 Hi Friends, Happy Spring! We’re finally getting some sunshine this week, and it’s making me want to clean house- mind, body and home. I’m trying to eat cleaner and get rid of some addictive foods and beverages. It’s herbal tea for me this week. I think the sun is helping balance the moodiness of zero caffeine. The plants are starting to grow, and we’ve even got an indoor garden going.  "I love spring anywhere, but if I could choose I would always greet it in a garden." ~ Ruth Stout I picked some mint from the garden to place on this smoothie. Makes it taste even better when it looks pretty!  This morning I was making a couple batches of DIY All-Purpose cleaner for my home, and was thinking you might find the recipe useful too. Once in a while if I’ve been bad about cleaning (that never happens, right?!) I’ll use something stronger, but this works very well for all kinds of cleaning needs. I love that it’s easy and inexpensive to make. I spend enough on natural products as it is, so if something is fast to make that I can do myself I’d rather do that. Plus, that way you know exactly what you’re getting. Enjoy this time of sunshine and renewal! DIY All-Purpose Cleaner You will need:
Add all ingredients to the spray bottle. Make sure the lid and sprayer are closed tight, then shake to combine. It’s always a good idea to test the surface in a small area first to make sure the spray is safe, particularly when using essential oil. I like to use about 10 drops. Have a wonderful week, friends! Would love to see you this Sunday (4/29/2018) 9:00-10:30am for $5 Community Morning Flow Yoga at South Perry Yoga in Spokane, WA. There will be other classes we’re co-teaching coming up too. You can check the schedule here.  With love and gratitude,

Hi Friends!
I’ve missed you. Life’s been a little crazy. Have you ever experienced those times when you feel like you’re being pushed along by the Universe quickly? Lovingly of course. I do believe the Universe is always working for our greatest good whether we understand it from our limited perspective or not. Right now I’m deep in yoga teacher training at Abide Yoga.

Hello lovelies,
There's something I want to ask you to do with me. I feel like if I commit to it here with you and you decide to join me I’ll be motivated to follow through and keep my word. This fall I am going to spend a lot of time working on deepening my yoga practice. The main reason I love yoga might not be the reason most people do. The reason I love yoga is for it's ability to move stuck energy. That's why I personally am devoted to it at this stage in my life. I also believe that to stay youthful as we age it's vital to keep nutrients moving up and down the spine and yoga is also great for that. One of the things I really need to work on is my hamstrings. They're pretty tight and always have required some work. I'd like to challenge you and myself everyday for the next month to do a 5 minute seated wide legged forward fold. It might be nice to play some pretty music and light a candle too if you want to make it even more soothing. 
What's the energetic benefit of doing a seated forward fold? A lot of our emotions get stuck at the bottom of the spine so doing a forward fold is helpful in releasing emotions too, not just good for the stretching the ol' hamstrings.
If you feel stuff come up while you're doing a forward fold, let it out, celebrate and go ahead and cry if that's what your body calls for. It's all healing. It's all self love. When doing the forward fold you don't want to go all the way to your edge if you're holding it for a length of time. You want to be able to relax into it. Prop yourself up on as many pillows and blankets as you need. If having straight legs is too much of a stretch roll blankets up under your knees or use a pillow. Try propping your butt on a blanket or pillow to help lift you off the ground a little to fold forward better. Depending on your flexibility doing a forward fold doesn't even have to mean you actually fold forward if sitting up straight is enough of a stretch. 
I started out with bent knees until my hamstrings opened up a bit more.
Although I do relax into it, you do want to focus on bending forward from your hips as much as possible as opposed to bending your back. When you get to the spot you're comfortable folding to from your hips then relax into the pose from there.
Will you join me, please? Let's energetically support one another. If you're in my family and have tight hamstrings you should definitely do this with me (Haha! No pressure). It's even more important for those of us who have trouble with it and beneficial for all. Let's officially start the challenge Friday September 1st - Saturday September 30th but feel free to join in anytime. Keep me posted on how it's going on social media! Sending lots of love, Wendy Irene 
Hello dear one,
One of the things I feel super passionate about is helping people get their life in alignment with their soul, as well as become the healthiest, most joyful version of themselves they can be. I believe the key to creating a life full of purpose and well-being is to start with your energy. Everything happens on the energetic level first before manifesting into form. Energy and the chakra system are something I’ve studied extensively in School of the Modern Mystic as well as in my reiki training. Therefore, my favorite way to get to the root cause of any problem or stagnation is to work on getting your energy flowing freely, clearing any blockages in your chakras. Think of energetic blocks like having a blocked artery, where the blood flow is constricted and can’t properly circulate throughout the body. By lovingly and gently focusing on your chakras you can help clear any blockages you might be experiencing in them. Chakra 2 is a chakra most of us have stagnation in. To make a brief point, I also believe in a lot of ways our society is setup to keep us stuck in our chakra two, we are a lot easier to control that way. Think about it... if our energy is stuck in chakra 2 this is where addictions can start and also where blockages in abundance can occur. In order to create masterfully we want the energy to flow freely upward from chakra 2 into the higher chakras. 
Here’s a pose you can do to help get the energy flowing freely in your chakra two. Lay on your back, place the bottoms of your feet together and allow your legs to open up like butterfly wings. Place your hands in a triangle position over your second chakra or lower abdomen (thumb touching thumb, and pointer finger touching pointer finger).
If this position is uncomfortable for you flexibility-wise please do place blocks, pillows or rolled up blankets under your thighs at whatever height you need to support your legs. You want to be comfortable and not overly stretching in this position. 
Allow your breathing to slow down naturally, and focus on the area of your body with the triangle, the sacral chakra. You may want to envision the color orange filling up this area. Orange is the color of your second chakra. Lay here for a few minutes. Whenever you notice your attention is drawn away from your second chakra by your thoughts, that’s OK simply gently bring your attention back to your second chakra.
If focusing on your second chakra is too difficult for your mind to slow down you can also add in positive mantras to help you such as I am abundant. I am joyful. I love myself, or anything that seems fitting for your life and is gentle and loving. If you have any questions please do let me know. I’m here for you. Wishing you a beautiful week, friend. With love, Wendy Irene  "The aura given out by a person or object is as much a part of them as their flesh." ~ Lucian Freud Hi beautiful! In today’s video I am going to show you how to cleanse your aura using a selenite crystal wand. This will help clear your energy and make it as dazzling and sparkling as your gorgeous soul. It will also help remove any negative cords or attachments that may be holding you back. In love and light,
Wendy Irene  "Listen to the silence. It has so much to say." |
