Sept 22, 2022 There were a group of Lords that decided to form a social club. At their first meeting they were all excited to be together and then one of them asked where the bartender was to give them a drink. There was no bartender, or dishwasher, or cook, or any non-lords at the club. The Lords realized they had to do something, so they decided to share responsibilities. Moving forward, they put different tasks into a hat and as they arrived at the club, they drew a job. Sometimes a Lord was cook, other times they were a servant. And, of course, while they were doing these tasks they never forgot who they truly were - which was a Lord.
In class today, we'll remember that even though we might have drawn the job of a teacher, or a CEO, an an author, or we are feeling one way or the other, inside, we are still lords. :-)
Sept 12, 2022 - Today we do a backbend class while we let the thoughts in our mind pass, like leaves floating down and away on a river.
On Jane and my motorcycle trip this summer, we had people tell us various roads we should and shouldn't take. In the end, our own experience was really the thing that mattered, not other people's input. That's true in yoga as well. Your direct experience is what matters most.
August 30, 2022 - After riding a motorcycle around the country for 97 days, I realize that I don't have to come back to what was, I can be something new. Today, we'll focus on letting go of the old and opening to being someone new.
