"In the very beginning of classes, I have different themes that I work with depending on the class. Let’s say we’re working with injury. I would give the students a few moments to scan their body using their breath, like they would use fingertips to feel inside for an area that’s crying out for help. It could be a heartbreak, or it could be a low back injury, or a headache. Once students connect with that, we start questing for moving the breath through that area. We keep that focus for the entire practice session. That way, we are moving the energy through the area, and it starts healing." - Ana Forrest . . . #anaforrest #breath #intent #wordsofwisdom #dothework

#regram @vegan_veganfood Roasted Butternut Squash Soup with Crispy Chickpeas By @plantbased.traveler... Recipe: Soup: 1 medium butternut squash 1 tbsp vegan butter or oil of choice 1 small or 1/2 of a large apple 3 cups of filtered water + 1/2 tbsp veggie base or 3 cups vegetable broth 1/2 tsp ground ginger Pinch of cayenne pepper Salt and black pepper to taste Chickpeas: 2 cups chickpeas, rinsed and patted dry 1 tbsp avocado oil 1/2 tbsp curry powder or spice of choice 1 tsp turmeric Salt to taste _________________________ Preheat oven to 400 F / 200 C. Cut butternut in half, take out the seeds and lightly salt it. (Optional: spray it with a bit of avocado oil first, then salt it) Place it cut side down on a lined baking sheet. Toss chickpeas with oil and spices and put them in a large baking dish or on a second lined baking sheet. Bake everything for 40- 45 minutes. The butternut should be fork tender and charred on the bottom. Chickpeas will crisp up even more once they cool down. In the meantime, peel and core apple, and roughly chop . Heat up vegan butter in a large skillet (medium heat), add apple pieces and saute until lightly browned. When butternut is done, let it cool down enough to handle, then scoop out all of the flesh.Add that to a high speed blender along with the apple and veggie broth and blend until very smooth. Transfer soup to a pot to heat up and season with ginger, cayenne and black pepper and salt if needed. Depending on your preference, you can add a bit more water to thin out the soup. Serve with crispy chickpeas, a slice of toasted sourdough and enjoy Additional toppings: Pumpkin seeds, pomegranate seeds, fresh parsley. . . . . . #vegan_veganfood #veganfoodshare #plantbased #veganfood #vegantreats #letscookvegan #whatveganseat #veganlunch #vegantravel #vegansofig #vegansofig #veganuary #vegan #veganfitness #veganpizza #vegandiet #veganvitamin #veganfoodspot # #vegetarian #vegans #vegana #veganprotein #vegantravel

Animal Medicine - The Heron The meaning of the heron deals with being comfortable in spaces that are neither here, nor there. It prefers hunting at twilight, which is a symbolic and magical time of ‘in-between’. The heron will have one foot on land, and one foot in the water this action has been recognized by ancient cultures as a sign of liminality crossing into the a space that is neither here, nor there.

New Days Dawn From 1986 to 1989, I enjoyed one of the most productive & happiest times of my life, thanks to the birth of my sons Jesse & Luke & some extraordinary first hand Spiritual experiences. During these golden years, I wrote hundreds of songs & poems whilst working as an undercover Psychic & Faith Healer in Sydney. New Days Dawn was one of the first songs I wrote & recorded, after my great awakening. 30 years later, the song has stood the test of time & remains a fa...vorite amongst close friends. In 2014, I gave the song a makeover, changing its key & creating a bridge with some additional lyrics. I recorded the revised New Days Dawn in Calgary in 2017, but was not totally happy with the end result. Later that year, I took the song to my producer in Connecticut Patrick Keogh & together, we created the anthem I had always envisaged. When I first recorded New Days Dawn in 1986, I had a whole new insight into LOVE. That same inspiration would come again during this recording in 2017. At last, I could now sing about LOVE again and really mean it. The Music video was shot in Cape Town & Connecticut. @josecalarco https://www.youtube.com/cha/UCPXdW-IGG59j_KlrGYc7_EQ/videos . . . #music #love #song

"My friend, you are stuck in a patterning of injury. ASK: What healing action can I do today? With an injured area it is vital that you work above & below it. Breathe healing energy into the injured area(s) daily. Breathe into amygdala, teaching it to let go of old pain patterns & learn new healing paradigms. Weed the dark thoughts from your mental garden, daily. Plant what you want growing there." - Ana Forrest . . . #moveoutofthhatspace #healingactions #anaforrest #forrestyoga #energy

Even our ceremonial practices are changing as Ana Forrest & Jose Calarco's personal interests, skills, and fascinations evolve. . . . #forrestyoga #change #evolveordie #anaforrest #joseana

Animal Medicine - The Crab . Crab teaches how to hold on tight when you’re feeling insecure and to sidestep obstacles with grace. . If you discover that Crab images keep skittering into your life, you may have discovered an animal spirit guide or totem that wants your immediate attention. As a general rule Crab represents the moon. It’s aligned with Yin energies and the ebb and tide of Mother Ocean.... . From a purely observational standpoint it’s hard to overlook the Crab’s symbolic value of having a hard shell. This means that Crab energy protects people from vulnerable discoveries and personal weaknesses when they are not ready to open up. . The shell of the Crab is also its home, and as such it has become an emblem of happy domesticity. Another natural aptitude is the sideways movement of the Crab, which is not common to land dwellers. With that in mind, Crab could portend your need to side step a situation for something safer. There’s no need to be so direct here. Situations call for something a little unorthodox. . Crab claws are very strong. If this creature grabs onto something you’ll be hard pressed to get the claws open. Here, the symbolic value of Crab is resiliency and unwillingness to give up, particularly those things we feel we have earned rightfully. Crabs shed their shells when they grow, providing the additional meaning of renewal and rebirth. The only caution here is that Crabs become very defenseless during the process of change. Until that new environment manifests proceed with caution. . . Big thank you to What is my Spirit Animal for the words #spiritanimal #crab #animalmedicine #strength #home #motherearth See more
