JOB!!!

I got a job! Wahoo!! I will be joining the team at Bindu Yoga in Del Mar. It's a really cool story- I have heard great things about this studio, and about the owner Katie (an Aussie native.) I really wanted to meet her so I took two of her classes. At the end of the second class I went up to her to introduce myself and told that I am a yoga instructor, and yes I'm aware that everyone and there dog is a yoga instructor in this area... and she stopped me and said "your the person I have been waiting for!" and then gave me a big hug. Turns out she needs help with the teaching as well as the business side of things. I can't wait to start teaching at this quaint awesome little studio, and I'm really excited about the potential doors it will open for me here in Southern Cal. I just know I will make friends quickly, and make the connections that I have been hoping for. Check out the website:

So I was so excited last night with my new connection and my new friend- so I painted the studio logo and am going to give it to her tonight as a little Christmas pressie.

And- early this afternoon I passed my ACE fitness exam so I can check that box, and submit it to yogafit for the next step in the apprenticeship process. And- tomorrow we leave for IDAHO!!!

While In Africa, I learned...

to never take for granted my freedom and safty
everyone in this world has their own muddy corral to get through
to become unattached to my stuff
to catch a shore break... kind of
to "bloom'' where you are planted
how to use essential oils
to meditate
to accept
to relax
monkeys will steal anything and everything
how to stay grounded
to be thankful for the small stuff
I need a kitty in my life
I love the ocean too
how to enjoy a rugby game
to look at it like an opportunity
to not fear change
to appreciate differences
to paint
24 hours of flying to get home is not that big of a deal
to watch the stock market
to try to enjoy the present moment
to ask for what I want
to be safe like my dad
to be generous like Ben
to be humble like Andy
how to drive on the wrong side of the road
self worth is very important
to listen to my intuition
always try to be congruent
to always be grateful
I can live in Africa, and love it
the power of intention

I am Grateful for...

"Quotes that I love"

Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. - Howard Thurman
"If you care for your mind, if you nurture it and cultivate it just like a fertile rich garden, it will blossom far beyond your expectations. But if you let the weeds take root, lasting peace of mind an deep harmony will always elude you."
"Sure I am that this day we are masters of our own fate, that the task that which has been set before us is not above our strength, that the pangs and toils are not beyond my endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us."
