Posing Peace

81 Summit Yoga, Scottsdale, AZ, 7-1-10

Complimenting the yoga instructor on the way out of my first trial class, she leaned in close and whispered, "You are very strong". (This is what I heard; You are a big girl in a tiny girl world and you need to lose weight). :~0

Really...If you want to sweat off your back end and feel muscles you thought had died years ago, I highly recommend a Bikram Yoga class! This particular one included current music choices and a quote for the day, I was instantly a fan! Here is what the teacher spoke as we lay in a "named" (I can't remember) position which is basically on your back looking dead-like:

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity...It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision of tomorrow. ~Melody Beattie

Thank you friends for being you and being there. Love you all.
