Beautiful Yantra by Chanti at www.yantrawisdom.com (time to order next year’s calendar!)

Today, as I was marking my calendar, I recieved a message from Ms. J. She just wrote “Just checking in to see how crazy your life is right now.” Thank you Thank you Friend for caring to check in. Here’s the antidote – words, words, words of beauty:

“It is a strange and wonderful fact to be here, walking around in a body, to have a whole world within you and a world at your fingertips outside you. It is an immense privilege, and it is incredible that humans manage to forget the miracle of being here. Rilke said, ‘Being here is so much,’ and it is uncanny how social reality can deaden and numb us so that the mystical wonder of our lives goes totally unnoticed. We are here. We are wildly and dangerously free.”

― John O’Donohue

“One of the reasons so many people are suffering from stress is not that they are doing stressful things but that they allow so little time for silence.”

― John O’Donohue, Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom

“A friend is someone who wishes what is good for the other.”

― John O’Donohue, Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom

So, in that recognition, thank you friend. Crazy indeed it is.

Celtic wisdom, Vedic, Ayurvedic Wisdom, Persian wisdom, Japanese wisdom, Chinese wisdom … wisdom is wisdom wherever it originates from, East – West, as everything crosses over. Honoring the distinct and unique origins while marveling at the common thread that ribbons around us dancing in an entropy swirling with rhythmic vibrations only to recognize that Source we share, the Oneness. The wise are the benefactors and we are all the beneficiaries of such treasure trove of wisdom. Bowing to the wise who restores the JOY in our hearts. Namaste:)

Big Bang.

Heard Dan Siegel’s fascinating lecture last night. Having missed him at Niroga Institute’s conference, this was a treat to attend this lecture put on by the local high school district.
While the talk was mainly on teenage brain, it was applicable to anyone – children, adolescents to adults as we all have a … brain. AND a … mind. Here is a link to his website and a video of an interview on the book called, Mind. It’s actually all YOGA (where’s the HEART?) but now with the science. Exploring the brain (the physical), mind and consciousness … vis-a-vis study of … TIME.

Fascinating.

Check out his video on the link I provided. It will bring you peace.

Ninety eight percent of the adults in this country are decent, hardworking, honest Americans.
It’s the other lousy two percent that get all the publicity. But then, we elected them.

Fascia is a band or sheet of connective tissue, primarily collagen, beneath the skin that attaches, stabilizes, encloses, and separates muscles and other internal organs.
Ligaments join one bone to another bone.
Tendons join muscle to bone …

SO what?

It does a body good, when we get both the muscle strengthening as well as the releasing of the above referenced connective tissues to better feel the flow within.

Teaching Thanksgiving Day?
Why not? Will offer the Yang and the Yin yoga combo Thanksgiving Day morning – all poses may be modified and all sequence will flow through to create that sense of ease and grace within.
Namaste 🙂
