October and Full Moon Meanderings...

Dear Friends,
 
I have been noodling on a few concepts for this post, and everything that’s come to mind has blown up in some way or another. Too much of something, too little of something else. Until now. This full moon has rocked some things loose inside me. 
 
As we wandered back to our room through the UC Berkeley campus last night, the heavy full moon kept us company, hungry raccoons reminded me of my desire to be a generous protector, and our compadres on the redwood trail kept things interesting and fun. In this state of meandering downhill back into town, I realized that in my dream of balance, perhaps there IS no balance… that maybe it is a case of instead, turning our attention from one valuable part of ourselves to another. From one important thing to another, in an easefully shifting way. 
 
I find myself here again in this familiar place, and surrender to my highest self the parts of my unconscious belief patterns that no longer serve. I have been given the gift of seeing these things as beautifully colored leaves gently leaving my branches, drifting down to rest on mother earth.  I look to the stars to understand the intensity of this time, the struggles for power happening around the globe, and I see my own struggles as a macrocosm of the whole planet.
 
What a perfect time for surrender. My moving into surrender and gratitude for all that IS, has allowed a graceful ease in calling forth that which I believe feeds my highest good. My family and friends who move through the world from the heart. My routines supporting my best health and highest fitness, so I may serve others most easily and in humility. A sense of peace for where we are, and where it is I wish to go. To take my tribe, paddle my canoe, turn my attention in those directions that I have been striving for and dreaming about.
 
This means I am nursing myself back to full health, compassionately. I am gently upping my physical activity in a little time each day, heading back to a full time routine. Approaching my obstacles curiously, and finding my inner aiki to see what it is they wish to share, so I better understand and can move around them. My focus professionally looks like a well-oiled flow, in both worlds of water and wellness. And I strive to shoot for two things in this new moon phase, that stoke the creative fire in my belly!

How are YOU moving through the world in this season?
🔥What is it that YOU envision and enliven in this full moon manifestation?
🔥What do you crave, more than anything else? 
🔥What legacy do you wish to leave this precious world? 
🔥How far can you move those dreams, in the last months of the decade?

Friends, I am serious in my offer to partner consciously with you. I am leading a manifestation workshop to get at the wholest and highest goodness we can each offer through this next wild season of the year. We will move through a guided meditation, celebrate new understandings of our collective shifting mindset, and create together our personal fall signature blend tools to take home! 

NOV. 3: I am working with Copper Cat Studio in Sparks to host an emotional aromatherapy and art workshop on November 3, 10-3: to Unleash your Inner Goddess with supported mosaic making! Grab your seat early for this one!

NOV. 17: I will be opening our home for this ManifestYOU workshop on November 17. Please mark your calendar and RSVP quickly, as space is limited.
 
Thank YOU for all you hold in this precious spinning world.  I am SO excited to see what YOU manifest over these last months of our decade!
