Breath, Plants, and return to relationship

I have always loved non-ordinary states of consciousness. Long before I had language for spirituality, ecology, or nervous systems, I learned to move between states of awareness through breath… Plants meet us where breath lives, at the border between inside and outside.

yoga for life

Our new yoga columnist explores stress and how a yoga practice can help alleviate the effects of too much stress in our lives. Unless we spend time exploring the underlying causes, ultimately nothing will change. A yoga practice can help us do just that. One of the gifts of yoga is that it helps us cultivate greater self-awareness. By getting on your yoga mat, you are taking time to slow down, be mindful, and see what you can learn about your body. Learn how to listen to your body and give it what it needs on a daily basis.
