In the practice of Ashtanga yoga, concentration on the subtle perceptions of the body leads to stability and tranquility. We get better over time at managing the teeny tiny shifts that keep us calm and collected... Which doesn't mean things dont go off balance. They do-- we just dont panic, stay cool, and do our best to get back to the sweet spot. A really useful skill.

I'm somewhat responsible for his trust issues. Watch for falling birds -- especially Himalayan geese. Sorry, Charlie!
The rug burn on my chin is from yoga, thank you very much.
Practiced under a tree. The rain came and went.
Maybe the cicada is my spirit animal? Some of y'all are monarchs, others painted ladies-- that's well and good.
"They have an exceptionally loud song. Most cicadas are cryptic, singing at night to avoid predators. The periodic cicadas spend most of their lives as underground nymphs, emerging only after 13 or 17 years, which may reduce losses by starving their predators and eventually emerging in huge numbers which overwhelm and satiate any remaining predators.
Cicadas have been featured in literature since the time of Homer's Iliad, and as motifs in art from the Chinese Shang dynasty. They have been used in myths and folklore to represent carefree living and immortality."

Being able to begin a sentence with "My teacher says..." is one of the greatest privledges I have in this life. So much of what follows is from Pattabhi Jois-- I'm so grateful for his lifelong dedication to teaching, teaching my teachers. 1915- May 18, 2009.

I bought myself a jumpsuit and a Nintendo switch for my birthday. Basically, a romper and a video game... I'm, like, 8.

Class picture day At DC Ashtanga was a resounding success!! Thank you Jonny Asfour for the work and Maggie Lively for the encouragement!
Kindness, love, and bliss are infinite metrics that are tells of practice. You have to be willing to be hurt, to feel your pain, to apologize, to forgive and to get woke. Its not easy, but its worth it. Practice and all is coming.
I had turned 18 the month before. bb-mjh
I love my mommy.
I love my mommy.
This hits home.
A gentle reminder for me, today.
I get an awful lot of ads for this hot yoga dudes strength series. Its cause I linger at the salaciousnesa of it all, isn't it?
Such a wonderful way to spend a Saturday-- mysore style ashtanga yoga with a rich and diverse community of kindhearted practitioners! @livelyogini and @mhendric1 at @ashtanganation do such a wonderful job of teaching and holding space. I encourage all of my @dcashtanga brethren who are looking to practice in community on Saturdays to check them out, 8:30-11.
April showers being may flowers. Mayflowers bring smallpox. What do May showers bring??

So, wikipedia says that bull sharks are responsible for most near-shore attacks in rivers. Charlie, the paddleboard, and I are all nervous. Which sharks like to be pet-- I am trying to shake these shark bigotries, I swear!
