I wanted to share the following quotes, honoring the spirit of women, as we wrap up 2014.

“A Woman in harmony with her spirit is like a river flowing.
She goes where she will without pretense and arrives at her destination
prepared to be herself
and only herself. ”
~ Maya Angelou

We are each gifted in a unique and important way. It is our privilege and our adventure to discover our own special light.

~Mary Dunbar

Yours is the energy that makes your world. There are no limitations to the self except those you believe in.

I have an everyday religion that works for me. Love yourself first, and everything else falls into line.

Embracing Our Shadow Sides

May 21st, 2014 | Posted by Velda in ENERGY HEALING | QUOTES/(BOOKS ON PINTEREST)

The Guest House

This being human is a guest house

Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,

Some momentary awareness comes

As an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!

Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,

Who violently sweep your house

Empty of its furniture,

Still, treat each guest honorably.

He may be clearing you out

For some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame,

Meet them at the door laughing

and invite them in.

Be grateful for whatever comes

Because each has been sent

As a guide from beyond.

~Jeludin Rumi (1207-1273)

(Translated by Coleman Barks)

We Remember Them…

May 17th, 2014 | Posted by Velda in ENERGY HEALING | QUOTES/(BOOKS ON PINTEREST)

We Remember Them…

In the rising of the sun and in its going down,
we remember them.

In the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter,
we remember them.

In the opening of buds and in the rebirth of spring,
we remember them.

In the blueness of the sky and in the warmth of summer,
we remember them.

In the rustling of leaves and in the beauty of autumn,
we remember them.

In the beginning of the year and when it ends,
we remember them.

When we are weary and in need of strength,
we remember them.

When we are lost and sick at heart,
we remember them.

When we have joys we yearn to share,
we remember them.

So long as we live, they too shall live, for they are now a part of us,
as we remember them.

~ Gates of Prayer, Judaism Prayer book

This beautiful prayer was sent to me recently honoring my Mother’s passing. I know for all of us, we can call on our loved ones that have crossed over for guidance and healing energy. Love you, Mom.

Heal By Connecting With Self

February 8th, 2014 | Posted by Velda in ENERGY HEALING | QUOTES/(BOOKS ON PINTEREST)

I feel this poem by Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes speaks clearing to the importance of reconnecting or fully honoring ourselves. Remembering WE ARE!

Remembering The Motherlode

We do not become healers.

We came as healers. We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.

We do not become storytellers.

We came as carriers of the stories,

We and our ancestors actually lived. We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.

We do not become artists.

We came as artists. We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.

We do not become writers…dancers…musicians…

helpers.. peacemakers.

We came as such. We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.

We do not learn to love in this sense.

We came as Love. We are Love.

Some of us are still catching up to who we truly are.

Jungian Psychoanalyst

‘Ancient Spirit Wisdom’ for All Women

November 28th, 2013 | Posted by Velda in QUOTES/(BOOKS ON PINTEREST)

The beautiful painting above and the heart-felt poem for your enjoyment below are the gifts of Jassy Watson titled:

‘Ancient Spirit Wisdom’

I am Ancient Spirit Wisdom

Listen

I am ancient spirit wisdom
Cosmic Creatress -
all knowing, all seeing, all being.
I am Medicine Woman -
healer, visionary, guide
dream-weaver, dream-keeper.
I am past, present, future,
Divinity Herself.

Come…
journey with me
into the dark, vast interior…

She is ancient spirit wisdom
swathed in the mantle of life -
earth, air, fire, water.
She is soul rhythm
drum beat, heartbeat
rattle and hum, rattle and hum.
She is shapeshifter,
spirit bird emerging
from thick smoke spirals,
winged messenger
watching, waiting…

She offers me the lapis mantle,
I am afraid.
Self-doubt lurks in the shadows.
She wraps the mantle
over my bare shoulders -
warm, welcoming, familiar.
Have I been here before?
She embraces me.
Her gentle knowing and
accepting gaze beckons me.
I surrender.

I am transformed.
Heart ablaze
faith renewed,
we unite in Her cosmos,
my wise eternal companion and I.
I Am ancient spirit wisdom,
universal embodiment
of all that was, all that is,
all that will be.

Self Reflection Quotes -Truth in Sight

July 20th, 2013 | Posted by Velda in QUOTES/(BOOKS ON PINTEREST)

“It is when you lose sight of yourself, that you lose your way.

To keep your truth in sight

you must keep yourself in sight

and the world to you should be a mirror to reflect to you your image;

the world should be a mirror that you reflect upon.”
