A critical reflection for us at the junction of this full moon portal is to assess within ourselves how we are choosing comfort and growth at this time
Wonderful -- and love this "There is no other place to be than right here on Earth, navigating the muck, learning, growing and being inspired by the creative cycles of the cosmos. "
Yesterday I went to the first heated yoga class I had been to in a very long time. It was only 45 minutes, a hybrid of some vinyasa and HIIT. The movement didn't bother me, but the heat was kicking my ass. It may be that I wasn't as hydrated as I needed to be, but also my constitution was speaking to me very loudly, "We put up with you doing this shit for a very long time and when you realized it wasn't for all of us, you stopped. Now you are putting us through this again. No, thank you." One more example of how people ignore what is best for them. That's what came up as you talked about yin/yang.
I can totally relate to anger/passion and I can't wait to get started with martial arts.
It's all about the outlets for transformation. The exercise format is fine in like 30-45 minute sessions minus the excessive heat. But let's be real, that class wasn't yoga.
Oh, 100%. I did it for the HIIT, not the "yoga." The experience also really drew my attention to the people who only do the heated, power "yoga" classes. They don't know what they are missing!

There is SO much more. We will start this conversation in Sunday's class and continue it in a whole series in January 2025!
