Everything we do takes willingness.  A willingness to take risks, to trust yourself and others, to remain open even when it’s difficult and,  most of all, a willingness to be vulnerable.  When you do your practice, try to go deeper than just the physical pose; have a willingness to let go of habitual patterns of thought and open up to the beautiful, authentic, imperfect being that is perfectly you.

Reiki Healing Circle

October 4th – 7 TO 830PM

Join us for a beautiful evening of healing and sharing energy. All are welcome whether you are new to Reiki, a Reiki practitioner, or just curious to know what it’s all about. Reiki is an ancient healing modality and is non-invasive. The healing energy is channeled through the hands of the practitioner to the receiver. Reiki calms the nervous system, releases muscle tension and emotional imbalances. Reiki enhances the body’s own capacity for healing love and light.

Contact me for location details if you have never been to my space.

Suggested donation $10 per person. If possible bring something to be donated to our local food pantry.  Please reserve your spot.

Hoping this email finds you well.  Being with my teacher, Rolf Gates, this weekend was both enlightening and challenging.  It is so important to step away from your everyday demands and immerse yourself in practice, whether it is for a weekend, a day or one class.  Yoga can help us find our center over and over again when our minds or bodies have strayed.  To be open and willing, available and  aware, steady and committed is to remain teachable and present to whatever arises in the moment.  Erhard Tolle said “Whenever we step into the present moment, we are able to taste the sacredness of our lives”.  This is yoga, this is union with what is truly important, your life, here now.

Holding the Balance-Ode to the Autumn Equinox

 Our lives hold grief and balm in equal measure, light, darkness are two ends of the same stick.  How do we hold all this life, all these dualities of sadness and joy, receiving and letting go, failures and successes, dreams and regrets, doing and not doing? The Tao Te Ching tells us that when we become empty we receive all that we have been grasping for.  This emptying and filling is why we are here.  To learn to let go with the grace of a tree in fall, to go within to shine the light where it has remained dark.  To share our burdens and our joys together in our sacred goddess sangha away from who we think we are, judgments and demands.  As we empty and prepare for what is to come,  planting seeds of intention; we find gratitude as we give rise to what is germinating deep inside as we honor the balance of light and dark.

“The habit is holding on, the practice is letting go.”
“When I begin a meditation the fullness of my experience, the fullness of my life, often rushes in and I have a moment of resistance. “How can I bare all of this life?” Then I remember that to be the space that can hold all of this joy, all of this sensation, all of this love, all of this sadness, all of this knowing, all of this not knowing, all of this life….. I just need to let go.”

Rolf Gates

With Autumn Equinox around the corner, it is the perfect time to practice letting go.  Let go and feel the freedom of honoring the present moment.  Without realizing it, we can walk through our days carrying the weight of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow.  “The habit is holding on, the practice is letting go”.  Practice right now with your next exhalation and let go of something you are resisting; some tension or some belief that is holding you back. and notice all the  spaciousness and lightness that letting go can offer.
