Old friends

Today is the birthday of some old friends from grade school. I reached out to them on Facebook to wish them a happy 60th. This past year of the Covid has connected me to many old friends as I live stream just about daily.

It has been amazing to reunite with my past in this way, in order to navigate the present circumstances. My future will be enhanced as a result of this blending. This and many other benefits we celebrate as we honor our one year anniversary of live streaming.

Has this year of the Covid also reunited you with some old friends? What other hidden benefits have you found from this most unusual year? Ki to Happiness highlights the silver linings.

Last year’s selfie

We are approaching our one year anniversary of live streaming our classes. Without knowing that that was coming, I was deeply involved in developing my website which included taking a selfie.

I look back on that picture now, and I see ignorance, hope and willingness to serve in all possible ways. Today, my ignorance has become wisdom. While I have no idea what next year will bring, my hope continues, as does my willingness to serve in all possible ways.

In what ways have you changed? What remains? Ki to Happiness remains hopeful and willing.

Freedom then Food

As my day begins, it’s quiet in the building. On Saturdays the other tenants do not arrive until much later. This allows our cats to have freedom to explore the larger space of our common foyer. They prefer that to eating. It’s that important.

I feel the same. In yoga practices I contact that sense of freedom. In my body I free up my energy with Asana, my mind with breathing, and my spirit in aligning with Its intention. Food comes after…

What are you most hungry for? How free have you been feeling lately? Ki to Happiness satisfies her hunger for freedom.

Here, Now

We are here, now! We made use of the March forth energy and are propelled into today. We can continue with the forward thrust of our creative impulses. Nothing stops us.

Take a moment and center yourself. As you simply breathe, look around you. Feel your way into this present moment. Notice the safety. Consider the day ahead and how you may extend this moment into your efforts.

What wants to be created through you? How can you take this safe moment of presence and utilize it toward your true desires? Ki to Happiness breathes life into manifestation.

March Forth!

Today’s date is also a command! And now that Mars has shifted in to Gemini we have the energy to March forth and conquer. It is a personal favorite day.

I am ready for it. I’ve gotten my replacement wallet, drivers license, debit card and soon credit card. I have healed from the burglary in record time. I have bounced back, thanks to my practices and many helpers! Feeling strong, and able, I will march forth.

Are you ready to march forth? In what direction? Ki to Happiness marches safely toward the light.

Music

This morning in my practices, I’ve been breathing with my heart. Allowing it to set the rhythm, pace and the depth. Bubbling up from within is an old song from Carole King I listened to “over and over and over again” as her lyrics sing. I’m so glad to hear it again after decades.

What we listen to and look at goes inside us. There’s no back door for it to come out. It becomes us, and comes through us when we least expect it. It’s so important that we allow in something good, consciously chosen, and in alignment with our highest values.

Have you allowed your heart to breathe for you? What does your heart sing as you do? Ki to Happiness quotes Carole King “ there’s no end to the music.”

Happy 48th

48 years ago today my mom married my stepdad. They eloped on a business trip. I gave her the gift of a monogram stamp, so she could seal her personal letters with her newness. My brother and I were living with my grandparents at the time. Little did any of us realize how much our lives were about to change.

48 years later, they still care for one another, and share their special bond of loving memories. I am truly so happy for them. I cherish the way my world expanded exponentially in our blending.

Are your folks alive? How long were they married? Ki to Happiness honors all who commit to love.

March First

Welcome March! While we bask in the cleaned environs the Full Snow Moon encouraged, soon it will be Spring! The winter’s hibernation has brought potential for much reflection and rejuvenation.

With an outpouring of support, I’m relieved to report our sanctuary of the Hatha Yoga Center is fresh and whole again. So is my heart. I will cherish the last weeks of winter here, remaining in Phase 2, grateful for all of you and all the has transpired in the dark cold season.

How will you welcome March? What is the best use of the end of this winter? Ki to Happiness will march first…

End of February

Time marches on. In my post burglary trauma, it seems to be doing that without me. A homeless guy asked me yesterday as I was getting my newspaper what day it was. I told him I wasn’t sure anymore…

Our governor announced yesterday that we will remain in phase 2. As long as we do, we seem to be in a holding pattern in which time does not exist as it once did. I am motivated to use the time to express my love and gratitude. Thank you all for reading this. I love that you take a moment to read, and consider what will help you choose happiness. Anyway.

How is your sense of time? In this ongoing distortion, how can you best make use of the time? Ki to Happiness chooses to express love and gratitude.

Virgo full moon

This full moon is a wonderful time for cleansing. In it’s light we may see reflected back to us energies to release, thoughts to clean up, objects to recycle, etc. Habits may be streamlined and altered in alignment with Higher Guidance.

A couple of weeks ago when the moon was new, we cleansed for the new year of the Ox. So it may be easy! You may see clearly one or another area or issue that needs your specific focus. It’s always easier to keep clean that which has already been cleaned.

What awareness does this full moon bring to you? How can you work with these energies best? Ki to Happiness keeps cleaning up.
