This kaleidoscope life

The kaleidoscope’s pieces are in an ever-changing state of disarray.

And yet we marvel at its beauty with its turn.

Meditation and yoga can help us gain such a vision of this ever-changing life.

We can learn to marvel at the beauty with each turn of events.

Such is life. and so it will always be, ever-changing.

The practices can not only help us adapt to this, but to see the beauty in each turn!

It’s a new day!

Stuck in a rut? Does every day seem the same, or are you in the doldrums?

Want to live with more enthusiasm? With more energy? With more positivity? If so, yoga and mediation can help.

The practices will help you wake up to the new day…

because it is!

Revive!

Yoga and meditation with their inner focus can provide the solitude that revives our connection to that which is bigger than ourselves and that we all equally share.

Naturalists like John Muir know that connection with nature can revive us.

Through the practices, as we connect to our deepest nature, we revive our bodies, our spirits, and our minds.

It is in this deepest connection that we find out we are not alone at all but deeply interconnected.

Practice yoga and meditation and connect to our deepest nature… and revive!

Carried away

Through yoga and meditation, we make the effort to turn towards the light.

As we practice, we open our bodies, minds, and hearts to the power of practice.

Like a boat with its sails filled by the wind. we, with our unfurled being, are carried by grace… carried away by love.

Sweet!

Even if we do not have a sweet tooth, we all like something sweet.

Such are the blessings of our yoga and meditation practice.

The practices hit our sweet spot. We can feel it. Think the end of class or what we notice after a good meditation.

We know this space from practice, and we can return to it again and again, not only in actual practice but versions of it in our lives.

This is the space of grace. We are graced by it echoing throughout our lives and sharing it with others.

Sweet!

The light that casts no shadows

The Light we encounter in yoga and meditation is different from that of the sun or a light bulb.

The latter naturally casts shadows.

But not the Light of yoga. It subsumes shadows, as well as the objects that could cast them.

The world scintillates with this Light. It lives this world from the inside out.

A light conversation

Most of us are almost always up for a little light conversation.

We come away feeling good, better humored, a little happier with the world.

In yoga and meditation, we also have a light conversation. As we practice, we are having this conversation with the life force that flows through us and is becoming our life, with the Light of our being. By the end of practice, we often end up feeling better, a little lighter in our being, better humored, a little more even keeled.

How about you? Are up for a light conversation?

Press pause

Life never really takes a pause. It is always… ALIVE!

However, when we practice yoga or meditation, we take a pause from our daily activity. We then can experience and examine and increase our awareness of this life force, the Prana Shakti, our dance partner that is giving us life.

This refreshed connection with the life force reconnects us to all of life… in nature, in our fellow humans, in all the myriad of forms it takes.

So press pause for a moment and deepen your experience of the mystery of life.

Press pause, and come more alive!
