On the Board at Good Life Yoga: Oct. 25
Embrace the Darkness
If you’ve been feeling a little edgy lately, a little off your game; you are not alone. This time of year invites all types of discomfort and uneasiness. We are moving into the time of deep darkness. Not only are we short on daylight, but this weather pattern has offered us more gray skies than I can remember in years’ past. The wonderful thing about practicing Anusara Yoga is that we practice looking for the good in all things. We are fabulous ‘spin’ doctors. We can choose to appreciate the darkness as a warm embrace. It nurtures us and brings us to a time of deeper contemplation.
This week we will open our heart to the darkness and find the beauty and the good within. Our open hearted practice will include daring backbends and simple ones too. We will also spend time preparing to sit in a deep meditation on the wonders of this darkness. There is fun to be found and at Good Life Yoga we will uncover it.

Hi Amber — What a great theme for this time of year! I was home with a sick boy on Monday. He learned how to do a downward dog and cobra with me! See you and my fellow yogis on Friday.
Warmly, Mary
