This is interesting,  I don't feel much directly in my spine as well just try to form a twist of my body which will do so.

Devi Daly Day 6 and still searching.  She walked the beach to town, a 7 mile trek, but is now probably moving at dawn and dusk, hopefully towards her old home there.  I walked the beach myself and found no alarming issues.  FB and Next-door, shelters and vets are all on alert.  I've posted flyers all around the area most likely she'd travel.  I passed out flyers to residents in the immediate location of her old home.  Not giving up hope, but each day wretches the heart a little more.  Yin has been a good mind pause and body aid with all the stress and increased exercise.

Yin for the win!

I'm visiting some sorrow today, that and some soreness from transversing down and up a dangerous ravine in search of a lost pup.  I spied her once, but she is still on the run. I took Amanda 's post as a cue to revisit this one.  It helped.  Sutra 70 ends: Wound becomes portal. Brokenness surrenders to Crystalline brilliance of Being.

"Movement meditation". Exactly!!!!

I've worked with a shoulder injury for 9 years now.  Yin is wonderful in that it makes us so mindful of the little moves that need our care and attention.  It turns out there is a lot of great scenery on the road to recovery.

Lovely basic set of moves perfect to get my going this morning.  Back feels great now, ready for the day.

All I kept thinking about was how our practice of Yin allows us time to be in the moment.  Even the challenging moments at times.  I found the instruction to roll onto my hip during the quad stretch extremely helpful.  This relieved what could have been knee strain for me.  Time to clear the mind, that is the gift you keep giving Devi, along with a body the feels good.

For some reason I hear an announcement on the plane telling the passengers "She is now in Sleeping Swan.  The aisle should be clear in the next 3 minutes"

Super yummy!  Love lingering in the poses, love lingering in between.  So many good reasons provided just to feel good.
