What does living from your heart рҹ’“mean for you? . Having always been a person who has been led by my mind (hello logical person here рҹҷӢрҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸ). . IвҖҷve been exploring what being led by the heart feels like? What soul connection means to me?... . IвҖҷve learnt that my heart is my truthвқЈпёҸ. And every time I connect with my heart I honour my truthрҹ’«. Allowing my heart to lead and my mind to follow. Supporting my mind with my daily practices, so I feel safe and secure in living my truth (especially when my truth isnвҖҷt always logical) вңЁрҹ’•рҹҷҸрҹҸ». . . . рҹ“ё @joanasenkutephotography

Ever felt so close to something. To only realise you are so far awayрҹҷ„? . I remember the moment before this photo was taken. I felt I could almost touch my toesрҹ‘Ј. I felt my back arching and my chest facing the skyрҹҢӨ. I noticed how important it felt to hold my foot. To have reached the final pose рҹ§ҳрҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸрҹӨёрҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸвҡЎпёҸ. .... Then to see this picture. рҹ’ҳрҹҷ…рҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸMy ego crushedрҹӨҰрҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸрҹ’ҳ. рҹҷҸрҹҸ»My mind laughingрҹҳӮрҹҷҸрҹҸ». Laughing at the story my ego was telling me. вңЁTouching your toes will change your yoga practiceвңЁ. . Will it? IвҖҷm yet to find outрҹҳІ. Does it matter? Depends on your mindset (and your ego). . For me the strength it takes to activate all my muscles and lean into this pose. рҹ‘үрҹҸјIs where IвҖҷm atрҹ‘ҲрҹҸј. . вҡЎпёҸThe truth of knowing this. Is my anchor for accepting what is. In this present momentвҡЎпёҸ.

Have you ever made a decision and then a minute later doubted it? рҹҷӢрҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸ This week I had to make a decision. It felt big and scary. I sat with it. Felt it. And I knew what I needed to do. I trusted my decision in that moment. вҡЎпёҸNEXT minute... My critter brain (ego) is like... have you made the right decision? рҹ’ҘWill others see this as failing? Will others understand me? рҹ”ҘThen the self doubting, self loathing and lack of trust in myself starts to take over... For the next two d...ays.. I literally let these feelings take over. Leaving me feeling pretty down about myself рҹ’” вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ– And .. What happens when we do this? Not feeling our emotions.. not expressing ourselves..letting the stories of the critter brain hang around.. вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ– рҹ’ҘвҡЎпёҸOur feelings explode all at onceвҡЎпёҸрҹ’Ҙ вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ–вһ– YES!!! This happened to me!!! And the exhaustion from holding it вҖңtogetherвҖқ caught up with me. рҹҳ”рҹӨ§ BUT рҹ’• rather than feeling guilty for letting my emotions and critter brain take over (which IвҖҷve done in the past) I turned to things that support meрҹҷҸрҹҸ», my mediation and journaling tools. Asking for support and guidance in my meditation and writing what came up in my meditation in my journal after рҹ“қ. I allowed all my feelings to fall out on the page so I could figure out what I need to know and what I needed to do next. These tools brought me back into the momentрҹ‘үрҹҸјрҹ’–рҹ‘ҲрҹҸј, rather than in the stories of my critter brain рҹҢҖ. вңЁрҹҢёрҹҢјвңЁрҹҢёрҹҢјвңЁрҹҢёрҹҢј If your like this is me... comment below or (PM me) by sharing рҹ’•рҹҷҸрҹҸ» LetвҖҷs support each other and be grateful that we could see when our critter brain was stealing the lime light рҹҺӨрҹҺ¬вңЁрҹҳҳ

Where are you not allowing your life to unfold? Where are you criticising, judging, and complaining about where you are?рҹҷҲ . . IвҖҷve done itрҹҷӢрҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸ . .
... Resisting where I am. Not accepting where I am. It doesnвҖҷt support me and attracts more of what I didnвҖҷt want in my life. .
Until I started to accept рҹ’“where I am. Surrendering into what is unfolding. Feeling the fear рҹҳ¬of the unknown and the excitement рҹҳҶof adventureвӣ°. рҹ‘үрҹҸјAll at onceрҹ‘ҲрҹҸј. . By accepting and allowing my feelings, I am able to shift my focus, away from the fear and onto the joys of todayрҹҢҲрҹҷҢрҹҸј. Appreciating what is right in front of me. Like Mike sitting in a flower bush рҹҢҝрҹҢёрҹҢҫрҹҢ·looking very hipster (swipe to right photo)вңҢрҹҸјрҹҳӮ. .
Shifting our focus, supports us in creating change рҹҢҖand getting us moving forwardрҹ’«. No matter where you are or whatвҖҷs going on, allow yourself to go through all the motions, making peace рҹҷҸрҹҸ» with the present moment and turn your eyes рҹ‘Җto the learnings and positive moments of where you areвңЁ. . рҹ’•Focus on what is in front of you now.рҹ’•

