happy new year

Today is a double-awesome day of celebrations.

Today is an Aquarius new moon, I wish a happy new moon to all! And, with the 2nd new moon following Winter Solstice, we also get to celebrate Chinese new year.

Happy new year, filled with Love,  joy, ease, and abundance for all!

This past year has held so very much change, focused commitment, healing, learning, and more Love than I had imagined possible.

This year, I am affirming my commitment to choosing true caring for me, more than ever before.

Happy new moon in Libra!

I hope you are all enjoying the shift in season. I am sure noticing a change in the amount of daylight.

I notice that as the daylight hours dwindle, the autumn season provides more opportunity for in-door cozy time, and introspection.

I like to practice self-transparency with my introspection, and notice the quality, content, and frequency of my thoughts. I find more time with my thoughts feels better when my self-talk is gentle. To support and promote gentleness, I like to practice plenty of varried self-care practices. I also like to make little self-care wishes with each new moon.

This new moon, I am aiming to open up my breathing, and straighten my posture with mindfulness, regular body position check-ins, and practicing deep, slow, breathing, often.

I hope you are finding plenty of ways to support gentle self-talk, and practice self-care.

anticipating a super full moon

I am feeling the building of the full moon, and it feels like a rowdy big escalation of energies, on so many levels.

While I have not always felt connected or aligned with my relationship with the moon cycle, and even, for a time, thought that such a thing was a hilarious, meandering path to silly-town, I now notice that my energy, mood, and manifestations have a relationship with the moon.

Now, when I feel a full moon approaching I make a point of sharing extra gentle self-care and attention with myself.  I am opening to new ways to deepen, my breath, and my commitment to living in alignment with the truth that Love for everyone, including me.

It is generally the very last part of that commitment that I trip on, from time to time. Unconditional love is for everyone, easy. Unconditional love is for me; oh right… yes, that.

I have noticed that when I share extra gentle self care, and attention, with simple, consistent acts of Loving care for my self, in anticipation of the full moon, I feel so much more awesome. I am able to enjoy the ebb and flow of energies of the moon cycle, with more gentleness, and less effort.  This particular super, full moon, I am enjoying deep, slow, easy breaths, at least 11 in a row, about every hour. I am helping myself process by walking each day, at a gentle pace, and feeling gratitude for the beauty I witness. I am also remembering to stretch out my chest, neck, and back, for even a few minutes each day. I have noticed that sharing even 2 minutes of focused body-loving stretches helps to open my breath, and ease bodily tension.

I wish everyone a very happy, gentle full moon!

Happy new moon to everyone!

This is a Leo new moon, and a great time for new beginnings and to start new self-Love practices.

I Like to make ‘new moon wishes’ each new moon, to help me focus my self-Love practices.

This is one of my Leo new moon’s wishes:

May each being be blessed to feel Loved,

and breathe deeply, easily, and with great freedom.

happy healing, and happy Friday to all.
