Spirit

My beautiful mother became an angel on April 9th. Thank you all for your outpouring of support, kindness and love over the past 13 months. It was the hardest year of my life, and I am thankful for all of it. At one of the last classes I taught in March, a student I have known well for the past 5 years came up to me and said, "You know that all of the energy your mom is losing is going directly into you, right?" I instantly knew what she meant. I am so thankful for the numerous gifts mom gave me throughout my life and find that this new gift of a clear, strong connection to her Spirit feels both magical and overwhelming at times. My mom's journey with brain cancer has influenced my teaching and the way that I approach my own yoga practice in ways I never could have imagined. Ultimately, I now know with certainty that mom will be with me forever, and that brings me some genuine peace.

I took a break from everything to be with my family for almost three weeks and am looking forward to resuming my regular teaching schedule this Friday, April 19th. I hope to see you soon! Also, my next Learn to Breathe workshop is THIS SUNDAY, 4-6pm at the Loft. Click here to register.

With so much gratitude,

Megan
