three frinds

We have three friends: gravity, breath, and wave (connected with the supple movement of extension along the spine).  Theses three companions (fused in one) should be constantly with us.

Health Advice for 2012- Katy Bowman

What (health) advice would you like to give yourself for 2012?

Dear Katy,

You're taking on too many projects.  Or, you need to not be overwhelmed by them.  Do what you can do.  Look at what is truly important to you and let the others go.  Make sure that ANY project you take on supports your greater interest in wellbeing.  If a project causes you stress, it's working against your internal desire to be stress-free.  Let it go.

Oh, and take a nap at least once a week.  The only one keeping you from doing that is you.  I promise, nothing great is going on during that one hour anyways.

Love,

Me

Rumi quotes

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there.

Let the beauty of what you love be what you do. There are thousands of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.

Keep looking at the wounded place-- that's where the light gets in.

This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
