Spring is a Time to Clear, the Equinox will Enhance it!

As I work outside, clearing winter debris, I feel myself clearing internally as well. Spring cleaning our outdoors or indoors reminds us of the yoga of living to do so within. As we go into the joyous celebration of Easter, of awakening, of rejuvenation and rebirth, we must do so within ourselves, clearing outworn patterns and behaviors that no longer suit where we are going. A new cycle begins and for more goodness to come, we must make room within as we do in our gardens and homes.

For me this is a great time for reflection and has it's own turmoil in it. Like the plants cresting the earths crust, it is not always easy to look within, decide what is not helpful and then actually get rid of it. The dead branches seem easy, other parts need the pruners to really remove them. Parts within us have the same strength and are not as easily unrooted. This is the process, and it is the perfect time to use the movement of the life outside to help us power through these uncomfortable times. I want to inspire you to do this within you as we do it in our homes and gardens so your stem can be strong, your flower beautiful and fragrant.

It is a lovely process growing. It is work, there are weeds to be cleared, there is soil enrichment to be done, there needs to be strength for the heavy load. However, the flowers are the result of this work and so well worth it. The times are changing, our thinking is cleaning up, our hearts and souls are being refined towards a more blooming world. All are doing this, we are never alone, nature offers us energy to grow into our beauty that we came to be.

Please join us in an inner clearing and Spring Equinox Celebration on Thursday eve at 7pm.
 Dr. Lauren Nappen will help us with this living yoga within as we are surrounded by the supportive nature about here. We welcome one and all to join in on what ever level works. $20 and a small snack to share would be welcome. Valerie Hopkins will add music and drumming, always welcome around the bonfire which is a great purifier. It will be a fabulous celebration! Done in a group always adds power and energy! Building a community of self empowerment is the goal of The Lotus Project.

Bloom where you are planted!
