Wednesday, Dec 7, 2022 - How great it is that we have this little mat that we can take places, but the experience of being on the mat always has the same intention - to find our Self.

Tuesday, Dec 6, 2022 - Today we consider the idea that the current moment is actually the only moment, and we still the mind to find it.

Monday, Dec 5, 2022 - Today we will work on finding physical grounding with our physical practice, as well as energy balance with some pranayama.

Friday, Dec 2, 2022 - Today we get to tell ourselves nice things...and because no one is listening, you can say anything.

Monday, Nov 28, 2022 - Today we practice letting go.

Friday, Nov 18, 2022 - In the Bhagavad Gita this is a stanza about the idea that both action and inaction are actions. I really love that. For today, we'll keep moving, getting into the feeling of action.

Thursday, Nov 17, 2022 - Sometimes it can be hard to be your self and do what you really need to do. In today's class you are invited to make it feel good for you...really, that is what the physical yoga practice is all about.

Monday, Nov 14, 2022 - Yesterday I was reminded of the first time I read about the concept of letting thoughts pass like clouds...it was 40 years ago. Wow. Enjoy the class. :-)

Wednesday, Nov 9, 2022 - Sometimes we create future pain in our minds, bodies and hearts. That isn't necessary. Let's avoid that today.

Tuesday, Nov 8th - Today we consider one of the sutras from the Bhakti tradition, that in-part says, "practice love all of the time with all of the heart." Isn't that nice. :-)

Monday, Nov. 7, 2022 - There is a great quote from Rumi: "Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."

Thursday, Nov 3, 2022 - Today we tune in to the information that the body is sharing with us.

Monday, Nov 1, 2022 - The thing about yoga is it's a reminder that there is always an "in here" we can escape to. Let's do that today. :-)

Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2022 - In the writings of the Upanishads it says that we are "well made" and our essence is "joy." That's nice to think about, isn't it. We'll consider and experience that today in class.

Monday, Oct 31, 2022 - This morning I was thinking about my Dad and his willingness to do different things than the norm, and live a life looking at the possible. We'll think about that today.

Tuesday, Oct. 18, 2022 - The practice of karma yoga is to take action that is "good" action, without regard for the fruits of the action. Today we think about that and work on it as a yoga practice.

Monday, Oct. 17, 2022 - Over the last 3 days I've been teaching the UVM Teaching Training. After doing something like that, it's great to get back to being grounded, and the breath really helps with that. We'll enjoy the breath today. :-)

Wednesday, Oct. 12, 2022 - Today we find the space between the inhale and the exhale, and the exhale and the inhale.

Tuesday, Oct. 11, 2022 - One of my favorite teachings from sacred texts is this one, "Teachings on Bhakti (love) should be reflected on, practices that awaken it should be undertaken." We will do practices that awaken it today. :-)

Monday, Oct. 10, 2022 - Today the Dalai Lama reminded me that people are kind to you, you appreciate it. So, being kind to others will also be appreciated. :-)
