Full Moon Meditation Part 2 (Update)

The other day I shared a meditation on how to balance your energy with the Full (or New) Moon's energy. I wrote instructions on how I did it, but I forgot one key ingredient, Make-it-your-own.  That's right.  My meditations aren't a how-to-guide, they are a template so that you can tailor the meditations to what best suits your needs.

So to show how my cousin and I share brain, I told Marie I was going to blog about the meditation I shared with her, and a few minutes, before I posted it, she texted me and asked me if she could video blog the meditation.  I had already sent her notes on how I do it a month earlier, since she and I have trouble with balancing the energies of the full moon and the new moon.  I told her that a video blog would be great and that I thought it was funny that she mentioned it, since I had told her I was going to blog about it several days earlier while I was still in Tucson.  We hadn't talked about this meditation again until our minds came together on Thursday

That being said, I am going to share how Marie took the meditation and made it her own, she even had a little helper, her four year old son Landon, who has been learning to meditate with his mom.  Meditation can be a family activity, as these two will show you in the video. Marie and Landon, Full Moon Meditation.

Below is the link to my previous blog with the walk through on how I do the meditation, but again, keep in mind that it is a template.  You can do it the way I do it, the way Marie and Landon did it, or as I mentioned before, you can tailor it to what is comfortable for you, just remember, whether it is a large circle created by your arms, hands and fingers (think ballerina), or a small circle created by your hands (see the video), make sure a circle is made.  This is to symbolize the moon and will help you focus and balance.

I hope you like this meditation and I hope it helps, whether to balance, or just to learn a new meditation. Remember, as you will read below from my previous blog, this can also be used to help with balancing your energy during a new moon.

I would like to send a special thanks to Marie and Landon for their help vlogging this meditation.  You can read more about Marie and her blogs at Simplifying Mom, and you can check out her video's on her You Tube channel under Simplifying Mom. 

Enjoy the Full Moon and embrace it's beauty and energy, and keep your thoughts positive.

From a personal journey to...

I have blogged off and on about a personal journey I have been on for about a year or so.  It's nothing earth shattering for anyone but me.  I hate to say it, but I kind of became a cliché.  Indeed, I had become that person who needed to find themselves.  One of my favorite quotes along the way came from Tolkien, "Not all those who wander are lost".  It kind of contradicts my previous statement, well not kind of, it does, because I talk about finding myself, but truly, I knew where I was all the time.  Are you confused yet? Think of it as standing outside of your body inside a hall of mirrors.  Like a carnival there are images of you everywhere, but only one of those images are you.  So you go about seeking the solid figure and along the way you hit dead ends, walls, other mirrors with images of yourself and so on, until you finally stop, breathe and realize if you look at the mirror in front of you, there you are.  You stop trying so hard...

Journey to 40 Day 1.

Well the title is misleading, because my Journey to 40 began on January 10th, but in an attempt to turn my blog into something more than just a random thought or picture, I decided that maybe if I document my day to day trials of weight loss and getting my heart into better shape, it might help me to stay motivated, because this isn't just about being healthy and fit, this is about saving my life. I was born with Tetralogy of Fallot.  It's several things, but most importantly it entails a hole in my heart that in my case was coupled with a crushed valve.  I had a dacron patch placed on my heart's hole (insert pun or joke here) and according to recent tests, the pig valve I thought I had, turned out to be a reconstructed valve.  At least that is what we all have come to believe and I prefer to not be opened up to find out.  That said, my life has always been slightly different than other kids. For what seemed like an eternity, but was only about 8-9 years, I walke...

Coping in the aftermath...mama is gone...

People keep asking me, "how are you?", or they keep saying, "I can't believe how strong you are", or "how well you are holding up", but the truth is, I feel like a mess inside.  I'm no different than anyone else though. I hurt, I feel pain, I cry. I mourn, but I suffered through depression for twenty years, many of them without medication and I learned that by suppressing my feelings, they just fester and burst out like a bottle of Coke that's been shaken and the cap left on.  I'm not strong, I just have a good, tight fitting mask, that comes off every night when I crawl into bed and goes on every morning before I step out of my room. Actually I take that back. I do feel like I have gained a little bit of something I never had before, my Mama's strength and the I'm-not-going-to-take-your-sh*t-attitude.  Yeah, she wasn't big on swearing, hence the *.  I guess it is a little shout out to her, since I am sure that even though I ...
