My Older Self

 My Older Self 

A few years ago - my yoga instructor Jen, had a special meditation practice. She took us to a place, and asked us to envision what our older self was like. 

My older self has long brown and gray hair with a slim figure. She is dressed in black yoga pants - black tank top, with a burgundy long sweater, with no shoes.  She lives in a small home - on a cliff - overlooking the ocean down below . Her home is bright and airy, with photos hanging on the walls of places she has been to. The home smells of fresh lavender, the sound of waves crashing below.   She invites me in - we sit on her cream colored sofa and drink hot tea and eat cookies.

Since that meditation - I frequently will take myself back to this place. A place of peace, calmness, and wisdom. 

This morning I took myself back to this place, to ask my older self wiser self , what to do about work and life. She sat me down on the sofa overlooking the ocean. I felt so at peace. All of my worries, and frustrations, went away. Went into the ocean air. 

I now once again feel at peace and ease
