      <image:caption>NOT LOCAL? NO PROBLEM! THE PROGRAM WILL ALSO BE AVAILABLE LIVE ON ZOOM. The focus of this workshop is to activate and align each of the six chakras and our connection through the seventh. Understanding what organs and parts of the body are influenced by each of them and techniques on how to impact the physical body by understanding the energetic body. By address in the energy body we can balance the inner working o the physical body. By tuning into the vibration you will be able to experience what balance feels like. Physical, emotional as well as mental ease through the ever present balance of prana/our energy life force and life source. Creating the environment for healing. We then will incorporate the practices of self care. Simple techniques which elevate the state of the physical body at any given moment in the day. Through the practice of abhyanga, reflexology and other self care techniques we bring peace from the outside world to the physical body.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Each one of us puts out energy and receives energy. In the processing of that energy is where our story unfolds collectively. Collectively writing the one book. We can either choose to heal and create coherence within us and around us, or disconnect and perpetuate fragmentation The capacity for the possibility of either one is our choice. Let’s choose wisely. Our wellbeing and how our book unfolds depends on that.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - I think I forgot to mention... - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Recently I received an inquiry about my methodology and what I recommend on the website and book. Her point was that she has heard and read a lot of things over the years and when she explored them they weren’t what they appeared to be. She found my website encouraging, and understands that eating healthier, practicing mindfulness and exercise can improve overall health, However, to say that it cured MS, she found “interesting.” I appreciate this so much. She’s right. If it were that simple, then why isn’t it happening more around us? My response to her questions were frank and from my experience. Here it is. It’s not just the eating healthy, or the meditation and exercise. It’s bringing many aspects together. It’s the breath work. The deliberate shifting of the mind to calm the nervous system. It’s the work to be put in every day to change our way of living/thinking to support wellness. Our bodies change when our nervous system is calm, and we give the chance for the body to go into rest and digest. There is time for repair. Without knowing it, we spend much of our time and our days in fight or flight through our thoughts and the way we breathe. As a result, there is no time for repair in the body in our days. The body is actively on alert and eventually our immune system becomes tired and confused from fighting imaginary tigers and bears that come in the form of bosses, bills, day to day issues, etc. Ultimately, it’s eliminating one symptom at a time. Will it eliminate every symptom? I have no way of answering that. But, I can say it will eliminate many of them. I can say with certainty, that if you apply what I talk about in my book and my classes, you will improve. I understand the skepticism. There was no one more skeptical than I on the subject of alternative healing. To be honest, unless you give it an honest effort, it may not work for you. But, if you do go forward and focus your energy in that direction, you will reap the benefits without a doubt.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - I REMEMBER WHAT'S IMPORTANT - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>This morning I went out with friends for breakfast , with the intention of celebrating the Holiday Spirit by doing a good deed. Honestly, until today I haven’t really been in the Christmas spirit, which isn’t like me at all. But after breakfast I could feel it coming alive in me little by little. We all parted and I decided to walk to the street market nearby on my way to my car. I stopped and bought an ornament, hoping to get more of that holiday spirit. Then i came upon a booth that carried candles. They smelled amazing and were so simply but lovingly presented. On the table next to the candles was a basket with cards like the one in this picture. I picked one up and read it. My heart cried and went out to the boy and his parents as I read it. I hadn’t noticed the person standing behind the table at the booth until I finished reading, and realized that she looked very familiar. I asked her if her son had gone to Smith School. She said he had and I told her my son had too. Then she told me her name and I realized who she was and who Kyle was. Kyle had been in grade school with my son. He and my son had been friends then. She told me their story. A story of incredible strength and courage. Kyle was able to transcend his disease and he is now strong and healthy. I decided to buy some of the candles not only because they smell amazing, but also because I needed to honor their story. Kyle’s mom makes all the candles by hand. She loves the process of pouring the wax and the different scents she has been able to create. Half of the profits of the sales are donated to the different organizations that helped Kyle heal. The love with which those candles are made will be passed on to us and will be part of those of us who light them. I found my Christmas spirit this morning. I remembered what’s important. #LocalBraddah</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - TRANSCENDING TOGETHER</image:title>
      <image:caption>The day Transcending MS arrived in my hands was a day filled with mixed emotions. It had taken 6 years for me to write and rewrite this book, and it was finally here! I was thrilled beyond belief. But it was also the day that I knew my story, with all my vulnerabilities, would be known to strangers all over the world. I was thrilled, but apprehensive. I knew the purpose for which it was written but… would what worked for me, work for others in the form of a book? I had been teaching and mentoring others with success., and Transcending MS was written for those I couldn’t reach in person. It has been 4 years and - Yes! it is working and it was so worth it! I have had the incredible privilege of knowing people around the world who have been helped by it. What has surprised me the most is that it not only has been able to help people with multiple sclerosis, but also those with other diseases, and beyond that it has inspired those who are healthy. My healing process gave me a purpose and it is being filled one person at a time, one book at a time, one moment at a time. For those who have read the book and have questions, you are welcome to e-mail me. For those of you who have read it and don’t have questions, you are welcome to e-mail me to say “hi”. For those of you who have not read it, I encourage you to read it. And for those of you who don’t want to read it, you are welcome to e-mail me anyway if you have any questions. We are transcending together.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>More than likely you know someone who has multiple sclerosis. It looks different on everyone, but that’s what makes it so difficult to treat. Reach out to those you know with MS. Help them raise awareness if that’s what they want. Or simply be a friend who holds space. Whatever it is they need, a part of them will heal through your love.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - WHAT SURROUNDS US</image:title>
      <image:caption>I have a room in my home where I paint, I write, I practice yoga, and I meditate. In this space I have surrounded myself with objects that make me feel loved. They are reminders of how rich I am in that love. This table in a corner of that room is a perfect example of what I mean. The sculpture was given to me by someone I love because they thought of me when they saw it. The peacocks were given to me by dear friends in India when I fell in love with the peacocks outside my window that serenaded me at night. The lamp was a gift to help me stay in health. The painting was painted by me when I felt my evolution of self love expanding and needed to go onto paper and paint. The heart was painted and given to me by a friend with love. And finally the picture of the little boy and little girl is a picture of two children and their innocent pure child love and friendship who are now all grown up and very dear to my heart . This is my table of love. All very different from each other but they all give me a sense of what love is. I am lifted in that love. What are you surrounded by? How do they make you feel?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - THE QUEST FOR PERFECTION</image:title>
      <image:caption>There is no need for us to be perfect. Who we are at this moment in time is who we need to be at this moment in time. It’s important that we accept where we are and who we are at this moment in time. Unless we do that we can’t proceed. The moment we accept, then we can provide the environment for the change for healing. In that acceptance the body can rest and be receptive to healing. It is no longer being judged for not being perfect. It is now in a state of receivership because it’s being loved. photo credit - @coastfineart</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Intention is energy. The intention behind energy has an effect. If our energy has the intention of love, the effect will be healing. If our energy has the intention of lacking, the effect will be of judgement and a lack of love. In order for healing to happen we have to create the environment for it. Our bodies feel the difference of our intentions. Create the environment for healing through unconditional self love. photo credit @coastfineart</image:caption>

      <image:caption>What if we practice gratitude all day? It would literally change our lives. It would impact everything about us. From our mental attitude to our physical health. What if we spend our days searching for things to be grateful. We would create a life we want to live… Let’s give it a shot. Nothing to lose and so much to win… So easy to do.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - WEEKLY MANTRA</image:title>
      <image:caption>We are in a state of balance when we align ourselves completely. That balance brings health. The mind and the body are not at odds and the heart embraces both. It confuses the body when what we are thinking and what we are doing are not in sync. To be healthy it’s important to live our truth. That’s where we can be free.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - 31ST DAY</image:title>
      <image:caption>31ST DAY- Here we are. The last day of our 31 day journey for 2019. This year, it felt important to make the space for us. The rest of the world needed to wait so that we could find our way to inner stillness, no matter what happened around us. Inner silence so we can listen to what our bodies need. Inner silence so our bodies can guide us to the healing process. In that stillness is our essence-love. In that stillness is the highest of vibrations we can have-gratitude. In that stillness we realize love and gratitude are no different. In that state of love and gratitude our physical being changes and the stillness makes the space for healing at a cellular level. If we practice this on a daily basis we have the ability to transform and transcend. When we are in a state of gratitude we send the message to the body that we have already received what we need. The body responds and fulfills that need-health. Let’s practice our last meditation together. Sit comfortably, placing your palms on your knees, with your palms facing toward the sky and the thumb and index finger touching each other. Your other fingers extended but relaxed. Take 11 full breaths beginning the breaths at the belly. Then bring your palms together at your heart and as you breathe in mentally say “I am” as you breather out mentally say “grateful”. Enjoy the effect of the palms together in sync with the intention behind your words. When ready release your palms and bring them back onto your knees. Release the mantra naturally. Stay in your stillness and experience what gratitude can do… May your meditation practice continue and grow this year. May your unconditional self love grow with it. May you recognize your power to heal. May your health be abundant. Namaste-the power to heal in me, is the same power to heal in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - 28TH DAY</image:title>
      <image:caption>28th day- I have managed to miss 6 more days of posting for this journey. It seems that life had other plans for us. On day 23 I was sitting in my hotel room at 10pm ready to post, when my battery died on my computer and I had forgotten my adaptor at home. Once I had my adaptor delivered the next day, i had no access to internet. So for the past six days I was unable to post. After spending many, many years talking about the importance of flowing and surrendering to life’s circumstances, I had the opportunity to practice what I preach. It was absolutely the best scenario that could have happened to me. I spent the time focusing on the precious fleeting moments with my family and newly born addition to the family. The universe had given me that gift and I wholeheartedly accepted and surrendered to it. I was able to live the Christmas spirit… Silent night, holy night… The rest of life would have to wait. I was flowing… I was going to apologize for my absence and break in the journey, but I won’t. What I hope, is that you are inspired to see in your own life, that what may seem like unfortunate circumstances, are actually gifts wrapped in ugly wrapping paper. Our perception of our life is everything. A shift in perception can mean a complete change in life. Possibly a complete change in health. I hope you continued to make space for yourself in my absence. Tonight continue as you’ve been sitting and as you’re breathing in mentally say “I am” and as you breathe out say”life.” Sweet dreams… Namaste-The life force which flows in me, is the same life force which flows in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - 22ND DAY</image:title>
      <image:caption>22nd day- In the state of gratitude, our whole mental as well as physical state changes. The feeling of well being that is produced in both has a tremendous healing effect. The guided meditation which we did yesterday is very powerful. We will do it once again today. Sit comfortably, making sure your back is straight and put your hands comfortably in your lap. Hold your left palm in your right palm, both palms facing toward the sky. Let the thumbs gently touch each other. Try not to move your body during the process. Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out for 5 breaths.. Then as you breathe in mentally say “I am” and as you breathe out mentally say “blessed.” Create a space between your inhalation and your exhalation and again create a space between your exhalation and your inhalation. Pause between “I am” and “blessed”. Pause between “blessed” and “I am”. Be aware of the words and allow the meaning of those words to settle into every cell in your body.. Flow with the experience. Release the mantra when it naturally happens. Stay there, in your stillness. When ready to open your eyes, do so gently and softly. In the pause, where there is gratitude, there is no fear…. Namaste-the ability to release fear in me, is the same ability to release it in you. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>18TH DAY- Let’s continue…. We will be following the same process which we did yesterday. Don’t try to produce the same experience. Release the need to control and allow yourself to flow with each moment. Go with it. Sit comfortably, making sure your back is straight and put your hands comfortably in your lap. Hold your left palm in your right palm, both palms facing toward the sky. Let the thumbs gently touch each other. Try not to move your body during the process. Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out for 5 breaths.. Then as you breathe in mentally say “so” and as you breathe out mentally say “hum.” Create a space between your exhalation and your inhalation. Pause only between “hum” and “so”. Be aware of that space and let the mantra flow around it. Allow yourself to get lost in the process. Flow with the experience without any expectations. Release the mantra when it naturally happens. Stay there, in your stillness. When ready to open your eyes, do so gently and softly. In this pause, the space to “be” is created…. Namaste-The space in which I am, is the same space in which you are. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - THE BEAUTY OF AWARENESS</image:title>
      <image:caption>I had someone tell me once that there were times in their lives in which they couldn’t take their eyes off an object because they were mesmerized by the beauty. He wanted to be able to fully take in the experience as long as possible; to be in that moment with the experience. He somehow thought there might be something wrong with him. Silently, as he said this I was asking myself why? Because he found so much beauty all around him that captivated him and gave him so much insight into our world? My response to him- I told him what an amazingly fortunate being he was. That most of us went through life in anticipation of what was coming next, and lost those moments that he had found along the way so easily. That many of us were seeking that ability, but somehow it kept eluding us. Did he need to change? Never! He, his mind, his perception, his awareness, is exactly what many of us are missing and don’t realize it. He has been blessed with having been able to keep that quality that most children have, but as they grow up they lose it. The ability to be in the present moment. The ability to find that “aha” moment in the “small things” in life. The gift of gratitude. I learned a lot from him that day. In being different he thought there might be something wrong with him. What I hope he now realizes is that there is something very right. Let’s make the space to find the beauty in those moments we will never get back.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>17TH DAY- Let’s continue to make space for ourselves. We are on day 17 to creating this habit. When practicing every day for 21 days it will begin to be habitual, and after 31 days it will be on its way to becoming natural. Nurturing ourselves to a place of peace effortlessly, is where this journey is taking us. Let’s continue…. There will be a slight change from yesterday. Be aware of the change in the instructions. Go with it. Sit comfortably, making sure your back is straight and put your hands comfortably in your lap. Hold your left palm in your right palm, both palms facing toward the sky. Let the thumbs gently touch each other. Try not to move your body during the process. Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out for 5 breaths..

