A dear friend asked if I can share my Yoga practice:
So in light of the many the uncertainties in the world...
I light my creation
Bloom
Lola
and Vintage
Candles.
I close my eyes and give thanks:
Gratitude to my mind, body, family and friends.
Near and Far.
Past, Present and Future.
Gratitude to my ancestors and guides who have gone and passed.
Gratitude to nature, yoga and art creations!
I move to...
Child's Pose...for 5 minutes I am Here.
In Table Top I move
my back
that is holding me.
Slowly
I let her go to
Cat and Cow poses
11 times
I lift my gaze and round my spine
Then Downward Facing Dog for a minute.
I stare directly at my toes
wide open spaces in between
and legs so strong and grounded.
I step forward to the top
of this Yoga mat.
In Forward Fold I stayed.
On the Way to Half Way lift,
I check in
and slowly fold.
I Circle the Arms up and bring the Palms together
to the heart.
I stand tall
in Mountain Pose
and rest my right hand on the heart
and left hand on the belly...
THANK YOU
For allowing me to feel and hear You.
I Circle the Arms Up
and dive forward.
I Flow and Salute the Sun.
