| Living Joyfully |

Hi Everyone,
I had the opportunity today to take a class from a new teacher, in a style I hadn't practiced before. What a joy to invite my body to move in new ways, and to focus my brain so pleasantly on the task of doing so. The mind's natural curiosity expanded, and I found myself entering into a spirit of inquisitive playfulness. It is so easy to go through the daily routine, choosing over and over the same habitual things, spiraling deeper into what Yoga terms our samskaras - ingrained patterns of thought, behavior, and action. Yet at the same time it is also easy to take the opportunities life presents to us of  trying something new, inhabiting the beginners mind, and stretching out of our usual ways. If we look at our samskaras as psychological callouses, moving beyond them brings us into tender areas - we may feel uncomfortably vulnerable. Think of a baby learning to walk - if she didn't let herself be vulnerable, didn't ever let herself wobble or get off balance, she would never develop the strength to walk at all. But she does. We all did it, in fact, and not so long ago in the big scheme of things. Don't be afraid to wobble. Let's not worry about the way other people will look at us when we stretch out and try. What would you rather say at the end of the day: I did the same old same old? or... I tried something new. With a childlike grin.
Namaste,
Erin

Yoga Gusta
A Workshop with Garrick Peters
Exploring the senses in the midst of movement
and meditation.
The Gustatory Sense is our sense of taste. In addition to diving into the other senses, we will use food to become attuned taste and how our mouth ca n be a key focal point in asana practice.
Yoga Gustais 'multimedia yoga' where we playfully explore our detection systems (hearing, vision, smell, taste, touch) with the purpose of understanding, rather than simply seeking entertainment or stimulation.
Yoga Gusta
