#holdspaceforyourself

How do you make time and space for yourself? For me it’s a combo of multiple modalities - movement, meditation, gratitude journaling. Sometimes it’s 5 minutes. Sometimes it’s an hour or more. I’m in no way perfect at it and it’s definitely a practice! The important thing is just just giving it a go. 🧘🏻‍♀️✨ It’s Day 6 of the #MakeSpaceForYourself Challenge!! And it’s not too late to join us! This week really couldn't come at a better time, right on schedule to welcome a little self-care as we enter the holiday busyness with a mindful appreciation of each moment. About today's class: This simple meditation 🧘🏻‍♀️ practice uses visualization to create space and joy. The beauty of visualization is that we have the power to use it on and off the mat, anytime, anywhere. When we tend to live in a space of worry or anxiety, visualization is a powerful tool to create space and support. 💫 To sign up for the free #HoldSpaceForYourself Challenge, register via the link in my bio → and follow the rules below! ➢Sign up for your free #YMO trial or login to your account (we’ve extended all free trials through December 19th) ➢Starting 12/13 take 1 class each day from our Weekly Wellness Playlist: “Hold Space for Yourself”.

𝖄𝖔𝖚 𝖜𝖎𝖑𝖑 𝖋𝖎𝖓𝖉 𝖍𝖊𝖆𝖑𝖎𝖓𝖌 𝖎𝖓 𝖞𝖔𝖚𝖗 𝖔𝖜𝖓 𝖊𝖘𝖘𝖊𝖓𝖈𝖊 💜🌊🖤 Last January I had a vivid dream of two orcas in a small pond. It wasn't right, they couldn't breathe. They were so magnificent it was scary. I tried to walk past them but one beached itself and I felt so deeply it wanted to talk to me. I turned and looked into its eyes. "I'm Lost" The broken voice of a child, deep soulful eyes, vulnerable & scared. I promised to help them both & looked to the sky asking for help in returning them to their home. I began a healing journey & this dream revealed the orca was me, my soul. My inner child was asking for help. Calling me to swim deep. When I feel overwhelmed, I go to the water. Surrender to the love of the divine feminine element. Recently, I heard a new depiction of my favorite tarot card, The Star. A naked woman & body of water. "You will find healing in your own essence" There is such grace & power in holding space for yourself. To show yourself unconditional love. To allow yourself to cry, through each tear you release your old story. You rebuild trust with yourself. With the embodiment of love, you return to your soul's essence. You return home. Forgive yourself for abandoning your soul. Affirm I am listening now, I am here, I won't leave you, you're safe to be who you are, I love you in each moment.

LEARN HOW TO STOP TIME & HOLD SPACE FOR YOURSELF "Waking up from a three-day party to find yourself in Amsterdam is just not as fun as it used to be. How do we stay connected, continue to nourish ourselves and get clear on what’s good for us? According to the Native American Shaman, Don Juan, “in order to become a man of knowledge, a warrior-traveller, you will first have to learn to stop the world”. The pressure to be “successful” is huge, so we hop on whole hog — working all hours, filling our faces with screens, packing our heads with noise, closing our ears to silence, consuming crazy amounts of information, processed food, and social media. It’s too much. Sometimes you just gotta make it stop." —Collette Davis ☾ Read more: http://bit.ly/2d4Dx0w #HOLYFIRE #HOLDSPACEFORYOURSELF #STOPTIME #THEURBANHOWL @kayharr73 @ladypantzz @thugunicorn @dharmaunicorn @thematmovement
