rise up for you are beautiful!

Last night I watched a powerful documentary Searching for Sugarman. If you haven't seen it, do.

It is a call to arms! Rise up...

- see every day as sacred

- beauty lies everywhere and is the key to creativity and inspiration

- success is living your truth 

- power is acting with integrity and humility

For you are beautiful!

life cycles

This blog is not about some new fitness machine, it's about a driving motion that continues throughout our journey called life.

My wonderful parents are on the eve of celebrating 50 years together, having lived through many stages, teen lovers through to grandparents, a gammit of cycles, one leading to the next and the next and the next, and which makes our cultures obsession for the fight against ageing truely far-out and absurd.

We would do well to embrace the stages or life cycles, to look out for them coming, prehaps prepare for them physically and mentaly. Change happens the instant we are conceived and is our only true constant.

Here's your homework:
Spend one minute every night taking in the moon. Wherever you are on the globe, pause a moment and check out it's ever changing most beautiful face. Use these instances to honestly acknowledge where you are in your life; Relect on where you're at. If an un-named fear arises, calmly speak to yourself saying something like "it's all only natural" and "I'm just on a bike called life".  These instances of reflection will help with self acceptance, they'll give you wings to fly higher above the world of worries

Try it and see...
