Coincidence, I think not..


So I must admit that I love sharing yoga...
Was at a NIRSA Conference ALL DAY, but still went in to teach class.
Got some good info during one of the session about adherence to an exercise program,
so I put it into action :-)

The theme lately has been connecting; re-membering our True & unlimited nature.
The tip was to connect with the students and work towards getting all of there names, which isn't easy in my arrangement and past rebelliousness of expecting others to know my name.
There has been a new level of Peace lately, a maturing to the PAth I am on...
I felt it more so today as I mingled with so many today and before class.

Been playing the CD Joe burnt for us: called BREAD,
A more "traditional soundtrack" then what I've been spinnin' this semester :-P
Tried to flow off of what we had done the previous week, even read over my notecard... haha
Surya Namaskar A has been the backbone of the "asana core-e-aw-gra-fee-king" I've been experimenting with.

The mental note was about Conscious: the sub-, the -ness, and the Ego.
Cueing about the Sparkly Ego... honest Awareness, humble acceptance and patient determination.
Sometimes the visual is that lone tree... separated from the forest, but still part of the Whole.
Like me today, a lone wolf roaming around for Truth, gems for my Path... but somehow separated.

Today's session Also had a reminder about Being aware of that part that critiques, judges and distracts us from our moments,
Cultivating an awareness of when the Heart speaks. And when that OTHER part contradicts "reality."

During class... I love when Song #5 comes on!
Reminds me of SlumDog Millionaire...
Which lead me to remind everyone that there are no coincidences... each moment building upon the last and preparing us for the next moment (hopefully).
Sometimes the question comes before the answer, but I Know The One usually prepares us first...
so we are ready for our Tests.

Which leads me to share this card I found for a friend...

There is only one minute in which you are alive,
this minute, here and now.
The only way to live is by accepting each minute as an unrepeatable miracle.
Which is exactly what it is - a miracle and unrepeatable.
