A new chapter begins…
 

I am filled with delight that I will be back to teaching a regular weekly class this Friday~ becoming a mom has been a great pause for the last 10 months, however my heart longs to teach again, to be in community, to share, to play, to deepen in conversation with each other…to fall over, laugh and keep movin’ on to the next pose…together. We will begin our contemplative study of Sadhana of the Heart by Gurumayi Chidvilasananda this week as we discuss and play with her chapter titled “Blaze the Trail of Equipoise and Enter the Heart, the Divine Splendor.” If one can renounce what burdens one's soul then one can attain equipoise, if one can attain equipoise one can enter the Heart and if one can enter the Heart one can attain Divine Splendor. What burdens your soul? What is equipoise? What does it mean to renounce something? What is Divine Splendor? One of my favorite quotes from this chapter is “In sadhana you must learn what to let go of and what to hang on to, and when.” I look forward to deepening this conversation with you either in class on Friday &/or via this blog (which by the way I am SO excited about!).

Splendorous and…sore!!!
It was a beautiful reunion this past Friday…. The afternoon brought such splendor to my heart in so many ways, and my calves have been re-awakened to their full potential!  Last night at a friend’s wedding I was talking with some students and we were amazed at how sore our calves were- what did we [...]
