holiday's feeling





there is a feeling of holidays at home! with those young adults around, the house is different. i am very happy to have my big daughter at home, she is so creative and positive; poor girl, she is so white that as soon as she goes into sun, she is becoming red.
they are so different my 2 girls!!! astrid ( the older one) is cool, very peace and love
and zoé, the small one is so " bimbo" i mean she is our top model!!! what is nice about them, it is that they are very close to each other.

those few days i don't sleep well, i try to feel in holidays but my brain is still so busy, thinking of the application form we have to do next week for get funding from town for the dance compagny.
i used walks, meditation and yoga for make it better.
i am still smoking, i know it is going to be hard jobe to get off tobacco
this morning, the moon was still up when i wake up, took 2 pictures with my cellphone

full moon and meditation


for the full moon, i started to write on a meditation journal, for help me to go more deep into the practise. no yoga this morning, i took a walk with the dogs in the sugarcanne trying to keep on saying mantras but my mind was going everywhere
after, i seat in half lotus and stay 15 mn on meditate with mantras and mala. it is nice to make something new.all before breakfast! and for breakfast i had a dragon fruit also called pitaya: i love the taste and the color: so pinky
today is celebration of freedom = no more slavery.
it brings me a question: from what do i am slave ? i will say tobacco!!! i HAVE TO STOP SMOKING

listen to details from hasard


this sunday morning, i am alone at home. i woke up very early after a bad night with nightmares! went to yogamat for a slow coming back, when , last week i went too fast, pain was back!!! i enjoyed my salutations and the 10 postures after, enjoyed more the breathing, the foccus, the brain into it.
then i did small usual things..; i was hesitating to go to the beach because the sky is not that blue.. but i said to myself, push yourself big mamma!!!!! stop to be unsocial and lazzy : beach is ALWAYS good! ok, put on an uglly old beddinsuit and on the way to the car! but the car did not start at all! went back home and be even more lazzy! this is my day , in the garden and cooking will be the only thing to do, read and draw as a relax topic, yoga as much as i can!

choice


i worked too much and my lawerback is giving me hell, so i had to reduce yoga again, facing stress with meetings for get fundings for work next year's project. on friday, the last meeting , where i eared that i have to re-write all in a different way!
but for now: one week of holidays, 7 days for being at home with my daugthers and going to the beach, cooking, may be do some art..
i have to choose a picture for the new year card for the dance company, i don't like it forma and i was thinking of this one.
what do you think ?

art journaling





today, i spend some time with my daughter, after office's work, she is back from australia and it is very nice to be together, we did a collage on a chair , i also did collage for her, back to her room before she left for university in sydney.
i took some pictures and i will post them tomorow
for today, few pages from my art journal, those pages are here for a few days because i was too busy and i did not have time to do any art
this morning, i woke up at 5-30 am and my practise is becoming better, even if my lawer back is still very stiff. i did almost all first serie and before finishing asanas i did shalabasana, dhunarasana and the diamond posture , i am not sure of the name: virsjasana
it was nice to start again to feel the effect of almost the series, i did not do kurmasa yet and any lotus but i am on my way back. end of afternoon i also did 20mn meditation and 10 breath of pranayama!!!! yes!
i am reading lots of yoga's blog and i hope some bloggers will exchange with me because it will be good to feel support on yoga's road. when i write this, i feel a bit selfish.. and i know inside that help will come from me, only from my heart and my motivation have to keep high even if i practise alone, until i will be lucky enough to be on a group class! gess what: i miss mysore so much

art journaling for aedm




yesterday i did a few pages of my art journaling, once again, it did help me to feel better. my back is " in progress" but not well yet! on the road for being better

broken


today i feel empty, but this empty is full of sadness. it is a day for :
- just take a bag and walk away, in fornt of me, traveling with no dates for coming back;those kind of days it is how i feel, like i should travel with no dates for coming back, no more rules of social life, no more dance compagny, no more roots for may be find my own...
with this lawer back so painfull, i can't even have a bag! even walk, i seat a bit better and the pain is so stroong, no more yoga only seatting and breathing learning patience, learning that i HAVE TO REST;
i slept more than 2 hours this afternoon, i went twice to the yogamat today and will go again once because it is my only hope to get better.
drawing is difficult, my brain is so busy! reading a little, not even cooking, trying my best for resting
dreaming of travel! i was suppose to go to bali next week but it is postonned to january, my work's schedule is very heavy and i have to squeez my personnal choices according to work!! too much compromise in my dreamed life!!! good lesson, all is changing and coming so different that what we espect!

aedm16




i am trying to rest after the performance of lucy, yesterday. my back is still very bad injury and work on top of it was th worst thing to do. i feel like having no time at all. transition between postures are so painfull.
we performed 3 lucy and it was very nice feeling to do it alone and in the same time with others; we met on dance mat only 2 or 3 minutes before the end. it was strange and scarry for me to perform with a painfull back but i also learn trhought it.
need to find my roots. everuthing is too fast for me.
i did not draw for more than 2 days, impossible de bouger!
here is some pictures of the rehearsals, with no paints on the bodies( it takes 35 mn to paint all of us) and clothes on
