come flow with me...

for the past 5 weekends, i've been in a yoga teacher training program at om factory here in new york city.  starting out i wasn't sure if i necessarily wanted to teach, i was more so interested in deepening my own practice.  since embarking upon the journey, i can't quite fully explain how amazing it's been thus far but i'll try.  i feel my hips starting to open up more along with my heart...which means i'm more connected with what's going on in my body.  i'm more honest with myself about my goals, dreams, relationships with people, and even more so...my relationship with myself.  some days are bright, some days are not so bright.  i can say for sure that i'm becoming more of me, grounding more into my being and for that i am very grateful.  that's what i think the main gift of yoga is.  it's a great companion on this unknown journey called life, a trusty friend who helps you navigate the way a little easier.  i'd like to share this gift with you.  come check out my class.  i'll be there every wednesday in march from 4-5pm.

one of my favorite quotes this week:

between stimulus and response, there is a space. in that space is our power to choose our response. in our response lies our growth and our freedom.
