Dreaming

There was a time when yogi squat was extremely uncomfortable for me. Albeit my life was very different then, my body was only beginning to learn its way home.

I reflect on progress …or should I say changes/shifts; sometimes I get stuck on that word ‘progress’, a certain pressure attaches or binds to it in my mind’s eye, mostly in relation to bigger picture things. Grander works in progress …see there?… It feels good there, in that context. Words are funny, how they can toy with us.

Anyway… I have almost 10 years of lived yoga practice, together with a little more than 11 in lifting. How time passes? I feel a stronger connection in how I move through each discipline. How I connect more to where my body is holding, where I need to adjust, and how it is to feel strong and safe with ease. A greater respect of how energy is moved,  and how curiously interesting cues for activation and focus can be, and are.

I think WOW!, where will I be in another 10, and honestly, that excites me. The wonder of what that connection will feel like then? How much wiser will I be? What shifts and changes to my practices will occur?

Life moves along and transforms, in my own life at what seems like a snail’s pace. Then I blink, and AHA! I am here more quickly than expected.Poof. But..oh shit what do I do here ! To have a dream, yet not a specific clear picture , in this great dream of mine, I have a feeling. Moments and days I am sitting plop right in it, and it is home, this feeling, this great dream. It doesn’t have much of a shape, but I’m sure of how it feels.

As I begin this year I choose to live more cyclically and start the journey towards turning to my body, honoring its nature, finding my harmony and uncovering those big dreamy things. To go in, and not be afraid of what comes up, to be open to her lessons and accept her as my greatest teacher.

I follow my path of dreams in feeling, feeling at home wherever she may lead me to. Dropping into a peacefulness of resting in the life I am choosing right now, here presently. A knowing of emergence. The dream, it grows, it spreads, it reaches, it lifts, a strong energy force. The how will come into view. I feel it. I dream it to be true.

Lets trust our dreams into reality.
