I'm In-Love Now

Enjoying the snow (Feb 2011)

Remember when I wrote back on New Year's Eve that I went on my first date of 2010?  Well, turned out I didn't have to go out with anyone else!  He came exactly as I ordered:)  I now know the value of doing visualizations.  You imagine in great detail what you want in order to create the feeling of already having or experiencing your desires.  It is this feeling that is real.  It is the practice of creating, imagining, dreaming, believing that allowed me to begin to trust my intuition.  And because I trusted myself and had faith that it was all working out no matter what, I entered this new territory with courage, compassion and allowed for the kind of connection that occurs naturally. 

I did want to share with you the first valuable lesson this year brought me.  I learned that as soon as I decided I was ready for the love of my life to show up and I wasn't willing to settle for anything less, he showed up!  In actuality, we showed up for each other!  I say this because he has told me that he too was ready, that he too was waiting for me, and that he too was not willing to settle for less!  So the lesson is, DECIDE!  If you want something to change, BE IT!

What I want to convey here is that he didn't show up and then I believed it.  I believed first, and then he showed up!  I shifted myself first, then I was able to open up and be available so that when he came along, I was able to recognize him.  Last year was a year dedicated to shifting my beliefs and cultivating new truths.  With regard to love and relationships, the "old" me was always waiting for the other shoe to drop, waiting for the other person to figure out I wasn't that special and eventually he would tire of me, etc.  Hey, I had a track record to prove it!  History doesn't lie!  Ugh!  Yes isn't it all silly?  It wasn't until I put it on paper, said it out loud, shared it with others, that I was able to hear and feel the absurdity of my old belief patterns.  It became apparent that it was my own limited thinking that was keeping me stuck in an unwanted cycle. 

Turks and Caicos (May 2011)

The great news is that it's never too late to replace old thinking patterns with new ones!  So that's what I did.  I created a new belief system for myself and practiced new thoughts.  The "new" me believes I deserve to be happy, to be loved, and to be honored!  And when the old patterns of thought creep in (35 years in the making don't disappear overnight), I close my eyes, take a couple of deep breaths and remind myself that I deserve to be happy, to be loved, and to be honored.  When I first began taking intenSati classes 3 years ago, hearing these words made me giggle with embarrassment.   I couldn't say them.  I didn't believe them.  Today, these new thoughts are louder and more dominant.  And I think and say them out loud with conviction, with confidence, and with gumption! 

Last year I was determined to dream BIG!  I committed to leading from the HEART which meant telling the truth about and expressing how I FEEL!  I practiced the belief that I WILL FIND LOVE and CULTIVATE ABUNDANCE!  I chose to love myself and honor my worth!  As a result, I fell in love with me.  And that is where it all began.  

I used to hear people say that once you meet the perfect one for you, you just know it!  That it was something you just felt and knew to be true and real.  I never believed it.  Until now.

What are you willing to believe?  What do you stand to lose if you don't?

The Universe is smiling at me:)

Hard to believe it's already February 6th!  I realized today that I didn't post an entry at all in the month of January!  It's been a fantastic beginning to 2011 so far and there is still so much brewing!  I've been spending lots of time enjoying and taking it all in!  I am not quite ready to talk details at this point, but one thing is for sure, I am CELEBRATING!!!  Here's a little poem I wrote to express how I feel these days!  

Feelin' grateful
Feelin' full
Allowing all good
Eager for more

A smile I've been wearing
For quite some time now
Reasons keep coming
Healing is happening

Joy resides
In my heart
I trust myself,
All is well

I feel amazing and
So full of life
Each day I realize
My heart's desires

Now in the past, whenever things are going well it was not unusual for me to be overcome with fear, doubt, and worry.  As a result, I would then self-sabotage.  This time around, my heart is open for more love than I have ever had before.  How am I doing this?  Besides my intenSati practice,  I have also committed to my meditation practice.  This month I am using the Getting Into The Vortex: Guided Meditations CD and User Guide by Abraham Hicks.  I invite you to join me for the next 30 days to meditate on your General Well-Being, Financial Abundance, Physical Well-Being, and Relationships.

My teaching schedule is as follows:
Mondays 6:30am Equinox Columbus Circle (open guest list)
Tuesdays 6:30pm CAN DO Fitness Short Hills (email for guest pass)
Thursdays 5:30pm CAN DO Fitness Edgewater (email for guest pass)

2010 was Ahhhmazing! AND I'm ready for 2011!

