The doctors say its GABA.
The yogis say its PRANA.
I say its what happens when we pay very close attention and hear something beautiful.

Practice yoga, and you can be as smiley as this guy!

Not forgetting June

June received no yogic posts from me.

But she was a beauteous month!
There were waves crashing on the Oregon Coast
Gardens chock full of flowers
Mom-cooked breakfasts
Dogs leaping and cuddling, horses running and nuzzling, cats watching and being watched, and a parrot drinking coffee.
People walking and talking, and walking, and talking
A good friend married, so gorgeous and happy

Everything and everyone in that lovely June, was just what they were to the bone (except for the parrot, and that is just one huge mystery).

Enormous Yoga Mat?

I was thinking about how we are so connected to the boundaries of the yoga mat.
And that in a practice where we (hopefully) are feeling connected to everyone and everything, we are actually in our own little world (mat) of experience.

So I asked, via the LRY facebook page how it would feel to practice on one huge mat, along with everyone else in the class.

Natasha wrote, "I think it is more a state of mind to be everywhere while standing in that defined space...at least that is how I like to practice."

I still think that in this current age of yoga 2010, a matless class might really open our minds (and hearts!), but Natasha's words help my mat-acceptance.
