Dolphins Optional



Just was looking into yoga class schedules for the weekend...very much still in yoga recon...and received an email from Renee, the teacher I absolutely loved in Laguna Beach. She has a lyrical French accent and Shavasana often caused thoughts of lavender fields in Provence to drift in my mind (and I've never been there yet!).

I used to practice yoga in a studio but Saturday mornings often began with 'yoga on the beach' in a hidden cove in Laguna. I never used a mat as being in the sand always made me feel playful, and also grounded. The sun, the perfect temperatures, feet in the sand. Leaping dolphins were often spotted. It was pretty amazing - santosha - perfect contentment.

I'm keeping this thought in my mind on the subway this morning...

Happy Friday everyone.
