Intention of holding space of safety, security and peace to recharge… revitalize … renew so that we can shine. You need ENERGY. Prana. Ki. Chi – whatever you call it.
Sometimes that’s found in movement as in moving meditation and at times, it’s found in holding your own space. In stillness. That space within that’s crammed, stagnant, blocked, muddles with unproductive thoughts, self-defeating distractions, has to get purged for freedom and clarity. For some of us, that emptying is daily, for some of us, just weekly will do … whatever frequency you engage in the clean-up and purge, effectiveness is in the repetitions – practice.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

These photos does not do justice – not the best lighting – but really a lovely restaurant for affordable healthy breakfast. Best pressed juice and homemade jams. Just fresh, light and comfy, woodsy, homey space.

Life
in all its wonder, Mystery, and glory is always better
when there are great people around you
to share the fun.
