on business. He was 52.

I find a lot of joy in researching who I come from. It brought tears, anger, sadness, love, hope, fear, and laughter. My family isn’t perfect but they’re mine. Without them, there’s no me. None of my babies. I saw so many censuses with my family and boarding school rosters with my grandmas and grandpas names. I’m only 2nd generation out of boarding schools so there was a lot of generational trauma I’ve been working through, as one could guess. When you find out who you are and where you come from no one can take that from you. That’s your truth.

I have been learning a lot about my gut biome. I never thought to research all of these researched and trademarked bacteria but I want to know what I’m putting into my body.

Another fun fact, is I’ve been taking my health seriously. Aging doesn’t have to be bad or deterioration of your body and mind. I’m embracing all of me. I’m not perfect but I’m optimizing my health one day at a time. I started taking a probiotic. It’s day 5 and no difference yet but I’m still trucking along! I’d like to be more consistent in eating seasonal fruits and veggies. My family only likes 3 or 4 veggies, and yes, they count potatoes. I need to get this fixed. I’m finding myself eating what I cook for my family and not what I need.

I really miss my in-person yoga class. I’m planning on attending today and getting back to my original mission statement. Keeping me happy, safe, and loved. “But a yogi never forgets that health must begin with the body. Your body is the child of the soul. You must nourish and train your child. Physical health is not a commodity to be bargained for. Nor can it be swallowed in the form of drugs and pills. It has to be earned through sweat.” B.K.S. Iyengar.

Namastè 🙏🏽

Falling Back in Love with Meditation

November 9, 2022December 12, 2022 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

Happy humpity-hump day! A.K.A. Wednesday!

I have been swaying in the autumn wind. No purpose at all, just the intent to survive. I, once again, found myself stuck. I know meditation grounds me when I’m floating in the unknown. I get bored and feel suffocated when I’m idling for too long with no purpose. I must move out of this mindset and clean house. I’ll show you how I fall (back) in love with meditation.

First things first, I have many different altercations with people in a day, I express and manifest many different emotions, and I just keep moving along. When do I address my day? Well, when I journal and meditate. For me, this is my daily prescription. Just like our brown pill bottle prescription, we forget to take our prescribed medication, and if we do it enough, we lose the benefits of the prescription. I was feeling the strain. I’m talking weeks off. I needed my love back in my life.

I will meditate by the water to get immediate benefits. I instantly fill up from my pranabath.

All I have to do is find a quiet place where I’ll be undisturbed. I’ll get myself settled, comfortable, and close my eyes. Why is this such a hard task? My mindset has been comforted by my lies. I am not ok skipping my meditation. I know this as fact, I need to curb my beliefs away from believing I can live without meditation. Before I get back into my bed or attempt to conquer my day, I require an investigation in my head. Where am I at with my thoughts? I must sit, Gyan Mudra, and Ommmm!

So, what happens when I meditate? First, I have to take in my environment with sight. Second, I breathe in deep and take in my environment through smell. Third, I’ll listen. I need to know I’m safe and will be uninterrupted. I’ll sit cross-legged on a blanket or bolster, I’ll sit on the ground, or just today I sat on a long blade of a rock softened with my yoga mat. I will always be mindful of my comfort. I truly want to be uninterrupted. I’ll gently close my eyes and find fluidity of my thoughts. My intent is to clean. I acknowledge every thought and may categorize each one in my head to gently clear out of my mind. In order to clear, I must be mindful of the depth of thought each situation requires. If something is triggering then I’ll journal about it after. I will figure it out, if not by myself, I will address it with my therapist, sponsor, friends or family.

When I find my head clear I sit. Empty headed. Breathing, barely. I feel enlightened. This is where it’s at. Nothing replaces this euphoria. Nothing beats this human experience. Better yet, it’s free! When I’m done rejuvenating my spirit I will journal my experience. I have to tell someone right? I just hope this sparks an idea to incorporate this very old ancient practice in your life or to bring it back. See what it can do for you. I mean don’t just take my word for it. This is something good for me. This I know💖

Namastè 🙏🏽

Fall Edition: Yogi morning routine for self-empowerment💖

October 9, 2022December 12, 2022 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

Hi, yogi friend!

I am thrilled to share my Fall morning routine. It will always include my well-rehearsed “start your day right” routine. This is my best chance at grabbing control of my day before someone or something else does. This will prove to you how much control you truly have over you, yourself, and YOU!!

First things first, I will eliminate, by the way, Triphala works wonders if you need help to get that started. Don’t continue carrying yesterday’s shit into today! Then, I brush, floss, and scrape my tongue. Next, I wash my face and apply my homemade oil concoction and will begin a quick Gua Sha session. I will dry brush my whole body with long strokes creating movement towards my heart. I will finish with my oil and pay attention to my body. Lots of long strokes and circle rubs on the joints. This all can take 15 – 20 minutes but so very worth it!

Nature shows is resiliency to exist in every season well🥰

Now, I can begin my Reiki session and I just bought a new healing bowl. It has seven metals to represent the seven planets. It has nine chakra signs and it’s one of a kind…literally. These healing bowls are made by hand in Nepal. I absolutely love how low the sound is and the vibration it sends to my body is so amazing! I show it off to all my visitors and I cannot wait to learn our powers together! I am in awe with this new partnership.

After, Reiki I need to move. I will begin my yoga session for 30 – 60 minutes depending on my time constraints. This has been a curious thought to begin early morning walking or even a weightlifting session. We’ll see how this manifest as we carry on through the season. I know my body well and movement first thing is very important to me.

By now, it’s time to wrap up my self-love and self-intention morning to take a shower and rinse off the oil. I try to end my shower with the last minute being COLD! It’s meant to increase endorphins and increase blood flow. There a so many more benefits but I just do it because it makes me feel good and increases my focus every day. Win!

