Its interesting how mudras found their way to me, or vice versa,

And this!

“Today, I want to share with you an important hand posture to help with invasive energies. Remember “invasive” energies aren’t necessary “bad” energies…. they are just energies that are not in alignment with yours. In Spring Forest Qigong Level Two, we teach a simple technique to use for protection… Touch your thumb to your index finger, making a circle (similar to the “okay” sign). Holding this posture keeps your energy from draining when you experience fear. When you are with an angry person or someone who threatens you, holding this posture will cause the energy channels in your body to close so that no energy can be taken out. Quiet your mind when dealing with these people and put loving light around them. This will help you and it will help them. When meditating, I encourage you to hold the protection posture to strengthen your kidney energy after you have had an open hand posture for the first two to three minutes. The reason we do this is because, a open hand”

oday, I want to share with you a important hand posture to help with invasive energies.

Remember “invasive” energies aren’t necessary “bad” energies…. they are just energies that are not in alignment with yours.

In Spring Forest Qigong Level Two, we teach a simple technique to use for protection…

Touch your thumb to your index finger, making a circle (similar to the “okay” sign).

Holding this posture keeps your energy from draining when you experience fear.

When you are with an angry person or someone who threatens you, holding this posture will cause the energy channels in your body to close so that no energy can be taken out.

Quiet your mind when dealing with these people and put loving light around them.

This will help you and it will help them.

When meditating, I encourage you to hold the protection posture to strengthen your kidney energy after you have had an open hand posture for the first two to three minutes.

The reason we do this is because, a open hand allows the energy to flow in and out of the body moving out blockages more easily.

When you’ve done this, then you close the channels with the protection posture to simply collect the beautiful healing energy of the universe.

Many Blessings,

Chunyi Lin”

Finished my ten day fast and was applying oils on myself, when I turned and saw this

Its not how about but ITS TIME to get on something new. Another piece of the sky. A new path, elevating the self to a new plane. Creating a whole new space for the self.

ITS TIME- YES.

Qinzhi woke me up from the (prolonged?) slumber I had been in.

I motivated her to get up to run/walk with us. She woke up late as usual but I convinced her to do the walk slowly.

When we headed to the park, she was all the way behind us.

I asked the daddy to slow down and be with her while I ran. I didn’t want to leave her alone

But the daddy kind of asked where she is and threw a fit.

“If Qinzhi is going to walk like that don’t force her. Let’s just head back.“

He went all the way and Qinzhi obviously was shocked at this sudden onward of lecture

Frozen she stood where she was and took it all

I did kind of the same- with a few worthless- stop it .

Afterwards she walked kind of directionless lifelessly

Yet this all made sense to me. Because Qinzhi is mirroring who else but me.

She was reflecting back to me how I was walking living

So while I coaxed her motivated her coached her, I can’t help but feel like this is for me

Life IS happening for me, showing to me, talking to me.

And I m glad I heard .

Farming by Subtraction

Farming by Subtraction

This one is very beautiful .

“Returning to his hometown in Ehime, Masanobu began to perfect his unique, natural farming method of “no cultivation, no chemical fertilizer, and no weeding,” confronting nature through farming.”

Because we are so distanced from nature, how or what are we to add or act at will?

To taste the fruits of his farming will be magic!

How (?) have we moved ?

Went to bed with a clear sky but rose at 0600 to the Moon and Mars on its left, in a straight line. You probably can’t see Venus but it’s to Mars’s left.

2 days ago, it was just the Moon at 0430 so Mars is on its own at 0630. The Moon would have gone further right then.
.
Just how did we move? But moved and shifted we have. However subtle. We did move.

Did the moon slow down? Has Mars caught up? However whatever, seeing this on Earth is fascinating.

The alignment is fascinating.

And, and, we never will go back (to the old). Any kind of going back is by choice by will of our doing.

Precious and blessed is us with the new in the new that is now, when you are aware and open to it. #thankyou

14 Peaks

14 Peaks

Too many beautiful lines from the soul speaking out from this

Nims completed Project Possible- because so many thought it is impossible—- to summit the 14 world’s tallest mountains that go beyond 8000m, in 6 months 6 days and broke six world records in mountaineering.

