March asana of the Month

pincha mayurasana/forearm balance
recently i have been having trouble with my right wrist while doing yoga. i don't have a lot of flexibility in my wrists and yoga can put a lot of pressure on tight wrists. this is particularly frustrating since a lot of the more advanced poses (arm balances, handstand) are hard on the wrists. so normally i might have been a bit panicked about the pose of the month being forearm stand. but i am so excited about it being a pose that is not hard on the wrists i am practically eager to give it a try!

Allow change

Be change

Live with awareness

Love

Practice kindness

Gentleness

Stand barefoot in the dirt form time to time and breathe

Find the perspective of nature, a grain of sand, the grand canyon

Believe in peace

Make good coffee

Climb mountains
