umm… yes.
The more I meditate and do yoga – the more my empath abilities are heightening. I have been taking on energy from people that is extremely heavy. I was walking last week to get coffee and there is a large planting of yarrow… This was sally’s favorite tea. I happened to pick one up and put it in some water by my bed. I am actually a little obsessed with smelling it. I was asking my clan for help in finding a protection barrier for me from taking on all this energy – a stone, herb, essence. Everyone of them said yarrow. I love how we found each other even before she knew I needed her. Now I need to find some seeds to plant in my yard, but for now I will be drinking her essence and having it with me at all times.
If you know me… well, I am a bit obsessive. A true sagittarius with extreme passion and fire. So my new things now are yoga and hula hooping. I practice all the time, hopefully one day I will be as good as this lady.
Meditation on my porch in the morning and at night – my ritual and very essential lately.
part of my garden, I can’t wait till all my seedlings bloom. Putting my hands in the earth and connecting calms me when I have a bad day. So grateful for the plant people.
I am behind again on art work. I need to get caught up and get my shop updated. I am working on a secret project… soon, loves.
my friend Nikki is helping me raise money for Conrad’s surgery. Need to get this thing off. He isn’t getting any younger. He is 12.5 and since Ansli passed he is starting to show his age a bit more. I love this guy more than anything.
Let’s be inspired and be great… ok?!
Quote of the day:
When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds: your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties, and talents come alive, and you discover yourself to be a far greater person than you ever dreamed yourself to be.
~Patanjali
Card of the day:
Dolphin
Ever watched a school of dolphins playing with each other, or with the surfers in their midst? If you have, you’ll understand the message Dolphin brings today—the message of joyful play. Dolphins are in total harmony with their environment, and practice love for each other—always helping the young, or a sick comrade. Join Dolphin’s happy community today and celebrate how much we’re all alike, instead of focusing on our differences.

Hooping and yoga have been such life changers for me, and such a great outlet for all the stress and sadness I was carrying around.
What a wonderful friend to help you raise funds for sweet Conrad, I would love to contribute when I am able.
Yarrow is so beautiful, and it holds a special meaning for me as well. I am happy you both found each other, she is a special herb.
Good stuff for a Monday…so good to hear you doing so well!
I got into hooping a couple of years ago, but have let it fall by the wayside. I’m looking forward to diving back into it (and yoga too) once I move & start a totally new lifestyle. In fact, I think I might just need to blog about the process/transition. I had a blog years ago…perhaps it’s time to resume many things.
Thanks for the inspiration.
(and why not sell Robyn’s design Sally shirts for Conrad?!? Just a thought…I was really looking forward to one to go with my other Sally shirt! Trying to beef up my dog t-shirt collection for my new career wear!
I started following your blog just recently, linked from somebody else’s, and I am just so touched by this post.
Hooping! It’s drawing me in more and more, and I think it’s a sign. I mesmerized by the video. And what a beautiful friend you have for helping with your dog’s surgery. Beautiful.
