Rolling into 2018 like...

New Year, New Me
not really…I’m usually setting all of my new years intentions & goals to the point where friends want to have goal setting dates…not into it this year…here’s why…
 1.   I set goals & intentions year round…so doing so for the new year isn’t actually anything new
2.    I love all this stuff. tarot card readings, crystals, astrology predictions, horoscopes, energy healings…mushroom tea (lol @astraedevin knows whats up here) I love full moon hikes & intention setting…I read my horoscope every morning…I believe in the power of my crystals (who thinks I am an actual witch yet?)
Don’t get me wrong… I have rolled my eyes plenty of times with this stuff too & I think some of it is way too far off from reality. There’s a balance for sure. 
The third & most prominent...
3.    I am living in the NOW



I took @MarcoYoga's class last week in NYC & I’ve never felt the power of the present moment so much as I did in that class. I physically & mentally felt the release of so many things…not to mention the release of possibly my right hamstring as I hit the floor falling into my mat after pushing to hold a pose SO hard. The falling out of it never hurt so good. Its because I pushed myself in the moment to be so present that I didn’t look or feel anything except the exact moment. (Couldn’t move that leg for a few days FYI) Marco’s influential coaching me through with the wisest words that lead to setting my most important intention of 2018.
The power of present..."theres NO where to go except here...where you are…right now...the NOW” 
When you aren’t in this state of presence and you are either looking back or forward, you can’t see opportunities that are right in front of your face. More importantly, you aren't being present in that exact moment before its gone forever.

So yes, there's things I would like to do differently this year…things I want to come…things I want to release…things I want to do more of…but instead of focusing my energy on all of this…I am shifting my perception of the "new year" & focusing on the NOW. Soaking up the people in front of me & the memories I am making right now, accepting myself, who & where I am now and all the love that surrounds me right now.

Happy New Year!
