I've always had a hard time with writing. It's like there's a lot more going on in my head than I am able to put on paper, or to speak of for that matter. But in the past I've found that once I do it, the outcome is often not so bad. This past experience of writing has always been school related, something I had to do, not something I wanted to do. So when the lovely people of 'Weebly' (my website provider) shared with me that I needed to 'start a blog' for my website to be 100% complete, I pondered it...
Lately I've been experiencing surges of creativity, most often in the morning. Do you experience this? It's like I can't concentrate on anything else until I create something. Most often I need to do something with my hands, like cooking, or drawing, or painting. So why not write? I have to pay homage to my throat chakra here. It is the chakra of expression and creativity. I take these bouts of creativity as a sign that the energy is moving and I am grateful. You see, every time we don't speak up for ourselves or hold back words that we want to or have planned to say, that energy gets stuck in our throats, the flow ceases, tension is created, and we lose our balance. It's that simple. I will write more about balance in the future, and the chakras, and energy, and flow, and Yoga, and Reiki, and TRE, and whatever else may come to mind. This is called the 'N' Blog because there will always be a word beginning with the letter 'N' involved. Today it is Namaste.... Namaste is the traditional Sanskrit salutation that yogis and yoginis share at the end of a Yoga practice. Of course, it is used in other situations as well, but this is the most commonplace. Quite simply it means 'the light in me recognizes and honors the light in you'. Thank you for sharing your light with me. Namaste.

Natalie, As long as you speak in your own voice about things that are meaningful to you, your writing will be be just fine. And that's just what you did here.
