I offer your these flowers…similarly, yoga offers beauty inward and outward, for our body and soul. What keeps me practicing each day is the fact that when I don’t I am out of balance. My flower dies…aches and pains. You know what I mean? Balance with our bodies takes getting into a habit each day and doing some kind of yoga practice. Yoga is different than jogging or other types of exercise but it also enhances them! I love to climb, surf, snow board etc. because of my yoga practice I am actually better at these sports.
But how do we take care of our soul? Our soul, the part of us that wants freedom, creativity, to taste the newness of life, to smell the sweetness of spring, hear the quiet at dawn or the simple knowing we are all connected and not separate from nature.
Yoga, all it’s variations, is the way to increasing our freedom. Just doing yoga releases creative energy to try new things. You know how good it feels after a yoga class! All parts of you are open: mind, body, heart and your soul. I wonder why people stop practicing yoga regularly? There are those days, but it shouldn’t be weeks. If I haven’t seen you for a while let me know what’s up? It’s spring time and we should have fun practicing together either in class or at the lake, on retreat but somewhere. See you soon.
Lot’s of love
