December Yoga Experience: Day 10


“A photographer gets people to pose for him.  A yoga instructor gets people to pose for themselves.”  ~Terri Guillemets

Today is Dan’s birthday, and we started off our morning with a luxurious massage. After a wonderful afternoon, I went to Laura’s class at 4:30 in the afternoon–a perfect time right now at Inner Bliss as the sun sets while you’re practicing. The combination of a massage plus yoga made me a wonderful present for my husband. 🙂

Laura is very special to me because she led my maid of honor and I in a lovely yoga flow on the morning of my wedding. I really wanted to start that day at peace and filled with love, and Laura’s practice was magnificent!

Her classes are so sensual, and we all melted open during the warm practice. Twisting our bodies and breathing into them was so wonderful. She guided us to stay strong, to see through the uncomfortableness, to just keep breathing.

When my husband came to pick me up, I was in a state of bliss. I was so calm and relaxed, and so amazed at how wonderful I felt. I was excited to cherish Dan and celebrate his birthday, and thankful that I had the gift of being present for him on his special day.
