Good morning, Tuesday...I just did a great yoga class, and though I'm not really a yoga girl, I like to do it once a week just to open up the limbs. The chick teaching was all Jivamuktied, and though sometimes I find their hippy dippiness a bit much, I do love that style of yoga- flowy and filled with music and fairly user friendly. I like it. And I'm glad I could do some backbends today- for some reason doiong full wheel (or laying on your back and putting your hands inverted by your head and lifting your whole body) is a big challenge for me- trusting that I'm not going to break my neck and such.
And on that note, I'm still learning to trust- this new life, the freelance thing, the adapting to all of this newness. Though I'm fairly sure I'm not going to break my neck, there are moments of uncertainty as I take each new step, but I have faith it's all going to be great. I thank heaven that I'm a girl who is fueled by inspiration- and I just rediscovered this amazing fashion illustration by Antonio Lopez, my all time favorite fashion illo guy of all time. Back about a million years ago, I wanted to be a fashion illustrator, and went to art school during high school for many years- almost every summer of my life. I stopped illustrating because I doubted that I was any good, and many times I wondered where I would be now if I didn't stop doing that. You simply can't let doubt stop you...keep pushing through it and get to the next place.
But I'm not going to make that mistake this time- I'm going to focus on my writing, as well as a new idea I have for a more entrepreneurial endeavor, which I'll keep you posted on. I'm not going to let the fear of stretching my limbs and maybe getting into a position I can't get out of get in my way- I'm going to breathe through all of this newness and cold weather and working from home and do my thing...going to keep going and going and that's that.
Hope you have a lovely image or person or book or phyiscal activity that allows you to move forward, while looking back to why you are doing this or that in the first place. That's all I got for you today, everyone...all the love and love some more, cause that's what's up this here I am kind of Tuesday in the 718. I think I need a green ensemble like the one in this illo- green is the color of fertility, lushness, and prosperity, after all. XO
