Just a thought about Growth

If you are merely informed about how to solve your problems, there is no emotional discovery linked to it. Without emotional discoveries, there can be no growth. The basis of growth revolves around setting reasonable goals for ourselves and our lives.

Attention!!!!!!

If you don't have a yoga practice, don't even intend to have one, or don't practice as strongly as you would like... EVERYONE! every moment of everyday, to help your bodies out, keep your tail bone tucked under, and keep your shoulders moving down away from your ears, keep your spines strong and tall and breathe in and out deep in your belly!

The Good Girl's Guide to Bad Girl Sex

'The Good Girl's guide to Bad Girl Sex' is a book written by Dr. Barbara Keesling. I know, very random for this blog some of you may think. The skinny: my twin is moving across the country, and being unable to carry all of her belongings on a plane, she has given me many of her possessions, this book being one of them. It has a cute fun fresh cover on it, being 25 and married, having a healthy sexual appetite and sex life of my own, I simply started to read the book out of curiousity and for entertainment. I'm sharing this with you now because there is a passage I feel applies to all of us in our lives, for our everyday struggles, not just with our secxuality. :

' "When animal handlers begin working with baby elephants that are being trained for the circus, they drive heavy stakes into the ground to which they tether the baby elephants by a chain (sort of like a dog on a leash) so that they can't run away. The untrained baby elephant strains agains the chain at first in its natural rambunctions state, trying to break free. After several weeks though, the elephant stops testing the chain, having learned that its struggle against the restraint is futile. As the animal grows, the handlers contiue to 'stake' the elephant. Even though the elephant soon grows to a size that would allow it to easily pull the stake from the ground and run free, it has long since stopped trying. The elephant is convinced that the stake is stronger that it is, and has lost the will to even try. Psychologists call the 'learned helplessness.' "
'Mant of us are not that different from the baby circus elephants. We are still tethered to the past by old, outdated modes of behavior that were forced upon us when we were young and impressionable - still committed to being "little". We have forgotten that we are big and strong now, with the power to break free of the chains of the past and choose our own destiny. You are big and strong. You can break free from the past. You will be who YOU want to be. Say it out loud!'

So go be free everyone =)
Love you All!
