yoga

~day 3 of the yoga workshop with sharatt, straight from mysore, india. he is pattabhi jois' grandson and assistant. pattabhi jois is the guru of ashtanga yoga. (this is the website: http://www.ayri.org/index.html)

so truly amazing!! i am in such awe of how powerful YOGA is...so truly healing, so nurturing, so nourishing, and so grounding.

i watch my mind though it all. there are times when i am so focused, in the zone with my breath...breathing in "LOVE" and breathing out "GRATITUDE". and then there are times when i am ahead of myself-planning on how i can give to people. it's so very interesting to watch the mind...we are slaves to our mnds. if we are just able to quiet it, to make it still-the TRUTH/SATYA shall shine through.

i have recently started saying a prayer during my blessing for my meals. "may every breath we take IN be full of LOVE and every breath we give OUT be full of GRATITUDE & above all else, MAY PEACE PREVAIL ON EARTH.

namaste,

Hey you 2!!!

Remember me :P ? Its been awhile and I was thinking about you both. Looks like you 2 are living it up! Peter and I are doing well. We celebrated my 30th and our 3rd wedding anniversary on an Alaskan cruise this past June. Absolutely gorgeous! I'm going to a neuroscience conference in D.C. this November and the Dalai Lama is the featured speaker (how cool is that?). I'm loving hip hop class and I've also started pilates. Pilates is a bit of a challenge; always making sure I'm in the right posture and isolating certain muscles. Its good to go to these classes and "get out of my head" every now and then :)

Best to you both...Peter and I will be in Florida for Christmas, any chance we'll bump into you?

Love--Beth
