Boston Again

All photos by yours truly.

It. is. what. it. is.

Here I am. Boston. June 30, 2012.

Cold drinks come in new flavors, same order redefined. Cheers.

Structure. Raw structure. Work. Sleepless.

Keep going until what you have made has changed the world.

Do it again.

Exploring

   what is           nature

            other humans                telling        like it is like it           could be     buy this

or at least                                           take a look at it.

night pulses its own pace

upward motion to the moon

scars written on your face broken down palace

that sailor was so drunk he could hardly stand and i hope

he made it home OK

but it's his own fault if he didn't.

picking up the pen &                      writing with it

sidewalks full of glory

stories not yet heard

                                   go forth

                                                  om namah shivaya  is what i have to share

prepare to come back

expectations are resentments waiting to happen

reflections)))                    night water bowl

sound of life

keep walking 

until what you think you know

disappears

Hilarious. I love it.

How do you live your yoga off the mat?

Boston (In the Raw): Day 1

All photos via my not-so-smart phone.

Boston, I just fell in love with you!

Your suave & sunny weather, your whimsical clouds floating by.

Your city streets, alive alive alive with people.

Your buildings, big and small. The streets winding through them.

Your Back Bay seafood (!). And the fact that a guy sitting at the bar was friendly enough to offer his recommendations for the best dish on the menu. No hesitation to share what he knows.

"You made the right choice coming here," he said. "This is the best seafood in Boston."

I just smiled and felt how good fried clams are with salt, lemon, a little tartar sauce.

Is there anything better than living in the moment?

We people watched, and made up stories about the cooks in the kitchen.

How one was pissed, wishing he could be anywhere else but in front of that hot flame. The bartender said something like, "Story of my life."

I felt for him. Alive in the fire, I thought, sending him a namaste.

After the food, there was a girl on the street playing the harp. Feeling the music move through her. Beauty lives in all of us.

The city here breathes. Throbs. Just is.

It is what it is. 

I'm grateful.

I am.

Thank you, Boston, for being here. I walk the path.

Boston, Here I Come!

Photos by me.

This weekend I'm visiting Boston for the first time ever. I'm so excited to experience the sights & sounds, to be near the water, and to explore.

Travel is a celebration, wouldn't you agree?

Cheers, and hope you have a beautiful weekend wherever you are!

What Money Does

all original photography by me.

this is a prayer

this is my voice, crying out into

the darkness

void

i am here for you.

hold on to what you need.

lean on me.

listen.  be.

eat the food you are hungry for, that you so deserve.

  

forget what you think you know

what have we to offer? what have we to give?

coins from the coffer, hope that we might live.

hope for what we're after

promises of when

lay it at the alter ....

then

Cheers

I am so grateful for this time.


A weekend full of hooping, yoga, good food, feet walking down the sidewalk, people out and about, talking, cool drinks, shade, and summer laughs.


What are you enjoying today?

the freedom to play                                          to feel                                   to be

Now I'm off to try 108 sun salutations by Lake Michigan... wish me luck! It's going to be so. beautiful. out. there.

XO!

YogaEarth Superfood Solstice Specials

All photos by me.

Summer is a great time of year for eating superfoods, don't you think?

The air is hot, the body wants to feel light, the mind wants to be free.

YogaEarth can help bring you back to the body you love and desire.

You could try a chocolate coconut almond bar, some organic coconut water, or even chocolate-covered goji berries (mmmm, my fave!).

The organic superfoods, bamboo water bottles, and Lunar Wellness kits are also fantastic deals.

Enjoy! Share!

May you be light & filled with love this summer.

I Create the I Am

endlessly


effortlessly


I go on


knowing nothing but what I feel


knowing everything


conceding to love


experiencing change


being a victim of change


being no victim


happiness not real


til shared


happiness real


in me, for me


is what it is


tet set
