Little Bo Breath
Little Bo Breath has lost her depth, And can’t tell where to find it: She closes her eyes, tunes inside And breathes from hips to armpits. When you feel shallow and dull, deeply breath to get more full. Settle your seat and settle your feet. Close your eyes and visualize a cave in each armpit; …
The Royal Mind
Hmmm, Our Monkey Mind
Our Mind Monkey~
Is restless, and random,
Rebellious, and junky?Silly, and scattered
Like a toddler in its movement~
Won’t settle down,
And needs vast improvement?The mind is a problem,
That we need to control.
It’s random, and restless
And a bit of a troll?That’s nonsense, we say!
And quite derogatory!
The nature of the mind
Is going for glory!The mind is evolutionary,
progressive, dynamic.
Always seeking and moving
toward that which is magic.
So, think NOT monkey mind
More like, mind is royalty~
A King to Serve
With Love and Loyalty.But, how can we Serve,
The Great Intelligence of our minds?
By meditation and mantras
And movement refined.
By exceptional quality
Of the company we keep,
What we see, what we hear,
How well we do sleep.By lavish feasts of sutras,
Of songs, and of silence,
Of settling, and stillness
And speech for your Highness.Much of your activity
Will settle in bliss~
Yet portions of Royal Mind
Will continue to hiss.And that, my dear friend~
Is the Great Intelligence~
It wants more and more
Of higher elegance.The Discipline of yoga,
Now, you see,
Is in permitting and inviting
This process~ to BE.“Lightbulb!”…Recognizing The Importance of Honoring Your Self!
Have you ever felt not worthy? Maybe you lacked Self-love or maybe you didn’t surround yourself with goodness at the time. Who we surround ourselves with is who we become. If we surround ourselves with downers we begin to feel down. If we surround ourselves with happy, joyous, and delightful people we become more happy and joyful. If we were to eat junk food every single day we would begin to feel down and ucky. When we eat healthier we experience delight and Self-love. Honor Your Self! Surround yourself with goodness. “The first step toward awareness is being willing to look at yourself and your life without judgment or self-criticism.” (Iyanla Vanzant) Awareness opens the heart to new possibilities.Grounded in Concentration

Our children have an opinion and I feel it is important for them to be heard. In my classes I welcome discussion and I let my students know that their opinions matter. Yesterday’s classes were magically healing. My Thursday morning class at LEAD Homeschool in Avondale Estates started off the day with heart opening poses…
