Lulu Bandha's Yoga Kira Ryder - Tailbone Movement Awareness

Guilty Pleasures

Mia's Scarf from Guilty Pleasures
on High in Millville. Love M's necklaces also.
The fabrics repurposed together here reminded me of
aprons and chenill and housecoats.
First scarf I've had that worked as a
head dressing, bandana, wrap. Or it could be because I watched Hideous Kinky. How to put on a head wrap lesson in this movie is worth watching the film for! I kid not?

Lili found the mosty wispy, luna moth, moon flower Mia scarf...

Perfectly amazing!

Calm River Accomodations

These pictures were taken in the style of my blog wallpaper.  Wouldn't you love to stumble into an old hotel somewhere with the same lovingly aged sensibilities?

Shaman's Journey

Out of Whack! But Over the Karma World so it is ok!

"Your emotions are out of whack now and you aren't sure how to get them back to where they belong. You may be feeling very spiritual and want to connect with your friends, but you aren't receiving positive responses to your overtures. You prefer a warmer reaction and without encouragement, you cannot keep expressing yourself in such a vulnerable way. Nevertheless, remember that it's not about how you are loved; it's about how you love that really matters."


Scorpio daily horoscope on igoogle.  My system is screaming that i better do what it wants or i have not seen anything yet.  Heed in your head the threats of the body.  Good grief what some bodies will go to to get attention.  Shameful. Can't you just enjoy what I enjoy along with me?  No, you got to make all this mucous that I can't get rid except by taking actions that require mindfulness and from there a path.  Cutting out the fun, the decadence. Come on.  Pure living really gets tired.  Half hothouse flower and half wild child in the street.  Schizoid makes for more agitation.  Wah! believes that agitation is our path to unfolding in to the void, the flow, the pulse.  For shaman's it's the non-ordinary reality (the void, flow, pulse of consciousness) where our journey and healing take place.  


Wah! visualization for cleansing.  Imagine you are exhaling all your toxins like ash. Mind's eye sees toxic ash leaving body.  That baggage that we don't look into. As we chant, meditate, hold yoga poses the idea is for that baggage to circulate and become known because of its insistent biting at the brain.  Holding those thoughts with you Over the Karma World.  Releasing them where they don't matter.  Clearing your channels and blocks.


 My Buddhist Chanting partner Barbara suggested to chant to see the truth in myself and the truth in others.  I soon realized that I also needed to chant for a whole lot of courage to see the truth in myself and to upcycle it.  Well that would mean for me sending it into the earth for transformation into something healing to the earth, me, whoever is the recipient at that time and place where the energy surfaces.
