Love Yourself

Learning the art of doing whats best for myself, you know that thing called self love? I finished this painting yesterday, it was so much fun to create.  I love painting, I don't think I do it enough anymore. There is a lot of exploration that you learn about yourself when you slow down and take care of your body including it's needs and wants. Every day is a great opportunity for growth, and transformation, and I love that.

My Love for Meditation

  The thing about meditation is: you become more and more you.

  I wanted to let you know that Oprah and Deepak Chopra started a 21 day meditation challenge on Manifesting True Success this past Monday, March 16.  If you're interested in giving this a try, I highly recommend it. 

  I speak from my heart when I say that as an artist, I have the worst time focusing on my work -- I'm the queen of procrastination.  A few weeks ago, I decided to come up with a new plan.  A plan to wake up earlier, go for a walk, meditate, and do yoga.  I did this for 2 weeks with success, and then hit a rut, and reverted back to my old ways.  I'm back at it again this week, and I'm feeling great.  I have to remind myself that I am the most important person in my life, and by waking up earlier in the morning, I'm giving myself some very valuable "me time."  

  Every day is a new day to wake up and be grateful.  Anytime you feel distracted, sad, lost, stressed, take a moment to go inside and connect from within.  You always have your breath, and by breathing in and out slowly, you will feel more calm, and centered.  It's taken me a long time to understand that by meditating, I'm going home.  I am safe, free, and loved. Give it a try, and see how you like it. Feel free to share your journey with me.

with love, Brynne
