walking on the earth

I have spent this past year cultivating my yoga practise, or, more specifically, my teaching practise...

The stars aligned to liberate me from my job after I completed my Moksha yoga training, which meant I had plenty of time, and a refreshing amount of energy, to dedicate to my studios and students.

Walking into the studio as a teacher for the first time, and knowing that I was finally walking the path I am meant to be on, left me in awe of myself. How did I finally manage to pull this all together?! I felt as though a journey that I began when I was 16 had finally come to an end. I was no longer trying to get anywhere. I had arrived.

Of course, it was just the first step on a whole new journey...

Arriving here, now, is pretty hard. My life is a story that I've made up in my mind. Every morning I get out of bed a new person, but I convince myself that I am still who I was last week, or last year, or last decade.

As I explore the teaching of embracing the present, I have hit a lot of stumbling blocks.

My body is one of them.
My mind is another.

As I strive to understand my self, I embrace the idea of living simply in a very different way.
So now I move forward, leaving my soapy posts in the ethereal dust.

My intention for this blog is to share what I see, hear and feel as I wander the path of goddess tradition, yoga and opening my heart to the abundance of the universe.
