Me now

Hello beautiful souls. I took me a while to decide what I would like to write about. The simplest will be write about me now. I am surrounded by spring. Mornings are like a gift now. I enjoy having windows open to feel nice and fresh air and birds sing beautifully outside. There is more energy in me but at the same time suddenly I got so busy and sometimes I feel like I am constantly trying to catch my shadow instead of me. If I only could stretch time sometimes. So there is lots of stress and anxiety in me. But the more anxious I become the more aware how important is just to let it go and accept things as they are.Practicing yoga in the morning and evenings, awareness of the moment during the day, sending positive thoughts, smiling, reading, painting, meditations and sleep help. Love and empathy to myself and all beings help as well or maybe the most. My latest paintings are about being somewhere between state of hope and feeling overwhelmed. I finally completed my new vision board. It was good fun doing it again. It is really a powerful and extremely inspiring tool. I strongly recommend it for everyone. I wish you all peace, love and beautiful sunny days.

  3. Life sure does seem to go too fast sometimes. And there never seems to be enough hours in the day. I can totally relate to that!

    I'm glad that you are surrounded by and enjoying spring!

    Sending thoughts of Joy your way! Hugs!

  4. Feeling overwhelmed is a very normal way to feel. We live in such a state of hurry. Your vision board is lovely and matches the things that you are doing to help you slow down and enjoy each day.

    I love both paintings. The bright colors behind you are so full of energy!

    Have a wonderful week and thank you so much for all of your very kind comments.

  6. Your first painting really speaks to me. Standing on the edge... between something and something else is how I read it. Really powerful.

  13. The paintings are great. They do show this in between state. Yet, after reading your post, it seems to me that all the pieces are falling into place for you. You have all the right things going on, you just have to let yourself settle in to the peaceful place that is authentic you.

  15. Hello Aga..such a beautiful post full of wisdom and empowerment. Both paintings are magnificent..symbolically vivid and powerful to me..and speak to my soul..the first one feels very introspective and healing, the second feels very magical, enlightening and infused with harmony! I can often be an extreme introvert and love the inner safe place and feel panic about the outer world where i try to feel more comfortable and peaceful ..yes..so awesome...love is the a powerful healer and all those things you shared are wonderful ways of igniting harmony-peace and empowerment for the soul and spirit...so beautiful!! Thanks for sharing your beautiful visions and healing art! I feel transformed!

    Love both paintings, I especially love the first one because it's where I usually like to go on most of my walks; far away from crowds and nearer to nature. Nice lovely work.

  17. Your vision board is a great way to centre your thoughts, as is yoga, I love yoga, it is hard to dwell on the stresses of life when balancing on one leg! Keep creative Aga, I adore your beautiful paintings.
