✨HEALING✨

I’m moving into 2021 with a focus on healing, bringing aspects of body, mind, and spirit together to transcend suffering. We have so many tools and resources to help us accomplish this. This morning I chose Magnolia and Jasper to meditate with. Known as the Oil of Compassion, Magnolia facilitates a divine healing energy when you’re feeling disconnected, numb, or isolated. It inspires empathy and reminds us of our shared humanity. And Jasper is known as the supreme nurturer. It is gently stimulating, extremely protective, and said to empower the spirit as it sustains and supports through times of stress. This morning’s hike was for my body, the meditation for my mind, and these for my spirit. I wish you all a 2021 full of healing opportunities and will share some of mine throughout the year. ✨

“Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.” - Dalai Lama

Our guest speaker at convention this year was Leon Logothetis, the creator and star of documentary television series The Kindness Diaries on Netflix. Some of my takeaways?

Kindness is free. It is love. It can be life changing. Be kind to yourself as well as others.

For day 15 act of kindness, think of how you be of service to others. And then be blessed yourself by that service.

Day 13 act of kindness: return your shopping cart! It’s really a small thing and it’s a kindness to the other shoppers trying to park as well as the workers collecting them.

Day 12 act of kindness: share yoga! I got the opportunity to substitute teach a yoga class at my gym recently and it felt good to help the gym manager out while building up my experience and confidence as a yoga teacher. Here are some recommended asanas for anyone who sits for a lot of time!

Day 11 act of kindness: Don’t litter! And pickup trash when you are able! It’s a kindness to Mother Earth and to ourselves!

Day 10 act of kindness: write your pen pal! Don’t have one? Send a little note or care package to a deployed military member or hospital patient! 📝❤️

Day 9 act of kindness: celebrate someone! Cheer on their success or even a personal win! Everyone loves feeling appreciated. 🤗

Day 7 act of kindness: on this International Day of Charity, consider donating to a cause near and dear to your heart. We give regularly to Healing Hands and the Vietnam Veterans of America as well as a few other charities. With the devastation lying in the wake of natural disasters such as Hurricanes Maria and Dorian, consider donating goods, services, time, or money to relief organizations. Share your favorite charity in the comments to give others ideas!

Day 7 act of kindness: Music! Tonight I let my daughter stay up past bedtime to practice a song on the ukulele because it makes my heart happy when she actually WANTS to practice.

Mahamudra meditation is meant to be a genuine, relaxed awareness in every situation in life and to accept and appreciate who we are. For my day 6 act of kindness, I’m sharing this diffuser blend recipe to help you with your practice. Arise, the Enlightening Blend, promotes clarity while Breathe Respiratory Blend creates a sense of calmness. Use equal parts to preferred strength.

Day 4 act of kindness: Smile!
I find smiling at other people to be a simple and effective way to let others know they are not alone. Whether it’s a sympathetic smile at a mom struggling with her kid at the store or fellow commuter in traffic, a smile can go a long way in making someone’s day!
