No class this Sunday, but instead, enjoy a free recorded guided meditation based on the Four Forces of Purification. This practice helps you release limiting thoughts and reset your mindset for greater peace and clarity.
“In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun.” — Mary Poppins.
Life has been full of uncertainty recently. I’m between homes, not sure where I’ll sleep tonight or what the future holds. I’ve struggled financially, faced roadblocks in my career, and found myself overwhelmed by everything I can't control. But through it all, I’ve learned something unexpected: that the people in my life—the friends who’ve opened their homes to me—have been my greatest teachers.
Over the past months, I’ve stayed with some incredible people who have taught me how to navigate these challenges with grace. Muriel reminded me to focus on gratitude and the power of my thoughts. Tiny encouraged me to stop limiting myself and to see each day as a gift. And Mayan, with her beautiful routine and commitment to wellness, has shown me that even in the toughest times, there is space for joy, self-care, and growth.
These friendships have been a living, breathing example of what it means to open your heart and let life guide you rather than trying to control it. The new moon in Sagittarius has been a reminder that I don't need to have everything figured out. I don’t need to force things to happen. Instead, I can trust that what’s meant for me will come when the time is right, and I don’t have to navigate this journey alone.
“You can’t go against the wind, you know. But you can always go with it.” — Mary Poppins.
Recently, Mayan and I watched Mary Poppins, and it brought everything I’ve been learning into sharp focus. While Mary Poppins may be the title character, the true transformation happens with Mr. Banks. He starts off rigid and detached, but through a series of challenges, he learns to let go of control, embrace the joy around him, and allow life to unfold. His redemption doesn’t come from striving harder but from surrendering to the process and choosing a lighter, more open way of living.
This story is a perfect metaphor for my journey. I’ve spent so much time resisting the winds of change, trying to force things to go according to my plan. But now, thanks to the wisdom of my friends and the guidance of the universe, I’m beginning to see that redemption comes when you let go of the need to control everything and simply trust that life will carry you where you need to go.
“Anything can happen if you let it.” — Mary Poppins.
I’m realizing that the transformation I’ve been waiting for doesn’t happen through force. It happens through surrender, trust, and the willingness to open myself to the goodness that’s already within me and the world around me. My friends' lessons have been an anchor in this process, teaching me to stay grounded in gratitude, embrace life as it comes, and always choose love over fear.
Even though the past 400 days have felt heavy at times, I’m trusting that my efforts, the kindness I share, and the lightness I choose to bring into the world will eventually return to me. It’s not too late for things to change, for the circle to close in, and for everything to come together in its own time.
