Think Less, Feel More

I’m trying not to think too much, but it’s not easy especially when I look back at the past few months and everything that has transpired; a move into a new home, a hectic summer of non-stop work, travel, a tragic death in our family and now here.

I can give myself some “slack” some understanding and know that it may take me awhile for me to become centered in my new environ and routine. Gabby asked us yesterday, “Why did you come to class today?" And then said," That is your intention,”

Why do we do what we do? In this moment I am still slightly scattered with my intention to being here in Nosara. Taking a personal inventory I note: I am here to recalibrate my physical body- there is something about my life here that seems to always bring me to a more vibrant, balanced physical place. I am here to work on my music, to become more independent with my performing and songwriting. Nosara has always been such a gracious and welcoming audience. It’s the perfect place for me to delve into unchartered territory and feel loved while doing it. I am also here to expand my writing and begin the outline of a book I’ve had in my mind and in various notebooks for some years now.
So these intentions are what I need to focus on, what will guide me and then I’ll see what happens from there.

In class today we were instructed to bow our heads to our heart center- to let the heart lead. Tonight I played my first solo gig ever to a very welcoming audience. Now on this still evening with the sounds of the jungle lulling me to sleep, I will add to my intentions to think less and feel more.

Namaste
