Yoga As Devotion

Today is the Second Day of the #SPOOKYASANA Yoga Challenge! Today's pose is Crescent Lunge.

It is interesting how my mind works. Some poses have indelible associations with them. Doing this demanding thigh and back stretch often reminds me how my teacher would clasp his hands sharply with a clap, throwing his shoulders back and suggesting after we had been in the pose for a long while that we offer it to the Lord.
I offer it to you now in that spirit of happy reverence. As the days grow shorter and primitive feelings of fear and inadequacy arise trying to greet it all with unlimited acceptance and then offering it back to the Universe from whence it comes can be transformative practice.

Happy Second Day of Spookyasana!
