In this week leading up to Easter, I've been thinking about springtime and all the new life and changes that take place in our natural world. Now that I live in Florida, spring looks and feels a lot different than it did in the Midwest, but we do have trees that go dormant that are now green again. As you can see by the photo, the bird of paradise are blooming. 

Springtime means longer days and more sunshine. For many, it's also a time to start to consider new goals or planning for summer vacations or travel. As you move through spring, what are you planning or hoping for? If you have travel plans in mind, remember that your Yoga Moodra classes can go along too! You can continue your yoga practice from anyplace that provides a WIFI signal. 

 In the crazy and unpredictable times we live in, having a yoga practice that helps us manage stress and change is more important than ever before. Getting on my mat has always helped to calm me and get me connected with the present moment. Yoga provides time for me to consider what deserves my time and energy, and what I can release. 

Amidst the problems and disagreements of the day, I appreciate time on the mat and remembering that we are all a part of one human family. Yoga means 'to yoke' or bring together. May your yoga practice help you feel whole. May your practice help you connect and bring together all aspects of yourself, and remind you of your connection to others. You belong here and we belong to one another.
