Happy New Year!
May this year be rich with opportunities to explore deeply, to play freely and love whole heartedly.
Here's something beautiful that I hope inspires and ignites you. A quote and hope for you from
this short Tedtalk: "I wish that you will open your heart to all these
blessings and let them flow through you and that everyone you meet on
this day will be blessed by you. Just by your eyes, by your smile, by
your touch. Just by your presence. Let the gratefulness overflow to
blessing all around you." -Benedictine monk Brother David Steindl-Rast,
narrator of Louie Schwartzberg's film.
You'll find an attached Integration Meditation to support you in
bringing in the lush mystery of the new year with your insights from
2012. If you've done any Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy with me you'll
recognize it as the meditation we do at the end of the session or
workshop. See what it's like to use it to reflect on your year, what
wisdom you can draw from it, and how you can set that into motion in a
real way.
This year has been, well, a lot of things. There's been calm, and there
has been chaos... And through the whole spectrum of it there's been
community. I've been so blessed by the loving, generous support from all
the lovelies that make it what it is. The healing, inspiration and
abunDance flowing through it has helped me to be so much more whole than
I could be on my own. The caring presence of people around has made me
feel so rich, even while experiencing loss. Thank you. Simply for being
present. It is my hopes that by practicing Yoga in all the ways that we
do we continue to cultivate that caring, compassionate, loving presence
in an empowering way that benefits all beings.
May all beings be peaceful and free
May we be fearless and play ^.^
