Quote I’m thinking about:
“In many shamanic societies, if you came to a shaman or medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited or depress, they would ask you one of four questions:
When did you stop dancing?
When did you stop singing?
When did you stop being enchanted by stories?
When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence?”
– Ageles Arrien, from the forward to “Maps to Ecstasy”.
Book I’m Reading now:
the Bhagavad Gita – Introduced and translate by Eknath Easwaran
As I prepare for our upcoming 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training, from February 17 – March17, 2019, I am brushing up on the classics: The Bhagavad Gita, “Song of the Lord,” is probably the best known of all the Indian scriptures, and Easwaran’s clear, accessible translation is the best-selling edition. The Gita’s timeless wisdom focuses on the subject of the war within, the struggle for self-mastery that every human being must face. The Gita offers us sublime instruction on living and dying, loving and working, and the nature of the soul.
Sacred Song I’m LOVING to dance to:
