“Follow your instincts. That’s where true wisdom manifests itself.”

Oprah Winfrey

“The truth of a thing is the feel of it, not the think of it.”

Stanley Kubrick

Last week Philippe and his Mom took Sagey (age 7), Phoenix (age 5 ), Dakota (age 21 months), and Montana (age 21 months) on a Disney Cruise because A.  I needed to finish my book rewrite after all the amazing change and transformation we’ve experienced in the last six months and with the day-to-day of five kiddos and five yoga studios and two blogs it just wasn’t a-happenin, and B.  I ain’t a fan of cruises or Disney, so everyone won!  Plus my four youngest got to spend precious time with their grama.  Madison (age 14) stayed home with me because she didn’t wanna miss school.

 

While they were at sea our means of communication was email. Here’s one of my favorites:

 

“Cruise is awesome.  It was pirate day today, and we had a pirate party tonight.

 

Montana loves the light fixtures on the boat.  Every time he sees a new one (every 5 feet), he points up at the ceiling and smiles.

 

Sagey almost went on aquaduck slide twice today.  Both times she changed her mind and walked back down.  I said she could trust me, but she said she had to trust her own feelings.”

 

Namaste!

 

“By learning to contact, listen to, and act on our intuition, we can directly connect to the higher power of the universe and allow it to become our guiding force.”

Shakti Gawain

“A mom’s hug lasts long after she lets go.”

“There’s nothing like a mama-hug.”

Terri Guillemets

“Mother’s love is peace. It need not be acquired, it need not be deserved.”

Erich Fromm

“Mother’s love grows by giving.”

Charles Lamb

“All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel Mother.”

Abraham Lincoln

“To a child’s ear, “mother” is magic in any language.”

Super-mom Jen Murray:
I am so grateful to be a mom to twins Laney and Danny(10) and my youngest Jake(6).  My children have taught me what unconditional love truly is. Being a mom has brought so much joy to my life. As I help and watch them grow, they in turn help me grow!
  Constantly growing and changing I decided last year after practicing yoga for some years to do a teacher training program through Prana Power Yoga.  The benefits that I gained from practicing has helped me get through so much that I wanted to share that with others.  Now I am able to do just that.  Since graduating in April 2012, I immediately started teaching and sharing my love for yoga and all its benefits.  Through our own breath we can self soothe.  It sounds easy yet we are all faced with this “simple” challenge.
Loving what you do and being able to do what you love is a true gift.  My family and I benefit from this.  My kids notice a difference….especially my very intuitive Laney who always keeps me in check.   When I told Laney I was writing this blog for Super-Mom.  I read her what I wrote and she said “ You should put in that you yell at your kids.” Ha….I chuckled at her honest response and said you’re right.  I do yell at my kids when necessary sometimes even when its not necessary.  I also love them unconditionally and continue to work on loving myself unconditionally even if I yell at my kids ;)
I will continue to live my life the best that I can, making mistake and perfecting things as I go but always doing my best. I feel honored to be a part of such an amazing community that I found through yoga.  Forever thankful for my children, my family, and my yoga.    Without them all I would not be able to feel so grounded, supported, and loved.
