last week as i was in the finishing poses of a power yoga session i had cleared my mind and was simply being. with each breath in and out i felt more and more relaxed whilst feeling so alive it was almost like my whole body was humming. it was in the midst of this that one thought scrolled across my mind: "i only have 8 full weeks until squam. there are 8 other girls in my cabin. i should do a giveaway a week showcasing my cabin mates: the sommers 81 girls."

bridging the gap

i've been contemplating as of late how easy it is to focus on one area of life and feel like we've got it covered, only to realize we've been neglecting something equally as important.
as with many poses in yoga, bridge displays this point.
as you lift your hips and draw your shoulder blades together your knees automatically fall out.
and so you push your knees back together,
breathing so fully,
pushing your hands against eachother.
only to realize that your hips have fallen again.
and so it is only with constant correction that we begin to fully embrace the bridge.
