Meditation for more kindness and ease

A short meditation I recorded in Jackson Hole. This meditation focused on the four aspects of your natural breath while cultivating kindness, love and ease. I hope you enjoy this short meditation.

Keep GROWING and PROGRESSING on and off the mat!

this is a 40 minute practice speed up that I narrate some of my alignment focus and my heart focus. My hope is seeing me practice might inspire or deepen your own practice. Today I focused on growing and progressing in my life on and off the mat.
"Let the goal be to reach perfection, but be content with a little progress toward perfection each day" BKS Iyengar.
I used to torture myself trying to be perfect. Now I don't want to be perfect but I do want to keep growing every day for the rest of my life! The dream of moving toward perfection ignites the fire inside me, the effort needed for transformation. That requires perseverance, continued effort over a period of time despite difficulties, failures or opposition.
