Choosing LOVE
Sun hands
I am making it a personal part of my practice to stop sweating change and the constant evolutionary process.
I am choosing to sink in and love it all. It’s natural, it is normal, it is karmic, it is correct.
We are ALWAYS in it or just coming out of it or just going back in and sometimes we match up with the people closest to us and it feels normal and sometimes we don’t and it feels rough and lonely.
It’s just what’s happening. Sometimes it feels terrible, painful and despairing. Sometimes it’s joyful, easy and inspired. We get locked in to this idea that “happy” is the correct way to be all the time. This idea that we have to be happy all the time creates a ton of judgment if we feel angry, sad, bummed.
I believe that when we are “in it” is when the actual healing is happening. It’s like being in war with your soul and that’s okay. Can you roll with pretty and non pretty reality? It’s so serious and also not so serious at all.

Nantucket yoga on Instagram
Follow me on Instagram for encouraging words, thoughts, motivation + everything yoga.
In today’s culture, you’ll often see an Instagram account of a yogi displaying pretty selfies in various poses. This is beautiful and can be artful, but more often than not, you won’t get the story behind the photo. The message that is real and true – the messy parts – the thought and circumstances behind what is really unfolding. All of my posts are honest and usually include a tip or two for trying a specific asana or a breathing exercise or a thought for the day.
