About Me

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
I'm 40 something and live in Ottawa with my husband. We're from the UK and just spent the last year or so living in Hong Kong. Three very different countries. Right now I'm not sure how this Blog is going to evolve. All I know is that I have missed blogging from my Asia days, so I'm back. My other 2 blogs have felt like they had a distinct purpose, this one feels a bit different. It feels a bit like a blank canvas on which to start writing and just see what evolves, what transpires. This blog is a bit of a magical mystery tour for me. I want to go somewhere but I'm not entirely sure where just yet but perhaps the only way to find out where I want to go is to start moving. In any direction. And see where I end up.

Day 33

After 3 hours of Journey Dance...Dancing Through the Chakras this afternoon, I was not up for any more yang activity, so today's practice was a relatively short yin practice.

I'm a total novice when it comes to Journey Dance; this was my first time. It was fun, although totally out of my normal realm of comfort to be honest, so I'm somewhat proud of myself for going and trying something new. It was mostly good, but it did churn up some stuff. Emotional Stuff. Dancing through the chakras will do that I guess. I also suspect that is why my usual relaxing yin sequence felt a bit uncomfortable today. I did my best as ever to stay present with the discomfort and sensations in my body, and I used my breath and my attention to dissipate it and largely that worked for me, but today I confess that I was secretly glad when my final meditation was interrupted by a phone call that I couldn't ignore!
