Today I am humbled by the increasing awareness that I am not enough for most people’s expectations. The more I have tried to fill or rebel these requirements laid upon me, the further away I’ve gotten from my true self that ultimately desires the same things. So in the end who have I really disappointed? Myself most definitely.

Slowing down today with the help of the Scorpio full moon and my body at it’s most yin. Taking time to breathe through this feeling I push aside so often. Read the rest of this entry »

You may be wondering why exactly I would revisit every one of my love affairs through an avenue so powerful as music. The truth is, I’m ready for ‘the one’. I’m ready to settle down, to stop searching and start being. I’m ready to give my heart completely, but I’m aware that there are pieces still left to heal. Until this is complete, I choose not to embark on another attempt at union with a whole heart until mine is whole as well. I’ve always rushed into relationships because of an underlying desperation to be loved. Now that I have truly found love within myself, my desire for a relationship is only to offer the gift of love I know now I already have. But I want to give love that is fresh and clean, not tainted with smudges of filth clinging to the hidden parts of my being. Read the rest of this entry »

I’ve always considered myself a very honest person. Though the more I get to know myself the more I realize I really haven’t been. At least not with things that really mattered. Like the things that my heart whispers to me. I’ve been too busy listening to the voice of the darkness within me. Mistaking it for truth. The part of me that leads me to believe I am not worthy or deserving of happiness. The part of me that has pushed every chance of me getting what I want away because I hid from myself what I really wanted. This lead to enormous amounts of pain, guilt, and depression. Which in turn lead to more decisions to bring to me only more of those things.

If thoughts become things, then it would make sense to focus on what you want instead of what you don’t want. What you have that you want to keep, and your blessings not your failures. Give it a try. See how you feel. I bet you will feel amazing!

Our thoughts affect each other. Notice how you feel about yourself when you are around certain people, chances are this is how they see you. Take a few moments to notice this today. Once you realize how other people see you affects how you feel about yourself, you will begin to see that how you see other people affects them as well. See the best in people. Help them to see the best in themselves, which in turn, will help them see the best in you.

Who isn’t tapped out? We work too hard. Play too hard. Drink WAY too much caffeine. Then what? Our Kidney energy gets depleted. Why is Kidney energy important? Well because basically, it is the source of our life energy. We get other energy from the foods we eat. But the Kidney energy can sort of be called the body’s life… Read the rest of this entry »

There’s something about you I cannot walk away from.

When there is nothing else left on my mind

you are still ever present.

You are like the rain that nourishes my soul

pouring your love upon my tired heart.

When I feel that I am lost… Read the rest of this entry »

Everyone on this planet seems to be in search of the same things. Happiness, true love, prosperity, and inner peace to name a few. Yet the majority of us only find them in fleeting moments at best. Even though most of us are failing miserably at creating the life we want, we continue to do things the same way over and over again. It has been said that this is the true definition of insanity. Doing the same thing expecting different results. You’ve heard that saying I’m sure. If that is the case, then we must all be insane. I know I have been, and still am a majority of the time…

I realize that most people get things half right. They cannot possibly get it all right because they are looking for the ego mind to bring to light what it cannot. The duality. The balance. The perfect mixture between option A and option B. True alignment. Anyone who does yoga knows, if you do not have proper alignment, you have no balance. If there is ever a question between actions and thoughts, they are either the wrong action or… Read the rest of this entry »
