Spring and New Growth
Dear Friends, With sunshine, showers and gorgeous spring flowers starting to bloom, we are feeling particularly grateful for the arrival of Spring this year. I hope you will take some time this month to celebrate rebirth, life, and the divine within.
My daughter Sara and I are just back from a tour of ancient sacred sites on the island of Crete, where the Goddess/Earth Mother was worshipped 4000 years ago. We were powerfully moved by the deep sacredness of the earth’s bounty, especially apparent this time of year, when the wildflowers are everywhere, and the earth is waking from her winter hibernation.
Yoga is a wonderful way to re-connect with Nature. Our bodies and our breath are the clearest connection with the natural world, and in yoga, we enjoy getting reacquainted with both and become truly present in the here and now, celebrating with the earth, the miracle of our existence.
May the rain bring you new growth,
Annie
