A Soul-Full Journey....Day 30

Day 30
I am at the end...wow
9:00am
TRX
10:15am
Hatha/Yin Yoga

these are my last "scheduled" classes 

I have really seen a difference in my core strength
which is something this practice focuses on
moves that were "killing" me at the beginning
are now still working me
but with much more ease and control

It is wonderful to see ones progress

and feel that sort of accomplishment...

but it does not stop here

I will continue with the TRX

and will be incorporation more of a variety

into my yoga practice.

I was speaking yesterday with a sister-friend

who did the month challenge with me

(using a different program)

about the things that came up for us,

during this period of intentional movement.

One of my intentions was to love my body better.

I can feel I moved forward in that

and yet I see I still have a ways to go.

This lack of body love was embedded in some

deep wounds of the past

and has been walking with me for far too long

yet

I have made progress

and I am so much further from where I once was

when I abused and loathed my body

so for that

today

I am deeply grateful

I will continue on this journey

cherishing my body as the temple it is

learning to loosen those things inside of me

that serve me no more

and take in the truth of the beauty and power

my body holds

This may take me for the rest of my

human life

and I am good with that

I think what is important with intention

is that we never go back

always move forward

making our way to the truth

forging our way to divine freedom

no matter how long it takes to get there

because truly

the gifts are found in the journey.

Spiritually

wow

What can I say?

Where do I start?

 

So many gift given

So many revelations

So many teachings past on

it is hard to know where to start

I will say this

I have realized through this Soul-Full Journey

filled with it's intentions

that there has been lingering shame within my life.

Shame of some of my choices in the past

and though I have walked through this place

time and time again

there remains a residue

and that residue has left me feeling a lingering

of entrapment

of which I was not aware.

Undoubtedly my journey with Eagle

has brought this to the forefront

allowing me to see

knowing

it was time for me to see

because

I had made that time

I had made that space

this is what intention creates

It creates time and space

for these lingering residues to bubble up

And this creating of time and space

is not embraced in our busy, instant culture

There were many times I felt challenged

I remember at one point saying to myself

"Really??? How much more "slowed down" can I be???!!!

MUH! 

lol

And so it is with intention;

challenging

yet oh so rewarding...

Not only did this time of intention bring 

the residue of shame to the forefront

but also it brought with it

a shift of perspective

driving me closer to the freedom I live/strive for.

Taking flight with Eagle meant freeing myself

from that shame of past mistakes

Mistakes made by a girl/woman who was living in lack

not understanding the abundance that is for all

to take hold of

the abundance that was hers to have and hold

Discovering that shame

challenged me to o deep within 

and be the person I was created to be

IN SPITE

of my bad choices.

 I once thought that a spiritual pilgrimage

was only for a period of time

Now I know

it is a continuum

a life time of journeying

back to Oneself.

This journey can be one of uncertainty

but

I can

I will

I do

trust

that uncertainty.

Thank you my lovelies

for bearing witness to this my journey

My hope

My prayer 

is that it has touched something in you

awakened a light deep within

so that you too will find courage

to begin or continue

your  journey back to yourself

for I love 

the company of your spirit. 

Blessings

Love and Light
