To Be or not to be

My dudes, we made it!  Labor Day has come and gone, cooler temps are here, people are back to school... the summer season, and all its fruits, are moving in to the rear view. Nature is doing her thing. I have been talking a lot about change in the last bit of time, and whether it looks like it or not, we have made it through an invisible cosmic transition.
If you have had the joy and privilege of birthing a child, you will recognize the word "transition."  For those of you who DON'T know, it is the stage in childbirth labor when the uterine contractions of the person giving birth have done their work, and it is almost time to push the baby out into the world.  It has usually been a long haul, and the person feels DONE. Cooked. Exhausted.  A partner or doula is useful to offer support and encouragement. The finish line is near, but not here.  Close but no cigar, as the saying goes.
In the manner of a doula, I offer these practices as support during this time of cosmic transition.
1) Be Present: get still and witness
2) Be Aware:  the mind is almost always active, giving commentary, replaying the past, worrying about the future.  As you become aware of this mental activity, release thought, and return to step 1.
3) Be Creative:  we are creative beings. That which is held in mind tends to manifest.  This is not theory, but universal law. Are you creating your experience of the world consciously or unconsciously?(see step 2). 
For better or worse, we are in this Life together; individuals creating our common experience.  Ram Dass said so beautifully, "We are all just walking each other Home."  As such, may we keep our minds grace-full and kind, encouraging and supportive of one another, so that the world we are birthing is vibrant and healthy.  Not just for ourselves, but for the generations to come.
I am teaching yoga Monday, then off the following week.  Click the link to join class or to book an appointment.
