The universe has a plan

Happy and THANKFUL.... As YOGI'S ... 

we INTEND to  "PRACTICE"  gratitude  daily! 

Today, I must call attention to a dear student.... Her name is Allie, and multiple times a year, she is responsible for an ear to ear grin upon my face!  The universal force that draws people together is AMAZING, it is beautiful and then to feel that connection 9 years later.... POWERFUL! Today, I simply call attention to those forces in our lives, those people in our lives, that bring a smile, warm our hearts, remind us of the goodness on the planet!  Thank you Allie, and to all the beings on the planet that offer light in our lives!  

AHIMSA

Non-violence is: compassion and TRUE LOVE...

      You can embrace love, love deeply and be loved,... when our thoughts contain negative responses,... guilt, resentment, shame, disappointment,... we create violence. ( also non-forgiveness, ... pushing away love) .... expecting too much, acting out of fear,...TRUTH AND NON-VIOLENCE are congruent. face your darkness with COMPASSION....How does this apply in Yoga?...As Yogi's, we practice ahimsa ( non-harming)...We can do this in a multitude of ways,....on the mat and off....self love is the premise here....moving with intention, intentional respect. Awareness is a STRONG force....

This is "developed" in the practice...

I bring the word, ... the beautiful sanskrit word, AHIMSA into the moment,...as a gentle reminder....to practice compassion, non-harming ( for yourself and others),...practice love,... in all that you do. 

Have AWARENESS of what you do and how you do it,.. how it affects your own body and the world around you.

Gandhi's quotes. " The greatness of a nation and it's moral progress can be judged by the way it's animals are treated" ....and "Be the change you want to see in the world" For me, the amazing choice to be a plant based/VEGAN feels right.... We as people, make choices that shape our existence. THOUGHTS becoming WORDS,... words develop into ACTION! We speak our thoughts with what we DO AND WHO WE ARE........We ARE what we eat.
Peace and love...to ALL BEINGS,...gratitude to mother earth, father sun, sister moon, brother ocean, air, fire, space......

I am grateful... I am thankful...
