A musical interlude while we’re waiting for spring to get it’s shit together.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
April is the cruelest month, breeding
lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
memory and desire, stirring
dull roots with spring rain
― T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land

It Is Spring Right?
I added this sweet little dish of jelly beans and chocolate bunny after Sarah used them as a part of her poetry reading. It’s a perfect addition for a Spring-time puja… and a much needed reminder that it is in fact Spring.

< IMAGES Become SHAPES >
I never wanted color to be color.
I never wanted texture to be texture, or images to become shapes.
I wanted them all to fuse together into a living spirit.

We work with these different shapes when we practice. I often like to think of them individually as letters. They each have a unique pronunciation and visual identity which I love. As we learn they move together into words, sentences, paragraphs, and eventually stories.
I think yoga is the same. Each pose has an identity. As we become more versed our practice becomes more fluid. The details are always there but the practice becomes more alive. And it gets easier to tell our stories.
PlayList w Latest Updates
Bonnie “Prince” Billy and Lykke Li seem to be the newest favorites. I personally can’t get enough of Trevor Green’s cover of Talking Heads “This Must Be the Place”.
Enjoy a new soundtrack for the beginning of a new season.

My friend Linda Wu sent this to me with a little message for my birthday. It was a sweet gift idea. She lives in SF where I’ve never been and I plan to visit her there this summer. Maybe all the buildings look like this there.
I LOVE it.
Anyone know who the artist is? Ben Eine maybe?
