Self-Care Goddess Game for the Full Lotus Moon *JUNE 28, 2018

Hello Goddess!

 

We are starting a Self-Care Goddess Game this week and I would love for you to play if you’re up for it! The basic intention is to honor our Goddess bodies and create an even more beautiful life for a full month! Happy dances to your health and happiness. 🙂

 

Although there is a great free self-care 101 class that you can watch oftentimes just watching a class isn’t enough. We need to create habits and structures that help us live the life we desire. I call this the embodiment phase. We need to make the information we consume part of who we are and what we do. It can be easy to know a lot of stuff but it’s whole other thing to actually act on what we know. This month is going to be about actually doing it! Yeahhhh! And, if you haven’t watched the class yet, no worries watch it HERE. We are starting this on June 28, 2018 (Full Moon to Full Moon).

Most of us don’t allow ourselves the time and space to truly restore. I am feeling this even more now with a 5 1/2-year-old and a 16-month-old (that is still waking up throughout the night). I am needing this self-care reboot as much as anyone else. I can give so much that sometimes I forget that I have needs and desires too. This is not serving me, my family or community. It’s just not! So, this is why I am so personally committed to self-care because I know how much I need it and how important it is for all of us to flourish. We will only get more awesome with more self-care! YAY for our awesomeness! 🙂

 

Next up….What is a Goddess Game? Well, I believe all women are Goddesses (beauty, power, love, grace, etc. it’s just who we are!) and I like the word game better than project or guide. The game feels fun to me. 😉 So, if we call it a game then hopefully we will have more fun with it rather than just another thing on our to-do list. 🙂 When we show up and do our best that’s a win, and that sounds like fun to me!

 

How do we play?

We will start on June 28th and go until July 27th. ? Full Lotus moon to ? full moon.

Here’s are some basic guidelines:

  1. Watch or listen to the self-care 101 class if you haven’t. Pick your favorite big ideas and the things you want to implement into your life this month.
  2. Set the intention to honor your Goddess body and create an even more beautiful life! I have it on my whiteboard.
  3. Print off the workbook and poster. Also, download the meditation and affirmations so you can use those during your chillax time. (Zip Download of ALL??)

Next steps:

* Create an intention — I am going with honoring and celebrating my Goddess body and create an even more beautiful life.

* SuperHero Persona — Create a superhero name. This is a way to playfully tap into your higher self. Mine is Radiant Rejuvenated Goddess.

* Missions — These are habits/things you want to do on a daily basis. These may be new or ones you’ve stopped doing and want to start up again because they make you feel awesome.

* Ritual  — This is something that you want to do weekly. It could be a time in nature, a completion party, alone time, or going to a yoga/dance/fitness class, etc.

* Experiment — Things that you’d like to try this month. Playing with putting some of the “big ideas” into practice.

* Goddess Adventure — This is a bigger self-care adventure. It might be going to a workshop, or on a vacation, going to the spa, camping, or just giving yourself permission to do nothing for a day or a week. 😉 Whatever would feel joyful and make your mind and body rejuvenate.

 

You can see Alexandra’s Self-Care Goddess Game HERE and mine HERE. The goal is to keep it simple and doable. You get to craft what you want to commit to this month. We have shared ours so you have a framework to work with and see how we’re choosing to play. Alexandra is a mother of two and I currently don’t have any children and devote a lot of time to self-care so please don’t be overwhelmed if it seems like a lot. 😉

 

Essentially, you will have daily, weekly, monthly intentions. The goal is to have it be simple enough that it all fits on one page. We do not want to create more overwhelm. This is about taking time to recharge, do less and enjoy more. And, if you don’t want to do any of the above and you just want to keep it uber simple pick ONE thing you will do this month that will support your radiance!

 

Alright, so that’s the game! You in!?  Additional resources to support you on your self-care journey will be added on a private Facebook group so we can share our journey as well as to keep each other accountable. Whether you decide to do it now or later I wanted you to have all the information so you can play whenever you feel like you need a good reboot. Happy Dances. Let’s rock it!

 

Oh, and one more thing, if you have a question. Please submit it HERE and Alexandra will answer it in the Momma Goddess podcast!

