Surfingyogi - The Blog
The vision is NOW! Here I am. Writing from my heart to yours. The very first blog of hopefully many more to come. Thank you for opening this page. I honestly really do appreciate it.
I have thought and planned to write a blog for about 7 years. Perhaps I’ve been too busy spreading my words and light in person to my beautiful community to venture into the electronic world until now. But here I am …. Starting now.
WE ONLY HAVE THIS MOMENT - THERE IS ONLY NOW
Living so in the now as much as I can I accept the growth, wisdom and timing of this. And I’m excited. There is no vision, just oceans of wisdom to share and fuel to this blog from my heart. I hope you enjoy the ride!
Why ‘Surfingyogi’? In a one word (well compound made up word), it seemed the best name for NOW. I have used it to simply describe myself before and it felt right. For NOW!
Change is the only given we have in this world. Even death is a transition of one state to another, and taxes - if you keep following my blogs - well perhaps one day you’ll see me leaving for a deserted island chasing the ocean and silence of yoga, or the same hidden along our coastline that my existence is hidden from taxes. I’m sure someone has done it, even if it’s not me. So even taxes aren’t a given. Only change.
I’m literally writing this after teaching a yoga class to a private client (who is absolutely beautiful and expanding in every breath constantly towards the light), where the only pose we held was suddhasana (easy pose) and a slight janu sirsasana to ease the knees after an hour of sitting cross legged. The candles I lit at the beginning for a ‘lore of presence’ start with our breath were barely looked at until we blew them out at the 1.5hr mark. What did we do? Whatever it was, it was AMAZING!!!! Every fibre of our beings, our busy minds, channeling divine insights together. I may talk a lot, but never for a full yoga class have we been that lost in the NOW that none of my planned class goes ahead. Upon reflection, I could feel how it changed her day, her being, her NOW and I in turn, went….it’s time to share this more expansively with the world.
I hope this blog if you follow me, over time will share enough pearls of wisdom, insights, and tools to help you live more wholeheartedly and with joy in your incarnation here NOW on beautiful Mother Earth. As we sail on the ocean of peace, your waves you encounter that rock your vessel, will find calm waters and oceans of blessings in every moment.
So stop right now…..take 10 full deep breaths. Use your diaphragm and breath like a wave in the ocean of peace. Start at the base of your emptied abdomen, rising up to expand gently in your heart, pause, be there in fullness, then, exhale and release. Slowly and gently let go from the heart and ride the wave back down to the base of the abdomen. And pause. Stillness, silence, NOW!
Watch this space for next month’s first topic. There are so many to share. I’m excited for this ride and where we may steer. Who knows. But if I’m living from my heart, and letting it guide my mind, I know it’ll be the right place. Let Surfingyogi guide both you and me.
You can’t make a flower blossom before it’s time. The planet is asking for that to be NOW! Let’s build a beautiful garden together!
