Synchronicity




Synchronicity is described in good 'ole Webster's as the coincidental occurrence of events and especially psychic events (similar thoughts in widely separated persons or a mental image of the unexpected event before it happens)....and more.

You know you're in the flow of synchronicity when:

1) you take a yoga class and the thought flits through your mind that it would be a great place to hold writing workshops

2) the next week at lunch you mention to a friend that you're entertaining the idea of holding writing workshops again, but it's a hassle to find a good location

3) you arrive home from said luncheon that afternoon and there's an email from one of the instructors at the Danville Yoga Center (www.danvilleyogacenter.com) asking if you'd be interested in teaching a writing and yoga month-long workshop

4) you meet the owner a few days later and agree easily that it's the right thing to do

5) you come home from your meeting and decide to listen in on a free teleseminar through the National Association of Memoir Writers (www.namw.org) and it's all about journaling. You don't know who the speaker is, but something she said rang a bell. You turn around and look and the book she's speaking about is perched on your bookshelf, right in front of you--and it's a great foundation for your upcoming class in July!

There's something so powerful when we state our intention/hope/wish out loud and without attachment....

and sit back to watch the breathtaking beauty of its' manifestation rolling in like a California fog~

Amazing world we live in, amazing life, if we choose to let it be, huh?

So, here's two prompts for you:

The last time a synchronistic event happened, I knew that ----

  1. Hi Cindy,

    Hopped over from www.triciasanders.blogspot.com I love your writing prompts. I'll give them a try. And a writing and yoga workshop sounds interesting. Good luck with it.

  4. Great photo!! Wow! Where was it taken?

    I love synchronicity and invite it to be a major part of my life...AND for me to be aware of it! I think it happens more than we realize.
