Like a meal that is so good and prepared with so much love, one bite satisfies everything. That is what this first day of teaching was like in our new space.
What matters is the soul in the space. Of course who doesn’t love beautiful wood floors, lights with dimmer switches, or an ocean view as they are doing yoga? However, we can’t always practice by the ocean, or a fancy space, or a dark quiet cave. That’s why it is important to take yoga with you, so you don't have to wait for the perfect conditions - it is always there. Today a simple, humble (but large!) space was transformed into… soul food! Hopeful. Energetic. Exciting. Beautiful.
It was surreal to experience the moment a dream, an idea, comes to fruition. At times in my life I have feared running out of inspiration and creativity. Today, however, I felt limitless possibility. Maybe I am starting to uncover more of the phoenix within.
“A mythical bird that never dies, the phoenix flies far ahead to the front, always scanning the landscape and distant space. It represents our capacity for vision, for collecting sensory information about our environment and the events unfolding within it. The phoenix, with its great beauty, creates intense excitement and deathless inspiration.” – The Feng Shui Hnadbook, feng shui Master Lam Kam Chuen
I sure feel like flying!
I am so blessed to have such loving and supportive friends. Thank you for taking the time to be at class today, but also bringing such wondering energy into it! Watching you do your work in each asana was beautiful, and an absolute gift to witness.
I also want to thank Dr. Dave for welcoming us into his space and into the warm, caring community he has built there. Every time I walk into this clinic, everyone is smiling, healing, growing stronger. It is such a genuine place, and Cory and I are so grateful for this new partnership. Yoga is about the people.
I look forward to relishing future experiences with you on the yoga mat…. Yummy.
