What people said about wome's empowerment day

Thank you again for a great Women's Empowerment Day today!! It was really lovely to experience all that you and Kristina offered us, and what a magnificent team you make. I was looking over the notes I've kept since I began studying with you and wow, with my experiences today I can see that things have really changed.....it's really profound how simple and elegant the learning has been (not necessarily the process though!) and how much of it has been about letting go of unnecessary confusion...
Sandra

Meditation to unleach your creativity

You may think creativity is to create art, to invent or to imagine.

However the process of creativity is a function of our second chakra,  physically it  functions to support  our reproductive system and the work of our kidneys. Creativity is related to connect ability, either to our environment or to other people. It is related to merging and understanding boundaries, and is a raw expression of new potentials. Creativity has to do as well with our vitality, our intuition and our sexuality.

For most of us winter is a season that induces theses energies to be in a dormant state until spring when they naturally re emerge. The passive aspects  of this energy may create in us a  feeling of being happy just to stay comfortable in our cave, eating more that we need to , and a make a lack of vitality to face the outer demands of life.

This active meditation is a simple way for you to regain that vital force and literally shake from your system the lethargy of the winter.

How to do it:

1.- Choose a safe space where you can be by yourself without interruptions.

2.- Stand up and open your arms on the side to make sure you are away from any furniture or objects you can bump into. Relax the arms on your side.

3.- Start moving your body on the spot with a shaking motion.

4.- Increase the shaking motion until all part of your body participate in the exercise.

5.- Keep shaking and involve your breath. Feel you are taking heavy molasses out of your body. Do it for 15 minutes uninterrupted. Feel free to accompany the exercise with your favorite music.

6.- Lay down and relax for 5 minutes. A nap will be ideal.

What to expect:

This meditation increase vitality and joy, it makes you talkative but relaxed , it enhances your stamina in life and in bed.

What is integral meditation

Integral meditation is a gift for those who are ready to grow into their full totality.

Integral meditation condenses the teachings of the structure of being, which identifies the existence of 12 bodies. Four of those bodies belong to earth and are submitted to earth laws.  Four bodies belong to love, therefore they function under different laws and principals. The other 4 bodies belong to the realm of the spirit with their living expression on the level of vibration and stillness .

This meditation stimulates and harmonizes all these bodies, including the chakras, and the pranic bodies.

It involves a process of integration, of cleansing and vibrational nourishment.

I admire the simplicity of this meditation with it"s  power to release anxiety, mind conversations, depression or any negative vibrations.

I  launched this meditation with the total awareness of the celebration and joy that it produces in it"s practitioners . I am giving this meditation in the form of a course so that the aspirant understands the needs, location and processes  of all their bodies. The course welcomes advanced meditators as well as new aspirants.

The integral meditation course is supported this year by small workshops that will enrich the depths of the practice and will supply to you a foundation to assimilate the new upcoming energies on the earth little by little so your physical and emotional bodies can harmonize them in a smooth and gentle way. Each month we will offer an enrichment that will leave you with much joy and inner stability.

This meditation is a self-training for those who wish to vibrate in Unity and illumination. It is a call for wellness, centeredness and self-responsibility.

WHAT PEOPLE SAID ABOUT INTEGRAL MEDITATION?

Thank you for the chance to be in your lovely caring presence and learn the steps for integration. It is amazing how it just creates the hollow on empty so quickly. It was wonderful to slow down, process and eliminate all the unnecessary energetic stuff I was carrying around. I look forward to the practice and integrating more.

Brigitte

I was thinking on the drive home yesterday about the energy at the end of the integration meditation and how I described it as lovely and enveloping and maybe cradling. Finding the words to describe it was challenging but during our drive home, the words sweet and gooey came to mind. I was surprised that gooey did because I think you described love energy as a goo, but I couldn't quite imagine how that could be. What I observed was not a sticky goo, but a soft energy with a noticeable density.....love syrup :) This is making me giggle right now....

