A spiritual chic in the city...

Namaste!

As a spiritual chic living in the city I often find myself feeling claustrophobic and overwhelmed with all that comes with city life. The noise, pollution, people, smells, sights, lack of room to move, and at times the sheer ugliness of it all is just too much. If I could move out into the country or even better, a cabin in the woods, I would be there in a second. But it just isnt convenient for our lifestyle at the moment as my husbands work demands us to be living in a capital city.

Sure there are little patches of nature within the suburbs with parks etc. But it is the noise of people that gets to me. Somehow I need to drown out that noise, with the bliss that comes from turning my attention inwards. I need to feel that stillness and expansiveness that is my own spirit. And if I have to find that peace in the serenity of listening to a nature cd sitting at home, then that may have to do for now.

Fortunately we are soon to move house. At the top of my wish list will be a beautiful backyard with a garden, in a street that is away from a main road and noise. I am putting this out to the universe now. I will draw this to me.... to find a little piece of heaven inside the hustle and bustle of the city.

After all, there must be plenty of spiritually orientated people who have found inner peace with city life. There is certainly no reason that I cannot find it within myself.

Love, light and spirit to you all...
