EXPLORING OUR DEATH TO LIBERATE OUR LIVES
The fear of death, our own and our loved ones, is one of our greatest fears. How would we live our lives differently if we contemplated and even practiced this ultimate letting go?

EXPLORE DEATH TO LIBERATE LIFE - A TRANSFORMATIONAL RETREAT AT KRIPALU
It is always a rewarding experience to present at Kripalu, but this year, it seemed especially so. People, myself included, seemed more hungry than ever to feel what is real and true, in both our inner and outer worlds.
I felt so blessed to have a team of talented women supporting the Partner Yoga for Couples Weekend, including Gina Lee, a gifted teacher who shares poetry that opens the heart like only poetry can. Margie McSweeney, midwife of birth and death, serenaded the space with sounds from a beautiful hand crafted instrument, and Lara Christine, another inspired teacher also added her beautiful singing voice.
One thing is clear to me - that as long as we are alive, we have a precious opportunity to grow and change, to mature our humanity both emotionally and psychologically. And to deepen into our spiritual nature - the part of us that recognizes to a greater or lesser degree, that we are more than this body and the story of this lifetime.
INTEGRATION AND RECONNECTION
Over the years I have had the privilege and pleasure of offering a practice on the deeper purpose of Savasana, or Corpse pose. Although most Yoga classes end with this deep relaxation / integration pose, it is rare that we get to consider the deeper meaning and value of the practice.
I would like to share a story from many years ago that happened over the course of a weekend ‘Exploring our Death to Liberate our Lives’. It is an experience that stays with me because of this woman’s bravery to face what was really true for her.
