The Art of Living...Be the Artist of Your Life Your Love and Your Beauty.


As I strive to bring balance into my life I reflect on the choices that I have made which create the art of my life.

Balance is a natural state of being. It is inside all of us but gets lost in the chaos of our lives by the choices we make in reaction to how we feel.

Living a life of balance does not mean that everything is perfect or stable. It doesn’t mean that we don’t have struggle or feel pain. What it does embody is living with life’s natural rhythm and cycles in synchronicity to our own internal rhythms. Balance is a state of being where the various aspects of life and ourselves are working as an integrated whole.

To begin to reclaim our natural state of balance, practicing the art of being in present time connects us to our body’s own rhythmic patterns. In doing so we are able to hear and feel our body’s subtle movements of synchronized directives that assist in guiding us toward choices, which resonate with life’s ebb and flow. How we choose to interact with this creative process within determines the emotional pressures that we feel daily.

Living in present time requires intention. And intention requires a conscious awareness to which time zone you invest your spirit in. Are you stuck in the past living in regret, in the future trying to control it or are you "being" in the present?

Life is continuum energy, we are set in motion by how we respond or react to it based on our perception of how that energy is affecting us. If we are living in states of internal chaos we are unaware of how we really feel and miss the subtle signals that our body communicates to us. 

So as I sit and struggle to sometimes find my balance I remember that I am responsible for how I choose to be with my energy and the dynamic nature of life’s energy. And in those moments of overwhelming emotion I can choose to unearth my inner knowing of balance within. By bringing presence to the moment and remembering that although I know I cannot control life, I know I can control how I choose to be with it.

Namaste

“If you’re an alive body, no one can tell you how to experience the world. And no one can tell you what truth is, because you experience it yourself. The body does not lie.” Stanley Keleman

A Chakra is the center of activity that receives, assimilates, and expresses life force energy. This subtle energy system is located at seven levels from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. Understanding how our bodies are affected by the beliefs we carry is my message here today. This basic outline of the first chakra shows us where we may be holding beliefs in our bodies that we are not fully aware of. Chakra 1 - Root Location:  Base of spine .  Influence: Base of spine, legs, bones, skeletal structures, feet, rectum, immune system. Associative Color : Red Central focus:  Primal fears, survival, abandonment, physical needs and safety, nourishment, self-preservation, tribal power, lessons related to material and physical identity, loss of money, the need for logic, order and structure, the inability to ground and form boundaries.   The first chakra relates to our emotional and mental health. It is our primal instinctual connectio...
"But seek no haven in my shadow, I will give you no hiding place here. You, created only a little lower than the angels, have crouched too long in the bruising darkness have lain too long facedown in ignorance.  your mouths spilling words. Armed for slaughter. The Rock cries out to us today, you may stand upon me: but do not hide your face." Maya Angelou Chakra 2 - Sacral   Location:   Lower abdomen, between naval and genitals.  Influence: Sex organs, large intestine, lower vertebrae, pelvis, appendix, bladder, hips .

"The only thing that is constant is change."

    The intension of this blog is to share information, contemplate life and to ask questions.  I do not claim to have any answers to these questions I ask. The only answers I have are to my own personal beliefs, which can sometimes change daily based on any given experience .    I s change the initiation for chaos?  Do we seek transformation or does transformation seek us? Transitions, letting go, surrendering to what cannot be controlled. "Everything must stay the same" a mantra that we all live with inside the human condition of the ego. If you think you can escape this, look again. "Yes, I want change to happen, I understand that it needs to happen but please don't let everything turn to chaos." Again I ask, is chaos the initiation to transformation?  Change moves us from one pattern into something new. In this process a pattern must be broken for the new pattern to be created. When something breaks, fragmentation occurs. The law of natu...
