Peace...
So this has been an interesting time in my life. I'm getting good response with my Mysore classes and shifting my focus on teaching even more. Friday after having 9 folks come through the class, I went to Illinois to see The Dark Knight Rises with my mom, then have lunch with her. That night I taught the teacher trainees at Yogasource some Thai massage and they loved it. It was cooler on Saturday morning so had a large park class, then I drove back to Illinois to teach in a teacher training over there, one of the ladies who is taking it even already follows my blog, so a shout out to Mary! Since I was over there again I went to my moms for dinner to eat Roma's pizza, very good. While there I picked up my comic books that have been stored there since the 80s, I'm planning to see if any of them are worth anything and putting them on ebay if they are, to make money to pay for my trip to India.
Today, I woke up early, had an amazing practice of primary series and then taught my class at Yogasource, then home and napped and am now just hanging out here. I may start going through my comic books to see what I think can make me some money and what can't.
The title of this comes from the feeling that I've felt all day, peace. I practiced, and anyone who knows ashtanga knows its a vigorous practice, but sometime during it I got to that place, that zero point, as Yogi Bhajan would call it, and from there is where I moved all day long. My thoughts, even my actions were very simple and succinct and clear, to me and everyone else. Its a nice place to be. This is what we want all the time but feel we have to work so hard to get to.
So amidst a super busy schedule all weekend I was able to come to this place, which is a blessing. And now even after a nap, I'm still there. Just started a load of laundry, in this overbearing heat and I'm still there. I'm still there.
So, being there is great, it won't be permanent by any means, I know that, but I'm there now and enjoying it. Now, tomorrow is another story, we'll see!

Thanks for the shout out! I loved meeting you-I was so very sorry I missed inversions, which I love!(but the wedding was nice, of course) What great energy you have in real life. :) I successfully sold a few comics myself to raise money in the past(I was an X-Men fan back in the olden days,who knew they'd become so popular). How wonderful-something that brought you enjoyment back in the day may very well send you to India! What a happy thought.
Thanks! I'm going thru my comics now, wow I have a lot, and its a lot of work organizing them and finding out how much each is worth. Haven't even begun to post on ebay yet. And X-men is my superfavorite too, I have more of them than anything and all of their spinoffs. I'll see you on your August weekend on the Friday night!
