Hello There, Everybody

Hi, everyone!

I do miss writing here.  Before I know it, it's been 10 days.

I feel like the creative cogs are beginning to spin oiled again.  They are always seemingly necessarily accompanied by more meditation and yoga.  I have learned over the years to sit up in the ivory tower of my mind.  Before I know it, my body is trailing out behind me like a pair of jeans flapping on the clothesline, and I wonder why I feel flighty, anxious.  I cannot still my mind enough, nor be centred in my body enough, to write from any kind of interesting/interested space without those two beautiful, beautiful practices.

It is entirely unsurprising to me that when I do practice yoga and meditation that I remember my dreams more.  It is a never-ending source of amazement to me how different life looks when it is centred from within my body. All the good stuff happens from this space.  The world regains some of its mystery and beauty from here, too.  I feel earthed, I feel whole, I feel slightly less loopy :)

Although the cogs are becoming oiled, the thought of actually sitting down to write here has been a bit unappealing now I've started working more hours from home and therefore typing more.  On top of that, I have also been chatting a whole lot online to a certain person, and so the last thing I have felt like doing the past 10 days or so is sitting down and ... typing more in front of the computer!

But I shall return.  Last week was my first week of working from home and I actually put in an extra 12 hours of typing time that were due to glitches and ironings out and stuff-ups that saw me transcribing without a foot pedal for a few days.  I plan on using some of those extra 12 hours on more edifying things like blogging and smoothing clay over the next few weeks :)

I do miss this space so!  Someone commented to me a few weeks ago how so many blogs across the board have slowed or halted completely in favour of Facebook.  I admit, I am particularly guilty of Facebooking myself into a frenzy.  But Facebook can never replace the likemindedness of blogging, for me.

I love this time of year.  It is a time of rebalance, after the heat of the Summertime and the relaxing of every sort of timetable possible.  Now, as the earth balances herself, with the Northern and Southern hemispheres experiencing the same beautiful sweet sort of weather, and the earth approaches the equinox, where day and night are equal, I find myself returning slowly to greater balance also.  How about you, peeps?  Wots up wif you?
