Safe:
free from harm or risk.
Haven:
refuge.
My motto
“Never be ordinary, strive to be extraordinary!” I believe we can change our whole lives in an instant, so for the record I reserve the right to change my mind, from time to time.
I have this affliction its called pronoia the opposite of paranoia. It's when you have the sneaking suspicion the universe is conspiring to make you happy.
What concerns me?
The fact that there are children that go to bed at night starving to death! The fact that our mother earth is so fragile.
My beliefs
When we die and we look God in the eye he's not going to ask us how much money we made or what we did for a living, or if we were famous?… He will say, how much did you care?
Jesus said. “Do unto others as you would have done unto you”.
We must care for one another!
There is still time!
Life is a great gift that I will never take for granted. I live in gratitude. Gratefull to be alive…LIST UPON REQUEST.
I am a healer, and a student, interested in movement unimpeded,uninhibited,flow, and how things work. I teach pilates because it is healing on so many levels. I am interested in the science behind the movement, so that we can actively pursue change in the body. It's not just a repetoire of exercises. Why are we doing what we do? I love teaching. I love the precision of the movement. I watch the body change and the mind alway's follows (or vice versa). It is such an amazing thing to witness. Change (in the body) happens over time not over night, with concentrated effort.
I read in enlightenment magazine a quote by Ken Wilber during his VIII dialogue with Andrew Cohen, “Awakening consciousness is in love with the world of form.” Pilates is all about form. I am a member of Ken Wilber's integral naked, every time I listen to Ken's dialogue's I am enlightened, that's how I heard about zaadz (gaia). Much gratitude to Ken Wilber, Andrew Cohen,and Brian Johnson, the creator of zaadz.
I strive to do the best I can. And am learning to forgive myself when I get sidetracked. I try not to make assumptions and I love life. Lately I have realized the best is yet to come!
I am in heaven when I am learning. I am open to learning anything that will bring me from one level of conciousnes to the next, anything that will trigger my awareness.
Please feel free to enlighten me!
Namaste,

A Chassidic Rebbi once taught that when one is standing in the light it is difficult to see into the dark. We often are privileged to stand in the light. It is a blessing to do so.
According to the Rebbi, our responsibility is to look into the darkness, really look, no matter how profoundly mysterious or threatening it may appear to us.
Our heroes, our teachers, have taught us, and continue to teach us, not to fearlooking into that darkness, that to do so gives us greater strength and determination to carry out our work.
There is much to learn from them, much renewed strength for all of us.
