Month: April 2022

Bob continues to improve in his recovery from his December stroke. In addition to figuring out a schedule of physical therapy that helps, without hurting, he also has taken care of all insurance and details to secure his coverage. The government is helping him in all these ways.

Yesterday morning I had some chest pain. I worked it out with his assistance, utilizing the activator technique to realign a rib. It’s great to be pain-free again, but what I’m really celebrating here is that Bob tracked on my issue throughout the day, checking in, and making sure that I’m OK.

How is your recovery from all that has occurred in your life? Are you doing well enough that you are able to track on others’ issues? Ki to Happiness has recovered and tracks like a bloodhound to discover miracles in ordinary life.

Yesterday I got my gold crown to replace my temporary. I’m balanced in my mouth now. This one matches the identical gold crown I have on the other side of my mouth.

When I get the first one, I knew I’d need the second one. There was no indication at that time. My intuition is now validated.

Do you listen to your intuition? Are you able to be patient until it is validated? Ki to Happiness appreciates all that is revealed through yogic awareness.

We took the Easter basket down to our 29-year-old, Jai. He loved all the special treats. He shared with us the big project he’s been working on as well as his recent participation in several friends’ weddings.

Then he climbed the scaffolding outside his kitchen window to cut some lilacs from the century old border around his rental house. Returning home, we place the lilacs in four vases. Lilac love exudes it’s fragrance throughout our home and Hatha Yoga Center on this Easter Monday.

What kind of love did you share yesterday? Can you still smell its fragrance? Ki to Happiness sends you lilac love.

As all the great spiritual paths honor what rises, we are drawn to reflect. Whether Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Sufi, Hindu, Buddhist or Indigenous Earth Based Spirituality has been your path, this is a time to open the cave of our being and see what’s there. What’s left behind.

When we see there is nothing, we may grieve, gnash our teeth and pound our chests. We are at the precipice of our understanding. If we can remain there and breathe, we may also let the nothingness lift us beyond ourselves into the Everything.

Which path do you tread? Where does it take you? Ki to Happiness has tread them all to come to the same placeless place, following the traceless trace of what rises in us.

The energies that have been stirred up recently come to fullness with the moon in Libra, the Scales. This could bring about a balancing effect of the many emotions brought forth with several planets in watery Pisces. All of the great spiritual paths are observing Holy days, bringing the Highest Potential forward.

Maybe you feel the shift toward greater balance already. With it, perhaps you can see your unconscious material more clearly. Through this process, resurrection of your Essence becomes possible.

How is your balance? What clarity do you need? Ki to Happiness chooses to manifest her Essence with balance and clarity.

On Yesterday’s Maundy Thursday, the weather exhibited extremes. Sun breaks dappled through the dark heavy clouds as rain, sleet, hail and snow fell from above. As if the heavens relived the epic events in the Garden of Gethsemane, the unstable atmosphere let all hell break loose.

My animal instincts kick in anytime the barometric pressure changes erratically. I hunker in squat position. Fortunately, that is yoga pose that facilitates digestion.

When do your animal instincts kick in? How can you best protect the small furry one of your heart? Ki to Happiness lays low until the atmosphere is more stable.

Since Bob’s stroke in December my subconscious has been busily working on alternate plans for a future without him. He’s doing very well. He will likely be around a while longer.

As that has been revealed, my subconscious reports to me in my dreams. One of my contingency plans played out while I slumbered. I’ll heed the warning as I am grateful to have gotten a clear message.

What do your dreams reveal? Can you take action on their message? Ki to Happiness integrates the message and gives thanks to the messenger.

One of my teachers and mentors uses the expression, “giving me eyes “, as a way to indicate a willingness to have eye contact. Now that most of our facemasks are off, we may be noticing the avoidance of eye contact, residual from our 2 years masked. It is as if our eyes are tired of having them as the only way in which we could express ourselves.

My cats insist on eye contact. When my eyes are on my screen, one or all three of them may jump up on me to make sure that I stop and look at them. In the night Padma kitty snuggled close to me, then purred, looking up at me. Giving me his most loving eyes.

To whom do you give your eyes? How are these beautiful faces looking to you without masks? Ki to Happiness gives her eyes to God-is with her morning yoga practice.

Today’s astrological influence encourages us to enjoy water as two planets are conjunct in Pisces. Jupiter, the benefactor and Neptune, the underworld meet to bring us into new dreams. Open yourself up to the Highest Vision of your life as you bathe, hydrate or steep yourself in the beauty of a body of water.

My Highest Vision includes you. I dream of a world of cooperative upliftment. In it, the joy of One sparks the joy of another, so together we enter the Kingdom/Queendom of Heaven while here on Earth.

What’s your big dream? Can you let yourself be near water today so you can remember it? Ki to Happiness dreams the same dream over and over.

Bob taught both of his classes yesterday morning despite having a physical setback. His low back hurt after walking 4 days in a row. I demonstrated for him and stayed closer than usual, enough to keep an eye on him.

The students didn’t notice. They were focusing on their own practices. Afterword, the report that I got from them was that each had the best class yet and they had their best practice yet with progress in handstands, shoulder rotations and pranayama.

Have you ever been in great physical pain? Were you able to continue to offer your best, and in so doing stimulate the best in others? Ki to Happiness has and applauds Bob, all the students and you for all your efforts.
