I finally started reading Elizabeth Gilbert's Eat, Pray, Love and just as everyone told me, it's a great read. It takes me back to my sweet time in Italy (Tuscany) this past Fall and the fantastic Balinese Sojourn and Yoga Adventure retreat I went on with Spirit Journeys and the incomparable David Moreno (Abhi) earlier this year to Bali (2008). Rathi, I miss you! Abhi, I so want to join you and Kevin in NM this summer but alas I don't think that's going happen. I loved last summer's men's retreat at the Bodhi Zen Center. It was a difficult time for me, falling in love at the wrong time with the wrong person and the healing began there with the creative writing, the sweat lodge, the trance dancing and the rest of that incredible and indescribable experience with such a fantastic group of beautiful men. So healing. Yet another lesson in learning to keep my heart open to all things but listen carefully to my gut. I'm looking out my window as I write and the moon is full, or nearly full and draws me. I saw CW today for accupuncture and need to remember to incorporate Nadi Shodana (lunar breathing) into my daily practice. Cool the heat inside. Practice has been good this week. Murti, you are deep in my thoughts and my heart, my teacher, my friend. May good things to come you. I'm glad you read the Andrew Harvey interview in The Sun, and I'm so glad to have discovered him. Now if only I can convince Dale to either go with me or give me his blessing to get signed up for the pilgrimage to India in early 2009. I'm rambling and it's way past my bedtime. I'll curl up with EPL and Pepe and Ralph and let the moon bath the room in her soft glow.
