paige premium skyline drives and attitude


hey readers, this is going to be an inspirational post. so, grab a piece of chocolate or a cookie and keep reading. the energy is gonna change. and several of you have told me it is a bad week, and last week was a bad week. ok, i hear you all. it is going to get better. we are in a wacky cycle. uh, just read the newspaper or don't...it won't make you feel any better.
so, you all know the willing suspension of disbelief? that's how we are gonna play it today. there is no stress here. go ahead, try it... only good things happen in this post. your chakras are open and ready to receive. mentally clear your mind of the negative clutter. how? ok, stop reading now if you are not ready...

picture youself in an outdoor place of nature that you like. it can be the beach, the mountains or a forest. it is your choice. smell the air around you, hear the sounds, feel the terrain of the place you have chosen. this is your safe spot. you can stay here or come back to it any time you want. this is the place you are going to start your meditation. just relax and enjoy your surroundings. feel it. really feel it. whenever the third dimension day gets too much for you, come here . it is your place and you can bring whatever you want with you. you know, chocolate has NO calories or fat grams when eaten in your safe place. and you can change your outfit a dozen times or more until it is perfect.
if mental visualiztion is hard for you, lie down, shut the lights and close your eyes. it gets easier with practice. really.
i like to go into a forest with cool, dry air and the scent of pines. some people like the beach with the smell and sound of salt water. any place in the outdoors works. take the sense of tranquility with you when you leave. sometimes it might stay with you the whole day. other times, only a minute or two until you answer your cell phone or walk in the door to work...
anyway, you know where your place is now. and you can invite whomever you want at anytime. sweet dreams. see you on the astral plane.

I will def. come back to read your entire post, but I had to say that this shot is really great. I love how cool and nonchalantly the 'gale is thrown over your shoulder. Understated, hip, chic.

oh, this is such a wonderful post! i often feel overwhelmed by the craziness that comes with each day, and this is a great tool to help me relax and find calm.
i should try this before i sleep. my mind always races when i try to go to sleep that i end up lying awake for the longest time.

also, such attitude in that pic. i love it!

camile, thank you. yes, do try this at bedtime. and if you get nervous or edgy, surround the outline of your bed with white light.you can fill your enitre room with white light. it will keep the night monsters away...colr meditaion next after you all know how to get to your safe place.
