gratitude
“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity…. It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”
~Melodie Beattie

graduation
Today was the last day of my yoga training! Here we are with our 3 amazing teachers, Sigrid, Shari and Peter…
top row: Ali, Ashourina, Kathy, Lakshmi the Skeleton Lady, Nathan, Susan, Bow, Peter
bottom row: Sigrid, Michaela, Tyler, Nilza, Stacey, Shari, Marissa
It’s too much to put into words, but what I can say is that this 2 month exploration of yoga on and off the mat has been extremely rewarding. It was a truly wonderful experience and even though I’ve come to the end of training, I know that I’ve come to the beginning of real learning and growth!
