I usually close a yoga class with everyone sitting in a comfortable seat. In this final moment, I often encourage students (and myself) to absorb all of the energy and efforts of that practice. Take in whatever information has bubbled to the surface. .
That’s how I’m feeling about this year. Each one goes by so fast, but still, we grow, we learn, we shift. Let’s soak it all up now, in these final few moments. The efforts, the energy, the joy, the sadness, the knowledge, awareness, enlightenment, whatever has come up. Take it in ✨

A year and a half ago when I was asked what Utopia means to me, I said that I don’t think Utopia exists and that striving for so much perfection stresses me out. Aspects of this still ring true. However, over this past year I’ve realized Utopia isn’t the end game. Perfection doesn’t exist, but that’s the beauty. We keep shifting and playing and growing. Why not try to bring more happiness and awareness into our world? .

“Do you want to meet the love of your life? Look in the mirror.” .

@calm thank you for this lovely reminder 💕 Last New Years, I went on a retreat and during a very powerful partner meditation I started saying the words “I am love” to myself. It’s simple and maybe silly, but these words felt like a light bulb to me. I didn’t have to look outside for love anymore. Not in things or people or travel or work. Love comes from within myself and so that’s where my attention needs to be.
Those words have been a daily mantra for me this year. I look at them and say them every single day. I’ve found that the work you do inside is so powerfully reflected in your external world❤️
