Your Daily Veta Vita Laughamin

I started my day today with laughter. It truly is a fun way to get the oxygen flowing and to clear the head.  Nothing like waking up with worry already on the mind or some strange dream affecting your morning. 

Today's laughercise was performed on the floor.  I laid down on my back and brought my knees into my chest.  From there, it just let loose. This is a common exercise in Laughter Yoga.  It really helps release tension and enable the laughter to flow.  Think about it...when you get a good belly laugh going, don't you bend over holding your stomach? This position does that for you and that's why the pathway to laughter really opens up in this position. 

Give it a try!  Warning:  Beware of feeling great.

5 "Sense"able Ways to Deal with Holiday Consumerism Madness

Get Back To Your Senses During the Holidays

Is this you during the Holidays?

How much do we really need?  I mean honestly.  Every year the bombardment of consumerism comes at us earlier than the year before.  Isn't our economy still floundering and aren't we all feeling the pinch?  If we fall to the lure of believing everything we hear, then why are we also running out the door and buying, buying, buying? It's confusing, isn't it?  I refuse to believe that we are all mindless individuals, so why have our senses become de-"sense"itized with this consumerism madness we experience every Holiday Season?

It's sad to see the news reporting how people line up the night before to get into a store and then, heaven forbid, witness people stampeding over each other to grab this stuff.  Have we all gone mad?!  Where is the common sense here?  Is this stuff going to make our lives better?

I know I look like that lady above some days because I get frustrated and overwhelmed by all of this in my face.  Could be that I walk through it every morning on my way to work in Manhattan down 5th Avenue and through Rockefeller Center, but no matter where you live, the craziness is there. 

Here are just a few thoughts of mine to share that may help get your senses back during the Holidays in case you share the same feelings as I:

1.  Listen to your own voice.  What messages are you listening to?  Who said you had to buy that?  Who said that was good for you? Who said this is how it has to be?  Listen to your own voice and determine what's right for you.  Don't believe everything you hear. Trust your inner voice.

2.  Be tasteful.  Watch out for buying a tasteless gift that has nothing to do with anything other than fulfilling some requirement of  "I've got to get a gift."  Often the simplest gestures are the most meaningful.  If overburdening yourself with time commitments, tastily decline an invitation. It was nice to be included, but you know better than anyone else if you are overdoing it and risking your well-being.  Follow-up at another time when you will be able to be more present. (ha! get it)

3.  Take a step back and look around.   Before stepping into the madness of the holiday momentum or if you are already caught in it, step back and be still.  Notice the beauty that already surrounds you and ask yourself, what do you really need?  How do you wish to partake in the holiday season and then create the experience that's meaningful and true to your needs, values and desires.
.
4.  If it doesn't smell right, leave it alone.  You know what I mean.  If someone is selling you a song and dance and your picking up the smell..... walk away.  Stay true to your instincts.

5.  Engage if it feels right.  Does it touch your heart? Does it make you feel warm and fuzzy inside or provoke a fond memory from the past.  Don't deny yourself to feel good.  Enjoy and live in the moment, but you decide based on how you feel. 

Juggling the holidays with your senses grounded.

The most precious and meaningful things are often intangible.

The Art of Hugging A Tree - 6 Easy Steps

Time out!  Life has been crazy.  It's time to reconnect to inner guidance and what better way to do that than by BEING IN NATURE and HUGGING A TREE! 

 

I love trees. Trees are a perfect representation and symbol of being grounded as well as connected to spirit. The roots are deeply embedded within the earth providing stability, the ability to manifest, absorbing nutrients while their branches reach towards the sky absorbing nutrients of light and connection and expression to life.  It's a perfect system. They are the flow of life. We pass by trees everyday.  They are all around us staying true to themselves, minding their own business, giving us so much just by being.  Do you ever stop to REALLY notice?

I wish they could talk, as I'm sure they could provide us with so much wisdom.  If you ever watched the movie, Lord of the Rings, my fantasy mind imagines it would be something like that!  Cool!  I'd go for a ride in one of their branches while they shared wisdom and guidance, helping me to change the world.  Ha! When I'm down, they always bring me great joy and connect me to what matters in life.  If I could hug a mountain, I would, but a tree is much easier and will have to do for now. 

Okay....Here is my 6-Easy Step Guide to the Art of Hugging A Tree (sprinkled with  a little humor):

Hint:  The best things in life are free. 

Step One
Center yourself - taking time to silence the mind and to connect with the elements of nature through your senses.

Step Two
Approach a tree with respect and begin to play peekaboo - to establish playfulness and trust.

Step Three
Have a serious moment of deep communication - don't hold back - ask the questions, cry if you have too, let it out.

Step Four
Embrace and embody the love, comfort, kindness, loyalty, compassion, strength and wisdom of the tree.

Step Five
Open your eyes - You are now connected and grounded - AAAAAAHHHH!

Step Six
Rejoice! - Give thanks and gratitude to our beautiful world we live in with a renewed spirit of being grounded and connected to ALL.

DON'T WAIT!  Get out there now and get yourself grounded and connected to your senses.  We need you well and it's time to be YOU in this world.

Let me know how it goes.

Your Dream Fund: Finding Money to Launch, Develop and Grow Your Business

Follow Your Heart...

If your Soulistic Adventure brings you to a realization that you want out of the matrix and want to start your own business, then check out the above for some helpful information.

Life is too short.  There is no reason we have to settle for "less than".  That is what gets us all into a mess.  Yes, it takes hard work, but wouldn't you rather be working from a place of love, from honoring what's in your heart and soul and then learning how to make a living doing what you love.  YOU CAN DO IT!

....and the money will follow.

Honestly, I think the world would be a better place if we simply lived by way of our GIFTS, not by what the world has mandated.  Be careful of group thinking as we too often get pulled into something that truly does not resonate with ourselves.  Stay strong and true to yourself.  Listen to your senses, get back in touch with what matters to you and how you need to live with integrity to yourself.

It truly is common sense, so buckle up and simply start charting your path back to YOU.
