something shiny and new

our new lawnmower

My boyfriend recently gifted me with a shiny jewel from somewhere other than Tiffany’s or Mandala Design Works. I have actually never received anything from Tiffany’s but I doubt it could compare with this beauty. I like the color and the way it feels. It even smells good. You see, I LOVE to mow the lawn! It’s exercise, I love the smell of the freshly cut grass, and enjoy the isolating thrum of the motor. I find myself in a meditative bubble, which allows me the time to think about nothing and everything. It is a creative time.

I am heading outside right now to take it for a spin!

Remembering

Being in Delaware Water Gap is not about making art, and I need to remember that. I always have high hopes of feeling creative while I’m here, hanging out in the space where I used to paint for so many years. There is a small area that I keep carved out in the room where I spent so many happy hours and that now functions mostly for storage. I always imagine that I will feel enticed to spend time in that room sitting at the drafting table drawing and painting small things. I keep paints, pencils, charcoal, paper at hand just in case, but it never seems to happen. So accept it, Susan, and release the feelings of self-doubt and guilt that go along with not creating for two or three whole weeks at a time.

Remember that being in Delaware Water Gap is about doing lots of Reiki, selling mandalas, showing paintings, seeing friends, listening to music at the Deer Head, taking walks, and having fun. It’s about reconnecting with my history, staying connected to so many people that I love, keeping my East coast energy alive and well. And that’s more than enough.

Seven years into this process, still loving the art of being bi-coastal.

Body wisdom

Anita Bondi Designs Hidden Messages Collection

can seem like a complicated term.

It isn’t a complicated concept though.

Try this:

~stop what you are doing right now

~take a deep breath and let it out with a sigh

~ask yourself what your body is feeling at this moment and notice any sensations

~if you want to go further, notice how you are feeling emotionally, notice what your thoughts are saying

The next step is the most important one

BELIEVE YOURSELF!

Trust what you noticed.  Great job.  Lesson number one in Body Wisdom and you

scored 100.  Now, celebrate!