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - 16TH DAY</image:title>
      <image:caption>16TH DAY- To have peace in our lives we must make an effort to bring peace to our minds. It’s essential that we give our minds a break. This carries through to the body. They are not separate. One cannot be at peace if the other one isn’t. The body is always listening and experiencing what the mind tells it. That is where making space for yourself becomes primary in the process. Without it, peace can’t happen. Let’s repeat the same process we did yesterday. Please don’t try to have a specific experience. Take what the breath gives you in the process. No two times in this process will ever be the same. They will each shine in their own beauty…. Sit comfortably, making sure your back is straight and put your hands comfortably in your lap. Hold your left palm in your right palm, both palms facing toward the sky. Let the thumbs gently touch each other. Try not to move your body during the process. Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out for 5 breaths..

      <image:caption>14th Day- We will continue with the mantra today. As mentioned yesterday: A mantra is a technique which helps you to take your mind to quieter levels. We will be repeating “so hum”. “So hum” is a reflection of the sound of breath. In addition, it carries a very deep, contemplative meaning - “I am that”. “That” being creation, the universe, the source. Let’s repeat what we did yesterday. Please don’t try to replicate what you experienced yesterday. Today your stillness will give you a new experience…. Sit comfortably, but make sure your back is straight and put your hands comfortably in your lap. Hold your left palm in your right palm, both palms facing toward the sky. Let the thumbs gently touch each other. Try not to move your body during the process. Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out for 5 breaths.. Then as you breathe in mentally say “so” and as you breathe out mentally say “hum.” Don’t make space between the inhalation and exhalation. Only focus on repeating mentally “so” as you breathe in and “hum” as you breathe out effortlessly. Allow yourself to get lost in the process. Flow with the experience without any expectations. Release the mantra when it naturally happens. Stay there, in your stillness. When ready to open your eyes, do so gently and softly. In this stillness the space is created and opened… Namaste-the stillness in me, is the same stillness in you… Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>12th day Our stillness… Our stillness is where we get to know who we are without all our titles. Our stillness is ours and always with us. Our stillness gives us inner peace. It is there, in that stillness, that the body becomes light and unencumbered. Let’s make space today to further develop our relationship with our stillness. Take your breaths in the same way you having been taking them and put your hands comfortably in your lap. Hold your left palm in your right palm, both palms facing toward the sky. Let the thumbs gently touch each other. Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out. Observe the space between each inhalation and exhalation. Observe your breath as if it weren’t yours. Flow with the experience without any expectations. Stay there, in your stillness. When ready to open your eyes, do so gently and softly. In this stillness the possibilities are limitless… Namaste-the source of the breath I take, is the same source of the breath you take… Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>10th DAY. Observation and flow… These two components are the basis for reaching a place of equanimity and balance. Why would these be related? In observing, we learn not to take the events of the world around us personally. In flowing, we allow our life to shift and shape according to what is happening in the present. In being in the present, we don’t yearn for the past or fret for the future, but rather we are an integral part of that present moment. And since we don’t take anything personally, we accept that events are just what they need to be for each of us at any given moment in time. With that in mind, peace can start taking a different form. A deeper acceptance of that which we observe, gifts us a deeper state of relaxation and hence healing. Let the breath help you learn this; a shift in perspective. Now have a seat and make space for yourself. Take your breaths in the same way you took your breaths last night, and put your hands comfortably in your lap. Hold your left palm in your right palm, both palms facing toward the sky. Let the thumbs gently touch each other. Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out. Deliberately create a space between each inhalation and exhalation. Observe the space between each breath in and each breath out. Pause and take a moment to experience the fullness of the inhalation, and pause and take a moment to experience each exhalation. Feel what that space gives you. Release all expectations and flow with what the experience gives you… Stay there as long as you like. When ready to open your eyes, do so gently and softly. In this state of relaxation is where the body is able to heal. Give yourself the space to heal…. Ease yourself into a state of relaxation and gratitude. In that gratitude you will find what you need at this moment in time. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>9th DAY. Peace is about giving ourselves what we need. Before we can give to others, we have to be able to have nurtured ourselves so that we are full, and from that fullness we can share. Otherwise, what may happen is that we attempt to give that which we don’t have. It leaves us in a state of uncertainty and loss. Observe the richness of what we have- The breath, our life source. In getting to know that, we can go deep within to know all that we are and are not. We get to now how rich we are. We can thrive in a state of abundance, equanimity, love and observe life’s changes from that state. Observing our buckets being filled one beautiful drop at a time, enjoying the process. Take your breaths in the same way you took your breaths last night, and put your hands comfortably in your lap. Hold your left palm in your right palm, both palms facing toward the sky. Let the thumbs gently touch each other. Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out. Deliberately create a space between each inhalation and exhalation.

In this state of relaxation is where the body is able to heal. Give yourself the space to heal…. Ease yourself into a state of relaxation and gratitude. Where there is gratitude there is no room for fear or anger. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

Observe the space between each breath in and each breath out. Pause and take a moment to experience the fullness of the inhalation, and pause and take a moment to experience each exhalation.

One minute, two minutes, 10 minutes, stay with the experience. When ready to open your eyes, do so gently and softly. It’s a very personal experience. There is no wrong or right way. It just is… Ease yourself into a state of relaxation and gratitude. You are exactly where you need to be at this moment in time. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>7th DAY We are focusing on making space, to make it a part of your daily life. We are forming relaxation patterns to make peace possible. You will begin to feel it in your body and your mind. Tonight, take your breaths in the same way you took your breaths last night, and put your hands comfortably in your lap Observe your breath as you are breathing in and as you are breathing out. Focus on when the inhalation ends and when the exhalation begins, and when the exhalation ends and the inhalation begins. Pause at each of those moments for a couple seconds. Deliberately create a space between each. If you find your mind wandering, just bring it back gently to the focus on the breath. Release all expectations and flow with what the experience gives you… Stay there as long as you’re comfortable. One minute, two minutes, 10 minutes, stay with the experience. When ready to open your eyes, do so gently and softly. Ease yourself into a state of relaxation and gratitude. Sweet dreams... 1 LIKES</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - BREATHE</image:title>
      <image:caption>I can’t stress enough the importance of the breath and how it flows. Most of us have never known the proper way of breathing. In order for the body to be fully nourished and the proper exchange of gases to take place, it is essential that we breathe correctly. The following paragraphs have been taken out of Transcending MS. To me, they are the heart of the healing process. Follow the process. Don’t try to take short cuts to finish more quickly. The more time you spend on it, the more benefit you will receive. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to e-mail me at margie@transcendingms.com. Enjoy… Chapter 15 - Breath Breath is our life source. The importance of it can't be stressed enough. Although you have been breathing your whole life, it's important that you breathe as your body is meant to breathe. Our bodies are meant to take full nourishing breaths in a relaxed and natural way. This changes when we are not relaxed. When we are afraid or stressed our breathing becomes shallow. Well, if you have been spending much of your life with stress, you are breathing with shallow breaths most of the time. In addition to that, keeping in the the stomach area has become a habit for many of us and that definitely makes it so you can't take a deep full breath. Old habits need to be changed to bring the body back to health. So at this point you need to learn what the most nourishing, healthy way of breathing is for you. Follow the guidelines in the subsequent pages very seriously. Progress at your own pace in your own time. Progressing faster is not better. Progressing gently and naturally is best. Your body will determine when to move on to the next step. Only move on to the next step when you are performing that particular breath spontaneously and with ease. They are all building blocks. In order for your structure to be sound and strong each block needs to be strong and capable of holding the blocks which will be built upon them. Be aware of every step and enjoy the process. Let's take this in steps. Step 1 Before we begin, it’s important that you know the correct way to breathe. When you breathe in your stomach should be filling up and when you breathe out it should be going in. Think of your stomach as a balloon. What happens to a balloon when you blow air into it? It fills up. The same principal applies to your stomach area. And as the air is leaving the stomach it deflates in the same way a balloon does. Sit up straight and take a breath. Observe what happens. If your stomach is getting bigger as you are breathing in, then you are doing it correctly - that’s good. If not, then try to breathe as I have told you. It’s still not clear? Ok let’s try this. Even if it is clear, please try this anyway. Lie down on your back. Breathe. Observe what is happening. Observe how your stomach moves up as you breathe in and down as you breathe out. That is the natural way your body wants to breathe. That is how you need to breathe when you are sitting or standing. Technically the breath is not going to your belly, but in order for you to have a full breath that is how it feels. For the next week I want you to just be aware of your breath. Make sure that you are following this procedure. Be comfortable with breathing that way. Until you are comfortable breathing that way, please don’t proceed to any of the following breaths. This is your basic building block for your breath. It’s very important you learn this first. Even if you have been breathing like this please continue to do so, but now I want you to be aware of it throughout the day. Take time a few times a day to be with your breath and observe it. Enjoy taking your focus to your breath. In addition to that, as you breath in, breathe in through your nose. As you breathe out, make a small “O’” with your lips and breathe out through the center of your lips. Take deep, slow and gentle breaths in and slow, gentle breaths out. What you will find is not only will you be breathing properly, but you will also find your body and mind slowing down and relaxing. The temple area of your face relaxes with that breath being released through the center of your lips. Ideally, do this at least 3 times a day. Take at least 20 breaths. In the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening before bed. You may choose to do it more often and that would be terrific! Initially, if it’s easier for you to lie down to do it, do so. But, after 2 days, do this sitting or standing. It’s important that you know how to do this and breathe like this at all times. Practice makes you better at it. Practice will also lead to it being spontaneous. Let this become a integrated part of you. So you are sure that you are comfortable with this breath. You are so comfortable you are ready to move on. You have spent a minimum of 2 weeks practicing this several times a day. Ok, then go on to Step 2. If you find that you need to go back to Step 1 for any reason please don’t hesitate to do so. Step 2 Once you have become comfortable with breathing correctly you can learn yogic breath. This entails filling your lungs fully and completely. Begin your breath by filling your stomach, next fill your chest and finally take your breath into your upper chest toward your shoulders. Don’t try to lift the shoulders, they will lift naturally. Focus now on breathing this way 3 times a day. Take at least 20 breaths. Do this in the same manner you did when you were learning to breathe correctly. Focus on your breathing. Be very aware of the breath as it is filling your lungs. Breathe in through your nose and out through the center of your lips. Practice this for at least a week. If at the end of that week you are not comfortable breathing this way, then continue to practice until you are. Take as long as you need. There is no hurry. The most important part is for you to be effortless in doing it. Remember these breaths are building blocks. Don’t go to the next breath until you have learned this one and are very, very comfortable practicing it. Step 3 You have now spent some time focusing on full breath in and now let’s add the breath out. As you breathe in you are filling the stomach, chest and shoulders and now as you breathe out breathe out in the opposite order. As you are breathing out, release the breath from the shoulder area, then the chest and finally the stomach. Do this slowly, gently, and uniformly. Observe it and be aware as it’s happening. Practice this for at least a week 3 times a day, taking at least 20 breaths each time. If you find that you would like to take more breaths, by all means do so. There is no limit to how many breaths to take. This practice will bring you much balance and wellness. It is very important to your total well being. It may not be easy initially, but I have no doubt you will get it once you practice. The main point is that you be with your breath. Be aware of what parts are filling with the breath and then what parts are releasing the breath. Do it systematically. What will happen is that you will find yourself spontaneously doing it with no effort. I can’t stress enough how important this is.</image:caption>

Even if everyone is not nice to us, we can be happy, if our mind speaks nicely to us. You need only 1 person to be nice to you - YOU - Sister Shivani We hold the key to being at peace at any give point in time. It is that key which determines how our bodies react throughout the day to where our mind takes us. When speaking kindly to ourselves becomes the norm, no matter what is happening in the rest of the world, our bodies and our minds are at ease and in balance. That is what creates consistent health. We are aligned and truly free.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - WE CAN SHIFT</image:title>
      <image:caption>The series of affirmations we have been doing for the last two weeks are very powerful. Affirmations make the space for us to shift our minds out of our constant self criticism and sense of fear. If we make the time and the space to shift mentally and allow our bodies to internalize and digest emotionally the meaning of those words, the shift will also take place physically. Our bodies know only what our minds feed them. In the same way stress is fed to the body by the mind, wellness can be fed to our bodies by our minds. It’s important in order to shift out of a diseased state. It is also important in order to prevent disease. They are not separate. Our minds and our bodies are connected at all times. Our bodies are always listening. Give your body kind words and loving thoughts. It will respond in turn. Be consistent and persistent in doing this. Enjoy feeling that shift as it happens. We can shift to wellness and balance. Namaste-the ability to heal in me, is also in you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The one thing that has been most important in my evolutionary process of wellness is FAITH. Faith in the ability to heal. Faith in the process of healing. Faith in the stillness to create a space for that healing. Faith in the process of shifting and changing, leaving behind that which no longer serves me. Faith in my intuition. Faith that there is a higher purpose for this body to have been out of balance. Faith in the focus on that higher purpose. Faith in the love I have for this body I’ve been gifted. Faith in the light which shines in me, and also in you.-Namasté</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - THIS MOMENT</image:title>
      <image:caption>When I got sick many things became incredibly apparent to me. The life I had taken for granted was no longer the same… When I got better, other ways became incredibly apparent to me. Each moment had become so precious. Each moment of my recovery became a gift. And today, 20 years after the MS diagnosis, as I live in health, I have realized that every moment I have been granted has become my wealth. All I have is each moment at a time. I don’t know what will be next, but I do know that this moment is mine to do whatever it is I choose to do; to be whomever I choose to be; to love whomever I choose to love. At this moment I choose only that which brings me peace and love in which I have been able to heal. Namaste-the ability to heal in me, is the ability to heal in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - THE WHY IS NOT IMPORTANT</image:title>
