Time Off

TIME OFF
This November, December are the first time since 2009 that I haven’t served others by offering a Retreat. In this pivotal time of year, this is when we set the foundation for the New Year to be aligned clearly with our intentions. This doesn’t just happen. It requires TIME OFF to go DEEP into your desires, whether a day off, a weekend or a week off.

Two years ago at this time, I set my intention to PLAN Time Off and discontinue my November/December offerings at least for a year. I would get back on track prioritizing MY greatest intentions during this Time Off. Those of you who’ve been with me on Prana del Mar Retreats know directly from me my two MOST important desires, one of which is to finish some of my books.

This dedicated time off would be 6 months to focus on me. Just like I teach to focus on your greatest joy; to do what makes you happy. I would take part of this time as a sabbatical.

I had a Great Plan.
1. Business of Alchemy. Close up anything open.
2. Holiday on a beach to unplug and do nothing.
3. Be with family
4. Write and write and record new Podcast
5. Private intentions (PDM tribe know)
6. Edit
7. Work with publisher
*All while playing every day.

This is me stepping fully into the power of the sacred feminine to nurture my own well-being and happiness.

Well, things didn’t work according to plan, exactly.
I had both a mystical and physical healing crisis & evolution.

I am taking 17, 18, 19 December completely OFF.

I will continue, after this note, staying off of Social Media (I have a team managing it for me), no emails, no phone texts, no FB Messenger, no instagram DM’s, no whats app, no hidden FB messenger messages, no Twitter DM’s. For three days I am formally taking Time OFF.

Time Off is different than a Time Out.
Time Out is unplanned.
Time Off is planned.

This is me sharing that I am gifting myself 3 days.

This is a different experience than being sick, or unable to do anything, stuck in bed. My eyesight is improving, my brain is hurting and healing still but I’m over the worst of it.

I will not be able to work 14 hours per day every day like I was but I don’t want to. I will be more mindful.

I am creating a new definition of balance steeped in my own nature of the sacred feminine, no longer stuck in old conditioning of total self-sacrifice, but instead honoring my needs as I also continue to hold space for others to love themselves, love their day, love their life!

Thank you for your love, your prayers, meditations, and most of all thank you for your kindness. I know who you are and appreciate you with all my heart and soul.

xoxo

PS Please follow my lead, plan some time off and set your intentions for 2019. I’ll share my free Intention Packet in comments with support from a friend.

Harness the Power of the New Moon FREE Intention Booklet

New Moon energy (when the Moon is directly between the Earth and the Sun and not visible from Earth) is a potent time to align and create that which you desire to action your Dharma. It is a time of NEW beginnings and increased energy. It is about starting afresh, planting new seeds and connecting to your higher self. During this high-energy time (the 2 days before, day of and 2 days after) it is important to focus on what you want and stop giving energy to those things you fear.
It is a time of self-expression empowered with the knowledge that once you nurture your own desires and passions you can manifest your most important intentions. It is about birthing new ideas and activating the creative life force in yourself by focusing on your dreams, goals, inspiration, mission and vision to support your happiest life!
Love yourself, love your day, love your life! Silvia Mordini

Mantra to Protect Your Mind From Negative Thoughts

Daily I chant silently and aloud Om Tare Tuttare Ture Swaha. My crystal Mala blessed by Amma is always on my right wrist. It holds this mantra. 💚
.
“Tara #mantra is often used to overcome physical, mental or emotional blockages. #GreenTara is very active and steps down to help all the beings. Only thing required is that we need to resign and let go of our clinging to a particular outcome, because, to cling to a particular outcome is often self-defeating, as it creates unhappiness and agitation, particularly when it involves other people. The more we have Tara’s non-grasping attitude the more happy we are. When chanting the Tara mantra, we need to let go and bring the energy back into ourselves. This will generate immense inner peace and clarity.
:
Tara mantra protects the mind
:
#Goddess Tara is truly amazing. The #Tara mantra protects the mind from negative thoughts and vibrations. By its devotional chanting, one’s awareness expands and then you can feel the power of the blessings of Tara, who is called as the mother of all buddhas. She is extremely powerful, #compassionate and very forgiving. The mantra is truly very calming and relaxing. It helps center and calm the noise of the mind which is hyperactive.
.
People who are chanting the mantra often finds that their inner compassion is awakened.
.
Friendliness and tolerance flower in to our being as the qualities of Tara #manifest in us as we chant the Tara mantra. It is believed that reciting her mantra 108 times daily invokes her swift blessings.”