A year ago I set the intention to have my best year yet! Looking back on it I am grateful that I indeed fulfilled those intentions.  2010 was a year dedicated to cultivating SELF-LOVE and HONORING MY WORTH.  Making this decision involved taking different actions in many areas of my life.  Here are  some of the highlights:

Me in 2010

I became more aware of my body and how STRONG I am especially when I take care to eat the right foods, get enough sleep and remember to laugh out loud a lot!  This year was a healthy one!  It was great to witness the changes in my physical body and how it affected how I looked and how I felt. 

Also, this year I deepened my spiritual awareness by adapting a meditation practice.  I highly recommend Wayne Dyer's Ah Meditation for manifesting what you want to create in your life.  There are many guided meditations easily available.  If you want to know more about it, a simple google search will lead you to endless options.  This is an area I want to continue cultivating in the next year.  Sitting in silence, quieting my thoughts, and allowing my power from within to guide me is one of the greatest gifts I can give myself daily.     

Me in 2006

Major for this year!!!  I sought out to be an intenSati leader, and went for it with my whole heart and soul using the principles of the practice to prove to me that it doesn't matter where you've been in the past.  It doesn't matter that I didn't have a background in fitness or that just 4 years ago I weighted in at 30 lbs more than today (see pic to the right)!  All that matters is what and how I choose to think and feel right now, so I can take the actions necessary to create the future I want to see.  A year ago, I never imagined I'd be leading 3-4 intenSati classes a week and teaching at Equinox--the home of intenSati. This practice taught me to fall in love with myself, and to believe in who I am.  This is WHY I wanted so much to share this with so many people.  My journey was fueled with joy, gratitude, and appreciation for all of the individuals who attended my classes, as well as family and friends near and far who offered encouraging words of support.  And I cannot thank Patricia Moreno and the Sati Life community enough!  From Warriors to Leaders, your joy, successes, and your determination to move past temporary failures inspired me and OPENED MY HEART!  Thank you all for believing in me and reminding me that as long as I believe it, it shall be.  I'm happy to report that starting next week I have added 2 more classes (1 in EQUINOX NYC, and 1 in CAN DO in NJ) to my weekly teaching schedule.  Join my FB group intenSati with Triccia for more details.

Before I discuss my 2011 intentions, let me share also that 2010 was a year of DECIDING NOT TO SETTLE FOR LESS!  I had put my 'dream relationship' on hold, seriously questioning if I was meant to have that special LOVE in my life.  For many years, I believed that it just wasn't in the cards for me and so I gave up and settled for much, much less.  I began this year with a FIERCE DETERMINATION not to continue these limiting beliefs, by saying goodbye to the man who had held a piece of my heart for far too long!  And while it was very difficult and painful, with each passing day I felt more free, more certain, that by saying NO to what I didn't want, I was saying YES to ME!  I WILL have my Dream relationship.  And this I KNOW for sure!

This process of putting myself back on track regarding love and relationships took the entire year!  Well, almost the entire year! Last night, Dec 30th,  I went on a date--my first one in 2010 and it was a great one, and that's all I'm saying for now:)

YES!  I'm declaring 2011 to be the year I discover the beauty of being in LOVE with the perfect one for me!  And I TRUST that things will unfold as they should!  I will fuel my DREAM with the magical vibes of the season and will FOCUS on the outcome I desire, NO MATTER WHAT!

Thank you for reading my blogs these past 12 months:)  Onto the next...

Have a Happy New Year and may 2011 be a year full of SUCCESS, JOY and LOVE!!!

With Appreciation,
Triccia

What I Celebrate, Appreciates!

Happy Holidays! I love this time of year! One of my favorite SATI affirmations is "what you celebrate, appreciates!" So celebrate LOVE, JOY, SUCCESS, and HEALTH! Yes health! So just because it's December doesn't mean you have to let it all go and gain 5-7lbs, which is what the average person gains.

NEW Class Updates and Turkey thoughts!!

So excited to share with you that I have two new classes starting in December and both are in NJ!  So all of you Hudson County WARRIORS, get ready to get intenSati'sfied!  Please let all of your Jersey peeps know about it!!
Thursdays 5:30pm at CAN DO Fitness in Edgewater, NJ.  
Saturdays 10:30am at Club H Fitness in Jersey City, NJ   

Now, onto Turkey thoughts....WITH DISCIPLINE I AM FREE TO BE A HAPPIER, HEALTHIER ME!  This is one of the lines from this month's series called SHINE!  Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays because it really is about family and food!  Lots of family and lots of food!  The temptation to overeat and drink too much while in the comfort of our loved ones is just too hard to pass up!  And so for many years I didn't.  I would let myself indulge and enjoy.  Hey it's just one day, right?  What would then happen next is that I would go into a food coma and fall asleep and miss out family time:(  Oh, and I work retail so Black Friday is always a big day for me, so being lethargic the day after was never a good move!  And I always regretted it!