      <image:caption>Why have some of us found the path to yoga? Someone may have found it to improve his or her health. Someone else may be practicing because they heard yoga would give them a beautiful body. Or the reason for someone else may be because they’ve been told it’s the way to peace and possibly self-realization. No matter what the reason is, the fact is that you are here. No reason is better than another. The point is you have created the space for whatever it is the practice needs to give you. In my case I found yoga, or maybe yoga found me, because I was very ill. But the truth of the matter is that it has brought my body back to balance and health, but it also has surprised me in how much more it continues to give me. There is no right reason nor wrong reason. It’s what each day, the practice we choose gives to us. That which we may be needing. I’m happy to be on this path with you…no matter the reasons. Namaste-that light within which guides you, is the same light which guides me.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Twice a week I walk to the beach near my house to teach yoga at the water’s edge. Last week I was getting ready to cross the street to get to the sand, when I spotted this hammock hanging between two of the palm trees. It was a Wednesday morning, at about 8:00 am. It struck me that it had been a long time since I had seen a hammock hanging between two palm trees. This hammock was hanging sandwiched between a very busy highway sidewalk , positioned next to a bus stop, and the sandy beach and ocean. I grew up in a culture in which most households had a hammock. Afternoon naps in a hammock were common place and taken for granted. To see that hammock on this morning, reminded me of the importance of taking time out every day for a break, if not in a hammock, in a place that gives you peace and a sense of freedom. Don’t let the days pass you by without that. It’s as important as the air we breathe for our health. And by all means give a hammock a try.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Make a decision. It will finally put your mind/brain to rest. It will reduce worry and anxiety. Be proactive and stop the worrying cycle. Making a decision can be hard. What is the right decision to make? Make a “good enough” decision. The quest for absolute perfection is not only stressful , it is unrealistic and unattainable. Keep your personal excellence in mind, and choose what is good enough for you. Go for the good enough decision instead of the best decision ever made.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - LIGHT IN GRATITUDE</image:title>
      <image:caption>Tomorrow morning before you get out of bed, ask yourself what you are grateful for. But not just once, repeat “what am I grateful for?” over and over and let it be your mantra for a minute or two. Then observe what comes to your mind spontaneously. There will be things, moments, people, places, experiences, that have have been gifted to you in your life. Some may be big and others inconsequential, and some good and some may be not so good, but they are all coming to you from a place of gratitude. Let them sink in and move through your day in a state of abundance. Aware of how much you have and how fortunate you are. You will become lighter and lighter and your inner light will shine brighter and brighter. It is in that state that healing happens. It is in that state that we transcend. It is in that state that we feel unconditional love. Namaste-the ability in me to heal is the same ability in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - SPRING CLEANING!</image:title>
      <image:caption>It’s spring and the concept of spring cleaning is one that we are all familiar with. Although we’re familiar, it doesn’t mean we do it every spring. But I ask, how does it feel when you do it? Personally, during those times when I have taken the time to do a spring cleaning in my home, I have felt renewed and my home takes on a lightness and welcoming energy it had been missing for a while. Well, I’d like you to think of your body and mind as your home. They too need a spring cleaning every so often. When we take the time to assess what makes us happy and what doesn’t. When we take the steps to eliminate from our lives those things which make us unhappy and focus on those which make us happy, our lives change. A light energy settles in and with that , we feel renewed and ready to live. Take the time to do some spring cleaning for yourself this spring. If not now, when?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - LET'S GET SERIOUS ABOUT STRESS - PART 4</image:title>
      <image:caption>Meditation is not something you “do”. It is simply a calming of the mind. You can think of it in terms of giving the mind a break. There is no right or wrong meditation experience. Your experience is your experience and someone else may have a totally different experience. It’s subjective and indescribable because it’s your own experience. It’s a very personal process. The most important part I want you to understand before we begin is that it’s ok to have thoughts as you are trying to sit in silence. Acknowledge your thoughts, be aware of them and then step back mentally and release them. Be an observer of your thoughts, don’t become involved in them. Just observe them as they come and as they go without judgment and without reacting to them. Observe the process. Then you can move beyond them. To meditate it is best that you don’t lie down if at all possible, because there is a good chance you may fall asleep if you do. Sit in a relaxed position. Keep your back straight but relaxed. Keep your neck and head straight but relaxed. Before you begin any part of your practice take time to center yourself. It will enhance and enrich your experience. That will happen because you are taking the time to come to “now”. That moment in time in which you have chosen to spend it in nurturing and healing is in the now. In bringing yourself there you will be able to more clearly move through your practice in a spontaneous, relaxed and mindful manner. You are welcome to go to transcendingms.com in the audio files and follow that portion with me . It will help calm the mind and in calming the mind it will reflect that onto the body. The whole point of centering is to bring yourself to an effortless state at the present moment and leave any other thoughts or emotions aside. It will help to calm the mind and align your whole being in order to be more receptive to a few minutes of silence. When learning to meditate, a focusing technique is very helpful to silence the mind. In focusing on a word or a mental picture your mind can block all other thoughts and lead you to a place of mental, physical and spiritual peace. Pick a time of day when you have nothing pending to do afterward. Set a timer for your meditations. In that way your mind won’t be wondering how long you have been doing it or whether it’s time to stop. Start with 2 minutes, and when you feel the need to go longer set the timer for 3 minutes and continue adding minutes as you progress. There is no right or wrong length of time. There will come a time when you won’t use the timer any more. There are also guided meditations on the website. I suggest you listen to these as well. Now, let’s get started. You can follow the centering below on transcendingms.com audio files or choose one of the other ones on the website if you like. Eventually, after practicing daily for some time, what you will find is that you won’t need to listen to my voice but your own inner voice will guide you in your process. Below is a sequence you can follow to center. Once finished with the sequence stay there in silence for as long as is you need. We will move on to the focusing techniques in Part 5. For now, enjoy being centered. Sit in a comfortable position. Your back needs to be straight but relaxed. Your neck and head need to be straight as well and also relaxed. Breathe in through your nose and out through the center of your lips. Do this at the pace which your body dictates. Don’t try to impose a rhythm, follow your own body’s breathing rhythm. Place your hands in your lap with the palms facing toward the sky, and the right palm holding the left palm and thumbs gently touching each other. Become aware of the ground below you. Feel what parts of your body touch the ground below you. Become aware of the temperature of the space around you. Is your left knee in balance with your right knee? Is your left shoulder in balance with your right shoulder? Don’t move them, just be aware of them. Be aware of the sounds around you. Now become aware of the sounds which are a little further away. Be aware of the taste in your mouth. No judgement, just be aware. Now, as you breathe in, be aware of any fragrance in the air around you. Just observe it. And finally, even though your eyes are closed, what do you see in that space behind your forehead? In becoming aware of that space behind your forehead, take your awareness to your mind. Become aware of any thoughts that are coming and are going through your mind. Don’t try to stop them, just observe them. Now, become aware that all of this is happening in this moment in time. These thoughts that are coming and going are all happening in this moment in time, in “now”. Yesterday was made of nows and tomorrow will be made of nows. At this moment you are in the now. Be aware that now you are safe. Now you are breathing. Now you have thoughts which are coming and going. And now be aware that your thoughts are just that-thoughts. They are transient. They are temporary. They are not you. And as you breathe in be aware of the effect those thoughts have on your body and the effect your body has on those thoughts and let the two become one in this process. Let your awareness go to the essential way in which your mind and your body are not only connected but are one. And now that you have centered your body and your mind, take your attention to that spot which is in the middle of your chest at the level of your heart. It is at about the lower right hand corner of your heart. As you breathe in begin to breathe in through that place in your chest and as you are breathing out breathe out through that same place. Slowly and deliberately, with awareness, breathe in and out through the center of your chest - your heart. As you are breathing in fill your heart with the energy that comes with that breath and as you are breathing out release that energy and feel any anxiety leaving your body. Breathe in again and fill that space with peaceful energy and as you breathe out release any fear slowly and gently. Breathe in again and fill your heart with strength and as you breathe out release any sadness. Breathe in again and fill your heart with joy and as you breathe out release any tension or anger or any other feelings which may be causing you disharmony. And as you breathe in, breathe in with harmony, balance and love. Let your heart be filled with love and gratitude for this moment in time which are being given and which you will use to nurture, heal and above all love yourself and those around you. Breathe in and feel the balance and harmony in your heart and in your mind and in your body. All three becoming one. All three aware and centered in this beautiful moment in time. You can practice this at any time during the day. Always practice this before you practice your asanas (postures). Also, prior to beginning your focusing technique for meditation it is a very good idea to do this as well. It only takes a few minutes, but the benefits you will reap will make a very big difference in your practice.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - LET'S GET SERIOUS ABOUT STRESS - PART 3</image:title>
      <image:caption>We all have different symptoms which start happening in our bodies when the load gets too heavy for us to carry and our bodies begin to be out of balance. The information the body sends out to us is as varied as the reasons which created the imbalance. The load is heavier than the ability to carry it. Everyone’s perception of their load is different. But, the one thing we all have in common is that before the symptoms begin, we are unhappy. Unhappiness is the precursor or the environment needed for stress to happen. So how do we effectively manage it? There are many ways to manage stress. We have medical tools, psychological tools, as well as philosophical tools. I believe the most effective tool is shifting the way we perceive life, and all that comes to us within our lives and our reality. This is where one of the philosophical tools can help. Meditation. Meditation is a normal biological process. It has nothing to do with religion, or esoteric practices. When practiced on a regular basis it can lead to spiritual experiences, but the basis of it is biological. The brain is made of two parts. The left side and the right side. They are both just as important. The left side is analytical, organizational, rational, mathematical and can tell time. The right side is emotional, creative, intuitive, spiritual, artistic and doesn’t know how to tell time. If we concentrate and focus on something specific, the left side of the brain is engaged. We can concentrate on a candle, a fire, or a rosary. A rosary, not because it’s religious, but because we are engaging the left brain in the repetitive process,. When this happens, the right brain, which doesn’t know how to tell time, can enter into a state of being; in which there is no time, called meditation. It is there that we find a sense of much needed relief for the mind. It is there, where we step back into a state of balance and homeostasis. It is there where we find a sense of peace from which we can change our perception of the world and its complicated ways. Then, that unhappiness can begin to change. I will leave this for you to ponder. In Part 4 I will take you through a guided meditation. You can experience for yourself what I am talking about.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - LET'S GET SERIOUS ABOUT STRESS - PART 2</image:title>
      <image:caption>What are the different names and forms of what can become stress? Heartbreak, fear, anger, comparison, control… How does stress work in the body? I’d like you to think of yourself as a balance; as the balance of a load vs. the capacity for resistance of that load. On one side we have the weight of the load we carry with us, on the other side is the capacity of resistance to carry that load, The load is made up of our lives. We have our career, family, friends, social interactions, responsibilities, doubts and more importantly we have our inner struggles. When the load becomes heavier than our capacity to resist it, an imbalance is created that opens up the door to take the form of stress, It is then that physical symptoms appear. Symptoms that our body sends as information. That is when the body starts talking to us in the form of symptoms such as head ache, back ache, fever, stomach ache, anxiety ,insomnia, . . These symptoms are the information that tells us that our body is out of balance. That’s where it begins… and why it’s so important we listen to the body. It’s telling us that something is happening to create an imbalance. If this becomes a long term chronic imbalance then disease may start to develop. This why we need to get serious about stress.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - LETS GET SERIOUS ABOUT STRESS</image:title>
      <image:caption>I believe it’s very important that we take the effect of stress seriously. It’s become such a buzz word, and almost a badge of honor for some, to say they’re stressed. The truth of the matter is that the mindset of that stress, will have, and is having, a huge toll on the body. Whether the stress is coming from outside circumstances such as family, work, or social interactions; or whether they are internally generated, the perception of our world as we know it will determine whether our body will be healthy or not. It is up tp us, what we do about it and how we manage our lives. It is up to us how we choose to extend ourselves to ourselves. What is our frame of mind in taking in the workings of those around us? What is our frame of mind when drama unfolds around us? What is our frame of mind when our own mental chatter turns negative and unkind on us? It’s important that we become aware of it and how it affects our minds and of course in turn, our bodies They are not separate. Let there be no mistake in that. One cannot function independently of the other. I will be talking about this for the next week. Please don’t take it lightly. It could be the one thing which can change the course of your health. It is the one thing which did in fact change the course of my health. I will be setting forth short segments to make them easier to digest and give you time to ponder them individually. I promise you will be glad you did and won’t be disappointed. Let’s help the nervous system calm down. Let’s help the body heal. namaste-the ability to heal in me is the same ability to heal in you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This is my sankalpa for today. It is the intention that was formed by my heart and my mind as what I need for today. I need to work on this and reign in the will to focus on bringing harmony to my mind and body through the process of that focus.. Setting an intention for our day is a very powerful tool. If we take a moment each morning to sit in silence and let our internal voice guide us in what our need for that day is, it will facilitate an alignment which will create well being. That alignment creates a sense of relaxation in the body and the mind. That alignment allows you to be your genuine self unconditionally. Accepting and loving who you are NOW.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - CHOOSE WISELY</image:title>
      <image:caption>“We doubt our faith but we have deep faith in our doubts.” “Doubt” and “Faith;” these words seem so simple but they are ever pervading throughout everything we do at all times. They are always present. In thinking or saying “I can’t” a new faith is created in that doubt. We create an environment that supports the doubt but doesn’t sustain us. There is no sense of certainty at any time, no sense of balance, and no sense of harmony because everything is permeated in doubt. If we could transcend that by becoming aware of the power the doubts have over us, we could move beyond doubt to stand in the faith and certainty. Let strength come from the faith, with the awareness of the doubts. The whole scenario can then change. Making faith in our healing, a part of everything we do, will shift our perspective, leading us to well being. We have a choice as to which one is going to be what carries us through in our lives and our healing. Choose wisely.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Relaxation through breathing is key; relaxation of the body as well as the mind. One cannot be relaxed without the other being relaxed. In order for your body to heal, it needs to have total relaxation time, to give it the chance to heal. Unless the mind is relaxed, there will be tension in some part of the body. Ultimately relaxation of both is what needs to take place. It is in the relaxation that the healing happens.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - BE KIND TO YOURSELF</image:title>
