CURRENT MISSION

Meditate every day :)

ABOUT ME

Life on earth is short, so don't take yourself too seriously! Humour is essential!
Love, laugh, share, care, dance, learn, expand, explore, discover, hug, connect, forgive, accept, solitude.

Also enjoy eating good food, spending time with family and friends, meeting new family, reading, art, breathing, meditating, inner journeys. I am more awake now than ever (at least as I consciously remember) and for that I am grateful!!! Raising frequencies for survival.

PHILOSOPHY

"When the world slips you a Geoffrey, stroke the furry wall, stroke the furry wall..." ;p

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Uha...SO MANY wonderful things...don't know where to begin...but that we can talk about when we meet:) It flows better through conversation...

Teach, Learn, Share

"If you are not making someone else's life better, then you're wasting your time!"

"Freedom is not determined by what state you are in, rather it is complete surrender to whatever state you find yourself in."

"Nothing is so strong as Gentleness.
Nothing is so gentle as real Strength."

“Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That's its balance.”

"Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves."

"If every 8 year old in the world is taught meditation, we will eliminate violence from the world within one generation."

"When the surface of a lake is still you can see the bottom very clearly, but it is impossible to do so when the surface is agitated by waves. In the same way, when the mind is still with no desires and no thought waves you can see yourself."

"Be the change you want to see in the world."

"Find ecstasy within yourself. It is not out there. It is in your innermost flowering. The one you are looking for is you. You are the traveller and you are the destination. In experiencing the ecstasy of your own being, you have achieved the final goal."

"In today’s rush we all think too much, seek too much, want too much and forget about the joy of just Being."

"Most people ONLY want to know what they already believe and nothing more."

"Don’t judge and don’t worry about what others think of you. Whatever they think, it is not permanent. Your own opinion about things and people keeps changing all the time. So why worry about what others think about you? Worrying takes a toll on the body, mind, intellect and alertness. This can be handled by relaxing and doing some breathing exercises. Then you will realise that you are loved, you are a part of everybody and you are a part of the whole universe. This will liberate you and the mind will take a complete shift. You will then find so much harmony around."

"Travel light, live light, spread the light, be the light."

"If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales."

"Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's need, but not every man's greed."

"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."

"Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."

"Life begins at the end of your comfort zone."

"Oh my god, you did, you Miyagi'ed me."

"The stronger you become, the gentler you will be!"

"If you think you're too small to make a difference, you haven't spent a night with a mosquito."

"The fastest way to still the mind is to move the body."

"Real love is never perplexed, never qualifies, never rejects, never demands. It replenishes, by grace of restoring unlimited circulation. It burns, because it knows the true meaning of sacrifice. It is life illuminated."

"Wee ate ze cake".

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."

"Lítla svarta svansibók..."

"A man once told Buddha: I want happiness.
Buddha replied: First remove the I, which is the ego. Then remove the want, which is desire. And now all you're left with is Happiness."

"Contentment is the greatest treasure."

"Baby, where we're going, you don't need teeth"

"And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."

"Life is a beautiful struggle"

"When the world slips you a Geoffrey, stroke the furry wall, stroke the furry wall...Furry walls don't bring me down."

"There is no coming to consciousness without pain. People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious."

"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society."

"Kneel to Insinga!"

"Know thyself!"

"The answer to the mysteries...Dú dam dam dam da dú dam dam"

"Seize the day"

"Cautiously excited" "I smurf u":)

"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts."

"Why do people say "grow some balls?" Balls are weak and sensitive. If you wanna be tough, grow a vagina. Those things can take a pounding."

"[I]f you feel lost, disappointed, hesitant, or weak, return to yourself, to who you are, here and now.
And when you get there, you will discover yourself, like a lotus flower in full bloom, even in a muddy pond, beautiful and strong."

"I like myself because I'm me, there's no one else I'd rather be.
I like me wild, I like me tame, I like me different and the same."

"Recently I was in New York dancing with 50 5 Rhythms teachers, my first time being there since Gabrielle died last October. I was struck once again at how this Heartbeat map has served me. It's almost miraculous, how simple moving with my feeling heart can be...when a story, which might catalyse a feeling, doesn't then take over. Rather, whatever feeling has been evoked can be experienced as adding a different colour or component to my dance, that changes and informs how I move... without dictating. When I am empty enough to be a vessel for whatever emotion is alive in me, without judgement, without editing it, the surrender that follows is so sweet.. that's when the ecstasy arrives, whatever the feeling, because it really is just energy in motion. To be liberated from the fear of feeling can be a wondrous thing.

Of course, it's not always that simple, usually because there is fear, in some form or another. Fear of being too much, too loud, too snotty, too soppy, too restricted, too shy, too wild, too angry, surely not more tears?? This is what we come to transform in the dance."
