Winter 2009

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS

Dear Friends,

             I wish you Joyful, Peaceful Holidays.

             At this time we all  have the opportunity, the challenge, to create for ourselves, for our fellow humans and for the world, a more Peaceful and Joyful  future. Remember it is our responsibility to be the creators of our lives, and if we make wise choices this enhances lives around us

             I am feeling very blessed at this time.  I am  HOME.

 When I arrived in the Pacific Northwest I felt I was home.

             When I moved to Lopez Island I felt it was home.

              Now I have moved to a small cottage in the village of Lopez and know in my depths that I am truly HOME. I am living in a wonderful, creative community with many opportunities to follow my passion in helpful way.

             Most of us have so many blessings in our lives.  Expressing our gratitude daily for all of these is a practice we want to cultivate. Guruji said “You are all  born in heaven but you don’t know it. “

             I am also grateful to Ascent Magazine and their reporting of the conversations that some of us yoga teachers over 65 had at Yasodhara Ashram at the time of Geeta’s visit last year.   We were discussing what it is to still be involved in teaching and yet suffering some of the disadvantages of later years.

 This visit and workshop  was so special because there were fewer than 100 students there with Geeta., and the Ashram has a very spiritual atmosphere.  What a blessed event!

             May this New Year 2009 be a time of deepening your practices and experiencing the rewards of that dedication.

                                     Blessings,

                                                            Felicity