This is about inspiring the human race

Don’t be afraid to dream big

Doesn’t matter where you come from. You can show the world, nothing is impossible

One of which is, “ but the biggest strength is —- I have no fear . I m going to go up there and make my own assessment.”

What is it like to have no fear?

Go there —- we all have to.

On the summit, your soul becomes part of the mountain. You come alive

Things went crazy. But I was so focused. Bring it on

Life is absurd but we can fill it with ideas, enthusiasm. You can fill your life with joy.

When you are in the mountains you find out who you really are. Any mistake I make could be death. But when it comes to that moment

You want to survive . You want to live. I climb so that I can live every moment of my life.

In such a focused concentration climbing and meditation is the same. When the pain forces you to go down . You keep going up.

You are on the edge of life and death . You are on the edge of all possibilities

You have to be willing to try. In trying, you also have a chance to fail

Dont listen to the others. Sometimes in life you have to take risk for yourself

A lot of people summited in his footsteps

In life , you have to keep doing what you believe. You have to ask yourself: do you really want this from your heart? Is this for self glory or for something bigger? Sometimes the idea you come up with may seem impossible to the rest of the world but it doesn’t mean it is impossible to you. And if you can inspire one or two people along the good way, then you can inspire the world

A unique statement in the history of mountaineering

What’s next? I haven’t started yet but We are going bigger

And so I ask you: Which mountain are you climbing? Whose mountain are you climbing —— now?

Change

Change

by yellownblac ♥ 0 Leave a Comment

This is one word we come across every so often but one of the hardest (?) to execute or be aware of.

For example, I do not feel or know that I have changed or aged until I see my kids grow up. So it seems, change happens when we are least aware of it

This morning I thought this word of change echoed to me

I am curious how I will be if I continue to run

John once said that if I started exercising I will be a different person

I will become better

I am curious how I am going to be. What is the change?

Let’s do this experiment.

How will/can I become? And how will/can you—— become?

And I saw this quote – life is not about discovery, life is about creation. And you are creating it all, no one else is doing it for you.

For the fourth consecutive day I ran.

Like a little date I have with myself and the sun and along the way, I have lots of wonderful thoughts/ realizations that come through.

This morning as I ran facing the sun, something in my body opened up and I saw a thought/ realization bloom.

To forgive, do we need there to be a reason ? If so. Just the very fact that I m running like that now, in this way now is the reason.

There are so many new things I want to get on to, and I have progressed and processed so much along the way.

Just running like that is enough for me to forgive, if I have anything else to forgive.

I m always so intrigued by the littlest birds taking on the sky. Soaring in the space. Playing with the space. I see them stretch out and open up their little wings and explore the space. So free so beautiful so wonderful! I want to be that light.

If we can afford that magnanimity at heart and have this kind of space, anything and every issue we have would be little by comparison

I saw a squirrel dancing it’s way up a tree . So light ! As if there is no body weight. I want to be like it.

I ran and let the sunlight cleanse may body. I said my affirmations

I feel myself bathed in sunlight. And it giving me energy

I feel my body warming up. I lifted my body and ran. Lifted the weight off my feet. It’s a different feeling

No wonder we repeat. Because in repetitive motion, we realise we find we breakthrough.

I saw a red ixora bloom.

I had to peel open some leaves to see it. Why hide? You are beautiful in your every right.

No matter how big or small, show your colour for that is your power.

I saw the grace in falling. Just as blooming and opening up is nature, so is falling and closing. And it would be beautiful because it has experienced bloom.

So, bloom!

Loving how nature is speaking to me.

And when I opened WhatsApp, teacher sent me this

Sun’s Rise

Sun’s Rise

I just wanted to see the sun. No- needed.

I did a simple time-lapse observing its mundane yet spectacular rise

Can anything be mundane-so daily so common yet —-so spectacular?

I want to be like the sun

As I held my iPhone out of window, 19 storeys above ground, I wait patiently for its presence.

And it took its time, gradually rising above above

With grace

And i heard myself say

You are truly amazing you TPY

I m so so so proud of you

You are capable of doing anything you want

You need nothing else

And guess what? Now IS the time

Be spectacular and shine in your own way, as always. You are so loved and so very blessed.
