Too much of the “I need to get this, this and this” mentality, and not enough appreciation for the beauty and love that I already have in my life, had left me feeling a bit disconnected from my passions for the last few days.

Fortunately today was a warm sunny day, so I took some time to just lie down outside on my yoga mat and stare at the sky.  As I watched the light fluffy clouds float by I felt my heart rate slow down.  It was as if my body was tuning in to the expansive quality of the sky, and suddenly I felt so much more spacious and free.  The clouds didn’t know or care where they were going, they just drifted.  I would watch them pass through my field of vision, and when they moved out of sight, I let them go, and embraced the new ones that entered.

I did this for only 5 or 10 minutes, but it was an incredibly peaceful rejuvenating experience.  I realised that I needed to rediscover the meaning in the things I loved, so set that as my intention for the afternoon.  Pinterest is always a great source of inspiration for me, so I went through some of the pins I had saved in the past.  Images of goddesses, and mystical lands full of wonder filled my mind and heart.  I was recharged and ready to create.

I was blessed with so much inspiration, and immersed myself in the process of putting together and sharing some images of my own.  I looked outside at the beautiful garden, and at the magic on the screen in front of me, and felt pure joy.  I was well and truly back in my happy place.
