taking time away

One of the wonderful things about yoga is the quiet relaxation time at the end of class. This time is considered to be the most powerful part of class, giving us some much needed time to simply BE.

This past week, I was traveling in Alaska, and the naturalist aboard our ship read the following passage from Shakespeare:

"And this, our life, exempt from public haunt,
finds tongues in trees,
books in the running brook,
sermons in stones,
and good in everything."

May you each have some time today to "escape" your public haunt....to find some time for stillness and an opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the earth.