      <image:caption>An excerpt from “Transcending MS” A stressed mind is a tired mind. A stressed mind has a difficult time absorbing and learning. A stressed mind passes the stress to the body and that is where the body may feel pain or get sick. Just as your body needs rest, so does the mind. Even when we are sleeping, our minds are busy dreaming and solving our days’ situations. However, if you give the mind a break from thought all together throughout your day, you will find benefits that are all encompassing to your mind and body. This brings us to the all important part of yoga-meditation. Meditation addresses all these issues. You will be handed a road map to help you achieve a good meditation practice. Again, starting out at your ability and progressing as you practice. There is no room for comparison. Just know that your practice is yours alone, and your own experience. Your experience may be completely different from someone else’s, but that doesn’t make one better than the other. Some days will be better than others. That’s o.k., it’s all part of the experience. I assure you that you will be very pleasantly surprised by the results. Possibly ecstatic! I know I am. All asanas, breathing practices and meditations will be split into levels. Depending on your physical abilities, you may progress faster in your breathing and meditation levels. That is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. The progression of your breathing and meditation are what will aid in your physical recovery and if you have cognitive issues, your cognitive recovery as well. One final note before we begin: I want you to be aware of the things which make you feel good. I want you to be aware of those which don’t. I am talking about music, books, television, movies, people, etc… There is no room for negativity from here on out. If that means not watching the news, don’t watch the news. If that means saying “no” to people, please say “no”. Do not feel guilty. You are now in a state of recovery, healing and living. DO the things you WANT to do, not the things you SHOULD do. DO the things you have to do with gratitude, that you can do them. It means a shift in attitude. It means you have a whole new attitude toward life and the adventures which will be coming your way. Be kind and loving to others, but most importantly be kind to yourself. That includes surrounding yourself by people and an environment which support your shift to joy and hope. It’s time to lose your fears. Fear is a paralyzing emotion. Fear is a negative emotion. Fear takes a very heavy toll on your body. I won’t go into the medical aspects of it-you can research it if you are curious. Just know that it is very important for your well being to drop your fear. Fear of what might happen if… what might happen when… what has happened in the past and your guilt about it… there is no room for that anymore. What will happen, will happen, what has happened has happened, and no amount of worrying will help. BUT if you take life and run with it and try to give it your all, you will be LIVING. BELIEVE you can get better, and then you can leave the fears behind. Let joy fill your heart and every cell in your body. Find new adventures that fit your circumstances right now. Have you always wanted to paint? Then do it. You think you don’t have talent? How do you know? Try it! What do you have to lose? You might be pleasantly surprised at how much fun putting paint on paper or canvass can be. How about if you try learning to play the piano or the guitar or maybe learning another language? The point is, try new things to stimulate your body, your brain and your spirit. The key is to start using parts of your brain which you have never used. Lift your spirit in ways you have never lifted it. Love yourself and others in a way you have never loved before. Now let’s begin the journey to recovery together. I will be with you every step of the way…</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - HAVE FAITH IN YOU</image:title>
      <image:caption>When I was sick, there was a point I literally didn’t which way was up or which way was down. But I did know I needed to heal. I put faith in the possibility of that healing. We have to have faith in our healing process. When you’re feeling good have faith in feeling good. You can’t think “I feel good now, but how am I going to feel tomorrow.” At that moment, you have just told your body that it’s not going to feel well tomorrow. Have faith in the ability for you to heal. Have faith in who you are, in bringing harmony to this body. Because when you do it in a mindful and loving way, the body will respond. Have faith in that. Listen to what the body needs and have faith in that. Have faith that this body wants to be healthy. Without a doubt, this body wants to be healthy. So give it what it needs. Faith is part of that process. You can’t have that process fully without having faith and without releasing doubts. If you start feeling ill, don’t assume it’s part of the disease you’ve been told you have. Don’t lose the faith and don’t go back to the doubts. The body has “off” days. Have faith in the process. Have faith in you, to be able to go through with that process. Have faith in you that you can discern what’s good for you. Feel it, you can feel what’s good for you. Allow “you” to be in alignment with yourself and have faith in that alignment. When the doubts start creeping in, be aware of what they are and don’t indulge them. I know it’s easier said than done. But, until we do, the healing process is very difficult. Until we do, we set ourselves back. It’s not that anything else is setting us back. WE are setting ourselves back. Be very clear on that. I’m not saying it’s your fault, but we have to be clear on what is holding us back. Is it fear? Doubt? Old recordings in our memory banks? Give yourself the benefit of self love and be willing to go for it. See what this body can do. Try. Walk away from what you have been told you have. Go for it. Fully, both feet in. Not one toe testing the water. Both feet in, dynamically, without a doubt. Leave the doubt behind and jump in the puddle and make a big splash. Let the universe know you’re here. You’re here to stay in health. You’re here to do what you need to become healthy. Replace the doubt with gratitude, knowing that the healing is happening.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS!</image:title>
      <image:caption>It’s been two years since the launch of “Transcending MS.” Wow! How time flies. This book was born out of my experience overcoming MS. Yes, I got better and became healthy. But, it wasn’t enough for me to get better, I needed to try to help others as well. Helping others is what this book is all about. It’s growing and spreading organically. So now, two years later, I’d like to know where and to whom it has traveled. Whether you have MS or not, would you share your experience in reading Transcending MS? You can share below or tag me. #transcendingms I’m looking forward to your story. with love Margie</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - WHAT WOULD YOU DO?</image:title>
      <image:caption>What would you do in life if you weren’t sick? What would you do if you were completely healthy? What were you doing before you got sick and were completely healthy? Did you take that health for granted? The answer is probably “yes.” We all do. We all take for granted the place and time that is the present moment. So what to do about that? If you’re healthy, get up and don’t waste a moment in going after what gives you joy!!!! There is no other moment to do it or prepare for it like the present. You have good health. Be aware of how rich you are because of it. How long will you postpone going after what fills you? And why would you? If you are not healthy, determine whether you are not doing it because you have fear or whether it really is not possible for you physically. If it’s because of fear, face the fear; give it the finger and go! We can’t let fear be what defines our life with disease. The thoughts of “what if” will disable you further in life. Don’t allow that to happen. That switch from “what if” to “I’m doing it” may turn into the best thing that happens to you. It certainly will be, if you’re doing what your heart wants to do. Now, for those of us whose physical disability may make it a real problem? Find ways of circumventing whatever it is that is an issue. Please don’t think I am minimizing your circumstances. But, it’s important that you keep living. So, start thinking of ways in which you can do what your heart wants. Sure, it might not be easy, but I guarantee it will be worth it. I believe that if you continue to push through to those things, people, and/or events that give you joy; they will also improve your health. No matter what the state of your health is, make sure you are living. Make each breath count. The beauty of determination and the the mind is that it can change the course or disease. Give it a try. You have nothing to lose and everything to win.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - IT'S NOT MINE</image:title>
      <image:caption>This morning it hit me! It just dawned on me, as I was waking up, that I have been referring to my symptoms as “mine.” When I talked about what was happening to me, I would refer to it as “my allergies.” I had been breaking one of my most fundamental rules in healing. Taking on symptoms as if they were mine. Of course these allergies weren’t leaving me! I was telling them I owned them; that they belonged to me. Well, they are no longer mine and I am releasing all the symptoms in this healing process. In order for a disease to leave us, we must let it go. We can’t refer to it as “my MS or my allergies.” It is simply a disease that is temporarily manifesting in our bodies. Ayurveda addresses symptoms and looks at the body as a wholistic entity. It identifies what imbalance there is in the body, which is creating a disease. By addressing the cause, the system as a whole comes in to balance. The symptoms are a gage to identify the imbalances. In this way the process of homeostasis can be reached for a healthy and vibrant body. Namaste-the ability to heal in me, is the same ability to heal in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - MY BODY IS RESPONDING</image:title>
      <image:caption>What happens when you wake up at 5am to the sound of peacocks outside the window and are doing yoga by 6:00am? Your body starts responding to your commitment to it. Yes! I have spent the past 9 days doing one and a half hours of yoga at sunrise and one and a half our hours at sunset. I have had multiple daily treatments to address my allergy problems and I’m astonished at what is happening. My body is listening and loving my dedication! Today is my ninth day of treatments at the IAIM Health Center in Bangalore, India. It’s an Ayurvedic center which uses allopathic diagnostic devices along with the Ayurvedic protocol. The result is incredible. I arrived here on February 9th at 6am and by 12pm I had already had consultations with two doctors and started receiving multiple Ayurvedic treatments on that day. The results have been astounding. The reason I came was for allergies, which were really having a detrimental effect on my health. But in treating my body as a whole, more than my allergies have been addressed. They are aware of my success in overcoming MS, but can see the inflammation in my body and have not only been successful in treating it, but have raised the vitality level in my body in a significant way. All this has been done in just nine days. If my Internet cooperates, I will be sharing with you in the next few days, some of treatments that I have been having and some of the amazing things that are being done here. I am excited to share this with you! Namaste-the ability to heal in me, is the same ability to heal in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT</image:title>
      <image:caption>During our yoga session this morning Swami Mahesh gave us a gift for us to contemplate. I am sure it applies to all of us. Some us may be aware of it happening and some of us may not. But either way it is a very good reminder on how we tend to live our lives. I leave this with you for your contemplation. “We spend our lives doubting our faith But We fully spend our lives having faith in our doubts.” On our healing journeys we have to be very still in our faith, with not a shadow of a doubt. In that stillness there will be no need to buy into all our fears and our doubts. Don’t let your doubts be your reality.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - A ROOM WITH A VIEW</image:title>
      <image:caption>So after years of wanting to go to India for an Ayurveda yoga retreat, I have finally found myself in Bengaluru, India. I was looking out the window of my room. The door was open and I was listening to a beautiful Indian tune playing softly in the background, coming from outside. An overwhelming feeling of gratitude overcame me. It had not really sunk in that I was here until that moment. I have been here for four days, which seem like four weeks. So much has taken place in the course of that time. I came here with no expectations, just a need to heal. I have managed to overcome MS, but I haven’t been able to get rid of my allergies. I began my journey with MS with traditional medication, but Ayurveda supported the healing process almost right from the beginning. Twenty years have passed since then. Some of the ayurvedic practices have stuck with me, but for the most part, Ayurveda has not been a big part of my life since I healed. Now, I have come full circle. I am back to this science to help me, in gratitude. As I go along, I will be sharing with you my experience. I hope you will join me for the next couple of weeks. It’s my hope that my journey can help not only me, but inspire others to inquire and find out more of what this science has to offer. Namaste-the ability to heal in me, is the same ability to heal in you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The belly breath improves digestion. It massages the internal organs, and as a result, they function in the way they were meant to function-in a healthy manner. In our society many people suffer from constipation due to shallow breathing. Once we begin to breathe through our bellies we begin to have regular bowel movements right away. A healthy digestion paves the way for a healthy immune system.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - THE LYMPHATIC SYSTEM AND YOUR BELLY BREATH</image:title>
      <image:caption>The lymphatic system is the network of vessels through which lymph drains from the tissues into the blood. It has three functions: -To absorb fatty acids and to transport fat, chyle, to the circulatory system -The removal of excess fluids from the body tissues. -The production of immune cells such as antibodies, lymphocytes and monocytes. These functions are key in keeping the balance of the body, and are important in preventing illness and enhancing health. If the lymphatic system becomes sluggish or backs up, it becomes susceptible to bacteria, viruses and other health problems. It is important that the lymph system flow so that the body can be cleansed. That is where the belly breath comes in. The lymphatic system depends on the benefits of breath to keep flowing. When I say breath, I mean, a nourishing full breath; a breath which begins at the belly. The movement of that belly breath increases the circulation of the lymphatic fluid, and in turn keeps the body clean and healthy, and if sick, speeds the recovery after an illness. It’s especially important for anyone with an auto immune disease to keep the lymphatic system in good shape. It’s important for all of us to keep it in good shape to keep our bodies healthy.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - BREATHING AND THE VAGUS NERVE</image:title>
      <image:caption>What is the vagus nerve and why is it important? Let me set the background for the answer. Our autonomic nervous system has two essential parts that regulate the vital functions of our bodies- the sympathetic nervous system and parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system is that part which is responsible for the “flight or fight” response to perceived danger. The parasympathetic nervous system is the part of the nervous system which lowers the heart, regulates digestion and coordinates rest and regeneration and hence the part we can activate through breathing to our body’s advantage. Now for the vagus nerve. It is an extremely important part of the nervous system. It begins at the brain stem and connects the brain to the tongue, pharynx, larynx, vocal chords, heart, lungs liver, stomach, kidneys, spleen, pancreas and intestines and glands throughout the body, through nerve fibers. It influences digestion, hormones and many other aspects of the body. Through slow belly breathing we stimulate the vagus nerve and lower the “flight or fight” response by regulating the heart beats and blood pressure. It has the capability of improving neurogenesis (the process of new neurons being formed in the brain) and repairing brain tissue and regeneration throughout the body. Deep belly breathing is an essential part of maintaining a healthy process of homeostasis or physiological balance within the autonomic nervous system. When we take a belly or diaphragmatic breath we activate the vagus nerve, which triggers relaxation. When we take a deep breath and relax and expand our diaphragms., our vagus nerve is stimulated, and immediately the parasympathetic nervous system is turned on, cortisol levels drop and our brain heals. It is in the relaxation that healing happens. I am not a doctor, but I have spent the better part of twenty years researching and practicing this breath. It is through my own experience that I am writing. It is this breath that helped to bring balance to my body and rid it of symptoms of MS. It is why I’m so passionate about passing the message along. A gift given to me that I can’t keep to myself. Give it a try, what do you have to lose? You have so much to gain.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - HOW THE BREATH CAN HELP US HEAL</image:title>
