I will grab this rare “blue moon” opportunity to check in after a period of very limited presence on social media!
It has been a busy summer, and I truly didn’t touch a laptop for a couple of weeks- as everything was stirring me away from website and social media). Leaving a ton of unticked boxes on my to-do list was challenging, but I I dived back into my coaching practice, workshops, neuro-studies and projects with a renewed sense of purpose and enthusiasm that justifies the diversion!
As I celebrate this month 25 years in the holistic field, I introduced new meditations in the workshops to remind each of you that you are an alchemist at heart. As the captain of your ship, you probably feel powerful winds of change blowing around. But you are the captain of your boat, and a choice to adjust our sail.
Today is a fabulous opportunity to tap into a rare “blue” Super moon-last seen in 2009 and not back before 2037. It will shine brightly on some key theme(s) of our lives and is asking us to surf our emotions with mindfulness.
This super moon is influenced by Pisces, a water sign governed by Jupiter, who reminds us of our emotional desire to go beyond the rules and limits imposed by Virgo season.
If you’ve been feeling anxious, rigid or obsessive about a certain situation, you can release the attached negative energy , gain a clearer picture and harness your inner power to make shift happen.
Even if you “don’t have time”, you can fit a few minutes of breathing work on; It will be beneficial and powerful. If you feel overwhelmed, you will benefit from doing some breathing work.
If you have never done any breath work, you can just breathe normally or use this simple but powerful 5 minutes switch technique: Close your eyes, be present within your body. Relax all muscles, pay attention to your breathing from within and physically smile.
As you keep this smile throughout the meditation, lower your breathing to your lower belly.
Now breathe in on the count to (4 or 5 seconds is ok) as you welcome the “issue” in with a mental “YES”-you can also say it aloud to affirm-
Then keep the air in for a few seconds as you imagine this concern to be transformed, healed and alchemised into water.
Breathe out, allowing the water to flow from you, and expel all the air.
There is something magical when you accept a situation as it is. It looses its grasps and glide…because you cannot resist something you accept, and it therefore open the flow to solutions and new possibilities!
This quick breathing technique might not take away the “issue”, but it will open your horizon to problem-solving possibilities and highlights some of your deep desires.
You will feel less concerned by the details, and ready to discard what you have been carrying unnecessarily.
Travel light, and enjoy!
