More Movement

Today I went skinny dipping

Well kinda

It started off me in a wetsuit and surfboard

Waves were weak

Peeled off the suit

Was in my sexy little red thang – onepiece

The waves seemed bigger going in without the board. Also moved further down the beach so they were.

I started to think of my dreams. Allowing myself to dream. Imagining my dream home and life and wish for family of my own and dream career etc. I asked myself

“How bad do I want it?!”

Then I said “This bad”

And would dive into a cold crashing wave

The timidness and weakness goes when you are striving for greater and being more alive

The coffee was coursing through my veins too

“This bad!” “This bad!”

I kept saying, as I kept diving

I hadn’t felt so empowered and strong and unstoppable in… gosh… yonks

I was one of the only people swimming

The waves were getting fierce

I whipped off the togs and let my bare boobs and torso and crotch feel the loveliness of the water that the rest of my (now numb) body had being enjoying

I felt wild and free and strong and sexy and everything good

Part of me wanted to be seen by everyone I know and love

Part of me was reveling in my beachy anonymity

Anyway, it was a fine moment. I walked home in nothing but my togs and sandals, body all sandy and red from exertion and cold. Walking by the sea and home not giving a care.

I am on my way to great things. And you can be too, whoever you are. When you come into your power. All it takes is a bit of mental organisation and some physical movement. We act with our bodies therefore we need to keep them moving, even if the movement itself isn’t our main goal. Trust me when I say, most of my life for the past few years has been characterised by lethargy. I often feel weak and sensitive and unbothered and pressed low… Then I get these moments when I see that if I clear away the baggage, solidify my ideas about myself and where I’m going and a whole bunch of other things – I start to come home to myself.

I’m now in the process of inviting everything back in. Movement is having the most profound impact on me. Dancing, yoga, surfing, swimming, skateboarding, handstanding, walking. I am coming back to the world. We are bodies, we must be embodied. It’s easy to not be so in our world dominated by screens.

I want to say more but I am very tired now.

Know yourself. Move your body. Set goals. Have fun. That’s the message for today.
