How Can a “Trust Fall” Shift Your View
I’m not suggesting you jump out of a plane!
But ever wonder how to jumpstart a change in your life? New job. Organized closet. Healthier lifestyle. Dream vacation. A Trust Fall can be just what you need. Let me explain.
For me, I always wanted to try yoga. In fact, I pasted magazine photos of women doing the lotus pose on vision boards. They knew how to live their Best Life. I’d love to try yoga, but I'm out of shape. Too old. People will laugh. I don't have the right clothes. What if I look silly?
Yet a voice inside kept telling me -
I really wanted to try yoga.
I looked in the mirror and asked myself: “Will I regret never trying this once?”
Next thing I knew I am on my mat oceanside at the scenic Bug Light Yoga led by the amazing, Kelly Rich. And after seeing posts of baby goats on my friend’s Facebook feed, I decided to try goat yoga. All by myself, during a global pandemic.
Imagine my joy as I attempt the Flying Crow pose along side baby Norwegian Dwarf goats at Sunflower Farm with Hope Hall.
How I started living my Best Life. (And you can too!)
Attitude and Gratitude
I changed my attitude when I got tired of waiting for "perfect" to happen.
For some imaginary person to say, "Okay Susan, you can start doing what you want to."
I had to decide and commit to obtaining what I wanted. No excuses. I now realize that’s when the Law of Attraction started to kick in, creating positive thoughts that opened me up to new possibilities.
Mindset and Responsibility
I began to take responsibility for what I experienced, resulting in a powerful shift where I began to live life on my terms, being fully present and accountable.
This feeling of empowerment rippled across aspects of my life. I signed up for workshops and events like Maine YogaFest. Inspired, I woke up early to meditate and write in my journal. I immersed myself in reading about my chakra system and today I feel honored to offer guided meditations.
Walk My Talk
As new tools entered my consciousness, I created a personal practice: Early morning "Me Time" of reflection and imagination is an essential thread of my life. This daily ritual inspires a vibrant tapestry of inspiration, creation, balance and joy.
Trust Fall
To think it all started with a shift in attitude and what I call, a Trust Fall of believing in myself. And now, the pictures I paste on my vision board are of ME doing yoga.
So I ask you: What are you waiting for?
Live Your Best Life!
