I turn my head a moment

A second glance to take

Upon a life provided

The choices I did make

The pain and all struggles

The lessons in their wake

The milestones of my wisdom

The collection of mistakes

We each have those life-changers

That somehow stop our world

And in our misdirections

They help to find its pearls

Of all the endless searching

They’ve showed us who we are

The secrets now so simple

Found we alone did guard

What a beautiful way to start the day.  Long, luscious, meditative poses found in each variation needed in the moment.  My mind attempting to fill with thoughts kept at bay, with your little nuggets of insight woven through the music.

I rare, lazy morning where I slept in, okay till 7:30, but still...  This was the perfect wake up, letting the breath and the stretches move blood and energy to my body.  Today I noticed my happy baby was better.   I think using the breath as instructed recently is helping me relax and deepen in each pose.

I was listening to an overview of the history, theory and practice of Tantra.  I was sitting cross legged and was performing various Yin moves for neck, shoulders and breath.  When the chapter ended a total body energetic rush moved up my torso.  That is when the warmth surrounded my spine.  It then encompassed my shoulder, neck and upper back.  There was an ease in my scapula.  It was as thought it was targeting my old injury for healing.

Perfect timing!  I needed to relax.  Your instruction on upright swan was just what I needed to make adjustments to the pose.  As the mind slows down and focuses on the body and breath, the busy thoughts subside.
