Heart of the desert


I've spent the week at the heart of the desert retreat in Arizona. With my Bright Path friends. Through laughter, play, meditation, our teacher's talks, super amazing food, and yes, sunshine, I've received many gifts.  

The power of these three gifts are yours to continuously discover if you so choose:

Three universal gifts that you can give to others and give them frequently and bountifully are:

APPRECIATE EVERYONE 
You can always find something to appreciate. 

LIVE WITH A GRATEFUL HEART
Every moment giving thanks for what is right in front of you brings you more. 

LOVE PASSIONATELY 
Include the whole world in your love bubble and laugh just because you are so loved.

Little yoga routine


A warming routine since spring still hasn't quite sprung:

Half dog at wall.
Push into wall as you stretch hips back.

Warrior 1

Warrior 2

Downward dog

Child's pose

Boat. Do this one three times :)

Seated twist. With legs in cow head pose if you'd like a variation.

Lie down in savasana and let your eyes sink down towards the back of the head.
Feel that Mother Earth comes from below to support your weight. Let go of all the shoulds and got to do stuff in your mind. Let everything be exactly as it is.

Namaste.

Little yoga routine

Spring is here!
There were seven, yes, seven fluffed up robins sitting in my birch tree this morning. They were looking dazed and cold. Where are the worms and grass?

Your routine for this week:
Eagle pose

Squat. It's good for you!

Downward dog

Pigeon

Seated twist

Savasana:
Visualize a full moon shining inside your head. The moonlight is spreading out, filling the space inside of you and all around you. Nothing stops the light, as it spreads to infinity. Dissolve the mind in that light.
