Beginner's Mind

By Angi Donovan

What if you could go back to the very first time you felt the powerful presence of your breath? Or back to all the new and intriguing sensations that came to light in your first yoga class? What if you could go back to that wide open space where what you “know” was not yet known?

While we have built much strength, flexibility and balance by being experienced yoginis and yogis, the unbiased and deeply receptive state of a beginner’s mind can easily get lost in all the knowledge that is gained.  So as the kids of our community return to school this September we too will return to new ground where the experience of life is bigger and more interesting, and where our perception enthusiastically wonders what the next moment will hold.

Start fresh this month as you take your sense of awareness and practice back into the enlightening power of the beginner’s mind!
