Relax, it's Sun Salutations week!

We are having quite a wonderful year!  This year is about strength building!  We have been doing two weeks of new poses then  one week of poses we know so well.

Kinda like breathing...huh?  In and out, move then rest.  

Strength building in yoga is not just about getting buff, it's about building from the inside out .  Strength builds the soul, then the body follows.   When the soul feels strong, the body will give what it wants to represent that strength. My strength shows up differently than it did when I first started yoga, before 15 years passed, before the car accident.   Yet, I am strong and continually getting stronger every day.  My strength is exactly what my age, body and heart want it to be. 

This past weekend, I showed the class how truly close they are to doing splits. Every one did the split that their body said yes to. It was totally beautiful! All of the splits looked different and each one was a celebration of the body and heart.  They were so perfect!

So , this week, Here comes the Sun!
