Hi Everybody!
A couple weeks ago, I flew to Orlando, Florida to visit my 90 year old MOM on the exact day that Hurricane Helene was arriving. I thought they’d cancel my flight but they didn’t. It was a bit bumpy and sometimes scary but I got there. (Thank you SPIRIT AIRLINES)
My belly was flip flopping and I had to close my eyes at times - deep in prayer struggling to trust that the pilot knew what he was doing. Truthfully, I was flip flopping worry/fear and crazy thoughts…it was a long 2 1/2 hour flight!
EQUANIMITY has been my go-to word for the last 5 years.
If you look in Websters dictionary, it says Equanimity, Noun: mental calmness, composure, and evennesses of temper, especially in a difficult situation.
Holy cow! Isn’t that what we all want and need NOW?
I’ve been focused on developing more PEACE & CALM as I navigate my own personal turbulence amidst a very crazy world. I’m sure you feel it too! Honestly, I haven’t mastered it yet and I’ll continue working on it. It’s a lifetime endeavor!
In meantime, my thoughts and prayers go out to everyone who’s struggling with what life has dealt them. There's so much in life that we can't control. For those affected by Helene & Milton- my heart goes out to you. Superstorm SANDY devastated the Jersey Shore and my community 12 years ago, and I truly empathize. Hang in there, you're not alone!
At the end of yoga class, we always end with NAMASTE which is a recognition- a salute to the divinity within each and every one of us. It’s a simple beautiful and very wonderful ritual - a remembering that we are somehow truly all connected. I believe this is true. Let’s join together!
Peace Namaste.
