Prana Shakti, Partnership, Pregnancy, Parenthood, Preparation, Power and Pranams.

My personal Path of Practice:
Prana Shakti
(the creative & pulsating life force within me), Partnership (a love story of two people who consciously choose one another every day), Pregnancy (Grace in my belly revealing herself through this growing baby boy who lives in my womb), Parenthood (The highest calling of them all), Purification (of all self-defining labels accumulated along the way) Preparation (for a new life, a new calling and for the birthing of all this woman has yet to become, experience, learn and know), Power (to fully stand in mine as a wife, mother and creative woman) Pranams (daily gratitude and humble thanks for my beautiful life and blessings along the way).

Observations.

Within the experience of my senses there are full but delicate yellow and white carnations on the kitchen table, smells of double-whicked candles that fill the air, a soft metronome of the ticking clock on the wall and the bright yellow sunflower I painted that serves as my reminder of one of the most moving experience I've ever had all because someone discovered their gift and said "Yes!" in choosing to be fully self-expressed in developing and sharing it.

I hear my beloved in the other room as he prepares for his evening rituals while I continue to hum the lyrics, "Godspeed, little man" as if we were still singing and harmonizing as he strummed the lullaby on my guitar right next to me.

My body is becoming fuller, more beautiful than ever before and continues to shift and change as my belly, breasts and heart expand so that they can serve their very purpose...to be the lifeline for the growing pearl in my womb that I get to call my little baby boy; my child.

My heart is full, so full; fuller than ever before.
I feel grounded and anchored in purpose.
And I am with deep peace.

I feel strong, physically,
Empowered mentally
and
At One spiritually.

Everything is changing and it's all uncharted territory yet

I am calm,
full of trust
and driven by love.

This is my life.

And this is me, drinking my tea, witnessing the beauty and blessing in the simplicity that is my incredible, love-filled, grand and full life.

My Path of Practice

With the many changes taking place in my life, I have been cleaning out the drawers and shelves of my heart to reflect this change and to create room for all that will come with it.

The makeover of my blog, now titled Path of Practice, will echo the happenings going on in my heart and in my world through the most profound time of extreme life change coming from every direction. This time symbolizes a complete transition; an undoing of everything in my life as I've know it to be thus far in the most beautiful (sometimes crazy, sometimes stressful but always beautiful even so) ways. 

I have been privately documenting my journey in letters to my baby since the moment I knew I was pregnant which has inspired me to publicly document my experiences from another angle as walk this new life path and explore the ever-changing path of practice. Stay tuned...
