LEAVING MY. PLANET… EXPANDING MY UNIVERSE..

If you are reading this.. You made it through the COVID ABYSS…

NOW WHAT?

Well… WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I call this the UPGRADE… YOU.. 2.0 ( or 5.0, should you be on the cusp of.. Or in your fifties… Like.. Well.. ME..

“ITS NOW OR NEVER.”

Certainly relevant always.. But the point was driven HOME coming out of. 2020…

LIFE TRUTH…

RANDOM SHIT HAPPENS…

First thing first.. That PAST you… DITCH HER/HIM/ THEM.. ( whatever your pronouns are)

Why we spend so much time dealing with a persona that doesn’t exist, at least not in the way we REMEMBER.. full of “I should of..”

I am not the SAME.. YOU are not the SAME…

YOU CAN NOW ..

MOVE ON…

Sure..pieces still exist.. That’s what we build on…

“NOW OR NEVER…”

AGAIN… the question is this..

WHO DO YOU WANT TO BE?

And yes…YOU DO KNOW..

Here’s me… I want to be AGELESS and STRONG…letting go of my overactive brain …at least in the rumination department as defined above ..

So I UPGRADE… out of my current planet .. But yet in the same universe..

. ENTER THE DRAGON.. ( or IGUANA.. more appropriate for a Brazilian body movement technique ..)

__________________________

SOME “BACKGROUND” HERE..

I am pure FEMININE ENERGY..

Sure… I multitask like a champ, I take care of everything and everyone..

I am NEEDED.. BUT..

I OVERTHINK…

THINGS NEED TO BE PERFECTLY PERFECT…

“I wonder what “he” meant by that” Is my brain’s “go to”..

I obsess… I try to control… I just do not “LET IT GO”..

THIS IS NOT EXACTLY FREEDOM…

I need some MASCULINE ENERGY ..

I need to not overthink.. I need to trust my instincts..

I need to THINK like a WARRIOR… Battling life with sharp tools…

Not always worrying about sharpening everyone else tools..

So… I went up to RENZO GRACIE…signed my name on the dotted line..

Jujitzu…

Where it’s not STRENGTH that rules.. It’s using the body systems of

LEVERAGE and MECHANICS as POWER…

It’s TRAINING my mind which is trained in intuitive movement. to THINK

In a completely different way…

DO I NEED THIS?

YES…

I NEED THOSE UNDERDEVELOPED LIFE SKILLS

Here’s my Handy CHART of the ENERGY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN “VENUS AND MARS”..

MASCULINE ENERGY

Risk-taking

Assertiveness

Action-oriented

Discipline

Boundaries

Confidence

Objectivity

Logic and analysis

Survival

FEMININE ENERGY

Creativity.

Heightened sense of empathy

Deep Sense of Justice, Balance, & Morality. …

Passive Resistance. …

Stronger Awareness of Thoughts and Feelings. …

Having a Many-Sided Personality. …

Feeling the Need to Self-Sacrifice to Remain Virtuous.

SEE WHAT I MEAN?

As a woman living in NYC.. ( or anywhere)..

PERMISSION TO TAP INTO MY DORMANT MASCULINE ENERGY

( note.. I did not say “THINK LIKE A MAN.. THATS NOT THE POINT..)

I’m teaching my MIND AND BRAIN. a new way of thinking ..and training my body In a different “language”..

ALL MOVEMENT IS A FORM OF EXPRESSION.. LIKE WORDS ..

THE BODY IS CAPABLE OF THINGS MOST OF US WILL NEVER REALIZE..

AND LIFE IS ALL ABOUT FINDING MISSING PIECES OF THE SOUL..

THE SOUL IS ENERGY ..

WE ARE SOCIALIZED TO NOT USE SKILLS WE ALL NEED … FACT …

POST COVID …

THIS IS WHO I WANT TO BE…

NOT LIMITED BY HOW I WAS CONDITIONED TO BE..

FREE TO BE ….MORE…

MY OWN “YING AND YANG”..

STANDING ON MY OWN.. WHILE PULLING OTHERS UP..
