February represents celebrating love, risk, leadership, nature, and transitions into the beautiful theme of rebirth in Spring. So it is just the right time for The Belly Guru To formally return and I am excited!!!!! Over the next few months the center will be evolving into something great because I am asking the community to be a part of it. Our theme is using Yoga as a medicine with integrative licensed professional input when needed and as a holistic exercise practice of self love. Family Fitness in whole is what we seek, meaning all the parts or members of the system are at optimal function. We have lots of ideas and eager instructors. We have big dreams,big hearts with small means and yet we are pulling this together in record time with wonderful supporters. There is a place for everyone here to practice in some way be it on or off the mat . Pay by intention, service (Seva) or monetary exchange but Come get involved. Be a part of our yoga. If you can get to Carolina Place Mall, you can get to me, That is if you want to =0)

Happy Valentine's Day from BellyGuru LLc!
|
Happy Valentines Day and with it I am finding myself pondering the idea of attachment. This is really what Valentines are all about. I mean the heart chakra is the energetic producer of the holiday but what we really are celebrating or seeking is a form of attachment. For 2.5 yrs I have been attached to the idea that I would never re open a yoga studio.
I said I would never do it again. I definitely did not like the time it took before and how it took me away from the service and the practice. I mean, I relish in the flexibility and non commitment my private practice serves and enjoy not worrying about such complications as payroll, overhead or staffing, etc, etc, etc..
Yes, up until January 18th,2010 despite my seemingly perfect balance and an understanding of dharma,I fell for the human illusion that I had complete control over my work in this world. Well, what i have control over is denial and denial is a very funny bird. It is so sneaky and can just fog up that mirror of yourself just enough to let judgment and routine settle in as an excuse against doing exactly what you should be doing. So, despite how I saw where my thoughts went, how my words and attachments to other centers seem to come and go, and without notice as to how weird certain events came to be and just as fast came not to be, I found myself wandering past "For Lease" signs in December. I began talking of opening a "welcoming space" with colleagues and buckled down and hired an assistant to leave me room for "something else". All this did not give my consciousness one clue as to how fast my work would change via my subconscious undertakings. After all , to the outside world I avoided setting up weekly ongoing classes, was asked not to continue with Mama Guru at a local center, was not lately needed at the hospital as a PT because census is down. Yes, up until January 18th, I was heading back to my hobby of privates and helping out volunteering some more. Even my earlier attempt to move my practice to a smaller space and revamp the website to align my focus to private and duet sessions was an attachment to me not growing my business back into a space so as not to become overwhelmed with growing my business too large for my life again. Just when I was sure I could control my fate, life's purpose called. I made a wrong Right turn, met a price in a good spot I couldn't pass up, had a group of supporters cheering me on and whola! Four weeks later I paint and begin transformation.
There really is a thing called Dharma and life does have a plan. So within weeks, Belly Guru will open a community family yoga training centerat 219 Main Street, Pineville NC.
Mark Your Calendar for Intro week activities Feb 22-28 and Sessions to begin March 1st and Visit us online @ www.BellyGuru.com The time is right for a space where All bodies, minds and spirits have access to safe and effective yoga and where independant families with different needs could grow together. The transformative process for newbies is best guided by a friend. I hopped around getting a piece here and there over the past few years but the time has come to give BG programs a home. So I am off to try again!
So what I celebrate and send this Valentine's Day is Love for all of you and hope for the world to Keep Love constant and to redefine attachments to the way things are. Love should be the constant force for intentions but allow yourself the gift of non attachment and welcome change.
Peace and Light,
