being a yoga teacher and student, everything to me translates into yoga.\u00a0 Either what to teach, a theme, or the discovery of a whole new way to say something.\u00a0 I can be inspired by anything. \u00a0 it could be how my dog lets out a big exhale and then relaxes into the couch or a walk on the beach listening to waves and hearing the ocean breathe. <\/span><\/p>\n

Or, I can trick myself sometimes and pretend cleaning my house is a yoga practice.\u00a0 I\u2019ll just clean the kitchen till it sparkles, and then go to bed.\u00a0 Savasana. <\/span><\/p>\n

So while I go from my yoga mat to my computer and back into the kitchen and back to my yoga mat I have decided to do two things.\u00a0 Do the shoulder stand that I set up for myself one hour ago and then I will do the kitchenasana. <\/span><\/p>\n

The problem that I am having is while my mat is waiting the computer grabbed me to explore the writings of another well respected senior yoga teacher I knew in Australia.\u00a0 Her writings have made me face an unfamiliar reality that we all have to grow up and face the imperfections of our bodies evolution.\u00a0 Another practice of yoga that develops flexibility and strength of character. <\/span><\/p>\n

So I will be boomeranging back to my mat now to complete my fragmented practice for tonight and then attack my kitchen and make it shiny bright.\u00a0 That will be an easy fix.\u00a0 Like the pose, I will congratulate myself when I am done.\u00a0 But, this maturing and accepting something that I may not be able to change just makes my feathers ruffle<\/span><\/p>\n

This is the intrigue of yoga.\u00a0 On all levels all is yoga to me and the teaching and the practice never ends.\u00a0 I am always given one more pose to practice without an argument\u2026sooner or later.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
