Last month ended with an indulgent yoga retreat in a small
fishing village in Cancun, Puerto Morelos. It was seven days of pure bliss. There was
yoga, meditation, creation of new friendships and of course some good old
fashioned excitement and adventure along the way as well. My favorite parts
included bonding with the girls especially Jojo -another one of my favorite new
soul sisters-, swimming in ‘cenotes’- these incredibly mystical waterholes deep
inside mother earth believed to have healing properties by the locals and their
ancestors… (honestly it was refreshingly fresh and cool waters that felt
wonderfully embalming on our itchy-painful bug bitten skin.… not to mention
what it does for any ailments of the soul too…so yes my vote is totally in with
the Mayans on the healing properties of cenotes… especially the less touristy
ones further inside the Mexican jungles)…and then there was the visit to the
Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza, one of the seven wonders of the world; Yes-feeling
profoundly privileged to make it here!
This vacation I felt all along was to be an extra special
gift for me on this journey of life in multitude of soul searching and
physically rejuvenating ways and it did not disappoint!-Even with the darned
bug bites which were way too abundant somehow…and not just the mosquitoes!...
Perhaps we were making blood sacrifices for the ancient Mayan Gods for our
blessings!? Who knows! ;-) Lol…And since we came back… in-tact I think it’s all
good regardless!
So what I have learned and come to peace with from this amazing
holiday…. I will just have to share in upcoming blogs… for now I am still digesting
all the changes inside me since.. (thanks also to this book I’ve been reading along
the way that I’m convinced is perfectly timed by destiny…also will share more on
this later); Much like the peeling of an onion…each experience and each year seems
to strip me closer to the core, to what’s real and to what matters.….so that
my heart is literally bursting at the seams with gratitude and awe for all that
is. So many years I had spent self-imprisoned by my fears and thank goodness those
are finally behind me now!!! Life is the greatest party and should be
celebrated!!
Indulge me please as I wish us ALL these vital gifts…of gratitude, peace and endless love….and of letting go of our un-serving and unrealistic fears! The whole world is our playground and we are all here as friends.…So-Unleash that inner kid! Join in and let’s play!! Namaste!
