MELTed Self-Care for your Soul and Instagram Yoga Challenges!

A little MELTed Self Care For the Soul!

Taking care of ourselves is the best gift we can give to others. To begin to nourish and nurture our own needs and passions allows us to become more whole hearted so we may bring this to the table in our interactions with others and ultimately teach our youth to care for themselves and become authentically whole hearted beings!

“When I loved myself enough, I began leaving whatever wasn’t healthy. This meant people, jobs, my own beliefs and habits – anything that kept me small. My judgement called it disloyal. Now I see it as self-loving.” – Kim McMillen

An awesome photo taken by @speed_grapher_ for his High School photography project on Relaxation.

I am so impressed by this photo, looks like sun rays shooting out of me! Too cool!!
It was so rewarding helping someone with such a creative spark in him. His father @creative365 worked so well in teaching him ‘tricks of the trade’ without taking away from his sons own creative process and vision!!

Thanks for including me in such a cool project guys!!

Day 14 of #nourishwithyoga is #PURVOTTANASANA –#upwardplankpose. My heart is open to potential, healing, and love! I can hardly stay in my body when I think of this mystical time of transformation … people are waking up to their fullest potential, no longer moving by way of the status quo, ultimately, requiring more of themselves and of others! It’s a beautiful process to grow and step into the love and light you are!! Love and Light! Namaste

“We are living at a time of great transformation. The spiritual awakening that began in the 1960s needs to mature to its next level, which is a deepening into devotion to a mystical practice while remaining an effective force in the world. And by that I mean remaining in your skin, in your role as who you are. Mystics knew how to channel grace through prayer and they knew the power of that. They knew how to receive guidance through reflection and contemplation; they knew how to share the gift of illumination with each other. These are great gifts of life and profound grace that we are capable of providing for each other and the world. This is what it means to be a mystic without a monastery. You make a commitment to your own interior illumination and through that discover the “sacred” part of your “contract” and the true meaning of your highest potential.” – Caroline Myss

Day 3 of #blossomintoasanas is #uttanasana –#standingforwardfold for Anahata/Heart – Fourth Chakra.

I love this challenge, not only because I adore working with the energy of my chakras, but I don’t think I’ve ever worked with the back aspects of my chakras … So, this different perspective is too cool!!! Traditionally we open our hearts by opening the front body towards heaven, to manifest love and compassion to others, and as you see here we are folding within and opening the back aspects of Anahata to show love and compassion towards our journey, where we traveled and have come to thus far . . .

The front aspect of our chakras relates to the world in front of us, and that which manifests in the world we live in and face on a daily basis.
The back aspect of our chakras is our connection to our past, lineage, and ancestors, and the hidden and invisible aspects of that which has yet to manifest!

We have so much potential!!!! Life is beautiful and so highly receptive to our attitudes and beliefs about it!! Love and Light. Namaste
