I’m Celebrating My Two Year Yoga Anniversary
Today is a new day, new week, new month and new year. Today marks my two year Yoga Anniversary and this year I made the decision to take my yoga into a new direction. This mainly came when I found myself having quiet intimate time alone with God when I would get ready for my daily yoga practice. Who says that you can’t have dialect with God any and everywhere because believe me you absolutely can. I found that over the past six months I have found that every time I get on my mat God and I just seem to flow. In 1999 when I first committed my life to God I was instantly filled with the Holy Ghost and received the gifts of tongues and what I have found is that when I am on my mat they just roll and flow.
My practices are a bit different then what other yogis may do. The norm is the serene music playing in the background but for me its gospel music playing. The words, anointing that they were created with and the happy feeling you receive when listening to them just overflow and takes my practice to another level.
I DECLARE Gods Dream for my life is coming to pass. I will not be stopped by people, disappointments or adversities. God has solutions to every problem I will ever face already lined up. The appointed people and appointed breaks are in my future. I will fulfill my destiny. This is my Declaration!
My words to anyone considering starting yoga is this:
It’s an amazing journey that will make you take time to learn your body, get in tune with your spirit and serve as a key component in living a better life. When I first started my yoga journey on February 6, 2015 I had no idea the doors that would open, the amazing yogis turned sisters I would have and the ability to see my body transform in ways that I could have never imagined. It’s important to remember that everyone’s yoga journey will be different because no one journey is the same. Example, when I first tried the wheel pose I thought to myself that I would never be able to master it and although it’s not completely mastered you will see below the progress that I have made within a year.
A strong person is not the one who doesn’t cry. A strong person is the one who is quiet and sheds tears for a moment, and then picks up her sword and fights again!
I’m not the person I was yesterday, last week or last year. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been. Trials and tribulations may come but yet will I stand. This #wheelpose / #urdhvadhanurasana is a symbol of my strength.
“Faith is about believing even when you can’t see it.” ~Pastor @joelosteen
I DECLARE Ephesians 3:20 over my life. God will do exceedingly, abundantly above all that I ask or think. Because I honor Him, His Blessings will chase me down and overtake me. I will be in the right place at the right time. People will go out of their way to be good to me. I am surrounded by God’s FAVOR. This is my declaration.
Every Story has an end, but in Life every end is a new beginning. I thank God for new beginnings. An opportunity to serve him and walk in my calling.
I declare I have the grace I need for today. I am full of power, strength, and determination. Nothing I face will be too much for me. I will overcome every obstacle, outlast every challenge, and come through every difficulty better off than I was before. This is my declaration. ?