 

Sending you light, love and self-care magic,

P.S. Next month we will be doing Food 101  where we will explore feeling empowered around our food and fueling our authentically awesome lives. Then, we will do Play 101. I just wanted to give you a heads up of what Goddess Games are coming up! 🙂

P.P.S If you want to jump ahead and watch that class you can sign up for our monthly membership here: https://www.optimize.me/. $7.99 a month. Epic right!? 🙂

Meditation for Courage, Prosperity AND to Remove ALL Obstacles

This meditation is powerful and recommended anytime you feel stuck, need to be more grounded, and want to attract prosperity. This is a classic Kundalini Yoga meditation for courage, fearlessness, and a strong aura and radiant body.  This mediation really aids in giving ourselves the strength to deal with our life challenges.
.
Effects:
This meditation has 40 sounds, which together balance the 5 tattvas (air, water, fire, earth, and ether), the 7 chakras and the arch line. This mantra can penetrate into anything and help avoid misfortune. It has the power to break through any resistance or obstacles. It is sacred but it is not secret. This meditation was given by Yogi Bhajan to be successful during these challenging times and to deal with the intensity of the energy during the shift to the Aquarian Age.
.
Prosperity and Presence:
This meditation was also given as a prosperity meditation. There is one basic requirement for prosperity and manifesting ‘You have to be home when the postman comes.’ In other words, you have to be grounded in your body on Planet Earth and not floating around in the ethers. Pumping your navel in this meditation can keep you present. But if you have any propensity for being ungrounded and spaced out while meditating and in life, then do this mediation in archer pose. 5-11 minutes on each side. You will become super present, strong, and magnetic. If you resist the thought, then this meditation in archer pose is for you!
.
Directions: Before chanting, pick one life challenge that seems impossible to figure out and/or difficult to deal with and place it in your heart while you chant this mantra. Let the energy infuse the situation. While chanting focus on the mantra and its energetic effects. Pumping the navel with each HAR will keep you present in your body, but you can get totally absorbed into the sounds and feel very refreshed afterward. You may be surprised how you feel about your current situation.
.
Sit in easy pose with the hands in Gyan mudra (thumb and forefinger touching) on the knees, elbows straight. Chant this mantra 11-31 minutes in the morning before starting your day to program your psyche for success and courage, to uplift your spirits, to create an aura of invincibility, and a super strong radiant body.  You may find that 11 minutes is not enough. You want to keep going and get rejuvenated by the sounds. 15 or 22 minutes is good and 31 minutes is very satisfying and empowering.Repeat before each of the eight aspects of the Divine HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR

 

Pump your navel center with each HAR. Be sure to touch the tip of the tongue to the upper palate when you are making the ‘R’ of HAR and the ‘N’ in the other mantras. The ‘R’ will the be enunciated correctly to stimulate the pineal and pituitary glands and awaken the frontal lobe and neutral mind.

Chant in a monotone, enunciating clearly each syllable. Do not mumble, move your mouth to make the sounds.

HAR is a manifesting mantra. The other eight mantras are aspects of the Divine. Chanting HAR before each aspect pulls that energy into our physical and subtle bodies.

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR GOBINDE—Go bin day–Sustainer

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR MUKUNDE—Moo kun day–Liberator

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR UDARE—Oo dar ay–Enlightener

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR APARE—Uh par ay–Infinite

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR HARING—Har e ung–Destroyer

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR KARING—Car e ung–Creator

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR NIRNAME—Nir na may–Nameless

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR AKAME—A ka may—Desireless

Although many times I experience a myriad of ideas and openings for my challenge during the process it is said it’s best to sit quietly when finished and feel the effects of the meditation in your physical body, aura, and radiant body. Consolidate, contain, and radiate love. Be available for intuitive messages about your current life challenge. They may come directly after the meditation or later in the day. Be available to listen to your soul.

When first learning this mantra you may want to have this screen in view so that you can have eyes nearly closed but open enough to read and enunciate properly and clearly.

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR —Go bin day

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR —Moo kun day

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR —Oo dar ay

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR —Uh par ay

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR —Har e ung

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR —Car e ung

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR —Nir na may

HAR, HAR, HAR, HAR —A ka may

Join us:

I generally put on a soothing alarm to go off after 12 minutes or play a 12-minute song. I then get myself into position in easy pose, hands in Gyan mudra, close eyes take a few deep breaths and then place my challenge in my heart and begin the chanting. Once the alarm goes off, I am sure to continue with the mantra until I finish “Akamay”

Invoke the WEALTH of the Universe! “Sobagh Kriya”

Invoke the Wealth of the Universe with the “Sobagh Kriya”

The Sobagh Kriya is a five-part kriya. (15 MINUTE VERSION that we’re doing for our 40-day practice!)

Each part must be practiced for an equal amount of time of 3 minutes.

