Happy New Year!!
It's new years resolution time......I have to laugh as I look at last years list and find some of the same resolutions on this years list!!! I have to ask, "I am so bad that I have to change my whole self each year!!!"
I think not! So this meditation today is to say to me and to all of you "Stop!! You are enough just the way you are."
In the quietness of time and space sit peacefully and breathe in deeply and realize you are enough. you have done enough, shared enough, loved enough, helped enough. Just being you has touched thousands of people, I'm sure that you have been grateful enough, thankful enough and inspired enough. It seems each year we begin with diets to reshape our bodies, some do this for health, some do this for happiness, some just for vanity. Whatever your reason do it for the love of your body.
Lets begin;

• Imagine as you say to yourself, "I am enough. I am  loved, I allow my body to take its own shape and I love the shape of my body."
• Begin at the top of your crown, move your head, massage it. love your hair. Touch in and say, "I am enough, I love my hair just the way it is.
• Blink your eyes, massage your eyelids and eyebrows, open and close them. say"I am enough, I love my eyes just the way they are."
• Touch your ears, massages them both at the same time, "I am enough, I love my ears for all that they hear"
• Rub the tip of your nose, breath in and out slowly, say "I am enough, I love the shape and size of my nose"
• Trace your lips and form a kiss,say "I am enough, I love my lips and mouth"

Continue down the rest of your body, find something wonderful to be thankful for with each part of your body.
Saying the whole time "I am enought, I love......"
Using affirmation as you breathe in and exhale.
Know that you are enough, you are perfect, you are just the way you should be.
When you are done with your whole body, bless it, thank it for working perfectly, make a promise to be kinder to yourself by honoring its beauty and hard work.
Be inpired, be thankful, be grateful, be you,

Haiku Chain

Haiku Thursday
I was asked not too long ago, to answer a question. Seems like the thing to do on all the blog site now. So the question was easy enough when first asked but, once the words settle in this was a complex question. I thought hard about it and did not want to go into any deep complex answer so I thought I will answer it in haiku.
Who do you think you are????
A divine light beam,
a heartbeat in the night air,
a smile of insight.

Meditation Creations

Meditation Creations,
With the holidays here we are so busy that often we forget to take time for ourselves and breath.
Today's Meditation Creation is called
"Water Mediation"

Fill the bath with warm water, you can add bath salt, bubbles or essential oils to the water, anything that will calm you.
Playing soft music is good to.
Breath in to the count of 4,
Hold your breath to the count of 5, and Reflect
Exhale to the count of 6

Breath in saying" Water feels.."
Reflect on this..
Exhale..saying,  "Water is refreshing and warm"

Breath in saying, "Water is healing"
Reflect on this...
Exhale out saying  "Water is soothing."

Breath in saying, "Water is cleansing"
Reflect on this...
Exhale out saying  "I honor this time to cleanse and calm down."

Breath in saying " Water is relaxing."
Reflect on this...
Exhale out..saying,  "Thank you for water"

Now just lay back, listen to the music and enjoy this quiet time for yourself.
Smile at the gift you have just given to yourself.
Be inspired,
~Jean










Many blessing for the year 2010

Happy Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday for the Holiday's


While scouting the stores in my little town, what did I spy but a pink Christmas tree, I stepped into the store and there it did stand, all glistening and shinny just saying come in.


I looked all around and I saw what I wanted, a little pink book to write all my gratitude's in.
Placed on the table with candle and card, I started to write out my list and Thank You for life.





With so many events celebrating Christmas. The first one I went to was the Christmas Tree Festival. Look at this tree, all decked out in pink, I know that this one was the best of the event.





On to the Creche, where there was over 100 Nativity's Displayed. How beautiful this was fill with the Christmas Spirit.
Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year.

Jax has left the Tower

Jax exploring the snow

I'm letting go. I saw Tangled the 3D movie, Awesome, but it got me to thinking that its time to let the kittens go.  Jax has left the "Tower". I have had this little kitten since it was born in the Spring. I thought that maybe he should be an inside cat, but truly he needs to go out and explore the world. It is the right thing to do and I pray that I don't loose him. He is part of the world so I have let him go free to have a snow adventure.
Here is how I came to have kitten:
I wanted a cat for my studio and my husband said "no, we have two cats." So I brought each one into the studio and asked them if they would like to stay here and be my "studio cat." Each one looked around and promptly left for the outside world. So than I said I want a "kitten" and will get one in spring when kittens are born. Again, Kerry said "no!" Well not more than two days later a small beautiful gray and white cat shows up in my garage, and she's pregnant!!! I brought her into my studio, two days later she had five kittens so not only do I have a studio cat but studio Kittens. Isn't the Universe wonderful????
The mommy cat we named Gabby, and we kept two of her kitten. Jax and Sassy. Slowly they are learning about the outside world.


Sassy and Jax dreaming of adventures

 Be inspired,

Under The Mistletoe, Acrylic

Under The Mistletoe



A single moment, etched in time.

A dream burst open, like a shinning star on a moon lite night.

A blink, an instant, a move forward.

When all that you know,

changes to all that you dream.

Forever more and for always changed.



Merry Christmas,

May the wonders and magic of the hoiday season fill your heart

with peace and your home with joy.

Use the last line as your first line in your haiku.

It's all up to you,
I have met a new friend here,
a very blue friend.

A very blue friend,
who flew in to say hello,
Come travel with me.

Diabeticliving Wednesday

I just joined Diabeticliving, It's a good thing. " It's true. People with diabetes are more courageous, more resilient, more caring, and (said with a wink)better looking than your average person." Now who couldn't use this kind of support.


My fasting blood glucose this morning was 112