So this year, I will practice discipline by taking my time tasting and enjoying my food and not eating as if I'm in a race falsely believing that if I eat too slow all the good stuff will run out and I'll miss out!  No, that never happens because every year there's always too much food leftover anyway!  Also, I will be present to my family.  I intend on showing up and having a meaningful experience versus just going through the motions.  I intend to honor the true meaning of the day, by giving thanks for all of the blessing in my life.  I am excited because my Mom will be in town, and it will be the first Thanksgiving in 4 years that we'll be together!  Don't get me wrong!  I WILL EAT AND ENJOY!! But this time I will be present and I will know when I've had enough.  And there is plenty of Sati before and after Thanksgiving to burn off that Turkey goodness!!  No regrets!!  Aaaahhhhh! 



This week intenSati classes abound!! 

I am teaching at Ripley Grier on Wednesday 11/24 6pm!  I hope you will join me!  It will be my last class there for 2010!!

Also, on Wednesday night at 7:30pm Equinox Park & 33rd with Jolynn Baca members and non-members welcome so please come early and bring ID!

And for you Boston peeps, on Sat 11/27 Equinox Back Bay intensati with Natalia Pertzela at 9:30 am, 10:30 core. $25 for non-members.  Don't miss this special event!!

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!!!

BRILLIANT!

That's the word supermodel, Iman, used to describe intenSati on yesterday's episode of the Wendy Williams show!  See link below to watch the clip.  FUN!!

One of the main ideas behind intenSati is "thoughts become things"!!  And our actions, therefore, are our beliefs in motion.  So rather than looking out and blaming external factors for your circumstances, can you instead look within and examine your beliefs about your self and your dreams?  It's not as easy to do, but it sure is much more empowering!  When we align our thoughts and attitudes, taking action toward our dreams becomes easier to do!  It's not just what we do that matters!  It's what we believe about ourselves that matter more!  It all starts with our thoughts.  In intenSati we challenge our old, limiting beliefs by saying positive affirmations out loud.  We do this to reprogram that inner voice that is full of doubt, fear, worry, regret.  And we practice new thoughts that  empower, inspire, and elevate our being! 

I particularly love the lower body portion of this month's SHINE series:

What I sow is what I reap
All I need is within me
I have the power to choose
To believe in my dreams

With love,
Triccia

Sati with me either on Thursday 6PM Ripley Grier 520 8th Avenue OR Saturday (this week only) 8AM Powerhouse Gym in Bridgewater, NJ

10.10.10

Can you believe it's October? 2010 is going full speed ahead! This past Sunday was 10/10/10. And while I'm sure those numbers have varying meanings to many people, I got to thinking about those numbers and wondered am I living a 10/10/10 in Love, Career, Health? Am I playing big in all 3 areas? Am I pursuing my dreams wholeheartedly with passion, excitement, and enthusiasm? To be honest the answer is no, I am not! I know exactly where I am playing big and where I have been playing small! However, I am committing to playing full out for the rest of 2010 in the above mentioned areas! Over the next few days I am calling in clarity as I set my intentions by remembering WHY I want what I want in the above areas. I am calling in peace of mind as I accept and embrace where I am today as the starting point for this journey, reminding myself that my power is in the present moment. I will then be putting together an action plan that is best suited to have me feeling, and being my best self. This is a tall order I know. And I am willing to go for it with a full knowing that what I want is already here for me! And this I believe.

How about you? What areas of your life are you going after and are you ready to achieve greater success and confidence? The decision to go for greatness takes courage and a lot of heart! The great thing about this is that I am not alone and neither are you! In intenSati we affirm our willingness to take responsibility for our lives and by doing so we lift ourselves up! And when we are uplifted, we consequently uplift and inspire others around as too! This is why people love coming to an intenSati class! We actually refer to it as a Practice. It is a way of being. Deliberately choosing our thoughts, emotions and actions to manifest our dreams takes practice and lots of love. If this sounds good to you, then do yourself a favor and show up for yourself! Show up to be inspired by inspiring someone else!

So how about it? Are you willing to go for your 10/10/10 in 2010? Join me and other powerful Sati Warriors every Thursday 6pm at Ripley Grier at 520 8th Avenue bet 36th/37th St. Class is $15 or 4 for $50. Want an even better deal? Class is FREE for you if you bring a friend who has never SATI'ed before!

Much Love to You!
Triccia