Tania

Thank you for the hand-out. It is very useful.
Feeling lighter today. I am still in awe at what happened
to me when my parts came back. Woah!!! 
Catherine

Thank you so much for today, it was delightful to be in your graceful presence and to bathe in your ever so subltle and yet so profound knowledge. I look forward to embarking in this new journey, it is very exciting to have had the priviledge of being with you fo some time while your whole being was developing this integral meditation. It is a beautiful synthesis of the many gifts you have given us over the years and more...

Problems with procrastination?

THE ART OF SELF COMMITMENT

One of the qualities  we resist adopting in our lives is the mature effort to confront life situations as they arise . We know this quality empowers and is best for us ,but we still often procrastinate .

We surely know that, to act immediately  in front of life’s request is the best deal to keep the mind empowered and vital.

We also know that some of life"s demands requires us to extend our learning abilities in order to make new steps  with certitude and confidence.

We have also experienced that the actions we make that are in alignment with these  inner or outer requests of life, are the ones that bring abundance and joy.

 But  in some  parts of our lives we postpone the action, leaving us in concerned, worried and with anxiety.

WHY DO I POSTPONE?

Each action we perform is a way we view ourselves in the face of life.

Each action is laden with opportunities to perceive where we are and in which direction we are heading. Each action contains within it the possibility of empowerment and the opportunity to see our pitfalls and successes.

Procrastination is a choice we can make to keep the victim position in the face of life. It is a way to say to ourselves that life is bigger than us, and that we have to keep an ongoing rosary of excuses to keep alive drama and false intensity.

We become emotional, resentful, shameful and small.

Procrastination is a resistance. It is a tantrum to avoid assuming your power. It is a violent act towards your prosperity and your holistic growth.

BREAKING THE HABIT

Procrastination is just a habit of dis-empowerment. Here a few steps that you can adopt to confront the self-diminishing habit of procrastination.

First acknowledge what is the area within you that is in  resistance towards  taking responsibility.

For example: I can be on time for my classes and for my appointments, but I can be postponing my tax payments. First, notice what it means for you “payment of taxes” . It may represent giving social support, or to give what you don’t have, or to give more that is needed, of just a simple insecurity about money. That will be the center issue for your friendly observations.

2nd.- ask yourself what is the insecurity that goes with that attitude.

For example if is given social support, I may feel insecure in putting my trust in something that I don’t know.

3^rd, Ask yourself if the insecurity is based in reality or is it false information of the mind.

4^th , choose consciously if you want to keep  feeding your insecurities or do you want to empower yourself through the  situation.

5^th, Check if you are realistically capable of delivering the action. If not, research for support or learn a new skill.

6^th,. Just do it with no judgments as to the outcome.

7^th, Reassure yourself by performing an action that you normally are good at and/or have no problem delivering .

8^th, Relax and enjoy your inner strength.

We all have areas that normally develop in different rhythms, so don’t blame yourself if you are good in one area and not in others, trust that life will offer you the opportunities to grow into your full glory. Welcome all and acts in kindness and awareness.

Ayurvedic Suggestions for A Bright and Healthy Smile

 Cavities are caused by an imbalance of vata. As teeth are a by-product of bone, cavities indicate that you need to strengthen the skeletal system with minerals, such as calicum, magnesium, and zinc.

It would be helpful to buy a good quality calcium-magnesium supplement (Genestra is a good brand. You usually have to obtain these from a naturapath, but you will definitely find cheaper prices on-line if you search discount sites).
                                
To prevent cavities, tooth infection and receding gums, massage your gums with sesame oil. Swish a mouthful of warm sesame oil for a few minutes, then spit out the oil and gently massage gums with your index finger.

Ayurveda usually suggests the use of bitter and astringent herbs to brush your teeth: example, equal amounts of bilva and neem. The only commercial toothpaste I suggest is Weleda. Their salt toothpaste may be helpful for you.

Chewing well is not only good for digestion, but also stimulates the gums.

To strengthen your teeth and gums, you could try eating 4 figs (soak in water overnight if using dried figs) everyday and chewing them well.

Tap your teeth. Gently tapping your teeth together 5 times is said to stimulate the nadis (energy meridians) related to the teeth. Do this daily after brushing teeth.
