  • Chick peas cooking

    chick peas cooking smell like farts
    I can't write that , can I   ?
    It would have made a nice title though.
    Ah well,
    I've soaked chick peas and kidney beans for 10 hours and now cooking them for later use in savourie and dips.
    Lentils too.
    I'm all set to create wonderful healthy dishes, but my home smells ...er.....a bit stale

    In other news :
    I saw Sirius and Lepus and Sagittarius around 5 am  this morning
    Also went to the hairdresser's to have my hair trimmed as it had reached that impossible stage that drives you crazy. While I was there a customer walked off with my brolly . It had stared raining and the hairdresser told her to take hers , only she walked off with mine by mistake . But , it's all sorted again now.

    I'm falling asleep here ...peace zzzzzzzzzzzzzz night night and sleep well ... sweet dreams all !

  • Being witnessed

    My notes from  the " daily om ".Read the full version here

    " Letting yourself be seen "

    Being Witnessed


    http://www.dailyom.com


    When we allow ourselves to be witnessed by another, we cannot help but be transformed by the experience. .........Not only are we baring ourselves to someone else, but we are allowing that person to hold a very specific kind of space with us so this powerful act can take place. To be witnessed is to let ourselves be seen as we truly are in that moment.
     
     Our friends and loved ones can easily be witnesses for us, if only we are brave enough to let them. .................
     
    ..............................Anyone who has ever seen love, admiration, acceptance, or appreciation reflected in a friend or loved one’s eyes knows how transformative that experience can be. When you bare yourself to another, you are giving them the gift of you and showing them that they also matter.

    Maybe this is why we blog and invite comments from our friends and people we trust. Trust is important.

  • About Vision Boards

    Wot ? I hear you ask are they ? People have been asking. I wrote a long explanation for Lu the other day and then could not find it ... but now it's turned up, so here's Mira's impromptu understanding of a wot a vision bored board is.


     Vision boards are personal , visual representations of your goals , dreams, ambitions, projects ... in fact anything you wish to manifest or create .

    They can be works of art  ....or not. Some are more like diagrams.  Each vision board is unique just as the process of creating it is unique. So allow your creativity to flow uncensored and have fun.

    You need a board , stiff paper or canvas of a decent size.

    Meditate, pause , reflect before you begin about its purpose and your goals .What is it that you want to create ?  What does the vision of your ideal life look like ? If you can imagine it , you are halfway there.

    - love , relationships
    - health, well being ,
    - family
    - finances
    - home
    - leisure
    - passion ...etc etc

    Brainstorm ... write down words phrases affirmations for each. Keep it all positive. Turn negative things around to be positive. Trick is to include what you WANT and not what you don't want in your life .. leave that out.

    Then take a pile of magazines, the more varied the better and start cutting , tearing out anything that attracts your attention.

    Select those bits that evoke your vision or dream. Play around with them for a while. Finally , put it all together on the board - the idea is to put on that board what you want to manifest in your life.

    Allow the board to evolve
    Put your created Vision Board somewhere where you can see it often. Mine's in my bedroom so I see it before I fall asleep and when I wake up. But you could also have it in your office. Each time you glance up at it  you will be reminding yourself ... prgramming yourself as it were.. towards your goal.

    Get the idea ?

    Have fun xx
