"Being infinitely patient means having an absolute knowing that you're in vibrational harmony with the all-creating force that intended you here. You know that everything will happen at just the right time, at just the right place, with just the right people."   ~ Dr. Wayne Dyer I love this quote...I do know this, I just forget it sometimes.  I know that when I am aligned with Trusting the unfolding of my life, I Know that everything is happening exactly as it should.  I feel Peace and I move through my life with lightness and joy. 

My husband and I were talking about all of the subtle choices we made leading up to us meeting. So many options were divinely presented and we chose where we felt most strongly led. We were two people from opposite sides of the world who "happened" to meet on a tropical island. When we met, we knew that there was a definite energy between us, and there was almost an audible sigh from the little angels around us that sat back, breathed out and said "ahhh...finally!!" The funny thing is that we thought we were in control! I guess we were, kind of. But our meeting felt like it was something that was meant to happen, no matter what. So I think that even if we hadn't met that night, other opportunities would have been arranged to ensure we did meet. I guess some things are like that. Some lessons, and some people, are so important in our lives, that they will come to us no matter what, even if we try to avoid it in a particular way, it will be presented in another wa...

I recently heard of a book called "Living Your Yoga" by Judith Hanson Lasater. It caught my attention as I'd recently come to the awareness that my life is my yoga - my spiritual practice. It is occurring every single moment, not just on Sunday mornings. In every moment of every day, I get a chance to practice kindness and respect and compassion and non-judgement and non-violence and gratitude. I get to remember Who I Really Am and show how I can express that and become even more. I get to align myself with my Faith in a greater power and Trust in that guidance. In doing so, I get to feel strong and empowered with a deep peace underlying my actions. For the most part...I am still learning to incorporate this and so I do slip into old conditionings some times. I thought about buying the book. But decided against it. I'm sure there are some great tips in it, but it would be written from the authors point of view and right now, I'm Living MY Yoga. Are you livin...

Balance is when there is harmony within mind, body and spirit - each one and as a unit. I am getting much better at recognising the early stages of imbalance in my life. I can get in touch with minor irritations that I used to dwell on for days, stewing them into something more than what was necessary. It has taken time, a path of growth and mostly remembering to come back into this moment regularly. It's so easy to have our minds in the past - "what if I had chosen a different house/mate/job/path?", "why did I say that instead of this other thing?", etc.. - or, to have our minds in the future - "when I win the lottery / find my perfect mate / get a new car / lose 20 pounds / then I'll be able to do the things I want / be happy".. etc. There is certainly some value in examining things that have happened if we do so from a perspective of learning from them. To do that, we need to look at those things with a sense of detachment, as if we were wat...
