Spring Awakening!

Sunday was the first day of spring and what a wonderful God given day it was! Spring is such an empowering time as new life begins all around us in nature. And what a delightful way to begin anew inside each of us. How can you use this time to re-connect to the Being-ness inside of you? How can the life affirming changes happening all around you right now help you to take that first step towards losing the weight and obtaining and maintaining your ideal body? Remember, a flower doesn't bloom all at once. A tiny bud appears and through careful nurturing and tenderness, it opens it petals and blossoms forth up and out into the sunshine. Look to your village to help support you. Look to your Being-ness to help guide and nurture you. Here's a few quotes I like:

...there is no rose garden without manure!  

We can let our lives be directed by the same force that makes roses bloom--or we can do it ourselves!

And from Anais Nin:

There came a time when the risk to remain tight in the bud
was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.


A new post tomorrow: The Donkey and the Well—A Fable.

Happy Spring!!!
