Cleanse, Meditate and Move
A belated Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy to be back! Jan-Willem and I spent the month of September and part of October travelling and discovering how lived experiences revitalizes my spirit!
Our trip highlights were anchored in three countries: a remote island resort in Malaysia, the Formula One Race in Singapore and the Art Islands in Japan. We did immersive activities of night time street-food tours, making Japanese washi paper, Shibori indigo tie-dyeing and exploring an ancient ceramic kiln and pottery community in an old quarter of a coastal town.
We are grateful to have experienced these new adventures, meeting people from all parts of the globe and immersing ourselves in activities that made us feel part of the culture of each country we visited.
Every time we travel, we discover there’s so much more to explore in this world!
Coming up this fall:
Getting to know how your body feels, moves and relaxes!
Your body is always changing, as does our moods and appetite. We believe it should be the same, steady and reliable in the way we treat it. However, the environment dictates a different reality, and we become surprised that it doesn’t respond to the way we envisioned it.
I know I feel this way often. I may notice a cold coming on one day, sensations in the shoulder happening the next or I am anxious about an upcoming event and my body reacts with symptoms. Becoming aware of how your body reacts to its environment can help with managing stress and uncertainty.
When realizing that the body is impermanent, always changing like all things living, you can relax and sit back observing these changes with compassion and acceptance since it will eventually disappear.
For some of us effected by the current events in Israel and other countries, our emotions can override the physical response in our body. Becoming aware of how your body feels, moves and relaxes can offer insights into its changing energy when you least expect it.
Take a moment to listen to your body’s signals and ride the wave of its journey!