      <image:caption>When you’re breathing and taking that breath to the belly, you are energizing the belly area. What’s happening is that you’re not only energizing the digestive system, but you’re also energizing the immune system. You are affecting the nervous system and every other system within the body as a result. Here’s the deal, if the body isn’t at rest, the mind will never be at rest. In the same way, if the mind isn’t at rest the body can’t be at rest. The breath facilitates that process. The breath is what brings you that sense of stability, that sense of peace. When you’re taking the breath to the belly, the breath is finally going where it wants to go. Where it would naturally go and the body recognizes that. That is where the body can rest. You are now taking the breath deliberately to the belly and the body recognizes this. The body says “oh wow you‘re giving me what I need.” The body settles down there. And there is this rhythmic breathing that starts happening unintentionally, you don’t need to try to do it, because the body takes you there. So you do this, and now the mind starts thinking “wow this feels really good. I’m feeling a sense of balance and harmony; a connection with this body and how it’s breathing.” I can’t emphasize enough how important it is when the body can finally feel like that. The sense of balance and stability and harmony that happens when you do that, no medication, no exercise, nothing can give the body that in the same way. If you’re on medication it enhances the medication. If you’re exercising it enhances that process., because the body is tuned into what it’s doing in a natural way. You’re allowing the body to be who it wants to be in the same way as when you’re lying down resting. When you’re lying on your back you can experience how your body wants to breathe. As you breathe in, the stomach rises and as you breathe out, the stomach deflates. That is how your body naturally wants to breathe. So what will happen when you’re giving it that throughout the day, all day? Well, what you’re going to have is a body that responds to this in such a way that it wants more of that. What does that mean that it wants more of that? It wants more health. It wants to produce what you’re giving it. You’re making the space for the body to be able to be in its natural state. What’s the natural state of the body? The natural state is health. If you can lead the body to that state where it is most comfortable, where it is in its natural state, then what will happen is that body will start acting in a state of “ease.” And the “dis” will disappear. That is why breathing through the belly is so important and so effective. If you practice, you alone will feel it and I won’t have to tell you that it works. You will feel how the body feels it, the mind feels and they start becoming one unit. They start becoming allies and there is no fear the mind is running off and creating unrest, because it has slowed down along with the body. The two are now becoming synergistic. They’re there for each other, they operate with each other and that’s where you want to go. When the environment is created for health, health happens. I will be covering the chapter on Breath in Transcending MS for the next week or two. I will guide you to learning to breathe through your belly. It is what I learned to do in my process of healing. I believe that it is the most powerful tool we have to create health.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - A SIMPLE BUT POWERFUL WORD</image:title>
      <image:caption>I received lovely gifts this Christmas. All with beautiful sentiments of their own. But this pot has given me a lot to ponder and contemplate. It is a beautiful, simple hand made pot. The tag attached is the potters card- “Sincere Pottery.“ Inside the card is this: “The word SINCERE is made up of two latin words. SIN meaning without and CERE meaning wax. Potters in antiquity would make their wares with this word to distinguish themselves from disreputable vendors who used wax to fill cracks and voids in imperfect vessels. In use, the wax would melt out, rendering the pottery useless. Well-crafted work was therefore “sincere.” I read this once. Then I went back to it, again and again since Christmas Eve. It struck a chord with me. There is something in that description which made me think of my life and those people who I value most in my life. The common thread in all of them would be “sincere.” Those who I value, with whom I have been able to open my heart and with whom I feel at peace, are those who have exemplified that word. They are “sincere.” In order to be “sincere” we must speak our truths, and those would be the truths which come from our hearts. It is in those truths that we find safety and strength. Not in the perfection or lack of imperfections but in the beauty of the truth. Simply stated, it is that which inevitably connects us at our hearts. Be “sincere” and life will be “sincere” with you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - 31 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>TRIGÉSIMO PRIMER DÍA- Este es nuestro último día. Para aquel que estuvo conmigo todos los días, espero haberte hecho justicia. Para aquel que entró y salió aquí y allá, se que los momentos en que entraste fueron los momentos que eran los momentos justos y espero que hayas recibido lo que necesitabas. Le doy las gracias a todos por haber sido parte de esta jornada conmigo. Nuestras vidas están hechas de momentos. Para de verdad vivir y apreciar esta vida, necesitamos estar conscientes de esos momentos. Suelta el pasado sin sentido de culpa, planea para el futuro con alegría y vive el momento presente estando genuinamente presente y con agradecimiento. Acepta y suelta toda expectativa. Suelta las “4 c’s”-comparar, quejar, controlar y criticar (con una q en español en vez de c). Y en su lugar vive con la “C” mayúscula-Compasión. Haz esto tanto para ti como para todos los seres a tu alrededor. Da gracias por ti y el ser que eres y vive en ese agradecimiento en un estado genuino al eliminar “debería” de tu vocabulario. Y lo más importante de todo, hagas lo que hagas, hazlo de todo corazón Hoy, vamos a sentarnos juntos como lo hemos hecho anteriormente una vez. Toma tus 10 respiraciones en un sitio que sea lo más tranquilo y sereno posible. De allí cierra los ojos y haz la siguiente meditación. Primero visualízate a ti mismo parado frente a ti y dite las siguientes palabras en voz alta. Te deseo que seas saludable y fuerte. Te deseo que tengas paz en la mente, el cuerpo y el corazón. Te deseo que seas amado y que ames con el corazón abierto. Te deseo que tengas balance, harmonía y bienestar en todo lo que hagas. Te deseo que tu luz brille intensamente. Ahora, visualiza a uno de tus seres queridos parado frente a ti y repite las mismas palabras hacia el o ella Después, visualiza a alguien que no conozcas muy bien parado frente a ti y haz lo mismo. Ahora, visualiza a alguien que no te cae bien. parado frente a ti y deséale bien y repite las mismas palabras. Por último, visualiza nuestro planeta y a todas estas personas y al resto de los seres que viven por todo el planeta y repite las palabras o desea para nosotros lo que te gustaría ver. Dedícate plenamente a esta meditación. Al terminar, siéntate en silencio por algunos minutos antes de pararte. Disfruta tu día… Hoy reflexiona sobre el pasado pero no te arrepientas. Cada decisión que haz tomado te ha llevado a este momento en el tiempo. Lo que percibimos como errores son lecciones. Repasa tu vida con agradecimiento y pasa el día con conciencia. Esta noche, toma 1 respiración en agradecimiento al llevarte al sueño sabiendo que haz terminado esta jornada hacia la paz con conciencia de este momento y esta respiración y todos los momentos por venir. Que duermas bien… Namaste-la luz del amor que brilla intensamente en mí, es la misma luz del amor que brilla intensamente en ti.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - DECEMBER 31ST</image:title>
      <image:caption>31st day- Today is our last day. For those of you who were with me every day, I hope I did you justice. For those who popped in and out, I know that you popped in exactly when you needed it and I hope you received what you needed. I thank you all for being part of this journey. Our lives are made up of moments. In order to truly live and appreciate this life, we need to be in those moments. Release the past without guilt, plan for the future with joy, and live the present moment with genuine presence and gratitude. Accept, and let go of expecting. Release the 4 "c's"-comparison, complaint, control, and criticism, and instead embrace the big "C"-compassion. Do this for yourself and all those around you. Be grateful for you and who you are and live through that gratitude in a genuine state, as you take "should" out of your vocabulary. And most of all, no matter what you do, do it from your heart. Today, let's sit together as we have done once before. Take your ten breaths in as peaceful and serene environment as you can. Then close your eyes and do the following meditation. First visualize yourself and say silently or out loud- May you be healthy and strong. May you have peace in your mind, body and heart. May you be loved and love with an open heart. May you have balance, harmony and ease in everything you do. May your light shine brightly. Secondly, visualize a loved one and repeat those words or similar sentiments in your own words. Thirdly visualize someone you don't know very well and do the same. After that visualize someone you don't like and wish them well in the same way. Lastly, visualize our planet and all of these people and the rest of the beings all over the world and either repeat the words or wish for us what you would like to see. Fully invest yourself in this meditation. Then, sit quietly for a few minutes before you get up. Enjoy your day... Today is the last day of the year. Reflect but don't regret. Every decision you have made has brought you to this moment in time. What we perceive as mistakes, are lessons. Review your year in gratitude and move through today with awareness. Tonight, take 1 breath in gratitude as you're easing yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you are beginning the new year with awareness of this moment and breath and all moments to come. Sweet dreams... Namaste- the light of love which shines brightly in me, is the same loving bright light which shines in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - 30 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>TRIGÉSIMO DÍA- Hablamos un poquito sobre el estar en el momento, y no puedo dejar que te vayas sin guiarte en el proceso de vivir en el momento. Nuestras vidas, literalmente, están hechas de momentos. Cuando termines de leer esta oración un momento ha pasado. La manera en que escogemos vivir nuestros momentos, y aún mas importante, como escogemos ser parte de esos momentos hace toda la diferencia en el significado de nuestras vidas. Piensa en cuales son tus pensamientos en un día cualquiera. La mayoría son en lo que va a pasar o lo que ya pasó. Casi nunca se tratan completamente sobre lo que estamos haciendo en algún momento, estando completamente conscientes del momento. En este momento estás seguro y haz comido y seguramente estás sentado de manera muy cómoda. Da gracias. Antes de empezar hoy tus respiraciones, quisiera que te sientes con la espalda recta, el cuello recto y las manos en las piernas, la palma derecha sosteniendo la palma izquierda con las palmas hacia el cielo y los dedos pulgares tocando gentilmente y los ojos cerrados. Toma tres respiraciones a su ritmo natural. Empieza a enfocarte en el suelo bajo ti, el espacio a tu alrededor y donde estás en relación a todas las cosas a tu alrededor. Aunque tienes los ojos cerrados, repasa la habitación donde estás y toma nota de donde está todo. Date cuenta de lo seguro que estás. Date cuenta de que en este momento no tienes que preocuparte por nada. En este momento en el tiempo son solamente tú y tu respiración. Comienza el proceso de tus 10 respiraciones y a medida que inhales, inhala por la nariz y suelta la respiración por los labios. Ahora cambia tu enfoque a tu corazón, y siente la espiración fluyendo por tu corazón. Mientras hagas esto, está consciente de este momento en el tiempo. Date cuenta del regalo que es este momento en el tiempo. Date cuenta que cada respiración es un momento en el tiempo que es valioso e importante por su propio mérito. Solo hazte consciente de justo ahora. Hazte solamente consciente de estar vivo y respirando y seguro justo ahora, en este momento en el tiempo. Al terminar tus respiraciones quédate sentado por un tiempo en silencio. Da gracias. Disfruta tu día… Hoy, cuando te laves las manos enfócate en los momentos que pases lavándote las manos. Enfoca en como se siente el jabón en tu piel; cual es la temperatura del agua y como se siente el agua al pasar por las manos lavando el jabón de tu piel. A medida que te seques las manos toma consciencia de como se siente la toalla y como se sienten tus músculos al agarrar la toalla. Enfócate en cada paso de lavarte la manos. Hazte consciente del momento en que estás lavándote las manos y todos los músculos y los movimientos que se requieren para hacerlo. Si lo puedes hacer con los ojos cerrados te dará una experiencia más profunda. Haz esto cada vez que te laves las manos hoy. Esta noche siéntate de la misma manera en que lo hiciste esta mañana. Trae tu atención a “justo ahora”, al momento presente y practica tus 10 respiraciones con consciencia plena de como se siente tu cuerpo con cada respiración. Siente la experiencia que siente tu corazón cuando la energía fluye por él, y como se siente tu mente al tener la experiencia de todos tus sentidos. Da gracias. Haz pasado hoy por momentos estando completamente presente en “justo ahora”. Ese momento que es “justo ahora” es lo único que tenemos. No permitas que se te vayan en “lo que fue” o “lo que tal vez pase”. Lo que está hecho hecho está, y el pasado ya pasó. El futuro es tuyo para tener y no tiene caso preocuparte por cosas que lo mas seguro nunca ocurrirán. Enfócate en lo que tienes “just ahora,” en este momento, no en lo que no tienes. Es necesario que sepas que estás exactamente donde tienes que estar en este momento y en cualquier momento en el tiempo. Llévate al sueño sabiendo que el momento presente es tuyo y que por lo tanto, eres rico. Da gracias por este momento en el tiempo. Que duermas bien… Namaste-la belleza de mis momentos, es la misma belleza que tienen tus momentos</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - DECEMBER 30TH</image:title>
      <image:caption>30th day- We touched a little on being in the moment, and I can't let you go without guiding you through the process of living the moment. Our life is made of moments, literally. As you finished reading this sentence a moment has passed. How we choose to spend our moments, and more importantly, how we choose to be part of our moments makes all the difference in the meaning of our lives. Think about your thoughts in any given day. A large part of them are thoughts of what will happen or what did happen. Seldom are they completely related to what you are doing at any given moment with complete awareness. At this moment in time you are safe and fed and probably sitting comfortably. Be grateful. Enjoy your day... Before you begin your breaths today, I would like you to sit with your back straight, neck straight and hands in your lap with the right palm supporting the left palm and the thumbs gently touching each other. Take a few breaths with your own natural rhythm. Begin to focus on the ground below you, the space around you and where you are in relation to everything around you. Even though your eyes are closed, scan the room you are in and know where everything is. Be aware of how safe you are. Be aware that at this moment in time you have nothing to worry about. At this moment in time it is just you and your breath. Begin your ten breath process and as you breathe in, breathe in through your nose and breathe out through your lips. Then shift your focus to your heart and feel the breath flowing through your heart. As you are doing this, be aware of this moment in time. Be aware of the gift of this moment in time. Be aware that each breath is a moment of time which is precious and important in it's own right. Only be aware of "now". Only be aware of being alive and breathing and safe "now", in this moment in time. When you have finished your breaths, allow some time to sit in silence. Be grateful Enjoy your day... Today, when you wash your hands focus on the moments you are spending washing your hands. Focus on how the soap feels on your skin; what the water temperature is and how it feels as it washes the soap off your skin. As you dry your hands be aware of how the towel feels and how your muscles feel holding the towel. Focus on every part of washing your hands. Be conscious of the present moment in washing your hands and all the movements and muscles it takes to do so. If you can do it with your eyes closed it will add extra depth to your experience. Do this every time you wash your hands today. Tonight sit in the same way you did this morning. Bring your attention to "now", to the present moment and practice your ten breaths with full awareness of how your body feels with every breath. Experience how your heart feels as the energy flows through it and how your mind feels experiencing all your senses. Be grateful You have spent moments today being completely present in the "now". "Now" is all we have. Don't let it get away from you in the "what was" or "what might be". What's done is done and the past is gone. The future is yours to have and there is no use worrying about things which will most likely never happen. Focus on what you have "now", not what you don't have. Know that you are exactly where you need to be at this and at any given moment in time. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that the present moment is yours and you are rich because of it. Be grateful for this moment in time. Sweet dreams... Namaste- the beauty of my moments is the same beauty your moments hold.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - 29 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>VIGÉSIMO NOVENO DÍA- Haz estado respirando por el corazón, y espero hayas podido sentir el amor infinito que existe en ti. Continúa haciéndolo y sentirás el sentido de expansión sin ningún esfuerzo. Llevemos la respiración un poco más allá hoy. Siéntate con la espalda recta, el cuello recto y los ojos gentilmente cerrados. Pon las palmas de las manos en las piernas con la palma izquierda en la palma derecha y los dedos pulgares tocando gentilmente. Al respirar, toma la respiración por la nariz y al soltar la respiración suéltala por los labios. No trates de controlar la respiración, deja que fluya relajada. Ahora, quiero que visualizes, y no solo mentalmente, pero quiero que “sientas” la respiración entrando por tu corazón cuando inhales, al soltar la respiración, siéntela saliendo por tu corazón. Continúa respirando por tu corazón y siente como fluye continuamente la energía por tu corazón. Al inhalar toma la respiración con agradecimiento y al soltar la respiración hazlo con agradecimiento.. Al inhalar, piensa en alguien por quien estas agradecida, al soltar la respiración siente como compartes tu agradecimiento con esa persona, con esa respiración. Al continuar respirando, puedes incluir a otras personas por las cuales estas agradecida y haz lo mismo visualizándolos a ellos. Si te provoca tomar mas de 10 respiraciones hoy, hazlo. A medida que termines tus respiraciones, visualiza darte esas respiraciones a ti y el el bello ser que eres, con agradecimiento y con compasión. Siente la alegría y el bienestar que viene con permitir que sientas ese agradecimiento. Quédate sentada en silencio con los ojos cerrados una vez que que hayas terminado y permite que el proceso se asiente en cada célula de tu cuerpo y tu mete. No hay ningún gol Solo el ser. Lleva el agradecimiento al lugar que le corresponde en tu corazón y da un paso atrás y observa la magia que sucede. Disfruta tu día… Hoy encuentra por lo menos tres momentos en los cuales estés agradecida. Si piensas que no tienes nada por lo cual estas agradecida, continúa buscando durante tu día hasta que encuentre ese momento. Pero no pares ahí. Continúa buscando. No es el agradecimiento que más importa, es la búsqueda de esos momentos que hace la diferencia. Es un cambio real en perspectiva cuando tu corazón y tu mente se ponen de acuerdo para pasar el día buscando y encontrando aquello por lo cual se agradece. Sin darte cuenta, llegará el momento en que esa va a ser tu naturaleza. A donde llevamos nuestro enfoque es a donde va nuestra energía. Si el enfoque es uno de agradecimiento, el corazón y la mente se ocuparán en eso. Guíalos. Esta noche espero que tengas el corazón tan lleno que vas a tomar tus 10 respiraciones sintiéndote integro. Permite que ocurran espontáneamente y observa la diferencia que ese enfoque hizo hoy en tu vida. Inhalar con agradecimiento significa que estás viviendo en agradecimiento. Llévate al sueño sabiendo que haz descubierto el lugar en tu corazón y tu mente donde el agradecimiento prospera. Que duermas bien. Namaste-el lugar de agradecimiento en mi, es el mismo lugar de agradecimiento en ti.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - DECEMBER 29TH</image:title>
