~ of earth and fire
Hello dear friends~
This is a shot i took a couple weeks ago while watching the sun drop down over the flatirons. This patch of grass was well nested by the likes of these bones during the pandemic, and became one thing I’m super grateful for- stillness and buns on earth. After years of urban living, a return to ground has been a sweet and necessary coming home.
A note about Sculpture Yoga tonight:
Due to the raging fires in Colorado, Sculpture Garden Yoga at 6.15 MT will be conducted with zoom option only. (Proceeded by Story hour @ 5). Details and link to tune in are here.
Classes this week:
Same as last few… 2 creative vinyasa, 1 meditation, one restorative/yin, & one storyhour.
Calendar, link, and details here.
I would love to see you!
Coaching- Life Design:
I have some additional slots available for this work and have to say it has been one of the sweetest ways to really connect and catapult what’s seen/felt/asked of each moment by each of us in this dance called life. Pandemic pricing of the first session still applies ($50-125) and sometimes just the one can be a sweet launching/landing pad for your process.
Also if you have a teenager and want to gift this away- i’ve had some incredible connections here and this age group is one that sometimes needs some support outside of the usual unit. Especially in times such as these.
It would be an honor to co-create with you.
Slot times and descriptions here.
Poem for u:
This one is a sweet cluster of words I return to time and again and one we enjoyed in class a couple weeks ago…
I believe in all that has never yet been spoken. I want to free what waits within me so that what no one has dared to wish for
may for once spring clear
without my contriving.
If this is arrogant, God, forgive me,
but this is what I need to say.
May what I do flow from me like a river,
no forcing and no holding back,
the way it is with children.
Then in these swelling and ebbing currents,
these deepening tides moving out, returning,
I will sing you as no one ever has,
streaming through widening channels into the open sea.
~Rilke
In addition to all the oo-so-many uncomfortable aspects of fire, there is also the metabolism, the crackling purge, and roots-down renewal. In your life’s discomforts, I wish you a simultaneous knowing of relentless renewal, which, it would seem, is the nature of things..
In deep care and respect,
Julia
