Turtle Yoga

Join me for Trataka Meditation on July 15th at All Yall Yoga!
https://allyallnola.com/meditation
I am there Wednesday at 6pm sharing a different meditation style/technique each week.
July 22nd we will practice Japa Mala with beads. Don't worry, I will provide beads.
During the heat of summer give yourself some quiet time on the mat.
See you on Magazine Street!

The new website is not without errors. I just corrected a few.
A photo of the new space is below. To clarify a few things: No classes at 400 Belleville. The original studio sold in January. Appointments are held either at my home or at a prearranged place. I will travel for private yoga and Shamanic sessions. Reiki, Past Life Regression and BQH are offered in person and online.
All sessions are by appointment and must be made in advance. The BQH session requires a phone call for preparation instructions.
I hope to offer Sound Baths in the fall and some special meditation classes in a group setting. I am at All Yall Yoga tomorrow night. 😉 😉

Blessed Summer Solstice!
Enjoy the sun on your skin today, dance tonight and rest tomorrow.

I have a "mini" altar to meditate at during my travels. It helps me stay close to Spirit and is a focus for meditation. I like to add items from the place I'm visiting. The Aragonite on the right I purchased at Taos Gem and Minerals. The sage on the left was tied by a man from Taos Pueblo. He places tied sage near the entrance for people who pass by. It is free, reminding us to share what we have with others and of the generosity of First Nations.

I had a challenging day today. I've planned my trip to Taos for six months and today I went to the airport to begin my journey.
I won't tell every detail, but my flight out of NOLA was 5 hours late. They rebooked my connection from DFW to Taos and then rebooked it again. And couldn't rebook a third time because no more flights.
But, the attendant in my section was pleasant. The man in the seat beside me was pleasant as he and I discussed possible options for me.
Before yoga, I would have ran for the bar and it probably would have been tequila shots. Today I had some nachos and talked with a fellow passenger.
Then, we arrived at DFW and I found I am booked on an 8:30am flight tomorrow to Taos. Where's my luggage? Not on the carousel. Track my bags says its off the plane. I go to to luggage counter and find it's being held for my connection in the morning.
But, the luggage counter man was nice and he gave me a cute little emergency bag with (thank you Shiva) a brush. It's kind of a weird little brush, but I can brush my hair!
Before yoga, I probably would have yelled at somebody or I would be unhappy and think about all the things that went wrong.
But, I'm okay. Tired, but okay. And I can sleep because anger isn't living in me.
Yoga has done this for me.
Take your yoga with you when you step off the mat.
Namaste. 🙏

The beauty of the world is all around us. Look at the patterns in leaves, take off your shoes and feel the earth beneath your feet. Let the sun warm your skin. Breathe deeply. Feel your root chakra grounding you. It's a beautiful day! 😍
