A Bonus Day ~ "Weaving a Life"

Finished Amulets!!

Michelle Clark

 Hey there ~ my glowing energy buddies!  We were Thriving at the Stone Totem Yoga Studio this weekend! We were blessed to have the beautiful Weaving Yogini Michelle Clark at our studio, teaching "Weaving a Life".  This is an amazing process that allows you to look within.  Weaving is a way for the modern person to awaken ancient cellular memories.  Everyone had the chance to explore with fibers and work with hand looms to create a unique amulet that holds the intention of how we would like to live our lives. We chose colors and fibers that intuitively called to us.  Then we wove and sewed together a little medicine pouch or Amulet. Our Amulets hold (on a small piece of paper) our written word of intent!  There is great power in words and we explored and discussed with great tenderness just which word we would choose for ourselves.  This was a group of women gathering in a safe sacred space, exploring their inner most desires for how they want to walk through their world. We laughed ~ We cried ~ We wove!

Weaving our Intentions!

My days have been crazy busy for the last year or so. I've been focused on healing and refining my life on all levels. This weekend was all about having my own experience.  I wasn't teaching or supporting anyone.  It was my opportunity to be a student, a child at play and a woman at work. I told Michelle that I felt this was the next phase of my healing process.  A million years ago I used to weave baskets.  Weaving with fibers was familiar  and yet very unique.  It was very meditative and I look forward to the next weaving circle. Working with Michelle was a beautiful Bonus Day for me and everyone that attended.  Given the chance - all you Thrivers should connect with Michelle and experience weaving for yourselves.

We're planning a little project for our men folk. In the weeks to come we will be creating a Garden Loom outside our studio.  Why should we be the only ones to benefit from this amazing process?  Our men are in the background - our support and inspiration.  It's time to bring them into our circle of healing and weaving, so that they may experience all the magical energy that can be generated. Shazam- nothing like a strong man with a hammer!  I'm just so excited to be living and surrounded with all this fabulous expanding energy.

Weaving a Life!

 Lesson:  Take some time for yourself.  Give yourself the gift of creative expression.  This will allow you to grow and speak to your soul while having fun.  Time to step off the "gerbil wheel" of life. I don't want to hear "but I'm not creative or crafty". You are creative - you just need to open the door and allow your inner child to pop out.  If it make you feel a little uncomfortable .....that's great!  It means you've touched a tender spot that needs further examination!
