between sets
There has to be a way to invite joy into the mundane. To encourage patience and persistence.
If not, life would be one misery to the next, with only ever fleeting moments of bliss in between. It simply cannot be that.
If there wasn't a way to mine ecstasy from the ordinary, what a cruel joke this human experience would be.
Anyone who is paying attention can see that the universe has a sense of humor-- and the joke might be dark, but it's not cruel.
Get out there and create. No one is going to have fun for you.

Sebastian in the snow.
Sebastian Cole Hall passed away today. He lived 15 amazing years with me, my mom, and my dad. He knew his toys by name, was fearless, and gentle. He helped make me the person I am today, and taught me about unconditional love. He was a very good boy.
Ya ever have someone at a house party that has absolutely no chill? And it kinda fucks up the vibe? (if you haven’t, it might be you gurrrl). 🏡
I reckon we can all recognize “chill” — and ya either got it or ya don’t. Yoga helps you get it. With consistent practice, you develop a capacity to examine and adjust in a way that keeps you from freaking the fuck out when things get a little dodgey. It keeps you chill when maybe conditions aren’t optimal. 💅🏼 It’s nice when yoga practice is really useful. Be a better party guest. Practice. 🥳 “The highest Sadhana (spiritual practice) is to bear insult and bear injury. “ — Swami Sivananda
