Less Workout and More Quiet Conversations With Yoga

Our busy lives don't give us time to have conversations with ourselves, let alone check in with our bodies, our hearts, our souls. Instead, our minds race a thousand miles an hour and quieting that chatter--not completely--but bringing us into the moment can be difficult. There are many ways to fost

"The Meta-Model patterns and the Away From/Toward Motivation Meta-Program can be helpful tools, but attachment to any one model or framework can lead to suffering and limited understanding. Seek inner wisdom and cultivate compassion to find true freedom and enlightenment." #Buddha #InnerWisdom #Compassion #Enlightenment

It's been welling up over recent months that I may need to focus my energy on a mature demographic.

I'm thinking 52+ (52 being a life power number...more on that in another space).

My observation has been the vast majority of energy healers' and spiritual growth guides' vibe and presentation leans heavily into a sparkly, rainbowy sensibility. Nothing wrong with this! Just speaking for myself that vibe doesn't resonate for me.

Our soul's healing journey is serious frickin business. I see a LOT of people for many reasons don't look much at this dimension of self development.... busy with career and family, discouraged by taboos we're raised with.

You can absolutely take the path of ignoring your inner healing journey and deal with it (or not) in another life. OR you can dive in here!

Thoughts? Focus my message and my work on 52+?

How's this sounds to you?

Friends,

My theme for #meditationpractice in January is "step away from conflict."

I imagine how for some hearing this activates consternation, as if this means we allow oppression, corruption, and suffering to go unchallenged.

Indeed these spaces of limited characters cannot capture the nuance of the intention "step away from conflict."

If we each pause before decrying: What wisdom does it hold for us at this time?

Join me!

Lovelies,

There is no right way to be, no right place to be, no right words to say, no right feelings to hold

today.

Be as you may, where you may,
express what you may, experience what you may

today.

This day is one more day like any other,
an equal opportunity for experiencing
the full spectrum of the human condition.

There is no right, there is only real.

Lovelies, the wonderfully sturdy, practical, responsible Seagoat Capricorn is in hyper-drive on this day of a #NewMoon, amplified by Mercury, Venus, Pluto and the Sun!

A fortuitous time to make final prep for holiday gatherings and even to plot a bit for the work ahead in the new year...

Just be sure not to overdo it today and tomorrow OK? Remember Joy, let yourself laugh and sparkle too!

#Clarity will come... not with force of thought, but with ease of embodiment. Let it in!

You don't need to have it all figured out, as you #pivot in your #career.

You DO need to make persistent and concerted moves. Then, pay attention!

As you take those small moves, people will come to you with ideas.

Your body and #InnerWisdom will alert you to how it feels to make decisive moves toward your #goals.

Go for a walk and feel the feels...

Do you have any photos from your wanderings?

This is by way of #introduction. I also help #academics #LeavingAcademia to recover, & find #compassion for themselves so they can enter #altAc work with #boundaries intact, less #stress & more #confidence. I'm a #coach.

My PhD is in Applied #psychology. I've worked a lot w/ Black-led #NonProfit #NGO #thirdSector orgs to create system changes. Clinical psych is mainly white middle-class women oriented and many #Black #BIPOC /asylum seekers won't get mental health help. We need to look at #music, #dance, #movement #innerWisdom as a way to promote #mentalHealth. I try to play matchmaker, finding #grants but I'd like to see #funders devote #funding to #innovative & #inclusive work
