Changes

Monday morning cup of thoughts

That little voice within has been talking to me for months now. I’ve been avoiding her messages, marking them as unread, hoping she’d bug off.

You know what I mean.

I could hear her, but I wasn’t ready to accept her truth. While I’ve enjoyed writing the garden series, I’ve been feeling depleted, knowing I was offering a fraction of what I’m able to, letting the beauty of my garden do the work for me.

This last week, I finally listened to her plea and joined forces with that wise inner voice.

After publishing 381 posts since July 22 of 2022, it’s time for a change.

This last year, I’ve spoken of my desire to write a sequel to Lessons of a Wayward Yogini. Over time, I’ve realized my free time allows only one major writing commitment, making it clear that now is the time for my second book.

I am beyond excited to write the sequel to Lessons of a Wayward Yogini, because, oh my, I have incredible lessons I believe are worth sharing.

Since publishing my book, I have achieved two major goals.

I’ve become that yoga teacher I once saw in my mind’s eye. No doubt I will continue to grow and expand, but my feet are firmly planted in the soil and I can feel my roots sinking deeper every time I teach. It’s certainly been a journey with many highs and lows, and at one point, a decision to quit. But with the gift of my angels, I’ve overcome my fears. The lessons apply to anyone about any subject.

I’ve also recently been attuned as a Master Reiki practitioner, a journey that began over twenty years ago. Combining yoga and Reiki in my practice leaves me shaking my head in disbelief that I’m lucky enough to welcome these new changes/blessings into my life at the tender age of 70.

I’ve at times questioned why I wasn’t writing more about these new experiences, especially since the title of my Substack implies a yoga theme. Ultimately, it felt like too much for a single post, or even ten posts, making it clear that these stories belong in Lessons Revisited.

So, dear readers, I’m pausing all scheduled content going forward. Although posts will be less frequent, I’ll share updates on my progress with the second book as milestones arise and I’ll also be posting when the spirit moves me, which will undoubtedly be often.

I’ll be pausing all paid subscriptions until I resume my regular writing schedule at which time I will notify you. You should not see any charges going forward, but If you do see that on your end, please reach out in a direct comment or even just a comment on any post as that will make its way to me.

Thank you for your support. You all continue to remind me that dreams do come true.
