Quote of the day:

“It’s all about the power of the focus of your mind.”

 

When I was little my mom used to make me eggies n cheese.  This was after I’d ice-skated from 5-10 am.  I was training for the Olympics at age 5. Then I’d go to kindergarten.

 

A lotta other stuff went on during my childhood. Not the best ever.  Even as a little little child I understood the power of focus.  If I thought and talked about and focused on something bad, I felt bad.  And more bad stuff appeared.  If I thought and talked about and focused on something good, more good stuff appeared.  The abuse didn’t stop, but I noticed that the more I focused on good and happy stuff, the more good and happy stuff I lived.  And so even though I dealt wit some serious sh**, I manifested some pretty awesome sh** too.  Like my tennis coach inviting me to come live with him in Florida so he could train me to go pro (for free—my parents were broke).

 

I used to think that I was magic. That I could create things with my mind.  Now I know that this is true and I’m here to teach it to you.

 

And as a special added bonus, my childhood gave me the incredible focus that has helped me to create everything I have.

 

Have the best day ever!
Namaste!

“Ordinary people believe only in the possible. Extraordinary people visualize not what is possible or probable, but rather what is impossible. And by visualizing the impossible, they begin to see it as possible.”

A quick and friendly tip from one Super-mom to all you Super-heros out there.

1.  Get on your yoga mat.  Often.  I get up at 4am to do it daily (Come join me at Prana at my predawn practice seven days a week!), but whatever you can do.  It’s what you do most of the time that matters.  Don’t beat yourself up if you can’t do it daily.  Do what you can.

 

2.  When you’re in your favorite pose, feeling amazing—feeling the stress and the fear melting off of your body, the past and the future fading into the distance, the NOW ever present and a feeling of peace and “all is well” enveloping you, really FEEL how this feels in your body, mind, and Spirit, and take a Spiritual “snapshot” of it.  Really feel the essence of it.

 

3.  While you’re feeling the essence of this feeling, visualize yourself moving through your day feeling this feeling. See yourself in different situations, both easy and fun and challenging and annoying, still feeling this feeling.

 

4.  Watch what happens.  ;)

 

Have the best day ever!

Namaste!

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.
