NOW, the practice of yoga begins*, not in the moment you want it to be, but in the moment now as it is.

Any and all situations are the door to opportunity. Yoga is the key.

Thank the moment for this opportunity to practice yoga!

*Yoga sutra 1.1

Like a flower scented spring breeze, yoga and meditation can clean out and freshen our being sweeping away that which hinders our growth.

Firmly grounded, we stretch towards the heavens like a young seedling.

Feel the freedom and rejuvenation of spring both inside and outside you!

Freedom can be found in the little things–dropping a nagging thought or feeling, giving up a judgement, or in a shift of mood….

We come to yoga and meditation with our amassed stresses and discomforts and somehow leave the mat or meditation cushion feeling a little freer, somehow lighter, maybe a little calmer… or happier….

Liberation is at hand in even the littlest of things!

Through our yoga and meditation, we become more free of the things that bind us–shackles of the heart, mind, and spirit–freer to give of ourselves more generously.

We become freer to love, to joy, and to laughter.

We become freer to live!

We can become crowded and cramped by our own assumptions and old habits.

Yoga and meditation can free us of these.

Through our yoga and meditation practices, the light helps illumine, realign, transform, and clear away that which obstructs it.

Courting contentment* can be most satisfying.

It’s not easy getting along with her given our habitual unrest, moods, and negativities.

Nevertheless, her accepting ways are truly transformative!

Thank God, she’s anything but picky!

*We can “court” contentment or santosha via our yoga and meditation practices. Santosha is the 2nd of the Niyamas in the Yoga Sutras.  Click here to learn more.

Grab your yoga strap,*

and breathe deep for this energizing chest opener!

 *or extra long belt!

Focus on peace in your meditation and yoga practices.

Nurture and grow this relationship.

As you cultivate your relationship with peace, you vibrate more with it…

and bring this to the world.

Let peace seduce you.

Devotion grows the space between the breaths,

or at least our experience of it.

Allow yourself to drop deeper and deeper into it via your meditation and yoga practices.

Cultivate peace!
