Happy International Yoga Day!

Happy International Yoga Day!

The past few years I've had a great time doing a big outdoor yoga practice with my mom and my studio and many others, and it always filled me with so much joy. This year I oddly haven't been able to find any Yoga Day festivities in Portland.

Then I remembered that yoga is not asana. Yoga is more than just the physical postures we put ourselves in. So I invite you to join me in celebrating Yoga Day all day by breathing deeply and mindfully; practicing ahimsa, non-harming, toward yourself and others; and taking a moment today to look inward and see the Divine in you and in all things. Be grateful, be joyous. In this moment we are alive, we are connected, we each have a vessel of breath and consciousness that allows us to experience all the wonders of this life.

Namaste.
