Home Practice

Don't get discouraged if you have distractions when you try to do a home yoga practice.  This funny picture is a good portrayal of what happens at my house.  My cats think if I'm in the floor I should be playing with them. 

“There are times when it will go so wrong that you will barely be alive, and times when you realize that being barely alive, on your own terms, is better than living a bloated half-life on someone else’s terms”

—	Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal? Surrender into child's pose....literally.

Be Still & Listen

"A golden light is in our midst. It burns as peace, as hope, as love, as God. Feel its healing presence pass through you. Send it to another with a kind & loving thought. Know this: As it heals the inside, so can it heal the outside--for the world is but a reflection of what lies within." (S Myrvang)

The only way we find that healing presence is to allow ourselves time to be still and listen.  Give yourself just 5 minutes.  It can make all the difference. 

Spinal Twist

Wring yourself out....like water out of a rag.  And when you think you've got it all...twist in the opposite direction and wring a little more out.
