The first few days of summer life's busy pace slows down for a moment. The kids can sleep in and the house is peaceful as the coffee is brewing. Today was one of those days that is starting out beautifully. I taught my normal 6am yoga class and when I returned home I did my own practice outside in the backyard. The sun was peeking out from between the clouds and a soft breeze was blowing as my "Shadow" (Charlie my dog) was next to my mat sniffing the air and I am sure he was thinking - "Life is good!" because we think a like!
As Timmy got up he grab his book and snuggled into his favorite chair to read - music to my soul! I put down the dishes I was washing and followed suit by grabbing my book and off I went to my reading corner. The morning passed slowly as we each enjoyed our books. Then Nick got up and he too went for his book to read. What a peaceful way to ease into the day and to top things off it is Friday!
I hope you all are having a mellow and peaceful start to your day!
Namaste.

Ah, the gentle introduction to summer. Mine is not so very different, but the expansion of the outdoor living area sometimes fragments me! The price I must pay for paradise in my own yard...is well worth it. Yoga keeps us grounded and, well, heaven headed!It's good and comforting to know you are still here, shining & beautiful as ever!

Adelia,

Namaste,

Such a lovely picture. Summer reading and quiet corners.
My friend is a yoga teacher and she says she has such a hard time when doing her "own" yoga not to describe what she is doing in her head:)
Seriously, I think I'm going to move in next door - then I can just hop over and join you for sun salutations in your yard :-).
...what a sweet way to start your day. our mornings are a bit on the other extreme just now as my oldest is taking summer school, but soon...very soon...xo, mickey
