Barefoot Bodeez does not claim to fix anything but what it tries to do is to invite a shift in a person’s consciousness so that change can take place at the point where the problem started and that is in the consciousness of the individual.  In that regard, the following statement changed my world:

If you want freedom in the body then take your attention OFF the body!   

Wow – when I heard that for the first time, as a yoga teacher for decades that really blew my mind.  However they say that when the student is ready the teacher will appear and in this case I found out that this is the truth. My whole life has been a fascination with the body so I was constantly studying everything I could about it.  However when I started studying more about consciousness I realised that everything we experience in our bodies is a direct result of our consciousness ( ie what we think, believe or even project).  When that changes, the body experience becomes a whole different ball game!  Not one to take anything I learn or read at face value, I have to put everything to the test, not once or twice but hundreds of times until I am convinced.  And so I started experimenting with this and I was amazed at the results.  

I mentioned before that the Higher Self of us (called The Presence) is actually the creator of the body.  I was told to take the attention off the body and put it on the creator of the body instead.  So I did – in a Bikram Yoga class – wow wow wow what a difference!  Now I am totally convinced this is the way to go and I now include this in my teaching as it made such a difference to me.

I love all things Summer and I’m currently in Sliema, Malta sitting on a boat about to embark on a cruise around the harbour. My feet are burning hot mainly from the last couple of days pounding the pavements of Valletta and the neighboring areas but as I love sun, sea and history I’m loving it!  Taking a break from normal everyday life is a wonderful way to get new perspectives and therefore new ideas.  It goes without saying that I’m experimenting with new workout ideas and I think I have a great Cosmic Body Sculpt Express Version that hits all the spots in a minimum amount of time.  I’m not one for using equipment.  As long as I have my body and a bit of floor space I’m good to go!  

Barefoot Bodeez aims to introduce you to creating your ideal body but not in the way you may have tried in the past. BB invites you to discover the Truth of you which is way more than you are probably aware of.  I have mentioned before that everything is linked – you are connected to everything in the cosmos – you would not be alive if you were not! In fact your heart would not beat if this were not so. 

You actually have a Cosmic Self and once you start to truly realise that and apply different “rules” you will see your body and your fitness in a whole different light.  In spiritual circles you will often hear the Higher Self being talked about, however in my opinion there seems to be a very much more connected experience if you call it your Presence or your I AM Presence or your Mighty I AM Presence – as it is very powerful.  Your human self is extremely limited and therefore if you are only aware of your limited self you will only experience limitation and that includes results in your body.  

Are you willing to let go of control of your body and leave it up to your Cosmic Self to create your best body? It could be the most enjoyable way if you do!