      <image:caption>29th DAY- You have been breathing through your heart and I hope you were able to feel the infinite love within you. Continue to do so and you will feel the expansion happen without any effort. Let's take your breath work a little further today. Sit with your back straight, your neck straight and your eyes gently closed. Place your palms in your lap with the right palm supporting the left palm and the thumbs gently touching each other. As you breathe in, breathe in through your nose and as you breathe out, breathe out through your lips. Don't try to control the breath, just let it flow with ease. Now, I want you to visualize and not just in your mind's eye, but "feel" the breath coming in though your heart as you're breathing in and as you're breathing out, feel it leaving through your heart. Continue to breathe through your heart and feel the continuous flow of energy passing through your heart. As you breathe in, breathe in with gratitude and as you breathe out, do so with gratitude. As you breathe in, think of someone you are grateful for and as you breathe out feel yourself sharing your gratitude with them with the breath out. As you continue to breathe, feel free to bring other people for whom you are grateful to mind and do the same with them in mind. If you feel like having more than 10 breaths today, please do so. As you finish, visualize those breaths for you and the beautiful being you are, with gratitude and with compassion. Feel the joy and ease that comes with allowing yourself to be grateful. Sit silently with your eyes closed once you're finished and allow the process to settle in every cell of your body and mind. There is no goal here. Just be. Bring gratitude to it's rightful place in your heart and stand back and watch magic happen. Today find at least three moments in which to be grateful. If you think you have nothing to be grateful for, continue your search throughout your day until you find that moment. Don't stop there. Continue your search. It's not gratitude that matters most; it's the searching for it that makes the difference. It's a real shift in perspective when your heart and mind come together to go through the day searching and finding that for which to be grateful. Before you know it, it becomes your nature. Where the focus goes is where the energy goes. If the focus is on gratitude then that is where your mind and heart will go. Guide them. Tonight I hope your heart will be so full that you will be taking your ten breaths with a sense of wholeness. Allow them to happen spontaneously and watch the difference that focus made on your life today. Breathing in gratitude means you are living in gratitude. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you have uncovered that place within your heart and mind where gratitude thrives. Sweet dreams... Namaste- the place of gratitude within me, is the same place of gratitude within you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - 28 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>VIGÉSIMO OCTAVO DÍA- Estoy escribiendo esto hoy y estoy pensando en todos los procesos por los que hemos pasado. He tratado de darte una perspectiva diferente de una manera diferente. Lo que ha sido constante, que no ha variado, ha sido el tomar el tiempo para tus respiraciones diarias. No puedo darle suficiente énfasis a la importancia de la respiración. Te llevará hacia dentro y te guiará para que encuentres tus propias respuestas cuando las necesites. Hoy, siéntate con la espalda recta, el cuello recto y los ojos cerrados gentilmente. Pon las palmas de las manos en las piernas con la palma izquierda en la palma derecha y los dedos pulgares tocando gentilmente. Al respirar, toma la respiración por la nariz y al soltar la respiración suéltala por los labios. No trates de controlar la respiración, deja que fluya relajada. Ahora, quiero que visualizes, y no solo mentalmente, pero quiero que “sientas” la respiración entrando por tu corazón cuando inhales, y al soltar la respiración, siéntela saliendo por tu corazón. Continúa respirando por tu corazón y siente como fluye continuamente la energía por tu corazón. Al inhalar, toma la respiración con amor y al soltar la respiración comparte ese amor. Al inhalar, piensa en alguien a quien amas y al soltar la respiración siente como compartes tu amor con esa persona, con esa respiración. Al continuar respirando, puedes incluir a otras personas a quien amas y haz lo mismo visualizándolos a ellos. Si tienes ganas de tomar más de 10 respiraciones hoy, hazlo. A medida que termines tus respiraciones, visualiza darte esas respiraciones a ti con amor y con compasión. Siente la paz y el balance que viene con permitir que sientas ese amor. Quédate sentado en silencio con los ojos cerrados una vez que hayas terminado y permite que el proceso se asiente en cada célula de tu cuerpo y tu mente. No hay ningún gol. Solo el ser. Disfruta tu día… En algún momento durante el día hoy, respira por el corazón. No tienes que cerrar los ojos, si no es posible. Esta noche, date cuenta de como te ha hecho sentir el respirar por el corazón los últimos dos días. En agradecimiento y con toda intención, practica tus respiraciones de la misma manera en que lo hiciste esta mañana. Llévate al sueño sabiendo que amas y que eres amado. Que duermas bien… Namaste-el amor que reside en mi corazón, es el mismo amor que reside en el tuyo.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - DECEMBER 28TH</image:title>
      <image:caption>28th DAY- As I'm writing this today I am thinking of all the processes we have been through this month. Each day, I have tried to give you a different perspective in a different way. The one constant that hasn't varied has been taking time for your daily breaths. I can't stress enough the importance of the breath. It will take you within and will guide you to find your own answers as you need them. Today sit with your back straight, your neck straight and your eyes gently closed. Place your palms in your lap with the right palm supporting the left palm and the thumbs gently touching each other. As you breathe in, breathe in through your nose and as you breathe out, breathe our through your lips. Don't try to control the breath, just let it flow with ease. Now, I want you to visualize and not just in your mind's eye, but "feel" the breath coming in though your heart as you're breathing in and as you're breathing out, feel it leaving through your heart. Continue to breathe through your heart and feel the continuous flow of energy passing through your heart. As you breathe in, breathe in with love and as you breathe out share that love. As you breathe in, think of someone you love and as you breathe out feel yourself sharing your love with them with the breath out. As you continue to breathe, feel free to bring other people whom you love to mind and do the same with them in mind. If you feel like having more than 10 breaths today, by all means do so. As you finish your breaths, visualize giving those breaths to yourself in love and with compassion. Feel the peace and balance that comes with allowing yourself to feel that love. Sit silently with your eyes closed once you're finished and allow the process to settle in every cell of your body and mind. There is no goal here. Just be. Enjoy your day... Some time during the day today, breathe through your heart. You don't have to close your eyes, if it's not possible to do so. Tonight, be aware of how breathing through your heart has made you feel for the past two days. In gratitude and with full intention practice your ten breaths in the same way you did this morning. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you love and you are loved. Sweet dreams... Namaste- the love that lies in my heart, is the same love which lies in yours.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - 27 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>VIGESIMO SÉPTIMO DÍA Mientras te estas preparando para tomar tus 10 respiraciones esta mañana, siéntate en silencio y está consciente de tus pensamientos. No trates de cambiarlos, pero esta consciente de ellos, y observa como van y como vienen. Observa tu mente con la mente que tienes en el corazón, sin juzgar, simplemente ve los pensamientos que van y vienen. A medida que empieces tus respiraciones, visualiza y trata de sentir las respiraciones entrando por tu corazón y cuando exhales siente como las respiraciones salen por tu corazón. Deja que el enfoque pase de los pensamientos a la respiración. Da gracias. Disfruta tu día… Toma tiempo para estar con tus pensamientos durante el día. Simplemente obsérvalos de la manera en que lo hiciste esta mañana. Mientras los observas, trata de no juzgarlos, solo observa como van y vienen. Date cuenta que una vez que dejas de juzgarlos, y observas como si fueras una tercera persona, tus pensamientos dejan de tener efecto en ti. Toma un paso mas y escoge cambiar tu perspectiva de un pensamiento que te esté causando angustia. Cambiar de perspectiva sin juzgar te liberará de expectativas o preocupaciones y te permitirá aceptar las cosas como son, de una manera que tal vez no lo habrías hecho anteriormente. Al momento de soltar tus expectativas emocionales, te liberas tú y liberas a los demás ,y la energía se vuelve simple y libre. Se buena contigo misma esta noche. Cuando te sientes para tomar tus 10 respiraciones, piensa en todos los pensamientos que observaste hoy. Clasifícalos. Ten claro que sin importar la clasificación, todo esta bien. Amate incondicionalmente al pasar por todos esos pensamientos, y de esa manera podrás tener esa experiencia de amor incondicional con otros. Todo comienza desde adentro. Con agradecimiento y compasión por el ser que eres, comienza tus 10 espiraciones y visualiza la inhalación por tu corazón y a medida que exhales siente la respiración salir por tu corazón. Llévate al sueño sabiendo que tus pensamientos no son quien eres tú y que haz hecho el espacio para la compasión y el amor. Da gracias. Que duermas bien… Namaste-el amor en mi va mas allá de los pensamientos, de la misma manera que el amor en ti .</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE-DECEMBER 27TH</image:title>
      <image:caption>27th DAY- As you get ready to take your 10 breaths this morning, sit silently and bring your awareness to your thoughts. Don't try to change them, just be aware of them, and observe them as they come and as they go. Observe your mind with the mind in your heart, without judgement, simply watch the thoughts come and go. As you start your breaths, visualize and try to feel the breaths coming in through your heart and as you exhale feel the breaths leaving through your heart. Let the focus go from the thoughts to the breath. Be grateful. Enjoy your day... Take time to be with your thoughts throughout the day. Simply observe them in the way you did this morning. As you observe them, try not to judge them, just watch them as they come and go. Notice how once you drop judgement, and observe as if you are a third person, your thoughts no longer have an effect on you. Take it a step further and choose to change your perspective on a thought which might be causing you distress. Shifting perspective without judgement will free you of any expectation or worries and allow you to accept what is, in a way you may not have before. The moment you release your emotional expectations, you release yourself and others and the energy becomes simple and free. BE KIND TO YOURSELF TONIGHT. As you sit down for your ten breaths, think of all the thoughts you observed today. Label them. Know that no matter what the label is, it's ok. Love yourself unconditionally through those thoughts, and in that way you can experience that unconditional love with others. It all begins from within. In gratitude and compassion for the being that you are, begin your ten breaths and visualize the inhalation through your heart and as you exhale feel the breath leaving through your heart. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that your thoughts are not who you are, and that you have made the space for compassion and love. Be grateful. Sweet dreams... Namaste- the love in me is beyond thoughts, in the same way the love in you is.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNNEY TO PEACE - DECEMBER 26TH</image:title>
      <image:caption>26th DAY- As you sit today for your ten breaths, be aware of receiving the breaths as you're inhaling and also be aware of sharing the breaths as you're exhaling. Practice receiving and giving your breaths with a full heart. Enjoy your day... The cycle of breathing is one of giving and receiving of much importance to us, but also to our planet as a whole. Your breath makes a difference to you as you receive and nourish. Without it you couldn't survive. But think of the importance of your exhalation. Without it the plant life around you would not survive. Our interdependence is a vital process of survival through receiving and giving. We have all studied this in school somewhere along the way, but have we realized our true importance in simply breathing? Take moments throughout your day today to be with your breath, knowing the difference the cycle makes; a cycle that would not be possible without you. Go outside and kick off your shoes in the grass, dirt or sand and ground yourself with the earth below you. Feel how much a part of it you are. Be aware of the miracles of life and your part in that. Tonight, go over how your feet felt touching the ground below you, with the knowledge of the connection and the importance of you in this world. While practicing your ten breaths, do so with full awareness of the importance of receiving. In life, without receiving, giving would not be possible; not just in breathing. Unless we are open to receiving we have nothing to give. Invite and accept blessings to fill your being. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you are important to this world and have made the space to for receiving. Sweet dreams... Namaste- the importance of my being, is the same importance of your being.</image:caption>

Con cada respiración deja que el milagro de esas bendiciones estén contigo. Disfruta tu día… Hoy es un día para contar bendiciones. No dejes pasar ninguna oportunidad, no importa cuan pequeña sea, ve la bendición que es. Donde ponemos nuestro enfoque, es donde va nuestra energía. Enfócate en los pequeños milagros a tu alrededor y crearás mas milagros. Tan solo tu respiración es un milagro, si te pones a ver lo increíble que es ese proceso. Antes de tomar tus respiraciones esta noche, piensa en tres milagros con que fuiste bendecida hoy. Deja que su belleza se asiente en cada respiración. Llévate al sueño sabiendo que eres bendecida y que has hecho el espacio para mas bendiciones. Que duermas bien… Namaste-el milagro que you soy, es también el milagro que eres tú.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>December 25th- As you sit to practice your 10 breaths this morning, be aware of how blessed you are. think of three reasons you are blessed. With every breath let the miracle of those blessings be with you. Enjoy your day... It's a day of counting blessings. Do not let an opportunity get by you, no matter how small it is, to see the blessing it is. Where the focus goes, is where the energy goes. Focus on those little miracles around you and you will create more miracles. Your breath alone is a form of miracle, if you take the time to really see how incredible the process is. Before taking your ten breaths tonight, think of three different miracles which you were blessed with today. Let the beauty of them settle into every breath. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you are blessed and have made the space for more blessings. Sweet dreams... Namaste-the miracle I am, is also the miracle you are.</image:caption>

May you be loved and love with an open heart. May you have balance, harmony and ease in everything you do. May your light shine brightly. Secondly, visualize a loved one and repeat those words or similar sentiments in your own words. Thirdly visualize someone you don't know very well and do the same.