Manifest Kindness

When we live our kindness so much so that it becomes no different than breathing, it simply becomes a part of us.

May we all manifest a world where kindness is almost invisible.

Pronoia Harnesses the Power of Yes

PRONOIA: the opposite of paranoia; the belief that the universe is conspiring in your favor.

I have made a point at the beginning of each year to make a personal “yes list.” I’ve been doing this for eight years. I know it works. Write down the key things that give you strength and inspiration. Ask yourself: Do the items on this list support you in waking up each day with enthusiasm to live your best life? Does what you list empower you to feel more passionate about your intentions? Think about the power of YES in your life:

1. Are you conscious and alert to your yes choices?
2. Do you say yes more than you say no? Why?
3. What does saying yes mean to you?
4. What do you say yes to? Make a personal yes list.

This year my yes list contains yoga, meditation, travel, writing, tribe, self-care, kindness, and unplugging.

Harnessing the power of intention means being confident as you say YES. When you decide you are clear on what you say yes to, then everyone and everything is there to support you. As is written in The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, “When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”

Finally, don’t forget to post copies of your yes list where you can see and reference it everyday. You can even take a photo of it and put it as your screen saver.

WHAT DO YOU SAY YES TO IN 2017?

I Say YES to Happiness!

Excerpt from my FREE Intention Setting Workbook: How to Manifest Happiness

 

8,760 Hours in 2017 Mind Map Your Intentions

Remember there are 168 hours/week and 8,760 hours/year.
Where would you like this time to go in 2017? Organize your core values and key intentions into into categories such as happiness, fun, family, creativity, work, spirituality, giving etc. Consider turning these categories into Mind Maps.

HOW TO CREATE MIND MAPS
A term first made popular by British author Tony Buzan, “mind mapping” is a style of graphically depicting concepts related to a particular topic or idea. For the purpose of intention setting, a mind map is one way to visually represent your inner creativity and identify what lights you up. This can be a great place to start because there are no rules. A mind map evolves organically and can reveal your most authentic desires and needs. Add drawings, words, scribbles, color and anything that you connect with in a real way.

One of the most powerful mind maps is as simple as a circle. Inside the circle exists everything you could ever want or be, outside the circle is anything that you do not want. (Sometimes, it’s necessary to know what you don’t want first so that you can stay laser focused on what you do want.) Use your senses to identify what is inside your circle. How do you want to feel? What does it sound, smell, taste like? Use language that awakens your spirit and gets you excited!

Exercise: Mind Mapping
Draw a circle and inside the circle write what you want, outside what you don’t want.
Mind Map #1: Health
Mind Map #2: Happiness
Mind Map #3: Yoga
Mind Map #4: Fun
Mind Map #5: Finances
Mind Map #6: Giving
Mind Map #7: Personal Development (Learning)

Map Your Intentions to Manifest

When you break down the process of what true intention really is, you will find a process that unfolds before you. By applying this process, you create your intention. With a well defined MAP of your intentions they become easier to MANIFEST. On my #yogaretreats & trainings I will help support you through this process in practical and loving ways.

1. Know your purpose (Vision/Dharma): Your reason behind your intention is purpose. Having a purpose infers a more determined path.
2. Design your intent: This means a specific, measurable (quantitative and qualitative), plan of action. What, when, why, where, how.
3. Improve your aim (GPS): By improving your aim, you add to your target effort directed toward attaining your intention. Remember it’s hard to make a bull’s eye if you don’t know where you’re aiming.
4. Include smaller items that will take little effort: manifesting smaller things actually creates a steady flow of energy and teaches us to appreciate the smaller goals as well.
5. Manifest your Intentions: The goal is the result of your #intention, put into action and attaining it by thought out effort and consistent focus.
