23 August 2009

This past week was my last week at a job in which I have dedicated much love, attention, and care. Excited about the possibilities of new EVERYTHING (challenges, routines, yoga classes, modes of transportation, people, neighborhoods), I also experienced sadness, alienation, loss, peace, relief and freedom. I found myself on the edge of tears for most of my last day (Friday). And after a full day of training, teaching a yoga class, disabling email accounts, collecting all my belongings and celebrating at a going-away dinner, I found myself emotionally exhausted. I treated the experience as though I were sitting on a meditation cushion. Watching the myriad of emotions bubble to the surface without having to judge or change anything - without needing it to be any different than it was.

I am ever- thankful for the skills and understanding that this practice continues to offer. And I continue to be thankful for the people that share and support the practice within our community. Love love love.

Oh, and also...

Hello, World! Here I come!
