A stomach bug came to visit my daughter this weekend. I must say it has to be one of the worst normal things you have to deal with as a parent. For me it seems ridiculously hard to deal with because I used to have emetophobia really bad until I ended up with hyperemesis during pregnancy. It's not completely gone though so my level of anxiety and stress has been excessive and I've almost made myself sick from stress alone.
I tend to hate that about myself but I'm learning that I need to deal with that anxiety instead of trying to get rid of it. Anxiety is just a part of my life and I need to accept it but that doesn't mean I have to let it control me. I can step back, acknowledge my anxiety, and talk myself through it. I've found it helps to answer the "What if...?" questions. Usually it's not a big deal and I don't know if something is going to happen or not so I should just stop killing the peace I could have and then deal with any situation that does come up when it happens. I can't do anything right now by worrying about possibilities and I just need to let it go. Sure it's easier said than done, but I have to try.

Lying on a bed of nails, a circus sideshow act to impress the audience into thinking that the person has a superhuman ability to ignore pain.
Lying on a bed of nails doesn't really hurt, it's all about pressure. One nail sticking out of the ground that meets your foot has a small enough surface so that the force of your foot coming down on it can pierce the skin, a bed of nails changes that equation. Hundreds of nails balance the pressure and support the weight of your body. Your body doesn't exert enough pressure on any one nail for it to break the skin.
The bed of nails has been used by Indian mystics for centuries in the practice of healing and meditation and it's been re-invented as an acupressure mat. Giving us a whole range of benefits, from tackling insomnia and easing stress to alleviating arthritic aches and reducing the appearance of cellulite (the spikes help the body rid itself of toxins and increase blood flow, to assist the breakdown of stubborn fat groupings). It's also brilliant for relieving chronic neck and back pain.
I'm not going to lie: When you first lie down on a mat a rush of sensation goes through your body. For the first minute or two, you want to get off — but if you just breathe through it, your body's natural oxytocin (a pain blocker) will start flowing and then your endorphins kick in, leading to a real sense of relaxation and positive feelings. If you keep lying on the mat and breathing deeply, you will walk away after 10 minutes or so feeling lighter and happier! Intrigued? Try it yourself at our new acu yoga course, just one space left!

more than ever, i am grateful to have my closest loves understand and support my happiness. when i have kiddos of my own, i pray that i am able to do the same having lived through some of life’s biggest lessons. in all honesty, it has taken me looking at my own insecurities and anxiety to see outside of my bs that others struggle, too. are they doing the best they can? absolutely. it’s funny how things play out sometimes. i am proud where i stand knowing the only way to go is up. progress, keep your cool, own what’s yours and the rest?

(Swipe for more!) For the second portion of the evening, we invited our yogis to participate in a cleansing exercise. We asked them to write down one thing that is no longer serving them, something that they do not wish to carry over into the new season, and throw it into the fire. Then we enjoyed an all-vegan potluck picnic to celebrate!

Don’t allow guilt to bind you to your past... let it all go. Learn from your mistakes and do better with the knowledge you have gained!

I know, easier said than done. But people, letting go of offenses and bitterness about things that happened to you years ago or even just this morning, sets YOU free! It’s your key to your own freedom and joy! Offense is such a joy robber. A life-destroyer. .
Years ago, my worst fear happened to me...I was kidnapped while running, thrown into the trunk of a car, and later brutally raped. I thought for SURE I was going to be killed. God was with me and saved my life...on so many levels. 🙌🏻
.
You guys, it’s way too long and too amazing of a story to do it justice in one post on social media. Just know, when Jesus saved me, he also began to teach me how to forgive with his love and mercy, with HIS strength and not my own. .
That journey and the powerful testimony that has come out of it, has impacted people worldwide. And 10s of 1000s of people have been saved, healed, set free by Jesus through it. God has done WAY MORE through the healing from that horrific event, than if it had never happened. Take that, devil! 👊🏻💥 .
God will ALWAYS do the same for your life, if you let him. No matter how bad your past has been, Jesus will turn it around for SO. MUCH. GOOD.
.
You can find a short video of my testimony by searching “Emily Klotz Forgiveness” on YouTube. The 700 Club did a video a few years back, and they keep replaying it all over the world. Yay God! He gets the glory! 👏🏻
.
Please DM me if I can pray for you, after you’ve watched it. Big or small, you CAN let it go. Release your death-grip on that person, that situation, that thing that happened, even if it’s yourself or God you’ve got to release. And watch what God will give to you in return. Much, much more than you expected: peace and joy and abundant life. 🌳

Happy Full Moon in Aries ✨ hold fire if you are feeling angsty & see what needs releasing. We also know easier said than done, but we’ve all got something niggling in our heads that we could do without. Try to set your mind to put up a ⛔️ whenever those thoughts come in .. 💫.

