Profile Information
- About Me:
- I love to read, write, learn, explore new ideas/ theories/ ancient healing/ philosophies/ countries/ cultures/ foods/ music/ nature/ art. Anything new, alive, innovative, challenging, beautiful, creative, unconventional, humorous, inspirational, and/or authentic, I go after and embrace! The world is my playground and I am but a child. :)
I absolutely love being in nature. Even though I live in a big city (which is only temporary, because I say so), I thrive in the wild, among the trees, plants, moss, mud, birds, lakes, ocean, monkeys, lions, tigers, and bears, Oh my! Ok, so maybe the last 3 I enjoy from a distance! But still, nature feeds my soul like nothing else. There is so much natural beauty in this world and I want to bask in the beauty of it all! I have a pretty independent, spontaneous and adventurous side. There's really nothing that I won't explore in this world ...within reason. I mean, I'm not overly tempted to swim in a cage with sharks during feeding time, but anything else, I welcome with a smile. :)
Anything relating to the holistic/ alternative health field is sure to be of interest to me! Service to humanity is fundamental to my purpose, so I'm always reading, researching, and experimenting with the latest superfood or energy healing technique. I figure the more I learn and experience for myself in the field of health and wellness, the more I can help others along their path of personal growth, health, healing and fulfillment on all levels.
Having creative outlets is very important since we are creative beings! All forms of art and music uplift and inspire me! I'd love to have an art show someday. :) I also love getting creative in the kitchen experimenting with raw ingredients!
I believe there is a field of energy that connects all of creation, that is both holographic and nonlocal. I'm deeply interested in exploring this field and developing my “spiritual” self, which is why I enjoy meditation, connecting with nature, and of course, people of all ages and from all walks of life! People absolutely fascinate me! I feel that every single person has an interesting story to tell and many gifts to share if we only take the time to listen. I take this attitude towards everyone I meet and find it makes life a lot more enjoyable and interesting. :)
(I've had a few people on this site ask me how I pronounce my name, so I thought I'd let you know, for those of you who don't that it's pronounced "lay-ah"... like Princess Leia. :)
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- Simply be being their joyful self and allowing that love & light to radiate out into the world!!! :)
- Relationship Status:
- Married
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- Anything organic, fresh & local
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):
- Smiling, laughing, yoga, hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, camping, traveling, painting, photography, drawing, reading, pondering, learning, "unlearning", writing, exploring, growing, evolving, singing, playing, “EPFX-ing”, tree hugging, people hugging, animal hugging, teleporting (ok, maybe not yet, but I'm getting there), talking, connecting, energy balancing, meditating, listening, being, dancing, jumping, prancing, playing, and forever twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom! :)
- Favorite Books or Authors:
- Anastasia and The Ringing Cedars Series, The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire, The Divine Matrix, DMT: The Spirit Molecule,The Spontaneous Healing of Belief, Evolve Your Brain, The Sunfood Diet Success System, Spiritual Nutrition, I Am That, Science and the Akashic Field, Vibrational Medicine, The Intention Experiment, Awakening Intuition, The Catcher in the Rye, The Power of Now, A New Earth, Walden, and The Secret Life of Plants, to name a few.
- Favorite Quote:
- "The most creative act you will ever undertake is the act of creating yourself." - Deepak Chopra

- GI2MR Oath: I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I will not name call or throw around personal attacks. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. When possible, I'll try to smile : )

Beautiful Waipio Valley, Big Island
Aloha! I've been on the Big Island of Hawaii for the last month and a half, "WWOOFing" and it's been an incredible experience so far! I've been learning so much about sustainable living and organic farming! I've been able to eat delicious, fresh, and organic produce from the garden everyday, and I've had the weekends to explore this breathtaking island! The WWOOFing gang and I went to Waipio Valley over the weekend and took some footage of this incredibly stunning place! I thought I'd share…

Long-Distance Quantum Biofeedback, Holistic Nutrition & Spiritual Readings
The video below is for those of you who may be interested in my services. Through these social networking sites, such as GI2MR, facebook and youtube, I've connected with so many wonderful, like-minded people- WOW, it's truly amazing! Many of these people have inquired about some of my services, so I thought I'd make a quick video to let you know what I offer. If you're interested- wonderful! If not... wonderful!

Sukadev Bretz posted a videoIf you can do headstand, it is easier to do the Lotus position there then sitting. 62 year old Narayani explains why and demonstrates how to do Urdhva Padmasana, Headstand in Lotus, also called inverted Lotus Position. It is a more advance Hatha Yoga Asana. You should know the basics of Yoga before trying. Even if you can't try, it is beautiful to watch. Recording in Yoga Vidya Ashram Meinberg. In the background you can see a mural of the Kundalini Shakti going through the 7 Chakras.
