Eagle

“I like the name Eagle. Eagle means much to an American Indian…

“The eagle knows the freedom! The eagle knows the flight! The eagle lives where there are only the wind, the sun, mountains, fathomless precipices, and — the freedom!…

“The eagle is born free and dies free! He is born to fly, to live his life soaring over mountains! Uniting his wings with the wind, the eagle gains that power which allows soaring!…

“And when death comes — the eagle… Continue

DAILY QUOTE BY LYNN FISHMAN

GROWTH IS TWO STEPS FORWARD, ONE STEP BACKWARD.

"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations."

Anais Nin.

Daily Quote By Lynn Fishman

TRANSFORM THE FEAR IN YOUR LIFE.

Growing up as the child of parents who were once prisoners of war, fear was an emotion that I clearly understood.
It has been my mission to transmute that fear in my own life. Fear clearly blocks the light from coming through.

"Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live".

why I love yoga

I love yoga, because it loves me. When I breath into a pose, the energy that comes back is regenerative and healing, like love. And so - it is love. It is the attention focused and care given to my body and spirit that returns to me multiplied and metamorphosed. Yoga is the (re)cycling of energy, moving from the point of intention within my distracted monkey mind through the breath, body, emotions and spirit divine; and back again to a more focused state of mind. With each cycle returning a… Continue

Dumb, Insane

The incredibly dumb and insane planet spun, crazily, around and around, over and over and over again ad infinitum, and every time it turned, the contents of millions of boxes of all different kinds of cereal in pantries and cupboards all over the world, shooshed to the top, then to the sides, then to the bottom, then back into the top again with each steaming and dimpled revolution of that tragic and dirt crusted orb. Every six times, a small magical glinting toy surprise wrapped in sugar-dusty… Continue

Trust Unconditional Love

Dear Friends,

We are at a wonderful crossroads of potential right now on our precious planet.

We have within us the balance of love, wisdom and power to bring forth a new reality filled with peace, health, harmony, abundance and genuine joy.

Weekly Tidbit: Opening Your Throat Chakra

Chakras are centers for receiving, processing and transmitting the energies of life, often visualized as spinning vortexes. The throat chakra relates specifically to communication, to speaking and being heard. It is the energetic repository of all the messages we have ever heard about our rights and our abilities to communicate. "Children should be seen and not heard.... What a beautiful voice you have..... I really like talking to you...... You're just shy..... Don't talk back...... Don't say… Continue

On A Wing & A Prayer

The Power of prayer

Prayer can mean different things to different people. Let’s break it down to its basic principles. If you are praying then you are usually asking for assistance (help me) or guidance (show me) with something. This is when you feel that you either don’t have the means or capability to help yourself or see the forest for the trees.

This also means that you are asking someone outside of yourself, whether it is God or angels or ancestors. Prayer doesn’t… Continue

Daily Quote Of The Day By Lynn Fishman

MAKE NOT MISTAKE THERE WILL BE FAILURES ALONG THE WAY, ITS WHAT WE DO AFTERWARDS THAT COUNTS.

"Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it's not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won't. it's whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to… Continue

What is real prayer? Praise to God.

WE NEVER QUITE LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND, BUT RATHER LEARN TO MERGE WHAT IS KNOWN WITH WHAT IS UNKNOWN. IN THIS PROCESS WE PREPARE OUR MIND AND HEREIN LIES OUR POWER.

Origin & Survival of a species

The natural world is filled with thousands and thousands of species of animals and creatures that do not care about what their purpose on our planet is. The simplest and most basic concept that every life-form IS concerned with is…

1. SURVIVAL

That is all that any living being, sentient or stupid, is driven by. Life as we know it – animal or human – revolves around that simple Neanderthal principle. Add any meaning to that existence and you’re thinking like a… Continue
