New moon in Virgo

Today we have a chance to begin again with fresh intentions for the month ahead. During this month we will transition into Autumn. Virgo is an Earth sign which will support our health and healing practices.

The summer has brought much growth and progress. Giving thanks as we harvest will ensure further bounty. Tuning up our self-care will safeguard us for the winter ahead.

For what are you grateful from this summer? What intentions can you set today for your health and healing practices? Ki to Happiness aligns with the energies of the day.

Perfect timing

Among the frustrations of trying to book my next trip to see my mom before the snow flies, and removing a trespasser from our deck an instance of perfect timing stood out. Bob and I went out our E bikes to take care of a few errands. We left at the same time and went to different destinations.

Upon returning, I heard him call my name from behind me. It brought me joy and delight. The simple gift of perfect timing overshadowed the perturbations as I chose to focus on the Divine Intervention at work in my life instead.

Where do you choose to put your focus? Frustrations and perturbations or on the gifts of the Divine which are everywhere? Ki to Happiness looks through grateful eyes at the Divine moments of perfect timing.

Connections

As our private retreatment arrived, I greeted him on the street to usher him in. The next student who attended my 10 AM class, remembered him from our time together years ago at our yoga retreat in Bali. Later, after Bob’s evening class, I introduced him to another student, who is about to go off to a yoga retreat in Thailand held by another of our graduates who studied with us at the same time as he did.

I love making these connections with people. Past, present, and future all come together in the omnipresent present Now. Bali, Sedona, Seattle and Thailand join into a network of Here.

What brings you present in the omnipresent Now? What helps space disappear into the presence of Here? Ki to Happiness connects with the Timeless Spaceless One through yoga.

Private retreat

Today we welcome a former graduate of our Yoga Teacher Training program to our new location for a private retreat. He has created his own independent study schedule with us to serve his needs for continuing education. Staying in a nearby B&B, he’ll attend classes and private sessions.

I rode my bike down to check out his route to and from us from his B&B. When I got there, I saw his doppelgänger. I turned around to make sure it wasn’t him, since his flight hadn’t arrived yet and saw no one, as if his energy is so strongly here his retreat has already begun.

Are you independent enough to create a private retreat for yourself? What components would you need to make it a fulfilling experience for you? Ki to Happiness is honored to facilitate private retreats for independent yoga practitioners.

Day Off

I love the multifaceted services that I offer as others request. In addition to teaching yoga, working with other privately gives me a chance to use many of my other tools for their benefit. Today is rare day off.

I relish the time to commune with the god of my understanding. After my morning practices, I will attend both of Bob‘s classes as ever. This afternoon, I’ll enjoy the beautiful end of summer vibe and count my many blessings as we near harvest time.

How do you spend your time off? Does it differ much from your time on? Ki to Happiness resources herSelf, off and on.

Any Way

I am aware and informed of many problems and catastrophes occurring presently. I read the newspaper, and watch legacy and alternative channels to stay abreast of what we are all dealing with. This could lead to frustration, futility, and the feeling of failure for all of my efforts in my life toward healing, peace, and union.

Instead, I find deep joy unperturbed within as I sit in my practices, with my cats around me, and watch the dawn breaking. Any way that brings us in alignment with the deep abiding joy is a radical revolution away from fear. Choosing happiness anyway and in any way emboldens our free spirit to stay connected to the One in All.

What brings you joy? How can you stay aligned with it? Ki to Happiness chooses any and all ways that align my free spirit with the One, anyway and always.

Rituals and spontaneity

Daily, as I practice with ritual prayer and meditation I align with my Higher Self. From time to time, there is a spontaneous need. Having set the pattern of ritual, my energy tracks on to prayer and meditation for support.

It makes me think of the old hippie term, groovy. Rituals dig a groove and with each repetition, the groove gets deeper. Then, when some need arises, energy follows after that deeply ingrained groove.

What rituals do you participate in? How do they serve you when you have a spontaneous need? Ki to Happiness chooses and refines groovy rituals daily.

Linking Arms

We are stronger together. Holding hands or linking arms individuals create a physical bond. Energetically, we can do the same on the non-physical planes.,

Working with my helper yesterday, we linked arms with another who referred us to each other. The three of us will continue to strengthen and protect each other.Our intention is to shield one another and thise we serve from the forces that would weaken and separate us.

Who do you link arms with? Who’s hand would you like to hold? Ki to Happiness strengthens the ability to serve by linking arms with the Highest in each of us.

Helper’s helper

I love to help other people. As an Aquarian, my nature is to serve humanity, as each other is like my brother or sister. I’ve learned how to help from others who have helped me.

Today I will work with a new helper. She and I will put our energies, guardians, guides and healers together to confer for my benefit. I joyously open to receive the gift of help to top off my full cup of resources to overflowing, spilling the abundance everywhere I serve.

Are you a helper? Who helps you? Ki to Happiness heals and helps as others have helped me heal.

Brother’s 64

During my weekly chat with my brother, we celebrated his birthday early. He’s an IT guy, who gets to spend the day however he wants. He is likely to hang out at home with his cats, and enjoy a little light yoga.

We grew up being considered Irish twins. That means it won’t be long, and it’ll be my turn. When we were kids growing up, like others of our generation, we sang with Beatles song “When I’m 64”not knowing it would be like this.

What songs of your childhood shaped your approach to aging? How would you change the lyrics if you could? Ki to Happiness celebrates her brother with cats, yoga and song.
