New Moon Affirmation Collage: Releasing old dreams, originally uploaded by anandaleeke.

Greetings All,

For the past week I have been working on releasing habits, thoughts, behaviors, and things from my spirit, mind, heart, body, breath, and life that no longer serve my highest good. It is an assignment my life coach/yin yoga teacher Yael Flusberg of Y Elements (http://yelements.com)  gave me during our last session. It is an assignment that I must do every day in some way.

I am also using rituals like smudging , meditations, and yoga poses and breathing exercises that focus on the yogic principle of aparigraha (http://www.yogaatsantosha.com/Inspirations_santosha_yoga/Entries/2009/6/1_Entry_1.html). Collaging has also been a great visual affirmation. That’s why I created a releasing dead dreams collage. What I am discovering with this visual affirmation is some new spaces of peace inside of my spirit. I am taking it slow. It is a life process. Lighting candles and incense in my home also help me set the tone for my releasing process.

Are you releasing anything from your life?

Peace, Creativity, Compassion, and Releasing Energy,

Ananda
