After teaching our Peace Pixies, Peace Princes, Light Fairies and Light Warriors yesterday afternoon, my evening was wrapped in a blanket of pure bliss and deep joy.
All through the night, I was filled with an extraordinary sense of purity, elation and the feeling of contentment in the most childlike way. Remember when we were 8 and we had played outside for hours? Our skin smelled deliciously cooked, marinated from dirt, sweet sweat , and unprotected sun damaged skin!
aaaaahhhhh...those moments. To have the ability to experience those moments again, the moment we feel our imagination unrestricted, pure and light. what better movie to watch last night, Bedtime Stories with Adam Sandler!
Kids are OUR leaders, guides ,and teachers. I am divinely blessed to live the yoga through my teaching and sharing. These brilliant kids together weave the threads of life, masterfully creating the magical tapestry that draws me in to help facilitate its development. On every level , the millions of threads these light beings create, are in fact our tomorrow's roadway. It is an honor and a moral responsibility for me to pass the experience of yoga to our children.
What a gift, an experience it would be for adults who have forgotten the MAGIC of the lighted soul. We must remember our hero, THE LITTLE PRINCE: he knows best how to teach those grown ups!
I close with some of The Little Prince's words which is the thread throughout our kids in yoga:
"Children should always show great forbearance toward grown up people...
it is only with the heart that one can see rightly;
what is essential is invisible to the eye."
"My home was hiding in the depths of its heart." This is how I feel in Sacred Space.
