Summer is already ebbing….It has been a warm and wonderfully outgoing time, sharing with family and friends. I trust you have been enjoying this expansive, outgoing time. The warmth supports our practice.
We are living in very alarming times, and I stand in solidarity with the people of the world, as terrorists do their best to undermine our lives, literally. The reality of Donald Trump as president is a nightmare. I am heartened by the news media’s scrutiny of everything he and his cronies attempt to do to enrich themselves at the expense of everyone else. More than ever, this demands us to use all of the practices we have cultivated to meet these challenges in our world.
As yoga and our other practices lead us to recognize the love that we are and to dwell in this truth, I am posting a few statements on LOVE. I have a button that states “It’s all about love”.
"A loving heart is the beginning of all knowledge."
~ Thomas Carlyle
"A loving heart is the truest wisdom."
~ Charles Dickens
"Love is the joy of the good, the wonder of the wise, the amazement of the Gods."
~ Plato"You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.”
Henry Drummond
My European travels this Spring/Summer were joyful sharings with old and new students and friends. The weather was especially fine, and I swam in the English Channel, surprised to find it possible and refreshing. The Northern California Pacific Ocean is much less hospitable!
I returned to Koln, Luxembourg for the 7th year, Prague, Scotland and Ireland. And for the first time I taught in Dorset, England.
At present, I am scheduling my 2018 trip to Europe. I am going to be teaching in Italy, Vienna and Cornwall for the first time.
I am returning to Germany with my partner in October and will be teaching a day long work shop in Cornwall. I will also have a day long workshop in Koln and a weekend workshop for yoga teachers in Prague.
Thank you for giving me the blessed opportunity to commune and share our hearts.
In love and gratitude, Kathy
