What Costa Rica Taught Me

1. I don't melt in a monsoon
2. Bugs can grow really big
3. The jungle is mesmerizing
4. The people of Costa Rica are kind and gentle - all of them
5. I enjoy waking up to the sounds of the howler monkeys
6. Sloths really do move slow
7. Beans and rice are nourishing
8. Yoga in the jungle is delicious
9. Snakes can get into yoga rooms
10. It (whatever "it" is) will never dry

I patiently await my return - next time with more friends :-)

Be The Light in November - Inspiration

The WoYoPracMo theme for November is Seeing the Light, Being Light, Searching for Lightness. Being Light. I like that.

I have always loved November. The coolness (sometimes very cold), the shorter days, warm & comforting food, warm fires, tea and fleece - oh yes, and flannel sheets on the bed. Wow - I love November. It is also the time when I really turn to my more introspective side. With the earlier darkness, it is much less of a challenge to get on my yoga mat. To practice my breath work. To meditate. It is much easier to journal and to be silent and to connect with others on a deeper level. It is the time of the year where I am really able to fill myself up and look back on the year. For me, November is a great month to see the light.

Off to walk the dog in the cool morning beauty of November.

What will you do today to help you live the theme? Need some help? Below are some places I think will help you See the Light, Be Light, and FIND Lightness. Enjoy!
