The leaves are changing colour and are filling the atmosphere with brilliant shades of reds and yellows and all of our Little Lotus Fall programs are in full swing. It has once again been a while since my last post, as I begin to get settled in my own home (my first home purchase) with my lovely beau! We are finally organized and it is nice to have all my things out of the boxes. However, with the move also came a much needed cleanse. An inner cleanse and an outer. Not only did I set aside time to begin seeing a naturopath (something I have wanted to do for a long time in being more proactive and holistic with my health) but also an external cleanse which included alot of purging of household items that I had just grown attached to for no apparent rhyme or reason.
As I take time to reflect on my cleanses and the positive effect they have had on my life, both internal and external, it brings forth memories of each time we do our No/Yes meditation in our children's yoga classes. Watching the children relieve and invite anger, discouragement and other negative feelings to leave their mind, body and soul as they get out all their NO's, followed by inviting YES''s to enter their mind, body and soul and the relaxation and joy it brings to their faces and movement. So if you have a little yogi who you sometimes hear screaming NO, NO, NO repetitively, followed by YES, YES, YES its because they are taking the time to acknowledge and relieve theirselves of any negative thoughts and invite positive one's to enter their body.
