yoga

My leg is trembling in the the 3rd warrior pose of the sequence. My left knee is bent at 90 degrees, my right leg is out straight behind me, my pelvis is close to the floor, both my arms are my by ears, stretched out out out

Caru paces around the room, counting.

5......4......3......2.................................


SmiiiiiLE!

Caru's playful voice echoes in the lotus room.

I nearly collapse!
But not from trembly leg

from laughing too much....

Yoga is meant to be done joYfully! He says beaming at everyone.


I dont think i could write enough or even find the right particular words to describe my yoga teacher... he embodies so much beyond what is and his classes are so simple, routine and oh, so, so profound.

I leave everytime with my head above the stratosphere walking on light

the wider and the deeper ... yes! what an amazing gift he is. LOVE yoga w caru and those warriors like woah. trying to master chaneling breath up and down the spine in these moments. how cool is breath! the other day i was extending my exhalations by swallowing and found a spot where i actually experienced a miniscule amount of that half day breath retention uber point of extreme yogic calm. it was really peaceful and quiet x
