Assume Form

February 10th, 2020

How do you assume form, let your guard down, and let others know you in all of your joy and sorrow? Its not easy. As the musician James Blake sings, it requires you to be out of your head and in your body. Why? Because your head is where your fears, predictions of disaster, and self-doubt (or worse, self-hate) live. If you want to be touchable and reachable, you need to find ways to work with your fears, to honor them, but not let them be in charge. Read the rest of this entry

January 3rd, 2019

I was trying to transition from a tripod headstand into crow pose. After I brought my knees to my triceps, I just couldn’t lift my head off of the floor. Or if I did, I rocked backwards onto my feet. The woman next to me, an friendly, encouraging face from class, was making the transition perfectly. I paused and asked her for advice. She offered some classic yogic advice:Root down to rise up.

May 28th, 2018

However, immediately upon hearing her, I took her direction and enteredback into the pose, and went deeper into it then I ever have.

Being Cool Like Eartha Kitt

September 18th, 2017

Ok everyone. Lets try mayurasana. Youre going to want to immediately lengthen your legs out straight. Most of you, though, will fall out of the pose if you do that. But if you exercise some humility and slowly move from having your legs pulled in to full peacock, you will be more successful. Just remember slowly can mean years.
