I’ve been thinking about “taking it back” lately. Taking it back to a time when we, as a species, were more friendly, more open, less afraid, more kind and carefree. I’ve been thinking about the 70’s. You know, taking it back to the 1970’s vibe. Driving into Tofino the other day, driving my mom’s van (which is slightly larger and slightly more camperized than my van) 2 people waved at me on the road.

Cameron Lake, BC I woke up this morning with an awesome feeling of freedom. Awe-some, awe-filled. What is freedom? I am sure it is different for everyone. Freedom is one of my core values.

No deadlines No appointments No schedule Stopping anywhere Leaving when you want Coming back when you want Yoga all over the place Wading in the lake Washing your face in it Brushing your teeth in the forest Earth underfoot Blue water No shoes What is freedom to you? Post in the facebook group. I would love to hear and get inspired.https://www.facebook.com/groups/192366282
