I plunge my spoon into the glistening vanilla chocolate swirl, being careful to catch a drop of whipped cream as I lift it up to my lips.
Oh, the bliss! My taste buds dance throughout my mouth. I go in for another, then another. Suddenly its gone. My 18 euro elegant ice cream sundae disappeared in minutes. I want more… but do I need more? With the time change last week, the nights have grown longer and the moon energy has risen stronger. How does this change affect you? My students were asking me about my Sunset Yoga on the Bay class. I’ve spent the last eight months building this lovely community and outdoor class from 6-7pm on Thursdays. They were wondering if I was going to cancel the class when it got dark. The question sparked a tinge of anxiety within me. Many of my students can’t come any earlier because of their work schedule and the commute. I certainly didn’t want to lose this group and this experience, but I knew that as a yogi, I needed to be open to change and the flow of time. Please click on the button below to finish reading the article... (I was featured as a guest blogger on BeYogi.com). After all of this reflection, I decided to keep the time of my weekly yoga class the same, but change the style of the class to a Moonlight Meditative Flow, adding some flickering orange-colored solar-charged tiki torches and tealights for extra effect. The reflections of the water of the bay remind us to focus on our cooling flowing breaths. The orange color of the second chakra is the color of new beginnings and balance!

Have you fashioned a monster? From snake-like, dragon-like, bird-like, or octopus-like, humankind has been creating monsters across cultures and time. Ironically, a fear of certain creatures and the unknown is shared on all continents. On the other hand, one of the important characteristics of historical heroes across cultures is being fearless in the face of big and often lethal enemies. This story and message has been told time after time throughout the human experience. |
