Today’s post, an inspirational poem, Footprints In The Sand, is dedicated to you for your love and trust and my business coach and mentor Frederique Murphy who has supported me every step of the way on my entrepreneurial journey. When you have finished reading this post, feel free to come back here and browse the range of yoga and self care articles on offer to help you reduce stress and enjoy more Me-Time!!
I woke this morning with an air of expectancy and wonder bubbling in my heart. As I sat down to prepare for my daily meditation practice I had a strong desire to give thanks to my business coach and mentor Frederique Murphy for her support and attention to detail in helping me to stay the course and grow my business.
My Dream
Like most of you, I have dreams and aspirations for building and leaving the world a brighter place for all children. For those of you who know me, will know that whilst training to be a Yoga Teacher in Kerala, 2003, I had a vision of the whole world united in silence and prayer as we sat and meditated.
The Reality
For the last 9 months I have actively been working on bringing this dream to life and am creating Breathe Freely, my first online guided meditation course for beginners. As you’ll know from my newsletter and blog posts, the journey from “Moment of Thought to Moment of Manifestation” is proving a very enlightening, at times troublesome and very frustrating process.
All my limiting beliefs re my ability to complete and have a “good enough” product to offer you and what it means, for me, to be a successful entrepreneur have surfaced. At times I laugh at my own hang-ups and ways of self-sabotaging my success. All of that is for another post!
Through out this journey, Frederique and her team have supported and inched me through each obstacle and hurdle. Working with a mentor is a big investment in time and energy yet the rewards are priceless and I know the level of accountability has held me to task. There are so many shiny buttons and distractions in life, I know without my daily spiritual practice and mentoring support and guidance, from all angles, my idea of World Peace will still be nestling in my heart.
So, here is a few words to say thank you to you and Frederique and to wish all yogis and dear friends joy and peace on your journey.
Footprints In The Sand
Thank you for just being there and for always bringing me back into alignment when I slip off the wagon and don’t do the things which bring me closer to my dream;
Thank you for your patience, for your quiet guiding light when it all feels too much for me as I struggle to stay upbeat, positive and bright.
Thank you for the quiet nod, tilt of head which shows you care and understand the pain and frustration I’m going through.
And most of all
Thank you for your constant steady hand, your belief in me and my untold dreams.
Keep shining and smiling and keep being you. Thank you
To Close…
If you are struggling to finish your baby I hope these few words encourage you to look around and know that I am here, praying for you to stay the course, to dig deep, follow your dreams and keep trusting and walking in the footprints laid before. Although Footprints In the Sand is short and sweet, I hope you have someone in your life, who is there cheering you through the ups and downs of life, as you step up and follow your dreams. If there is someone special in your life, send them this blog post to say thank you, I appreciate you and watch the magic unfold.
