Drum Circle with Jack Licitra February 9th at 7pm

Greetings Dearest Yoga Students,

Hope this shift in the weather has reminded you of the promise of Spring; it comes in just over 6 weeks!!  Let this shift remind us that nothing lasts, that everything is impermanent and passes away; weather pleasurable and warm or uncomfortable and freezing!  Things shift and we shift with them.  Remembering that shifting, changing and becoming is what we were born for.   Enjoy the journey and let your heart be at peace.  Join us this week for two very special gatherings.  Tuesday’s Reiki Circle and/or the Community Drum Circle on Saturday night!  All are welcome.

**Two Spots Available for Tuesday Night’s Synergy Session**

Woman With Flower

by Naomi Long Madgatt

I wouldn’t coax the plant if I were you.

Such watchful nurturing may do it harm.

Let the soil rest from so much digging and wait until it’s dry before you water it.

The leaf’s inclined to find its own direction;

Give it a chance to seek the sunlight for itself.

Much growth is stunted by too much prodding,

Too eager tenderness.

The things we love we have to learn to leave alone.

Dearest Yoga Students,

Yoga gives specific tools to lead a well balanced life, full of love, presence and adventure.  All we need to do is continue to follow our breath, open our minds, and move energy in our bodies to feel the fullness of being alive.  As we become more aware of our habits, and how our state of mind effects our actions, it is only natural that we begin to make better decisions.   Join us this week as we once again clear away the clutter to find what is always waiting for us, freedom!

Dear Yoga Enthusiasts,

I love when a student emails me to ask for a poem I read in class, or to comment about a pose or a feeling they encountered during practice. I love getting feedback from you!  So please don’t hesitate to comment to me whether its something positive or something I need to be aware of to improve your experience.  I read the  following poem last week and was asked to share it.  You may want to print it and pull it out whenever Winter is getting the best of you!  I know I will. (Scroll down for the poem).

Love, light and peace as we begin this next trip around the sun!

Happy New Year to you all!

Winter Teaches Me by Joyce Rupp

Winter teaches me patience:

Walk carefully on icy sidewalks. Drive slower through snarled traffic.

Take more time to put on layers of clothes.  Wait for streets to be cleared of snow.

Be understanding about mail arriving late.

Winter strengthens my courage:

Go out into windy, freezing air.Risk traveling on snowy roads.

Dress warmly and go for a walk.  Ski through woods, alone and free.

Be a peace in long days of darkness.

Winter brings me beauty:

Look up at the star-filled sky. Pause to breathe the crisp air.

Vigil with steel-blue sunsets.  Marvel at the frost etchings on windows.

Sink boots into soft, sensual powder.

Winter gives me silent hope:

Touch the terminal buds on branches.Clear the snow and find green moss below.

Watch the sunlight fade, then linger longer.Stand with the strength of evergreen trees.

Listen to the birds cheeping at the feeder.

Namaste Dear Ones,

Amy

11th Annual Winter Solstice Celebration

Thursday, December 20th 7 to 9pm

Join us for a Winter Solstice Celebration as we come together in Sangha to celebrate the return of light!! On this darkest of days we will light up the night with intention setting meditation, candle lighting ceremony, musical chanting, fun group yoga poses and refreshments (Please bring a small dish to share) . This is a fun evening that has become a wonderful tradition honoring this auspicious time of year.

There is no charge, this is my gift to you, however, I am asking for a donation of $10 donation of which all proceeds will be donated to the Invited Inn Soup Kitchen in Rocky Point.  

All are welcome, please rsvp to let me know you will attend.

Do not try to save
the whole world
or do anything grandiose.
Instead, create a clearing…
in the dense forest
of your life and wait there patiently,
until the song that is your life
falls into your own cupped hands
and you recognize and greet it.
Only then will you know
how to give yourself
to this world so worthy of rescue.
