compassion mudra:

- Sit tall with arms outstretched at shoulder height, fingers spread wide, palms face forward.
- Steady and deepen your breathing.
- As you inhale turn your head to gaze at your right thumb.  As you exhale gaze back to center.
- Repeat this 4 times, the do the same on the other hand.
- As you breath feel a flow of acceptance, love and compassion through the heart and arms.


(if you'd like to receive my monthly yoga newsletter, send me a comment.  this month is about compassion.)

twice a week i drive across the fields and farmland to longmont where i teach english to non-english speakers - mostly spanish speakers.  it's an exact reversal of my time learning spanish in costa rica, a huge time commitment and so much fun.

john gave me 200 tulip bulbs for my birthday - a present that required alot of assembly and equal amounts of patience.  a present that provides endless joy now.  

people walk by and stare, some pause and admire, some slow down as they are driving, the neighbors come over and compliment.  i've never gotten a present that spread such pleasure and appreciation, even to strangers.  thank you johno.
