YOGA MUSINGS

Reflections on Inner Landscapes...

Today was another Maui postcard day…30 students spread their towels on the lush plush green lawn. The extremely low tide due to full moon exposed the lava and fishponds close to shore. The air was calm, quiet and gentle matching out bodymindspirits. Inhaling our surroundings, our eyes closed, we gently breathed into our own inner landscape filled with mountains, oceans, sky, sun, the beauty of nature again matching our surroundings. Breathing and stretching from within, we begin to sense an unlimited expansiveness. Eyes closed takes away distractions and physical markers that we think we need our body to reach. Instead, seeing within allows the body to seek and find its own natural level of a comfortable stretch effortlessly.

Enjoy the journey inside and out…..

  1. A Maui postcard day, is there any other kind? There is something unbelievably beautiful about recognizing ones inner landscape, the expansiveness that we can find inside ourselves, I found free yoga in a park here in Boulder, but it's just not the same without you and Kimo, you both are gifts to this world.

    Shaloha!
