Counterpose For a Balanced Life

Goldilocks — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 13:55:48 +0000

We bend so that we don’t break. In yoga we do counterposes to balance out our bodies. If we twist to the right, we twist to the left. If we bend forward, we counter with bending backward. Most of us live busy lifestyles, we give to our work, our bosses, employees, or customers. At home we give to our families, parents, children, spouses, siblings, and friends. Some of us also try to remain happy and positive, by exuding joyfulness to the strangers we meet along the way. We bend so far one way however, we sometimes forget our most important self.

So remember to do your counterposes, bend the other way by taking care of you! Give to yourself so that you can continue to give to others. Fill yourself up with joy, and gratitude for all that you have. Feed your mind by reading, seeing, and feeling happy thoughts; and in your body by exercising and eating right. Stay completely healthy for yourself first, and for those around you. It’s the most unselfish thing you can do – taking care of you.

Love in Your World

Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. - Ralph W Emerson

You’re happiness in life is your creation – it’s what you perceive your reality to be. You have the power to create and perceive the life that you want. If you want a miserable life, you can have it. Turn on the news, look for mean people, associate with those who are negative, and be negative yourself. The possibilities are endless to find sadness, but why? Why choose to live in that world, and in that reality.

Choose instead to live in a world where every morning when you wake up, you know it’s going to be a great day! That somehow, all things, are working in your favor. You live looking for the good in others. It’s out there – you see it. You see the LOVE in people; objects; in jobs well done; in crafts made with care; in flowers; animals, and in the sun, wind and rain! Love is everywhere! YOU are also the LOVE, and you feel it in every bone in your body, and in every breath you take. Happiness and peace is there, the joy follows, and the beauty is easy to see.

Just a thought…

With LOVE for you on this beautiful day, Goldi

How to Achieve Your Perfect Life

Goldilocks — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 17:54:26 +0000

Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine, and at last you create what you will. George Bernard Shaw

To achieve your perfect life, goals should be self set so that the desire to attain the goal, fuels you. However, you must start with your imagination to help you set those goals. It allows you to create the life in which you uniquely want to live. The image then becomes specific and clear, which gives you a basis to set your goals, sending you in a direction and giving you purpose in life. The purpose will cause action, and this seed or idea that you’ve planted will bring about what you will.

What does your perfect life look like?

Love, Goldi

Rejoice in Life

Goldilocks — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 04:11:17 +0000

I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. George Bernard Shaw

I want to live a long and full life. I want to truly live, but somedays, like today, despite my best intentions, find myself at the end of the day as if it’s not been thoroughly used up. I made effort in some areas without any noticeable return, and unmotivated or uninspired in other areas. I wish I could say that my life today was full of great things, but the day is ending and my accomplishments are small.

Days are like that… it’s hard to see the whole when its been broken down to just one day. When I look back on my life however I see lots of accomplishments. They happened by taking lots of small steps, and many days like this, that over time came together. We just have to remember to always do the best that we can on that day, and to keep taking the steps that lead us to our long and full lives.

May you always Rejoice in your life!

With LOVE today and all days, Goldi

Hope You Never Stop

Goldilocks — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 19:43:22 +0000

To truly succeed in life, you have to be you; you have to be authentic, you have to live your passion, you have to be real! We are all different and there are many paths. Remember always to honor the divine in you! The part of you that makes you special, makes you unique, makes you – you. Go with that part! Run with it! Nurture it! If something inside you is calling you to it, then you should head that way. It may be just to get you to change directions, and it maybe taking you directly to that point. In either case, it needs you to investigate a little further.

Your job is to take care of you. You are first! Do whatever it takes. Stay positive, and fill yourself, until your cup runneth over. At that point you’ll feel like an eternal spring of great energy coming in and out. Then give, give, give.

Relax, take care of you, and Be Yourself – I hope you never stop!

Step Into Your Fulfilled Life

Goldilocks — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 13:09:25 +0000

You have to remember to grow if you want to fully live life. Take chances, do something that’s beyond your current reach. Extend and grasp the life that you want. If you know deep in your soul that if you do it, it will make you a better person, or enable you to help someone, or it will fulfill a life long dream. Then you need to do it. You have to start somewhere. Take action now. Take that first step. Then the next, and then the next.

Yesterday I watched a couple sing a song in front of a small group, the song was beautiful, and admittedly after, they said that they had not been singing together long. It was just something they had wanted to do, and they just did it. None of us would have been any wiser if they hadn’t shared. The point being, it’s not a big deal to anyone but you, if you make it that way. Just sing your song. Pick up that instrument. Learn that skill. Paint that picture. Stand in front of the crowd. Start that business. It can be something small like singing in front of a small group, although to them that might of been large. Regardless, they had to extend themselves, take the chance, and the reward is fully living.

Live your fulfilled life. No limits – Just take that first step. It may just lead you somewhere entirely different, and absolutely more fulfilling.

Do you live, just to exist…

Goldilocks — Mon, 26 Mar 2012 20:05:33 +0000

Do you live, just to exist, or are you living life passionately? Where are your thoughts taking you? Live with the idea that everything is possible. Live always speaking of the life you know, deep down in your soul you have. Regardless of what the current reality is showing you. Passionately live that life!

Always bring joy, and spread unconditional love wherever you go.

Your Greatest Wealth – Managed

Goldilocks — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 21:21:26 +0000

The greatest wealth is health. – Virgil

We’ve been conditioned to want material things. Trying to attain wealth so that we can have them all. But what would all the money in the world be worth, if you took care of everything to attain this wealth, except yourself.

Your health should be number one on all of your list’s, and with your long healthy life, think of how much time you will have to create and accomplish everything else. Understandably some material items are necessary like food, water and shelter. While other things are desires, hoping to bring us happiness, and admittedly, some do… Just as there are necessities for sustaining our bodies in a healthy way, or fueling our bodies with substances that may hurt us in the long run.

What I’m trying to say is, like your finances, your health needs to be managed. Manage your wealth by investing in your most valuable asset,…your life, your mind, your body. Increase the value of this asset by choosing to live healthily.

Surrender

Goldilocks — Fri, 16 Mar 2012 17:25:51 +0000

Where are the currents of your life taking you…will you surrender to the currents, and go with the flow. Nothing is happening out of order. It’s happening for your growth, and every experience is part of that process.

It is, and always was – perfect. It lead you to who you are right now in this moment. Not who you were 5 years ago, or who you want to be, but who you are right now.

Have faith in the process…

Love, Goldi
