Spin Goddess Ramble.....

Spin Goddess is a community of 

rabble-rousers

zombie-igniters

baby butt-slapping first breath-ers

a community, a sangha.

Being in Spin Goddess moves you FROM a "shared ride" - off the bus driven by someone else to a pre-destined route - INTO your own car driving on the road of your choice (express-way or scenic route).  When you look around, the roads are shared by fully-alert drivers - no phones, texting, eating, nodding - off while driving --- FULLY engaged, wind blowing through your hair and enjoying the scene.  You wave to your friends .... and we're all friends....

My life as Spin Goddess propels me forward.  My work is the "fire in my belly".  It includes those I love and requires a generous spirit.  My success is enjoying the life of my creative work on ALL levels:  being a catalyst for positive growth in others' lives and my own.

A catalyst for positive growth ..... my success is based on my effectiveness .....YOUR 

success.

So, the question is.......WHAT ARE YOU UP TO?

Take a few minutes and a deep breath.  What does THE GOOD LIFE mean to YOU?

Start with a couple of words.

  

*In your last moments, as you're looking back on your life, 

what would it take to make you smile and say "My life is complete!"

Spinning includes a spiritual approach -- it's "Soul-Infused" Empowerment.

We all have our own paths: 

Hinduism

Buddhism

Christianity

Landmark Forum

Law of Attraction

Metaphysics

As my inner life changes/my vibrations raise, I've learned a couple of things about my LifeSpace:

1)  My energy level has increased creating an expansion of time and an opportunity for 

energy reserves.  Now, to invest that time - expanse in deeper pleasure/relaxation/

to refill my cup, so to speak.

2)  My vision and inner, upward movement has been great -- FEELS GOOD! - but...I've begun to vibrate/move faster than my physical body is able at this weight and in its present condition. (my mind and ideas are working faster than my body)

So.....as my appreciation for pleasure takes root, my attention/care for this most 

miraculously beautiful vehicle for walking this great spirit is receptive to love and good feeding/movement -- to release the now unnecessary; to transform the sluggish into the laser-fast  (lose weight).

*Release

*Transform

*Grow  (till the soil, plant, tend, weed, protect)

I'm trying something new and I challenge you to do the same.  Become aware of your present frame of mind by tracking your actions.

Track:

1) Relaxation, sleep hours, dreams, meditations, beauty, pleasure, SELF CARE -

just how much care do you give yourself?

2) Your Movement as transformation, meals (portions and types of food), vitamins, SELF CARE - just what are you doing with yourself?

3) Level of Generosity - cards and letters sent, gifts, quality time spent connecting deeply with others - how do you show your gratitude to others?

4) Career Hours spent, career development, progress -- not just your JOB, but your life's WORK. - what do you want to DO with your life?

Picture a tree.  At the base you have the ROOTS.  Then, the TRUNK standing strong and at the top are the BLOOMS.  

ROOTS: the true foundation.  It's the level of APPRECIATION.....LIFE.  SELF CARE starts here.

Beauty, Body, Release, Transformation, Restoration, Growth (listen to your own ideas)

TRUNK:  the DEDICATION level......CREATE.  What is your GOOD WORK?  This is the level of your career development and generosity.

BLOOMS:  CONFIRMATION.  ENJOYMENT.  The visible effects of invisible work - your good FORTUNE!  Joy, wealth, radiance, transcendence.

.... and, of course, then it begins again ......

.....Spin Goddess as Vintage Dealer................

Re-Purpose / Re-Frame / Re-Create LIFE for you ..... BY YOU!

In the vintage business (and just being the daughter of "old stuff" officianados), I've loved visiting homes where older people have lived their lives - seeing their habits, smelling their cooking and old perfume smells, listening to the birds

and seeing things out their windows as they did - finding new uses for their "old stuff" (a form of recycling/reviving).  The stuff is great, but their lifespace - no matter what it was like - reflected what they had come to value (knowing one day, 

someone will be tending to my space as well).  An architectural dig (of sorts) of the not-so-distant past - sometimes 50 years ago - with children's clothes still in their closets - the children now in their 60s.  What they saved so long they forgot about, 

choosing instead to surround themselves with it and live in the only room left - a bedroom/living room-- womb-like living.  A sacred burial ground filled with memories keeping them from ever feeling alone or to take a walk down memory lane

when they felt more needed and useful.  The "glory" days.  But this is not bad....it's just a pattern of comfort and time.

(A visible reminder of what I may do with my invisible beliefs and fears)

I've learned from these people and their houses.  

Not only was I gleaning collectible household items, I learned about what we DO.  

How I apply what I've learned is TOTALLY my creation.  I find comfort in the words of BOOKS by authors I love and trust.  

Also through RITUALS that bring security.  Simple things like coffee in the mornings, work, social life, church, bedtime rituals, 

television viewing.  And certainly through choice of HOUSEHOLD ITEMS - their look and function (if there is one).  

Their lives are not so different from the pattern of our own lives.  But it's not just "stuff" that's passed along.

The books, rituals, household items share a FEELING - a slight overlapping of memory and habit on a level of Dream.

It's subtle, invisible.

My BELIEFS are invisible.

My INTENTIONS are invisible.

My LOVE is invisible.

My LIFE is invisible.  

Who I AM is invisible.

Until you're comfortable exploring/shaping the INvisible, the visible will never be real.  At the end of your life, when you've entered your womb-like living, those books, rituals, utensils will just be things you USED.  Who you ARE --THAT'S what you'll be taking with you.  The movement of your life - the invisible is all that's REAL.  

This invisibility is the common link of all people.  Some call it LOVE / LIFE.  We are FAMILY.  

Let's LIVE our DREAMS --

that's what we're HERE for ----making the invisible visible.

What will YOU make visible in 2013?
