Tidy and Clean Equals Calm and Serene

The Full Moon made me want to clean everything in sight, but particularly the corners that stress me out. They stop me being radiant as they are in my eyeline - no escaping them (as with other corners)..

So yesterday I stayed in PJs all day and dealt with *some* of my clutter. A lot of it just needed homing - you know "everything has a place and everything in its place"!

The kitchen is transformed and is as beneficial as any meditation could ever be.

My Mum spent 20 years trying to drill into me that cleanliness was close to Godliness (without using those exact words) and Mum, guess what I've finally got it!

So here's my before and after shots:

The "Gods" blessed me with two rewards for my efforts

1) I found that JADE pictured above which is simply beautiful and

2) I found a half onion, that "spoke to me" as follows - I know I am getting like Prince Charles speaking to the plants but I don't mean literally. Look:

So now, I just need to build on it and do MORE.......

I hope this Full Moon brings transformation for us all. After a heavy couple of years astrologically, we are now coming out of a dark tunnel into the light.

I can feel it I hope you can too.

Much love, Liska xx

We Are One

The potato is connected to water.

Water is connected to the moon.

The moon is connected to the sun.

The sun is connected to us.

We are all connected to each other...

Why am I getting so deep on a Wednesday afternoon?

Well... Because... I went to the market today and spent £15 on fruit and veg and the trader told me we're facing the biggest potato shortage in 100 years.

In his 20 years in the trade he's never seen anything like it...

And it's because it was wet when they wanted to plant them...

Now I am sat in a cafe having lunch and the only reading material is a copy of The Sun where I am reading that the US once plotted to blow up the moon... But there were worries about its effect on tides... amongst other things.  Now that I am back home I have Googled it and it seems The Guardian wrote about the very same thing back in the year 2000, so I wonder why The Sun is writing about it today?

The moon yes does effect tides and as we are mostly water our moods and cycles are also effected...

It is a good time to talk about the moon with it being a full moon in Gemini today... 28th November 2012

So in the 28 days of the moon's cycle if you experience fluctuating moods you can balance this with kirtan kriya....

I should have told myself that when I wrote this bad mood blog post on Monday.  But then I haven't done any yoga since Aaron was born despite having been a teacher for 6 years....

I really need to step up to the mark... Today I dug out a jacket that is too tight. Don't get me wrong I am wearing it and it zips up... Just!!!

BUT I wore it till I was 6 months pregnant... it took being 6 months pregnant BEFORE it got tight.

So I am fatter now than I was when pregnant. I perish the thought.

I am going to be forty soon and do not want to be fat at forty :-(

So with that I spent £15 on fruit and veg today and am going to enthusiastically start juicing again.