This morning I woke with unease рҹҢҖin my belly. There is a lot of uncertainty in my life at the moment. A lot of change coming my way. The old Harriet would of woke with hate this morning. Feeling annoyed at herself for feeling this way. Most likely pushing all this hate from her to her partner (I donвҖҷt need to deal with it, he can). Trying to control everything and know exactly what is coming. Annoying most in my path as I try to do thisрҹҳҗ. Yet this Harriet is no longer. рҹҷ…рҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖ...пёҸрҹҷ…рҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸрҹҷ… рҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸрҹҷ…рҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸрҹҷ…рҹҸјвҖ ҚвҷҖпёҸрҹҷ…рҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸ This morning I woke, I did 16 reps of 4 exercises, I consciously breathed for 3 minutes (a let go breathing exercise), meditated for 20 and free wrote for 4 minutes. рҹҷӢрҹҸјвҖҚвҷҖпёҸThe emotions came, I felt them and they washed over me. I feel calm. I feel I sense of self trustрҹҷҸрҹҸ». Knowing everything will be as it is meant to be. рҹ’•рҹҢёрҹ’•рҹҢёрҹ’•рҹҢёрҹ’• Just like the ocean рҹҢҠ emotions are with us for a matter of seconds. If we are able to allow them, feel them, they will pass us. Yet if we attach ourselves to our emotions, they will linger, causing us more grief than we need. Over the long weekend, try this, really feeling your emotions and see if they move on just as you are able to because there is no attachment рҹҷҸрҹҸ»рҹ’•вңЁ And share below or PM how you go with this рҹ’ң IвҖҷd love to hear what comes up.

For a while now IвҖҷve been looking to create something. To bring people together. I would chat with girlfriends, thinking up ways to create a community рҹ‘ҜвҖҚвҷҖпёҸрҹ‘ҜвҖҚвҷҖпёҸ But our ideas always revolves around a product. That was until I realised I didnвҖҷt need the product. I didnвҖҷt need anything.... What I needed to create a community... was a space вңЁ So I started hosting workshops in my living room рҹҸЎ Bringing women together. So they could connect with themselves and other like minded womenрҹ’– So they could dive deeper and unpeel some layer. Discovering something new about themselves. And sharing with others whatвҖҷs coming up for them. рҹ’«рҹҢёрҹҷҸрҹҸ»рҹ’– This experience is what I create in my events. A safe space for women to connect. I always longed for such a space and here I am now. Creating it for you. Each event is different.Always with a different theme. My next event being Wholeheartednessрҹ’•.

Over the past week I havenвҖҷt posted much. There have been many times where I have felt...I should. Or I should start developing my next workshop.

... These are not my natural tendencies. And I struggle with this stepping back like action (lots of guilt comes my way). But this is something IвҖҷm continually learning is soo important. рҹҷҸрҹҸ» Receiving where IвҖҷm at.

And so yesterday I opened my heart and created a space for others to be and feel safe. вңЁ Opening up my home for an afternoon of connecting with ourselves, understanding our stories and choosing whether they serve us, so we can begin to write new ones.

Have you ever felt stuck? Ever felt like things arenвҖҷt flowing. I too have found myself in this position. рҹҢҖ I was recently in the transition between jobs. Where I felt I wasnвҖҷt вҖҳgettingвҖҷ the job. ... Feeling like there were no jobs out there. Feeling like I couldn't get inflow. Feeling like I was not good enough. Spiraling into the world of self doubt. And then I caught myself. рҹ’• Asking myself вңЁWhat is it I need today?вңЁ And that was.. to BE. рҹ’ӣрҹҢјTo stretch my legs through the incredible city I live in. To BE in the city that surrounds me. Appreciating its beauty. рҹҢӨвңЁAppreciating being in my own space.рҹҷҸрҹҸ» It also gave me time to ask myself.. вңЁWhat is the gift I have been gifted right now?вңЁ This didn't come easy, but after a very long time walkingрҹ‘ҹрҹ‘ҹвҖҰ.I realised it was... Time. Time for myself. Time to slow down and time to create.вӯҗпёҸ And as I received this giftрҹҺҒ. I surrendered into the time. Into the space. вңЁ
The more I surrendered. The more the magic рҹҢҲ presented itself.... The next day, I received a call. The call that would bring me my current job. рҹ’«
The power of surrender has been showing up alot like this. And as I resist it. I am constantly brought back (by stories likes this) to remembering why it is I need to surrender. вңЁрҹ’•рҹҷҸрҹҸ»
