Hey this girl falls off the grid and comes back with the most favorite yoga playlist to date...
Not Running from fear, now.
Stopping, turning and looking at it for who it is. And usually who it is, is... me.
As I looked around for information about running from fear...
"He also taught that many of our emotions are the result, not the cause, of physical reactions (we are afraid because we run, not the other way round) and that mimicking, say, a smile or a friendly handshake will often produce a feeling of friendliness."
“Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.” – Marie Curie
Fear is actually a tool to help us escape danger. It is part of an evolutionary, survival mechanism. When we experience fear, our adrenal glands (located directly above our kidneys) release adrenaline into the blood stream which causes a series of biological reactions in our body.
It increases blood and oxygen flow to our muscles so we can run faster.
It restricts blood flow to other areas such as our stomach.
It dilates our pupils so we can better see things around us.
In our culture real danger is only about 1% of the fear being experienced today. The other 99% is just non-physical fear. Fear living in the head only. When your mind takes you on the fear based path... failure is often the result at the end because your ability to process information and make rational decisions is impaired.
The ability to ground and ask your heart is this real or perceived? If it is real, run like hell... if it is the opposite - well maybe move out of the way, but do not run.
This rant is for all of you too afraid to wait on the ledge... and take a leap of faith...

Laughter and Happiness... Sat. August 19,2011
Time is the best teacher, although it kills the students.
When we look closely at the brain the areas that are involved in laughter are the Limbic System. It is central, neither right nor left, they are a network of structures located beneath your cerebral cortex and these particular structures control some behaviors that are essential to motivation and emotional behavior.
The hypothalamus is a part of the Limbic System that is a major contributor to the production of loud, uncontrollable laughter.
The hypothalamus regulates important functions like blood pressure, pituitary gland regulation, hydration, metabolism, sleep cycles, testicular function and ovarian, your energy, body temperature, mood and behavior, this list goes on the hypothalamus is really the brain of the brain. It is your automatic or subconscious nervous system. This is the part of the brain that takes everything in and leaves you with a memory...
When you are out of balance in the central hemisphere it can cause a lake of motivation, depression.
Laughter and success, laughter and happiness, laughter and good old laughter spark something in each one of us that is indescribable. From a simple smile to a roaring boisterous laugh... something begins to change shields are let down, connections are made, moments experienced now. The average human laughs about 17 times a day and a healthy well taken care of child laughs about 400 times a day...

Fear of What you don't know...
Successful...
Assumptions...
Definition of Success #1. Resulting or terminating in success #2. gaining or having gained success #3. accomplishing an aim or purpose #4. having achieved popularity, profit or distinction
First of all what does resulting or terminating in success mean? When we are done we were success? Is that it? or do we have to complicate it with all the popularity, profit or distinction? Assume for a second that I believe success is what you believe and believe for a second that success was just the end and the end as long as you got there with authenticity, passion & you actually made it; was success.
If you fear getting to the end how will you ever succeed? And assuming the end is the end is the illusion...