A lil full moon on a Monday action. This full moon in Aries doesn’t feel particularly subtle. I’m sure you’ve heard that full moons are about release, release what no longer serves but.....they also illuminate. I’m from the south and when someone was acting a fool my mom would say they were showing their butt. Feels like this moon is like oh hi here’s where you’re showing your butt. Where are you mooning the world?

"This is why utterance is magic. Words do have power. Names have power. Words are events, they do things, change things. They transform both speaker and hearer; they feed energy back and forth and amplify it. They feed understanding or emotion back and forth and amplify it." ~Ursula Leguin 🔮✨🌌

Hace tiempo que me di cuenta que el camino hacia uno mismo hay que recorrerlo de primera mano, hay que experimentarlo vía uno mismo. No importa cuantos libros o frases leas, cuantas herramientas compres, cuantos cursos hagas. Que si no pasas tiempo ahondando, respirando, habitando tu propia piel y buscándote no te encontrarás. Siempre buscamos fuera, pero está todo dentro.
El famoso “crear espacio” que utilizamos los profesores de yoga es para mí eso, es ir eliminando peso que no es nuestro. Eliminando tensiones que no son necesarias. Eliminando cosas materiales que no utilizamos. Eliminando costumbres que no nos benefician. Limpiar para ser menos de lo que no somos y así poder identificar todo lo que sí somos.
¿Y para vosotr@s que es? ¿Como “creáis espacio”? Os leo 👇🏻🧘🏼♀️

🌛🌝🌜Full moon Blessings ♈
.
Harvest moon/Full moon in Aries .
.
.
God/Goddess,
At this full moon, I AM releasing all that is not in alignment with my greatest and highest good.
I AM choosing to be free. I AM choosing an end to karma by forgiving everyone who has wronged me and asking forgiveness of all whom I have wronged, in all dimensions, on all timelines: past, present and future.
I release all beliefs, persons and situations, that attempt to blind me to my wholeness and power in all dimensions, on all timelines: past, present and future.
I AM releasing all that distracts me from my life’s purpose, has planned by my soul prior to this incarnation. I willingly let go of all that no longer serves my greatest and highest good in all dimensions, on all timelines: past, present and future.
I AM releasing all beliefs, persons and situations, that have prevented me from seeing the array of abundance and opportunities that continuously flow to me. I AM ready to receive it NOW and allow all I desire to come to me.
I accept control of the circumstances of my life, at the same time surrendering to your divine will. I gratefully receive and accept your guidance.
There is nothing that can prevent me from moving forward.
I claim my sovereignty.
I AM free.
And so it is.

A life lesson I wish I had known a long time ago. "Some people'll come in your life for a lifetime, and some'll come for a season. You got to know which is which. And you're gonna always mess up when you mix those seasonal people up with lifetime expectations.”

Nunca había perseguido a ningún hombre en mi vida.. (llamarte mil veces hasta que contestaras no cuenta
@pipe.llr ) pero una noche leí un mensaje de él diciendo "estoy solo" y mi tripa me dijo que era momento de contactarlo.. Èl no estaba solo yo estaba allí.. Quería que lo supiera.
Lo conocí un poco, mi cuerpo temblaba incontrolablemente en su presencia.. Su voz me derretía por dentro.. Esos profundos ojos azules Dios!! Todo lo que decía.. La manera en que lo decía.. Un hombre de verdad.. Hicimos el amor y lo amé.. Me hizo sentir viva..
Me hizo querer olvidar toda la mierda que me atormentaba y escribir un nuevo capitulo en mi vida.. Normal, Natural, Tranquilo e intenso.. Aunque mi cuerpo reaccionaba agresivamente con él.. Mi alma se sentía en paz
Eso es amor?
Amor unilateral tal vez.. La vida sucedió y lo que nunca comenzó en un instante terminó.. Aún no se que pasó pero atesoro esos momentos y me siento afortunada de haberlo casi vivido
Pero eso que nunca entendí me quebró.. Me enfermó y no me di cuenta hasta ahora.
Algunas personas son solo síntomas de nuestra tristeza.. Perdí mi voluntad..Ya no importaba nada.. Esos ojos azules no eran para mi.. Y me entristeció tanto que sucumbi a mi síntoma.. Un ser violento manipulador y mentiroso que no tuvo oportunidad de lastimarme pues yo ya no sentía nada.. Me dejé arrastrar por que perdí mi camino.. Que diferencia tan grande decirle a alguien te amo sintiendolo en cada célula de tu ser una sola vez.. Y decirlo cientos de veces Sin significado alguno.
Ese azul..
Te veo en el mar.. Te veo en el cielo.. En mis sueños.. Te extraño tanto.. Como me hubiera gustado que sucediera.. No me había dado cuenta de lo triste que he estado por ti.
No se a donde me va a llevar la vida pero no quiero algo menor a lo que él me hizo sentir.. EFLB