Audio File to play to easily transition into each posture: (timed out 3 min, 3 min, 3 min, 1 min, 1 min, 1 min, 3 min.)

 

Meditation #1 (3 MINUTES)

To become rich and prosperous with wealth and values is to have the strength to come through. It means transmissions from your brain and the power of your intuition can immediately tell you what to do. By practicing this meditation, you will be in a position to immediately change gears. If you need to go in reverse, you can go in reverse. If you need to go forward, you can go forward.

This is a very simple, old system. This is called “moon mound.” (Indicates outer side of hand along the small finger.) This side of my hand along the index finger is called Jupiter. Put the thumbs under the index fingers. (Thumbs cross below the hands, with the right thumb under the left.) I hit the Moon; I hit Jupiter. You are thinking, “What is this going to do?” This is going to straighten your head out.

Chant with Tantric Har with each movement. Alternate hitting the moon sides and the Jupiter sides of the hands together at the level of the heart center. Eyes should be nine-tenths dosed, focusing on the tip of the nose. 

This meditation stimulates the mind: the Moon center and the Jupiter. When Jupiter and the Moon come together, there is no way in the world you will not create wealth. Not money as money is a common word merely a medium. TRUE WEALTH! It’ll come to you!

Meditation #2 (3 MINUTES)

Now, there are times when you are depressed, there are times you are impressed. When you are impressed, you usually do the wrong things. Are you listening? And when you are depressed, you are always doing wrong things. That’s a fact. When you are impressed, you don’t use your intuition.

Stretch your arms up sixty degrees. Open your fingers, spreading them widely. The fingers have to be totally hard. If you do it correctly, you will get the results. In rhythm with the same Tantric Har tape from Meditation #1 but without chanting out loud, cross your arms alternating right over left and then left over right, still keeping the fingers stretched open.

Alternating: Right in front, left behind. Fingers spread wide, arms open. Left in front, right behind.

Meditation #3 (3 MINUTES)

Put both of your hands in fists with your thumb under your fingers and press as hard as you can, like you are going to squeeze the blood out of them. Press, press, press hard. Arms at sixty degrees.

Move the arms in small backward circles. Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze hard. With each circle, you make with your arms chant “God.” Chant “God” powerfully from the navel.

The word “God” has three letters: “G,” which generates; “O,” which organizes; and “D,” which delivers and destroys. They are three sounds: G-0-D. God. When “God” is chanted from here (points to his navel point), then God can hear. When you chant “God” from the mouth, it makes no difference. He doesn’t even hear it. For this meditation chant when you squeeze your id band in your hand really hard and circle powerfully. The entire spine shakes. Sometimes you’ll find you are lifting yourself from the ground. Don’t worry. It’s not a small exercise. Now keep it going: stretch it, tight, tight, as tight as you can. And the circle should be tight.

 Meditation #4 (3 MINUTES TOTAL 1 MIN monotone, 1 MIN strong whisper, 1 MIN whistle)

1 MINUTE: Chant Har Haray Haree, Wahe Guru in a low monotone voice.  Deep—from the base. Cut down your bad karmas from forever. A deeper sound from the navel. Try it with honesty.

1 MINUTE:  Strongly whisper Har Haray Haree, Wahe Guru. Use the prana (breath). Burn any disease. Change the metabolism.

1 MINUTE: Whistle Har Haray Haree, Wahe Guru.

Meditation #5 (3 MINUTES)

Put your arms at shoulder level, left hand under, right over. Breathe long and deep. Don’t let the hands fall. They should be parallel to the ground.

Keep your spine straight; sit correctly. Breathe one breath a minute: 20 seconds to inhale, 20 seconds to hold, 20 seconds to exhale.  Breathe consciously one breath a minute for three minutes.

This is the complete Sobagh Kriya set. You are POWERFUL beyond belief and now you have invoked the wealth of the universe!!! 

If there is a misfortune written by the will of God, by doing this set you will make it into good fortune. I'm not saying "man-made." I'm saying if God Himself has 
written that you shall live under 
misfortune, by doing Sobagh Kriya you can turn your misfortune into prosperity, goodfortune, and 
good luck.

This is the most sacred and absolutely 
most powerful kriya of Kundalini Yoga. And it is in parts. 
You can do each part for either 3 or 11 
minutes, not more. If you do 3 minutes, do3 minutes, 3 minutes, 3 minutes, 3 minutes, and 3 minutes. If you do 11 minutes, do 11, 11, 11, 11, 11. That's the time. 
And do not exceed. 
So, I'd advise you to move very cautiously, very slowly. Affectionately practice it.
