Dreams Really Do Come True!
What is the dream waiting in the wings of your mind, appearing in unguarded moments as you wash dishes or sit at the stoplight?
What is living in your heart longing to be set free in your life?
"Become one with your vision until it arrives at your door." Marsha Danzig
What we dream and believe is what we manifest in our lives, but sometimes they need a little help to be completely realized, to fully arrive at the door of our daily lives.
That's how Mountain Spirit Yoga was born. As I schlepped a car full of yoga props around Frederick County for 4 years teaching at three separate locations, I dreamed of having a central place to call home - my yoga home - but not just for me - for a community of people who wanted to experience greater health and well-being in their lives through yoga. I could see and feel what it would be like - combining the light streaming in through multiple windows of one place I taught with the warmth and coziness of another, in a setting with gardens and curving pathways. I drove by the current home of MSY twice every day on my way to teach yoga and often noticed the "For Lease" banner on the building. One day, as I sat the stoplight, I felt prompted to actually call the number on the banner. I made an appointment to see the space and fell in love with the light and windows, warmth and coziness, and even gardens bordered by a curving walkway in the courtyard outside the studio. I signed the lease and opened the doors to Mountain Spirit Yoga three months later once the renovation of the building was complete.
I manifested my dream, and you can, too!
Last year I took a course called Making Magic that focuses on using yoga and meditation to manifest amazing things in your life. It really helped me identify specific steps for manifesting anything I wanted in my life. I have used it for personal goals and for envisioning next steps for the studio's evolution. It really works!
The idea is to stop being defined by your past and start actively creating your future.
It's very relatable and has clear, practical steps, as well as guided yoga and meditation practices. The teacher, Allison Laframboise, is an author, the creator of an inspirational jewelry line and has taught transformational programs at Kripalu for 18 years.
