Notes from The Moving Path Ellen with a Lotus Flower
The Season of Spring Rebirth & Renewal is fast upon us! 

 

Friends,  

I write to you today from The Sophia Institute, Charleston, SC, downtown in the historic district; my door is open, the birds' song beckons me outside to welcome the dawn.  EE Cummings so beautifully described Springs' arrival as the thousand shades of Spring Green. Renewal, revitalization, rebirth, refresh...words that so aptly describe Spring's gifts to us. I feel blessed and I am blessed!

Of course, I write to entice you to join me for professional training, personal development or just plain enjoyment in one of our many programs taking place at Esalen, in Bali, Charleston or Miami.  Our newest program, the 200/300 Hour Yoga Teachers' Training with Dashama, begins in Bali on June 5.  Dashama has some open spaces in her program for the entire four weeks, or for 1, 2, or 3 weeks of retreat/training. Here's a link to her site, where you can read, view and register.

 

Professional bodyworkers wanting an Esalen Certification, you still have time to register with us for June 8-29, in Bali.  Click here for more information and to register.

WORD FOR THE DAY

I Have Learned So Much

 

I have learned so much from God  

That I can no longer call myself  

A Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim,  

A Buddhist, a Jew  

The Truth has shared so much of Itself  

With me  

That I can no longer call myself  

A man, a woman, an angel  

Or even a pure Soul  

Love has  

Love has Befriended Hafez so completely  

It has turned to ash  

And, freed Me.
