Your Cornucopia

Harvest your happiness in these harvest months.

Love your friend,

What does it even mean to be human anymore?

I'm sitting outside taking it all in. Breeze, birds, bees, bus, blue sky, people. Everything seems so irrelevant to these people walking by, passing each other, all wired up, plugged in, dialed out...of society. No "Good Morning," no smile, no warmth.

What if that beautiful girl that passed you by was your soul mate? What if you missed out on an opportunity to make a friend? Or better yet, be a friend? Maybe you looked at that man this morning and felt a connection, some good vibe, but you didn't even act upon that? No "Good Morning," no smile, no warmth.

 How is it that genuine human connection has been so vastly diluted?

About making decisions

I'm at a point in my life of transition. One chapter is ending, the other just beginning. . Soon, I will have to make a definitive decision about where I will be going. No more speculation, wishful thinking, dreaming. Real acting, real doing. I feel a strong component of this is letting go and moving on.

How do I know I will be making the right decision? How am I even defining the right decision? How do you leave behind those that you love for something you perceive as better? I am caught in the battle of what k n o w i n g really i s. What if I leave you for something I think will be good for me, when really I should have stayed? What would I do with myself then? What do I do? What do you do?

Raw

Be the raw you. The no-holding-back, you. It feels really good.

A "How -to" Guide to a Completely Positive, Healthy Lifestyle

A friend of mine challenged me to eliminate the usage of "I" and negative words like "no and "not" in my speech. This forces the flow of vocabulary and improved syntax. It allows your message to take on a more global approach rather than egocentric and works towards a positive goal. Furthermore, in doing this, you further the spiritual movement in consciousness expansion. If you envision your ideal self as being whole, enlightened, interconnected and unchanged by the tribulations of our present society, then accept the challenge proposed.

The World's Oldest Hobby

Cosmos Observation. Too often we (the collective we, not specifically you and I) become enveloped with the monotony of day-to-day tasks. We see only what is in front of us. Tunnel vision. Take a moment to open yourself up to the rest of the world that surrounds you. Turn off your music, your t.v., your computer, step outside and tilt your head back.So close and so far away.  Breathe in the beauty of the world and gaze up at the sky. Observe what is happening up there in that world. Wonder.

e x p an s i o n

By doing y o u wholeheartedly, you're contributing love to your world and universe. You're part of this consciousness expansion movement just as much as I am. Live for today and think for tomorrow.

Don't count yourself out too quickly now..

It's funny how one moment you find yourself a little confused, worried and unsure of your future and within a day all of that can change. It's like God and the Universe just winked at me with a coy smile, saying "Yeah, I've got you. And you thought otherwise. Psh"

An angel delivered a wonderful message to me today. Restoration within myself. I became part of the "Occupy Movement." I started Occupy Yoga LV. I can tell you, I haven't been this excited about something in a LONG time. So, my main concern is that everyone from all wakes of life can have the opportunity to acquire mindfulness, peace, and unity within themselves. I'm also offering you self love, global love and the sense of being part of something bigger than yourself  And, I'm providing that for y o u. Free of charge because I love y o u. It all comes back to love, my friends.

Namaste.

Vanessa

Abundance Day

We've all had those stagnant moments in life, when we feel like our magic has tapered and our light has gone dim; don't become discouraged. The Universe is still doing its thing. You're still doing yours, believe it or not. Change and abundance is underway. Anything you dream of, anything you want is in your hands. I'm a visionary. I create my abundance. You're a visionary, so you will too.

Avoidance

Avoidance is the absence of honesty with thy self. You feel uncomfortable with yourself, with life? Well, tough shit. We've all been there; those situations in life that we find ourselves in, where we feel we have to Avoid them at all costs. The best advice I've ever received in my life has been to never avoid the trials and tribulations of your life. Introspection. Silence yourself. Maybe you're talking too much and maybe you're clogging your mind with too much filth. Take a moment to quiet your mind; quiet yourself. Take a deep breath. All this s t u f f you are crowding your life with is keeping you from tackling your biggest problem; y o u. At the same time, y o u are your biggest blessing. Y o u; the only being with the power in which to create a change.

You know that thing you were thinking about the entire time you were reading this....that thing that created an anxiety response, a gut-wrenching feeling, that thing that made you sweat a little bit? Yeah, why don't you start there.

What it's all about

September7, 2010 changed my life. I began on a journey with my best friend. We have been through it all together, but I wouldn't change it for anything. I have learned what love truly is and what it truly means to be in love. I am so blessed and so thankful for him. It feels amazing to be here; in love, with my best friend and most amazing man ever. It's indescribable. Happy 2 Year Anniversary!