Fully invest yourself in this meditation. Then, sit quietly for a few minutes before you get up. Enjoy your day. Tonight, follow the same procedure you did this morning; beginning with the breaths and followed by the meditation. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge you have opened your heart fully to this amazing life of ours. Sweet dreams... Namaste-that place of unconditional love in me, is the same place of unconditional love in you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>VIGÉSIMO TERCER DÍA- Un momento de compasión puede cambiar un día entero. Una cuerda de esos momentos puede cambiar el curso de una vida. - Christopher K. Germer Soltamos las 4 c’s. Ahora ha llegado el momento para la “C’ mas importante-Compasión. La compasión es clave para tener una vida completa. Se necesita empezar con la compasión por la compasión por ti misma. Al soltar los pensamientos negativos por nosotros mismos, abrimos la puerta para un lugar de compasión, amor y bondad. Nos abrimos para descansar en nuestros corazones. Es entonces cuando las puertas y las ventanas de nuestros corazones se pueden abrir para tener compasión y amor por los que nos rodean. Somos completos… A medida que comiences tus 10 respiraciones hoy, piensa en 3 maneras en que vas a tener compasión contigo misma. A medida que respires permite que tu intensión se asiente en las respiraciones y en cada célula de tu cuerpo. Disfruta tu día… Esta consciente de tu intensión de tener compasión para contigo, y haste presente en hacerlo hoy. Esta noche, haz revisión del día mentalmente. Repasa como te sentiste al tener compasión para contigo misma. Deja que ese sentimiento se asiente en tu corazón. A medida que tomes tus respiraciones, inhala con agradecimiento y al soltar las respiraciones, exhala con amor. Deja que solo esos dos pensamientos estén contigo mientras respires. Llévate al sueño sabiendo que haz abierto un espacio para cuidarte, alimentarte y amarte a ti misma incondicionalmente; con compasión. Que duermas bien… Namaste-el lugar para la compasión en mi, es también el lugar para la compasión en ti.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>23rd DAY- A moment of self-compassion can change your entire day. A string of such moments can change the course of your life.-Christopher K. Germer We had the 4 C's to release. Now it's time for the C to keep always-Compassion. Compassion is key to leading a complete life. It needs to start with compassion for yourself. In releasing all the negative chatter for ourselves, we open the door to a place of compassion, love and kindness. We open ourselves to rest in our hearts. Then the doors and windows of our hearts can open to compassion and love for those around us. We are complete... As you begin your ten breaths today, think of 3 ways in which you will be compassionate with yourself. As you perform your breaths allow your intention to settle into the breaths and every cell of your body. Enjoy your day... Be aware of your intention to be compassionate with yourself and be mindful of doing so today. Tonight, go over your day in your mind. Go over how it felt to be compassionate with yourself. Let that feeling settle in your heart. As you take your breaths, breathe in with gratitude and as you breathe out, breathe out with love. Let only those thoughts be with you as you take your breaths. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you have opened a space to take care, nourish and love yourself unconditionally; with compassion. Sweet dreams... Namaste-the place for compassion in me, is also the place for compassion in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - 22 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>VIGESIMO SEGUNDO DÍA- Continúa con tus 10 respiraciones en la mañana. Antes de comenzarlas, esta consciente de que todo aquel con quien te tropezaste ayer, estaba haciendo lo mejor que podía, de la mejor manera que sabía hacerlo. Incluyéndote a ti. A medida que respires, da gracias por la persona que eres y por donde estas. Eres una bendición. Disfruta tu día… Hay alguien con quien no has hablado porque han tenido un desacuerdo? Te gustaría hablarle? Si es así, es hora de que lo hagas. Llámale y extiende tu mano en amistad. Acuérdate que el guardar rencor solo daña a la persona que lo esta guardando. Trata de reconciliar la amistad hoy y veras lo liviano que se sentirán tú y ellos. Hazlo con amor y no con miedo. Si pudiste reconciliar la amistad deja que ese sentimiento de amor se asiente en cada una de las células de tu cuerpo a medida que tomes tus respiraciones esta noche. Si no lo pudiste hacer, mentalmente di las palabras que hubieras dicho, si hubieses tenido la oportunidad. Llévate al sueño sabiendo que te haz abierto un espacio de amor para otra persona. Al hacer eso haz abierto un espacio de serenidad para ti. Que duermas bien… Namaste-la luz que brilla en mi es la misma luz que brilla en ti.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - DECEMBER 22nd</image:title>
      <image:caption>22nd DAY- Continue with your 10 breaths this morning. Before you start them, know that all who you met yesterday were doing the best they could, in the best way they knew how. Including you. As you breathe, give thanks for who you are and where you are. You are blessed. Enjoy your day... Is there someone that you haven't talked to because you had a falling out? Would you like to talk to them? If so, it's time to mend fences. Call them and extend your hand in friendship. Remember that holding on to grudges only hurts the person holding them. Try to mend a friendship fence today, and feel the lightness set in for you and them. Come from a place of love and not of fear. If you were able to mend a fence of friendship let that feeling of love settle in to every cell of your body as you take your ten breaths tonight. If your weren't able to, mentally speak the words you would have said, if you had the chance. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you have opened a space of love for someone else. In doing so you have opened a place of serenity for yourself. Sweet dreams... Namaste - the light which shines in me is also the light that shines in you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>VIGÉSIMO PRIMER DÍA- Piensa en tres personas que han tenido una gran influencia en tu vida, y a quien les estas muy agradecida. Piensa en las diferentes maneras en que te influenciaron. A medida que tomes tus respiraciones deja que el agradecimiento se asiente en cada una de tus respiraciones. Toma las respiraciones sin esfuerzo. Disfruta tu día… Toma un paso más y escribe una carta de agradecimiento a una de esas personas. Dile como te ha influenciado y el impacto que ha tenido en tu vida. Habla de corazón. Esto es especialmente poderoso si le escribes a alguien a quien sientas que no has agradecido de manera correcta. Le puedes enviar la carta por correo postal o mejor aun, le puedes llamar y leérsela. Deja que el amor que sientes por ellos sea expresado en agradecimiento. Antes de comenzar tus 10 respiraciones esta noche, deja que el amor y el agradecimiento que expresaste en esa carta te llene el corazón. Siente el poder del amor y el agradecimiento cuando van juntos. No hay nada sin igual. Llévate al sueño sabiendo que has abierto el espacio para el amor en tu vida hoy. Da gracias. Que duermas bien… Namaste-el amor que esta en mi, es el amor que esta en ti.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>21st DAY- Think of three people who have had a big influence in your life, and to whom you are very grateful. Think of the ways in which they influenced you. As you take your ten breaths let gratitude settle in your every breath. Take your breaths effortlessly. Enjoy your day... Go a step further and write a gratitude letter to one of those people. Tell them how they have influenced you and how that has affected your life. Speak from your heart. This is especially powerful if it is written to someone whom you don't think you have thanked properly. Then either mail the letter to them, or even better, call them and read it to them. Let the love for them be expressed in gratitude. Before you begin your ten breaths tonight, let the love and gratitude expressed in that letter fill you heart. Feel the power of love and gratitude as they go hand in hand. There is nothing that can match it. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you have opened the space for love in your life today. Be grateful. Sweet dreams… Namaste-the love which is in me, is the love which is in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIAS LA PAZ - 20 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>VIGÉSIMO DÍA- Necesito tomar un momento para hablar sobre lo que has estado haciendo los últimos 4 días. Has descubierto las “4 c’s” - comparar, quejar, controlar y criticar. Espero que hayas tomado en serio el impacto negativo que tienen en tu vida. El estar consiente de ellas en tu desenvolvimiento día a día tendrá un efecto muy bello en tu vida. Trata de soltarlas lo más que puedas. Habrán días cuando será más fácil que otros. Y está bien. El primer paso esta en darse cuenta de ellas y el impacto que tienen en tu vida. Déjate llevar por tu corazón y no el miedo a no tener, o a no ser suficiente. Ser el mejor amigo de todos no es lo importante. El saber que somos todos diferentes y respetar las diferencias es clave. Por otra parte, ser tu mejor amigo a ti mismo es muy importante y es clave. Sigue tu intuición y haz aquello que te complete y te de paz. Esta mañana deja que tus respiraciones simplemente ocurran con los ojos cerrados. A medida que respires, observa como respira tu cuerpo naturalmente sin ninguna ayuda de tu parte. Siente la libertad que ocurre cuando dejas que la respiración fluya en su estado natural. Date cuenta de como se ha convertido tu respiración en la fuente de tranquilidad en las últimas semanas. Da gracias. Hoy, esta consiente de tu conexión con todo aquel que te encuentres, bien sean extraños o amigos. Antes de decirle una palabra, mentalmente di “la luz que brilla en mi es la misma luz que brilla en ti.” Se genuino en pensamiento. Puede que sea la cajera en el mercado o alguien de tu familia. Esta consiente de la conexión. Sabes que estás conectado con cada ser en este planeta. Sabes que el mismo amor que está en ti también está en ellos. Disfruta tu día… Esta noche, creo que cuando hagas revisión de tu día vas a encontrar que fue extraordinario. Repasa el día y como los demás reaccionaron hacia ti hoy después o durante tu mensaje mental para ellos. Cómo te sentiste tú? La diferencia que tu intención tuvo hoy en los demás hizo que la vida a tu alrededor fuese mejor para todos. Deja que tus 10 respiraciones fluyan sin esfuerzo. Llévate hacia el sueño sabiendo que hoy haz abierto un espacio para bienestar en tu vida. Da gracias. Que duermas bien… Namaste - la luz que brilla en mi es la misma luz que brilla en ti.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - DECEMBER 20TH</image:title>
      <image:caption>20th DAY- I have to take a moment to talk about what you've been doing for the past 4 days. You have uncovered the "4 C's" - compare, complain, control and criticize. I hope you take seriously the negative impact they have in your life. Being mindful of them in your day to day dealings will have a beautiful effect on your life. Let go of them as much as you can. Some days will be easier than others. That's ok. The first step is being aware of them and the impact they have on your life. Allow yourself to come from your heart and not from a place of fear of lacking. Being everyone's best friend is not the point. Knowing that we are all different and respecting these differences is the key. On the other hand, being your own best friend is the point and even more key. Follow your intuition and do what makes you whole and gives you peace. This morning allow your 10 breaths to just happen with your eyes closed. As you're breathing, observe how your body is naturally breathing. Feel the freedom of allowing the breath to flow effortlessly. Be aware of how much your breath has become a source of ease in the past few of weeks. Be grateful. Today, be aware of your connection with everyone you meet, strangers or friends. Before you say anything to them, mentally say "the light which shines in me is the same light which shines in you". Be genuine in thought. It might be the checker at the grocery store, or one of your family members. Be aware of that connection. Know that you are connected to every being on this planet. Know that the same love that is you is also them. Enjoy your day... Tonight, I think you will find your day in review will be quite remarkable. Go over your day and how people reacted to you today after or during your mental message to them. How did you feel? The difference your intention made in others today made life around you much better for everyone. Let your ten breaths flow effortlessly. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you have opened the space for ease in your life today. Be grateful. Sweet dreams... Namaste-the light which shines in me is also the light which shines in you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - 19 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>DECIMONOVENO DÍA- Esta mañana deja que tus respiraciones simplemente ocurran con los ojos cerrados. A medida que respires, date cuenta de como respira tu cuerpo naturalmente sin ninguna ayuda de tu parte. Siente la libertad que ocurre cuando dejas que la respiración fluya en su estado natural. Date cuenta de como se ha convertido tu respiración en la fuente de tranquilidad en las últimas dos semanas. Da gracias. Te haz familiarizado con las palabras “comparar,” “quejar,” y “controlar.” La ultima de las 4 “c’s” es “criticar.” Hoy date cuenta de cualquier critica que te venga a la mente. Date cuenta de la necesidad de criticar a los demás. Cuando esto pase, cambie tus pensamientos. Deliberadamente aléjate de eso y lleva tus pensamientos para encontrar lo bueno, no lo malo. Construye, no destruyas. Está en ti escoger. Escoge el vivir con amor y no con miedo a no tener suficiente. Tú, y todos a tu alrededor están haciendo lo mejor que pueden. Se bondadoso. Y sobre todo ten agradecimiento. Disfruta tu día… Esta noche, antes de que comiences tus 10 respiraciones, toma un momento para acordarte de una instancia en la cual te frenaste de criticar, y cambiaste tus pensamientos y tu actitud. Como se sintió eso ? El amor que viene cuando nos permitimos y permitimos a los demás ser exactamente quienes son, cambiará tu perspectiva a lo importante que es ser genuino. Llévate hacia el sueño sabiendo que haz abierto el espacio para el amor en tu vida hoy. Agradece. Que duermas bien…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>19th DAY- This morning allow your 10 breaths to just happen with your eyes closed. As you're breathing, observe how your body is naturally breathing without any guidance whatsoever. Feel the freedom in letting the breaths flow in their natural state. Be aware of how much your breath has become a source of ease in the past couple of weeks. Be grateful. You have become familiar with "compare", "complain" and "control". The last of the 4 "c's" is "criticize". Today be aware of any criticism which comes up in your mind. Be aware of any need to criticize yourself or others. When this happens, shift your thoughts. Deliberately turn away from that and turn your thoughts toward finding the good instead of the bad. Build up, don't tear down. You have a choice. Exercise that choice in coming from a place of love instead of fear of lacking. You and everyone around you are doing the best you can. Be kind. Above all be grateful. Enjoy your day… Tonight, before you begin your 10 breaths, take a moment to recall an instance in which you refrained from criticizing and shifted your thoughts and attitude. How did it feel? The love that comes with allowing yourself and others to be just the way they/you are, will shift your perspective to the importance of being genuine. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you have opened the space for love in your life today. Be grateful. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>DECIMOCTAVO DÍA- Continuamos para la tercera “c” que es problemática para la mente. Control. Hoy, deja que tus 10 respiraciones simplemente ocurran con los ojos cerrados. A medida que respires , observa como respira tu cuerpo naturalmente sin que tú lo guíes. Siente la libertad en dejar que las respiraciones ocurran en su estado natural. Disfruta tu día… El intentar controlar situaciones y personas puede ser la causa de estrés. Hoy, date cuenta de tu necesidad por controlar. Ábrete a la manera en que otras personas piensen de como una situación, proyecto o un problema pueda ser hecho o resuelto. Deja que las personas cercanas a ti atraviesen su día hoy, sin que tú le digas como hacerlo. Cuando sientas la necesidad de “tomar control” or “dar consejo”, no lo hagas, y cambia tus pensamientos para dar espacio para que los demás crezcan. Observa como florecen y siente la libertad que no solo le estas dando q ellos, si no a ti también. Antes de comenzar tu 10 respiraciones esta noche, toma un momento para acordarte de un momento en el cual soltaste tu necesidad de controlar en el día de hoy. Cómo te sentiste? La sensación liviana que viene con el dejar a los demás crecer, tendrá un efecto muy bello para todos las personas afectadas. Llévate hacia el sueño sabiendo que haz abierto el espacio para paz en tu vida hoy. Da gracias. Que duermas bien…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>18th DAY- On to the third "C" which troubles the mind. Control. Today, allow your 10 breaths to just happen with your eyes closed. As you're breathing, observe how your body is naturally breathing without any guidance whatsoever. Feel the freedom in letting the breaths flow in their natural state. Enjoy your day... Trying to control situations and people can be a source of stress. Today, be aware of your need to control. Be open to the way other people may think a situation, project or challenge can be performed or resolved. Be open to allowing those close to you to go through their day today, without trying to tell them how. When you feel the need to "take over" or "advise", let it go and shift your thoughts to allowing others to grow. Watch them blossom and feel the freedom it will not only give them, but you as well. Before beginning your 10 breaths tonight, take a moment to recall an instance in which you released your need to control today. How did it feel? The lightness that comes with allowing others to grow will have a very beautiful effect for all involved. Ease yourself to sleep in the knowledge that you have opened the space for peace in your life today. Be grateful. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>DECIMOSÉPTIMO DÍA- Te estas dando cuenta de como te comparas… Ahora, me gustaría que te des cuenta de cuando te quejes; tanto mentalmente como en voz alta. Cuando encuentres que te estas quejando, cambia tus pensamientos. Enfócate en lo que tienes y no en lo que no tienes. Agradece, agradece, agradece. Antes de comenzar tus respiraciones esta mañana, di “gracias” silenciosamente. Recibe tu día con esa palabra. Deja que se asiente en el espacio entere tu inhalación y tu exhalación. Disfruta tu día… Esta noche, piensa en 3 momentos de hoy en los cuales estuviste totalmente presente. A medida que respires, date cuenta y haste presente en ese momento de cada respiración durante las 10 respiraciones. Permite que el agradecimiento te penetre por todo lo que tienes y por todo lo que eres en este momento. Que duermas bien…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>17th DAY- You have become aware of comparing... Now, I would like you to be aware of complaining; mentally as well as out loud. When you find yourself complaining, shift your thoughts. Focus on what you have, not what you don't have. Gratitude, gratitude, gratitude. Before you begin your breaths this morning, say "thank you" silently. Greet today with those words. Let them settle in the space between your inhalations and exhalations. Enjoy your day... Tonight, think of 3 moments today in which you were totally present. As you breathe, be aware of the present moment of each breath during all 10 breaths. Let gratitude settle in for all you have and all you are at this moment in time. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>DECIMOSEXTO DÍA- Aunque pareciera que estoy enfocada e los otros aspectos, por favor ten por seguro lo importante que es que continúes tomándote tu tiempo para tus 10 respiraciones en la mañana y en la noche. Es ese momento con tu respiración, que continuará haciendo la diferencia en ti, sin importar como sean tus días. Hoy en la mañana, antes de comenzar, di “gracias” en voz alta. Deja que el significado de esa palabra se asiente en el espacio enter tus inhalaciones y tus exhalaciones e impregne cada célula de tu cuerpo a medida que tomes tus respiraciones. Disfruta tu día… “Comparar” es la palabra de hoy. A medida que se desenvuelva tu día hoy, date cuenta de cuando compares, mentalmente o en voz alta. Cambia tus pensamientos cuando esto ocurra. Deja que tu excelencia personal se apodere de cualquier pensamiento de comparación. Lo que los demás hagan o tengan, no tiene ningún impacto en ti. Date cuenta de lo que necesitas, no lo que piensas que deberías tener o ser. Vive del corazón, no del temor a no tener, y observa como esa energía te dará lo que tu corazón quiere. Está dispuesta y lista a recibir. Permítete recibir. Esta noche, antes de que comiences tus respiraciones, piensa en 3 cosas por las cuales tu excelencia personal abrió la puerta para que recibieras. De nuevo, en voz alta di “gracias.” Deja que el significado de esa palabra se asiente en el espacio entre tus inhalaciones y tus exhalaciones e impregne cada célula de tu cuerpo a medida que tomes tus respiraciones. Deja que tu sueño sea lleno de agradecimiento y amor por quien eres. Que duermas bien…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>16th day- Although I seem to be focusing on the other aspects of your days, please know how important it is to continue to take the time for your 10 breaths in the morning and at night. It's that moment with the breath, which will continue to make a difference in you, no matter what your days are like. This morning, before you begin, say "thank you" out loud. Let the meaning of those words settle into the space between your inhalations and exhalations and permeate every cell in your body as you take the ten breaths. Enjoy your day... "Compare" is the word for today. As your day unfolds today, catch yourself comparing, mentally as well as out loud. Shift your thoughts when this happens. Let your personal excellence take over any thought of comparing. What other people do or have, is of no consequence to you. Be aware of what you need, not what you think you should have or be. Live from your heart, not from fear of lacking, and watch how that energy will give to you what your heart wants. Be willing and ready to receive it. Allow yourself to receive. Tonight, before you begin your breaths, think of 3 things for which your personal excellence opened the door for you to receive. Again, out loud say "thank you". Let the meaning of those words settle into the space between your inhalations and exhalations and permeate every cell in your body as you take the ten breaths. Let your sleep be filled with gratitude and love for who you are. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>DECIMOCUARTO DÍA - Una semana nueva y un día nuevo. Toma un momento esta mañana y agradece 3 aspectos de ti. No hay respuesta cierta ni equivocada para esto. Es personal, y solo tú sabes cuales son. Entonces, comienza tus 10 respiraciones hoy con agradecimiento por ti y la persona quien eres. A medida que inhales y sueltes la respiración, date cuenta del milagro que es tu cuerpo. Ten muy en cuenta hoy, cualquier momento en el cual te estés criticando a ti misma. Si lo estas haciendo mentalmente, cambia de pensamiento. Si te encuentras haciéndolo en voz alta, cambia de pensamiento. Haz lo posible en ser tan buena contigo misma como lo serías con un niño. No te mereces menos que eso. Disfruta tu día. Esta noche, antes de comenzar tus 10 respiraciones, mentalmente haz revisión de tu día y trae a la mente 3 momentos en los cuales hoy das gracias que tú eres tú. Mientras tomas tus respiraciones, está consciente de reposar en ese agradecimiento y deja que tu cuerpo y tu mente se relajen. Que duermas bien…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>SEPTIMO DÍA Hoy vamos a añadir un paso más a tus respiraciones. Cuando despiertes, toma 10 respiraciones profundas sentado, con la espalda recta. Pon una mano sobre tu pecho y una mano sobre tu abdomen. A medida que inhales por la nariz lentamente, la mano sobre el abdomen debe subir más que la mano sobre el pecho. Al final de tu inhalación, toma una pausa antes de comenzar a soltar la respiración. A medida que sueltes la respiración por los labios, gentilmente mete el abdomen para soltar el aire lo más posible. Enfócate en tu respiración y la belleza de estar vivo hoy. Date cuenta de lo importante que eres. Siente la calma con la cual vas a comenzar el día hoy. Disfruta tu día… Esta noche, antes de acostarte a dormir, haz lo mismo, y a medida que te enfocas en tu respiración , enfoca en la belleza de tu respiración, y con agradecimiento siente la fuerza de la vida dentro de ti. Date cuenta de todos los milagros a los cuales fuiste testigo hoy. Lleva tu cuerpo hacia un estado relajado de agradecimiento. Que duermas bien.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>7th DAY- We are adding one more step to your breaths today. When you wake up, take 10 full breaths sitting up, with your back straight. Put one hand on your chest and one hand on your abdomen. As you inhale slowly through your nose, the hand on the abdomen should rise more than the hand on the chest. At the end of your inhalation, take a moment to pause before you begin your exhalation. As you exhale slowly through your lips, gently bring your abdomen in to exhale as much air as possible. Focus on your breath and the beauty of being alive today. Be aware of how important you are. Feel the calmness with which you will start your day today. Enjoy your day... Tonight, before you go to sleep, do the same, and as you focus on your breath, focus on the beauty of your breath and in gratitude feel the life force within you. Be aware of all the miracles you witnessed today. Ease yourself into a state of relaxation and gratitude. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>6th DAY- The past couple of days have been about making a difference in someone else. Today, take at least 90 minutes for yourself. What would you like to do with those 90 minutes? What would make your heart full? Only you know what that is. It can be as simple as sitting with a cup of tea or coffee on the beach or a park. Be kind to yourself today... Enjoy your day… Also, continue today with your 10 breaths in the morning and your ten breaths in the evening. Let them help you begin your day in peace and end your day with gratitude… Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>5th DAY- Let's lift someone's spirit today. Without going out of your way to do so, say something unexpectedly nice to someone. It may be someone you know and love, or it may be a stranger in a store. But it has to be genuine. Meaning, you must mean it. For example, if you see someone who is wearing a dress you like, tell them how pretty their dress is. If you don't think the dress is pretty, then don't say it. Above all, be genuine in what you say... Enjoy your day… Also continue today with your 10 breaths in the morning and your 10 breaths in the evening. Let them help you begin your day in peace and end your day with gratitude… Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - 5 DE DICIEMBRE</image:title>
      <image:caption>QUINTO DÍA Hoy vamos a subirle el ánimo a alguien. Sin mucho esfuerzo, inesperadamente, dile algo bonita a alguien. Puede ser a alguien que conoces y amas, o puede ser a un extraño. Pero lo cierto es que tiene que ser genuino. Me refiero a que debe ser sincero. Por ejemplo, si ves a alguien que tiene puesto vestido que te gusta, dile lo bonito que te parece su vestido. Si el vestido no te parece bonito, entonces no le digas nada. Por encima de todo, se genuino en lo que digas…. Disfruta tu día. También continúa hoy con tus 10 respiraciones en la mañana y tus 10 respiraciones en la noche. Deja que te ayuden a comenzar tu día con paz y a terminar tu día con agradecimiento. Que duermas bien…</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - JORNADA DE 31 DÍAS HACIA LA PAZ - SEGUNDO DÍA</image:title>
      <image:caption>SEGUNDO DÍA Esta noche, antes de acostarte a dormir, toma 10 respiraciones profundas, sentado con la espalda recta. Pon una mano sobre el pecho y una mano sobre el abdomen. Cuando inhales, la mano sobre el abdomen debería subir más que la mano sobre el pecho. Mientras sueltes la respiración, trata de meter el abdomen lentamente para soltar el aire lo más posible. Enfócate en la respiración, inhalando por la nariz, llevando la respiración al abdomen y soltando la respiración por la boca de manera lenta y sutil. Lleva tu cuerpo hacia un estado relajado. Que duermas bien…</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 31 DAY JOURNEY TO PEACE - 2ND DAY</image:title>
      <image:caption>2nd DAY Tonight, before you go to sleep, take 10 full breaths sitting up, with your back straight. Put one hand on your chest and one hand on your abdomen. As you inhale, the hand on the abdomen should rise more than the hand on the chest. As you exhale, slowly bring your abdomen in to exhale as much air as possible. Focus on the breath at the belly, breathing in through your nose and out through the lips, slowly and gently. Ease yourself into a state of relaxation. Sweet dreams…</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Changes which come through personal excellence come from within; keeping us in a state of evolution and abundance. Changes which come through comparison and competition with others come from the outside; keeping us in a state of lack and hence a place of devolution. Trust your inner voice and allow yourself to strive for what makes you whole and happy. Only you know what that is.</image:caption>
