“Be happy and fearless.  Remember that you are a child of Divinity.  Loss and gain cannot touch even  your shadow.”  ~Swami Rama

A place of beauty and peace…a place where all are welcome.  We gather in the Poconos Mountains of rural Pennsylvania to share our yoga practice, learn from one another, savor vegetarian delights, and deepen our journey to wholeness.  A wonderful way to launch my own Act II in Life–today is my first Official Day of Retirement.  A wonderful breath and movement practice opened our hearts–I felt as though I was opening myself to New Beginnings.  I bid a fond farewell to the past, embracing the new.

Every journey begins with a single step.  A silent walking meditation took us to Sunset Pond, where we watched in wonder as dragonflies skimmed across the water.  Calm embraced us.  Such a blessing, these peaceful moments!
