My Birthday, My Dentist, Transitions and Letting Go

There is so much going on in my life right now. I am going through a major transition in my personal life. Things are changing. I am going through an emotional time..but I know deep down that what is happening, although it is difficult, is for the best. ok, this is maybe kind of cryptic.. but nuff said. And if my blog posting is a little more sporadic, well, you know why.. sort of. ; )

It's my birthday today!!! I should change my profile - 44 today. cool. I got described as a hippie-chick.. I liked that.
I gotsome of the coolest presents.. lots of hand made and really thought out gifts. ..and cards. cool dishes, and the best food - young coconuts, physalis, truffles, dried mangoes, strawberries, medjool dates, special infused goddess chocolates-made with pot, essential oils and Arcturian activated with all the cards ..really intense, 2 gold boxes full each wrapped in purple foil. lots of flowers.. sooo many ..& more hugs than you could possibly imagine. I am overwhelmed with love and support and friends. I am just so incredibly blessed!!

oh & Connie -I got a book about ho'oponopono written by Mabel Katz, which I can't wait to read & tell you all about, looks amazing ..read some on the subway.. from my mom -she always gets the best stuff... an antenna for all good things. (she got me the 1st 4 Anastasia books last year!! - before I had ever heard of her!)


& I want to tell you about my dentist appt yesterday. I have the best dentist in the world!
Dr Dana Colson- she's amazing. & Lana also ..she did a teeth whitening thing for me a few months back and was really intrigued by the whole raw food thing.. started by her commenting on my eyes. So now she has been raw for quite a while..and she keeps telling everyone who comes in to come look at my eyes.. "this is the girl I was telling you about".. shes so excited and has this amazing accent - shes great!
ok, so I'm laid back in the chair and they just start working and I can't really say anything and this woman sits and introduces herself and tells me she is going to take off my boots and give me some foot reflexology while they work on my teeth. awesome! This lady sat and rubbed and refexologied my feet for over an hour..I was in heaven. Dana says "Just think of this as a foot reflexology appointment with a little dental work thrown in" wow!!! & Last time I went, the week before they gave me a parafin wax hand treatment!! ..and they serve fresh squeezed carrot juice. *Wow*

Lana's Favorite Salad: shredded beets, purple cabbage, green cabbage, carrots with olive oil, squeezed lemon, salt and cayenne pepper.

Osho card of the day - Letting Go

In this image of lotus leaves in the early morning, we can see in the rippling of the water that one drop has just fallen. It is precious moment, and one that is full of poignancy. In surrendering to gravity and slipping off the leaf, the drop loses its previous identity and joins the vastness of the water below. We can imagine that it must have trembled before it fell, just on the edge between the known and the unknowable.
To choose this card is a recognition that something is finished, something is completing. Whatever it is - a job, a relationship, a home you have loved, anything that might have helped you to define who you are - it is time to let go of it, allowing any sadness but not trying to hold on. Something greater is awaiting you, new dimensions are there to be discovered. You are past the point of no return now, and gravity is doing its work. Go with it - it represents liberation.
