Byebye Byron, Tolle's teachings and dorm life

Apparently I'm not that regular of a writer than I thought I'd be, even though I was living in a house with wifi. Sure I used it quite a bit, but mostly for researching or learning purposes and entertainment such as music for dancing or chords for playing guitar. Netflix sometimes for I really like learning about Royals' history and at the moment I'm watching The Last Kingdom. It's interesting how they divided people based on where they came from like danes, saxons, britons and how difficult it must have been being a king and deciding either to battle or kiss someone else's ass. And how they punished those that didn't kiss their ass. Thank God the world has changed, though there still exist horrible things and horrible minds wanting to control others by disgusting ways. Yet I feel that love is winning and the bad energies are slowly vanishing from this planet.

I said bye to Byron Bay last Friday. The last weeks were hectic and energetically overwhelming at times, but I learned a lot more about myself, my past self and how others see me (though everyone sees through their own eyes and experiences), healed many relationship issues (influenced by Venus in retrograde and full moon in Libra http://www.collective-evolution.com/2017/04/10/full-moon-in-libra-an-evolution-in-our-relationships/), bought a flight to Bali (flying on Friday!!!), a ticket to see Eckhart Tolle in Brisbane and one week stay at Bunk Brisbane, where I'm sleeping in an 8-bed dorm. Not sure how we manage to breathe there for there ain't no windows in the rooms nor the corridors... So you can only imagine the air being fresh... Air condition we do have though but I don't think that gives us any oxygen.

Last night I woke up to someone having sex in our room. Twice I've already experienced someone having sex below my bed. The first time they finished before they finished cause the girl realised I can feel the movement, but then we talked about it when she was a bit drunk two days after and she was embarrassed about it, I told her there's no need and that night they did it again haha. Couldn't sleep for an hour after that. Two more nights here and I'll be in Ubud, a town I fell in love with last year based on one day, 9 nights in a beautiful retreat place. Literally can not wait <3 I miss my own space and alone time. There I'll learn to swim with a mermaid tail and create a mermaid yoga, for kids have had near-drown experiences because they can't swim with a tail straight away. Need to strengthen back muscles (at least) first. I've tried swimming with one twice now, once we were in a waterpark in Byron with Bridgette's friend Michelle and her daughter Evie, who was pretty good swimming with one, but Atlas had a little bit worse experience.. And the second time was here at the hostel, one of my roommates tried it with me and she was so happy she said she's never gonna take it off. It's pretty fun hah. Also my friend Emmi was working in Gili Air in a reception in exchange for a free stay and free yoga, I'd LOVE to do the same. <3333

I've been wanting to fight for a while now, I used to do Muay Thai (thai boxing) a few years ago (almost ten years ago x) and sometimes I air box. It's a good way getting rid of negative energies that we absorb day to day basis. The other day I had a thought that maybe after 2 months in Indonesia I could go to Thailand for a bit. It'll be my birthday then so I don't know, maybe back to Byron to celebrate with people I know rather than with randoms or not at all.. Doesn't really matter at this point. But I guess Indonesia will give me answers to that. My beautiful friend Lizette is coming to Australia in July so I want to be back by then. Miss her a looot. She's as crazy as I am, so I feel like home when she's around haha. Plus we got some cool stuff to do. Though now that I've been in Brisbane for a few days, I feel like the city vibe is not for me. Especially when there's no nature here, makes it harder to breathe. I've been So Byron Bay is already whispering come back to me, but I might fly to Cairns and come down from there through Whitsunday Island (there's also Hook Island - I knew Australia is Neverland ;), Airlie beach and Noosa.

Eckhart Tolle was talking about the power of now, he's new book, and the awakening and even though I've been in the journey of awakening for some time, it was interesting how he spoke to people who might not have yet started it. I noticed the reactions of people around me to the words he said, realising that the negativity in their minds is their reality, not everyone's, and each of us has our own reality. He's doing a very good job for the awakening of humankind. The power of now includes everything, for there is no past nor future. Everything happens in the now. And thoughts are powerful. Anyway he's a funny dude, and a wise man. Way better explaining things than I am now, I'm so hungry, couldn't be bothered to go see the art at GoMA (Gallery of Modern Art) after seeing The Beauty and the Beast just now. Now I'm sitting at The Library Cafe eating quiche and salad. Oh I wish I was in Bali already. I need a massage. Though one guy from the hostel, physiotherapist, gave me one the other day in exchange for one from me, but it was very short. And in the movies I massaged my back with a massage stick that I took with me from Finland. Also I get to focus on me again and balance my energies. Might sound selfish but this past year for me (since my last birthday in June) - numerologically - has been a year of the hermit. So I really need a lot of alone time. And I love the eastern vibes. Can't wait to dance in my private room... And sing. Two more nights.......

Atlas' birthday was held on April 8th at the skate park in Suffolk park. He turned 6 and there were a bunch of kids and their parents there. It was good, Bridgette had an angry bird cake made and it was sooo good. I was the photographer but my laptop is too full I haven't been able to put them up yet. Taran's 5th birthday is this weekend and I want to send him a present. Also I want to send something to my godson, maybe from Indonesia. It's funny but they turn the time here as well, towards summer, so that it's dark before 6pm already. I don't get it. Why would they want dark earlier? I've seen snaps from Finland though and it's snowing there. Almost May and it's snowing. I hope summer will be better than spring. Finnish people really do need the sun hey.

Today is a new moon in Taurus. There are plenty of other stuff happening in the skies at the same time, you can read about it here http://www.collective-evolution.com/2017/04/25/new-moon-in-taurus-the-beginning-of-a-new-wave-of-energy/
New moons are good times to set intentions for the next six month period and Taurus is an earth sign, so connecting with the earth will also be a good idea. In Byron I found myself sitting in a tree near the house many times watching the stars. And here I've leaned against one almost every day. Some trees are good for climbing, though I might need a friend to do that with in a city...

In Indonesia I will only have time for myself and my creative stuff, or how ever I choose. At least I want to dance and write a lot. I'll be seeing my french friend Laura too, haven't seen her since our graduation from yoga teacher training course in India in March 2015. Will be so good to see her again. She's a crazy chick ;) In a good way. She's teaching two yoga retreats and I might teach her students my style. We'll see what I manage to create. Exciteeeeed!

Loooots of love to my family and friends in Finland, I've missed you all, and love you loads.

Xxx, Cecca
