MEDITATIVE MOMENTS

Your Breath Is the "Now"

One of the teachings of yoga states that the body signifies the past, the mind signifies the future, and the breath is the present.  Therefore, our breath links our body and mind, our past and our future, and brings us into the stillness of the present moment.

Empowering Your Life With Yoga

Abundance:

The more you appreciate the more quickly you will receive !! 

Love:

Thought to Remember

Love demands a complete inner transformation- for without this we cannont possibly come to identify ourselves with our brother (and sister).  We have to become, in some sense, the person we love.

excerpts from

"The Portable LIFE 101"

by John-Roger and Peter McWilliams.

Be bold. Commit and act.

When you're so committed to something you know it's going to happen,
you act as though it's going to happen. That action is a powerful
affirmation.

Replacing a negative memory with a positive one heals it.

Health is more than just the absence of illness. Health is the presence
of aliveness, energy, joy.

“Surrendering is not giving up or is it a relinquishment of power.  On the contrary, it is an ability to be open to your life, to joyfully anticipate in its unfolding without fear or regret.”