After I dress, I get in a meditation. Lately, I love a great prana bath in nature and a meditation while the sun rises. This is the best self-love I can present myself. This is my RX. I will also journal to wrap up my ah-mazing morning love fest.

I got to journal next to this beautiful doe❤

I will get my breakfast ready which has been cold cereal or yummy stewed apples lately. I also make myself my yummy chai cacao with Brahim/Gotu Kola and Moringa powder. These help me with my focus concentration. Another win! I typically begin work.

I hope this inspires you to start or tweak your morning routine to celebrate YOU! Let’s get in a mindset to get up early and care for ourselves before we have to present to the world. I love a good love fest especially in the morning!

Namastè 🙏🏽

How late is too late?

September 23, 2022December 12, 2022 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

Hi, yogi friend!

I write this as a reflection on my early morning faux pas. Being late. First off, I stayed in bed and began to get caught up on Ayurveda class and recipes. I then get a reminder that I have yoga class in 10 min. I hopped up, showered, abhyonga, brushed my teeth, scraped my tongue (so white😮‍💨), Nettie pot, and oiled my sinuses. It’s 5:36. By the time I get there it would be 5:45. I know the instructor wouldn’t mind at all but I feel defeated. For real, how late is it obnoxious?

Me patiently awaiting the sun and all the warmth.

I know I’ve said this before but I need space. This is why my time management is off. I need to be allowed more wiggle room. I’m a free spirit and now I feel trapped. I set this crazy, scheduled mindset up to protect myself. I needed a full day all the time to protect me from going back to old habits. I am more aware and honed in on stress in my body now that I cut out the alcohol. I don’t have anywhere to run and hide. I. Feel. It. All. I am late to this game by 4 weeks. Are you late? Is it just me?

Yesterday, was pretty chilly. 2nd day of fall right on time🕒🌬🍂

I don’t like to be known as the late one or undependable. But I am. Why do these labels I named irritate me? This cannot be my demise. I did so much work in the past year that this is what does me in? Hell no! I forget. I have a team of people rooting for me and helping me build my life back to a healthy existence. My yoga teacher told me that we need to keep our tools in our pocket. What do I know to help me alleviate the pain of stress? I meditate.

My pranabath followed by a deliciously, nourishing meditation💖

I meditate most days. I crave it. It doesn’t have to be the drawn out drive to a lake or nature. It can be your backyard, livingroom, bedroom, bathroom, closet, wherever you can sit or lay, you can meditate. There is something about being in nature though. Everything about it I absolutely adore. I absorb prana sounds, smells, sight, taste of the new fall coolness, earth alive on my bum by the water. This is our new RX. I bet your doctor never prescribed this free thought.

As I create more space on my calendar I cannot forget my home and car. What am I holding onto? I have lots of hidden corners in my home and I know a good purge is coming and it’ll feel so nourishing! I can’t wait to share that cause just the idea has me psyched! I feel a huge weight lifting. A shift. This should help me get a clearer head as well. Crazy, right? Or no?

My favorite beet and lentil soup to bring in fall🌻

I don’t mean this as a bash session on myself. Awareness is key and a 1st step. I met with my Ayurveydic practitioner and he told me I’m Pitta Kapha which I now have a clearer understanding on my doshas to begin healing. It was a joy to learn all about me and be given a prescription to live again and it’s unlike any prescription you’ve been given! I’ll share more on my next blog!

Namastè 🙏🏽

Sit, listen, learn💝

September 14, 2022December 12, 2022 / Self-Diagnosed Yogi / Leave a comment

Hi, yogi friend!!

I have been learning so much about myself this week and it’s only Wednesday! Whew! I am exhausted! I feel the new season whirling its way into existence. I feel you, fall season. I’m ready to fall back into your coziness and slowwww down. Yawn… yup, my favorite time. I will also cook me some kitchari for next week. I’ll probably eat it just for lunch and dinner since my tummy isn’t acting hungry till 10 am – noonish.

That captivating fall weather rolling in cool and foggy🍂

My lower back always gets me this time of year. It’s been a few years but it’s back. Ouch. I performed Reiki on it this morning and it’s still alive and well. I’m thinking it’s from stress. I believe I’m usually stressed this time of year. Work life is stressful. I need to unwind and the only way is to go camping. 💖 I will be very intentional to schedule me time to just do me. I need to be able to tend to myself however I need at that moment. I will meditate on that this morning. My intention is to give myself more personal attention doing what I love.

My daughter has an apple tree so I made cider in the crockpot!🍅🍏

I haven’t been loving cooking and that is my pastime favorite. I had so many get-togethers but I am burnt out. I think when I end my season at the farmers market it will open me up for more time. Plus, it’s fall season coming and historically, I stay home more and study up. I like to keep busy for the most part but I am more mindful, I could say “stay home busy”.

I had a blockage of my throat chakra and I knew it because I couldn’t communicate. No one understood me and that hindered me from wanting to advocate properly for myself. I think I was so off balance for years! I’m so surprised how far I got career wise with this blocked. I feel it wide open. I can speak and I speak truthful. I can advocate for myself and respect you at the same time. This is everything to me. Sometimes we don’t think or we become so self absorbed that we cannot see our audience. Just mindful thinking. Take your time, what’s your rush?

I am off to meditate and get my mind right. This is my only time to search within for answers, wisdom, and guidance. I also look for my Crane/Herron. I’m just not sure what it is. Or maybe both live out here! Whatever you do in your 24 hours, be more mindful to sit, listen, and learn. It pays off in every part of your being to never stop learning.

Namastè 🙏🏽
