I caught myself in a little white lie (again).  It was super small.  Insignificant really.  But, the words just found their way out of my mouth.

Do you do it?  Of course you do!  Well maybe if you have reached a state of pure self love & unwavering acceptance of your authentic soul all the time…maybe then you don’t ever speak them.  But, I know I am talking to a human on the other side of this technology device and we all have a tendency to fall into our shadow selves. We see ourselves as somehow less than and not enough.  We are conflict avoiders.  We are afraid to let our true colors be known. We are out to prove something.  And the fib reasons can go on.  I am here to confess the ones I occasionally fall victim to:

3 little white lies:

1. I have exaggerated a story to ensure I am validated & accepted.
2. I have played down my true beliefs so as not to make another person uncomfortable.
3. I have agreed with someone’s comment when I don’t truly agree.

I know. I know. I should know better since I know where all those little white lies go. They are sent out into the universal wave lengths which means I will be given more life situations where I am tempted to hide behind my shadow side through tiny lies.  Oh great.  And if that wasn’t enough, as soon as those false words are spoken, guess where all those falsities get shoved down into?  You guessed it — into the body!

​Yet just another reason I love my yoga practice.  Since the body never lies, yoga helps to uncover the truth and shed the old lies that have unconsciously been shoved deep into the fascia, cells, nerves, etc.  When you harness the breath & melt into yoga postures, you get the old inauthentic energetic kinks out and you shed light onto your true self.  You will know what it feels like to truly heal from the inside out.

If you can feel it, you can heal it.

As you feel the tensions release, know that you are tapping into your spiritual self where you have the realization that truth will always set you free.  And insert one of my favorite Dr Wayne Dyer messages:

First remember that you are a spirit in a human body rather than a body with a spirit.

We are here to spiritually grow, love, co-create, and above all else to forgive ourselves and others (from all those lies).  So embrace this human experience and live it from a point of truth; your growth will accelerate and others will want to join your party since true authenticity is contagiously sexy. Before I close today’s chat, try on this cool mantra outfit (one size fits all):

I am real.  I am honest with compassion.  I am a truth vibe trend setter.

Trust me when I say; when you wear that outfit it will feel like you are giving yourself a big hug (and I’m not exaggerating). Plus, you will get the most compliments EVER when you wear that outfit!

​Until our paths cross again.
In love & light,
Wendy

The jaguar was roaming through tall grass perpetually searching. She was a mirror reflection of my questioning mental energy looking for the right place to call home.   And then, her feline gentle eyes  looked at me and said “wherever you go ~ your home is always inside yourself”.

My journey as a shamanic practitioner has been humbling and awakening.  The simplistic yet powerful truth is revealed to me again and again, and as I grow, I am inspired to share the energetic wisdom with others.

I’ve always known myself to be a seeker of truth and since I landed in a small lake town of Minnesota mother earth provides the nourishment to ground me in the now.

The earth element helps us to feel at home within ourselves.  

But so often, we loose our stable footing in our quest to be it all and do it all.  Life moves fast and we try to move faster which can easily spin us into searching mode away from the knowing within.

I welcome you now to slow down your quest for just 8 minutes of yoga.  Feel the earth and ignite the meridian energetic pathways that help connect you to the home within; making your connection with the outside world a smooth voyage.

I am at home with myself.  I am grounded.  I am connected to my current world.  

Be sure to float gratitude out to the wisdom of your energetic body and the spirit world that is always by your side; particularly mother earth with this exercise.
Until our paths cross again.  Shining love and light on you,
Wendy Billie

I can still feel the wind blowing through my hair.  I grew up riding my silver bullet moped all over the town of Minot, ND where I had the pleasure of open roads and wide lanes (Kramer would have loved it; insert Seinfeld episode reference).  The gas friendly mobile took me so many places and instilled a freedom at a young age my memory loves to recall.
But right next to the freedom memories, I have scars on the knees that remind me of the many gravel road crashes.  The tears. The pain. The sadness of spending what little babysitting money I had saved to mend the blinkers lost in the moments where the magic bullet hit the ground and left me on bended knee.
We have all skinned up our knees a time or two in our lives but when we let the emotional pain of the injury linger on …and on …it etches a scar deep within well below the surface of the obvious.
In yoga, we call these etched in mental or psychological impressions; samskaras.   They become embedded so deep within us that they can create emotional patterns that cause pain and discomfort or conversely; joy and freedom!
Enjoy this short 12 minute audio where I was interviewed on Health Matters radio talk show.  I explore the body & energy connection:  The Body & Energy Connection with Wendy Billie on Health Matters Talk Radio
Yoga. Breath. Awareness.  All amazing tools to break through the old samskaras.
Until our paths cross again,
Wendy Billie
