The Sunset... Oh what a beautiful & powerful thing.

There is alot to be said about the power of a sunset.  The beauty that a sunset behold and how it makes you feel.  It tends to draw your mind in the direction of reflection, gratitude and unlimited possibilities.  Somehow, the sunset magnifies emotions and allows the mind to conceive and believe that there is a direct connection between each and every element in this beautiful universe.

As the sun slowly goes down, it begins to mark the close of a personal, mini-chapter in the ever-expansive and individualized Book Of Life.  It is almost like a warm cup of herbal tea just before bedtime.  Mmmmm.  Although you can visually see the beauty, you can also smell, hear and feel the miracle and mystery of life unfolding right before you.  All creatures of this magnificent networt tends to take notice and naturally act accordingly. 

Let it's beauty remind each and everyone, that has the ability to use any of their senses (singularly or in any combination), to realize that the sunset can happen permanenty for any one.  So take time to give back to the universe what it has given to you.

Sexual Chakras

 

 

Bet you didn’t know that your chakra health is directly affected by the person(s) that you come into sexual contact with. Choosing a sexual partner is usually a connection between partners.  A connection may include any combination of the following: mental, physical, emotional, social, psychological, and in some cases, financial (one of the oldest professions).  I guess lust falls under any of those categories also.

Sharing another sexually may leave unwanted vibrational influences to the other that may cause the other’s natural vibration to not sync

Cleanse your chakras daily with a basic morning / noon / night yoga ritual…“Sun Salutations”.  This is a combination of yoga poses that has multiple cleansing, balancing and refocusing benefits.  Chakra hygene.

It was once written…

Pay attention to who you share your intimate energy with. Intimacy at this level intertwines your aural energy with the aural energy of the other person. These powerful connections, regardless of how insignificant you think they are, leave spiritual debris, particularly within people who do not practice any type of cleansing, physical, emotional or otherwise.

The more you interact intimately with someone, the deeper the connection and the more of their aura intertwined with yours.

Imagine the confused aura of someone who sleeps with multiple people and carries around these multiple energies? What they may not realize is that others can feel that energy which can repel positive energy and attract negative energy into your life.

I always say, “Never sleep with someone you wouldn’t want to be.” ~Lisa Chase Patterson

 

I say, well said.

Purchasing and incorporating more fresh fruits into your diet is sometimes not as easy or economical as buying pre-packaged, processed fruits.  Fresh fruits tend to ripen fast when not eaten within a few days after the purchase.  A great rule of thumb is to shop for fresh produce often, and eat them frequently.  If your produce does begin to show signs of over-ripening, simply cut them up and freeze them in plastic bags or air-tight containers.  They will last for up to 6 months frozen opposed to 6 days at room temperature.  Once they are frozen, there are many things that can be done with these frozen goodies.

Making something tasty out of leftover or over-ripe, frozen fruit made easy.

I like the taste of ice cream but don’t like how it makes my belly feel after eating it.  Now I enjoy the creamy texture and taste of ice cream without all the aftereffects that comes with it.  Yummy frozen yogurt did the trick.  Frozen yogurt has pro-biotics and cultures that aids in the proper digestion process, not only of the yogurt itself, but of foods that will be eaten later.  Instead of cut fruit, I topped the yogurt (vanilla) with blended frozen fruit to increase the flavor and enhance its nutritional content.  Any type of blended frozen fruit will do, as long as it is tasty.  Balancing flavors and textures brings the WOW factor to your taste buds.

Eat More Fruits!

This is a quick and easy way to enjoy a basic treat that can be altered to your taste.  Recipe will be available soon for you to try it yourself.

It's Been A While, but...

 

It's been a really long time since I have posted on this blog, but I am here to spark-up more interest and information in my efforts to keep a focus on 'art of yoga' and all that it pertains to in my world of zin.  I have been doing many things to elevate my personal health and welfare as well as getteing a better understanding of 'meeting folks where they are at'.  I have been conducting Organic Juicing events where folks can learn the basics of fresh produce combinations to maximize their health and nutritional intake.  I have also been creating new recipes that are easy to make as well as remember.  All the while, I am still doing at least 60 minutes a day of yoga.  Please stay connected for the book in the close future.  Shown, are a few pictures I'm sharing just to throw it out there.  N'Ameste'

The combination of Apples (sweetness), Kale (nutrient dense bitter) and Ginger (spicy antioxidant) provides enough energy and taste to satisfy even the hardest working desk-worker and athelete alike.  Perfect to the palate and for the body all the same.  I would suggest you to create a perfect combination that works for you.  Enjoy!
