What's New on Bindi Blogs
|  |
March 21, 2014 I walked out of the office tower with a huge smile and a bag full of memories. So far retired life has been amazing. By retired I mean my day now belongs to me, my focus and direction are my own choosing, my priorities are clear and I have the time to dream bigger than ever. Everyday feels like Saturday.
Preparing to open YogaVision Centre has been a lifetime in the making. The step-by-step, hour to hour activities are unfolding with speed and precision. I serve myself best when i imagine the best possible outcome and expect just that. I have my meditations to thank for that.
