Sometimes we get lost in time other times we let time pass and allow procrastination to pile up to do lists, papers, and books... suddenly we find ourselves where the only descriptive word which comes to mind is "stuck" . Once we meet "stuck" our perspective shifts and "stuck" is in control of a downward spiral that leads us to a dark dead end. Doesn't sound exciting at all. We are fortunate enough to have a supportive universe which provides us with the necessary tools, opportunities and energy to move past "stuck" but it is up to us to take advantage of the gifts of the universe otherwise we remain in the same place at a different time. I have been feeling the urge to energize myself and my surroundings, the intention was heard and what came back to me was Spring cleaning! It's time to clear out the clutter and cobwebs and create space for new energize and life. The yoga studio I teach at started promoting a spring cleanse and I began contemplating it. The last time I did the powerful power cleanse was over a year and half ago. I remember feeling like I was floating on cloud nine, life was great! Since then I have had my share of ups and downs, binges of cupcakes and caffeine, and mind games. Yup, its time for a cleanse, so here I am day 1 of an aggressive power cleanse consisting of blended raw foods. I have gone through 3 meals today and feel a little lightheaded but sense clarity at the same time. There is a deep grounded shit that is supporting the lightness of my nourishment. At the same time the teachings that are coming to me from various books, movies, and people resonate within me. The energetic fields around us are only here to support us however we must allow them to. It is our choice to allow or disallow all that we desire from becoming a part of our life. I am having a hard time grasping this but it somehow makes sense, so for right now I will sit with it and choose to allow. Cleansing is not just about the physical but also the mental and spiritual. I think back to how I felt after 10 days of silence, it has been only 4 months since that experience and yet it seems like a distant past. How could I have set for 10 hours a day and now struggle with one hour... life has a funny way of taking over. Its time to take back the control.
