DEC 21 2010

Future self. Imagine yourself five years from now. What advice would
you give your current self for the year ahead? (Bonus: Write a note to
yourself 10 years ago. What would you tell your younger self?)

Five years from now I see myself running a wellness center, specializing in yoga therapy, teaching yoga, meditation and pranayama, being a mother, married to a wonderful husband who adores me, looking good and keeping in vibrant health. The advice I have for myself for the year ahead is: keep studying, keep practicing, be true to your heart, go after your dreams, set goals and review them every month, keep close with family, keep open to possibilities, let people in on your plans and don't be afraid to ask for help.

A note to myself 10 years ago:

Dear Lisa,

You are exploring, experimenting and discovering yourself through play. Do not take everything too seriously as this phase is only to shape your future and help to reveal your true destiny. The journey is lifelong and always changing however when it is time you will see very clearly the path that you will follow and it will feel exactly right in your heart, your mind and your body. Life is full of challenges and sometimes we need to break down in order to build back up on top of fresh foundation. Do not be afraid to fail as these failures will reveal your truth. Do not be afraid to go against what others may influence you to do. Listen to your heart and trust your intuition. Take some time to sit and breathe and observe your thoughts and emotions. See what is inside yourself and know your habits well. Always leave room for change and growth and see the wonders that will come your way. Be understanding towards others as they too are finding themselves in their own way and on their own time. You can do anything you set yourself out to do. Keep things simple and be patient. Practice goodness and all good things will be revealed.
