Spinning, Savasana, and Furry Friends.

Today I discovered the beauty of letting go, once again. I was doing the yoga portion of Bindu's 21.5.800 challenge, and I decided that today I needed savasana. My heads been spinning with a lot of things. Career, blog challenges, e-courses, etc. Because I've been a bit spinny, and after my morning pages...I thought surrender was in order. Savasana here I come! I got everything ready, laid down, got settled, and my helper (the one you see above) showed up. I would really love it if he would participate like the dog in the commercial (have you seen that one? - it's escaping me whose commercial it is). My wonder pup decided to get involved - and not in a really helpful way. I did not have a camera laying around in case of a photo op, so this is an older photo of him doing one of the things he practiced (2 inches from my face), during my savasana. Adding to my surrender experience. As much as I cursed it, my time was enhanced. The love of  my pup wanting to be with Mom, worked out just fine in the end. Things don't always go as we plan, and we can choose to go with it or fight it. I went with it. It all worked out. Unconditional love is good stuff! And tomorrow is a new day.

I decided to jump in on Bindu's challenge - 21 days of writing and movement. 21 days of | yoga 5 days a week, and writing 800 words per day. I am starting on day 3 of the challenge, but I'm ok with that. (Between you and me - I do have a wee bit of agita about coming in late, but I am going to move past it). This challenge is exactly what I need right now. Yoga has been calling me, calling my soul for much too long now, so I will take this as the final loving push from the Universe. You can never ignore a soul's longing, not forever at least.

I am also looking forward to spending time writing...what I will write? I don't know. But I'm excited to see what comes up. I know that some of my loveliest discoveries have come from not knowing. And I'm so looking forward to participating with all of the lovely souls who have also signed up. If you would like to join us, head over here now. It's not too late.
