For over 18 years now I have had the great blessing to learn the lessons that only chronic vertigo can teach.  Specifically mine are migraine associated vertigo or MAV.  Actual headaches are rare at only one or two per month and they are controlled well holistically.  But the vertigo is insidious and comes and goes.  Mostly it comes with weather fronts and hormonal changes, but can show up at any time.  One of the things I have learned is that keeping my life as balanced and centered as possible is critical.  When I get the false sensations I know it is a good time to do some Yoga poses and reflect on where there is imbalance.  Once I hone in on it I can make adjustments to get me back to a place of peace.  Often it is overwork that causes me to slow down and tweak my daily routines.  I find the simple poses like the lotus work best for me to calm down my spirit and help me to get centered again.

Today’s offering from my “Transforming Energy” series reflects this sense of peace I gain during Yoga.

Enjoy!

The word Namaste is an ancient Sanskrit greeting meaning, “The Spirit within me salutes the Spirit in you” – a knowing that we are all made from the same One Divine Consciousness.  For me it means “Letting Go”.  Recently I have been struggling with the betrayal of a friend.  Years of trust were lost when they allowed their jealousy and inner bitterness to dominate their thinking.  I have had to overcome a lot of suffering in my lifetime from sexual abuse to the suicide of a parent, so I am no stranger to forgiveness and letting go.  But for some reason this one person and the actions they chose really got to me. In the scheme of things he and our falling out are seemingly insignificant.  But in this morning’s meditation, I have discovered the importance of this life event.  I have been having negative feelings toward him which is not my usual state.  I have wanted him to fail.  I have wanted him to be ashamed of his actions.  These thoughts and feelings do not serve me. So today I have decided that I will start practicing Namaste.  I know this person looks at my blog daily and from now on when I see they have I will be sending them a blessing. A blessing for happiness, health and success in their art career.  I will visualize them doing well and having a beautiful life.  I will affirm that every painting they create will sell and sell well.  I will affirm that they will find within themselves what I have found already.  I will love them in spirit.  Namaste “Craig”…..Namaste……
