INSPIRED BY: The microcosmic relationship of human beings to all of Nature. Regardless if one looks at a community, an individual, an organ, or a cell; each smaller entity mirrors and contains the entirety of the whole.
FAVORITE POSE: Utthita Trikonasana (Extended Triangle Pose)— I am continually astounded by the opening and unwinding that happens for me in this pose through alignment, practice, and presence.
A RECURRING THOUGHT: ‘Wow, I am in such awe and feel deep gratitude that everything I had dreamed of and intended is manifesting and coming true. Is this all real? Yes, it really is….”
FAVORITE QUOTE: “You are an aperture through which the universe is looking at and exploring itself. Through our eyes, the universe is perceiving itself. Through our ears, the universe is listening to its harmonies. We are the witnesses through which the universe becomes conscious of its glory, of its magnificence.” ~Alan Watts
A NON-NEGOTIABLE: Valuing and fully participating in each moment with my friends and loved ones by putting the cell phone down.
MOUNTAINS OR BEACH: Morning hike with an afternoon swim, because in Sandpoint I don’t have to choose 🙂
