Earlier today I was so blessed to be in a little discussion format sorta thing with several friends and fellow teachers. It was lead by the fabulous Liz Belile and Brigette Edery. We did a number of physiological therapeutic adjustments on one another, mostly working with the psoas and it's relationship to inner spiral. But we also discussed much about observation of the physical body, the emotional body, seeing the dominant doshas in others, etc. And somewhere along the beginning of the whole thing, I was reminded of a Bible verse that I looked up recently.
Some of you may know that I've lately been a little interested in numerology. And I'm surprised that when I posted some information about my name some time ago, that I didn't include this very popular passage from the Bible. Here are several translations of Jeremiah 29:11 from different versions of the Bible (oh, and if you add the 2 and the 9, you get 11. Thus 11:11):
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.
I know the plans that I have for you, declares the LORD. They are plans for peace and not disaster, plans to give you a future filled with hope.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter end.
For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of affliction, to give you an end and patience.
So I thought this was interesting with the whole 11:11 thing, combined with my name and how different translations all deal with hope, waiting, expectation, etc. But anyways, time to go to bed. I gotta get up early tomorrow to go practice with Mandy! Then, I get to go down to Wimberly to check out the farm on which I will be teaching a weekend yoga retreat that is gonna be AWESOME!!! More details on that soon. Goodnight!
