Five Things That I am Very Grateful For
- This great planet that supports us all. Not only do we have everything we need to live here, but we are also able to enjoy natural beauty without manufacturing it.
- My students. These fantastic people give me a reason to teach what I love. They are often also my teachers! A special thanks to those of you who get me out of bed before the sun rises.
- My teachers. Teachers certainly come in all forms. I am deeply grateful for my many generous formal teachers throughout my life in many disciplines. I also give thanks for my countless informal teachers that have come (as people or as situations) and have challenged me or taught me something about myself, encouraging me to grow.
- My family, friends and collaborators. Without all your support and love I would surely not even be writing this post right now!
- That I exist in this time and space. I feel so fortunate to be alive – it is wonderful to get to breathe, move, receive, offer, and express.

yoga – practice, play, embodiment, community
my brothers – my funny friends and my protectors
my grandmother – who at 85 is a reminder to me of the power of movement
feeling the outside on my skin – whether sun, cool temperature, rain
cooking – the foods themselves and the opportunity to nourish self and others through them

1. The rise and set of the sun, reminding us every day to be thankful that we have seen another cycle through. I’d like to add rocks to this, as a reminder of how young we are in this very old world!
2. My family, who always are there for support, even when times are hard for them.
3. Friends and community – from school, yoga, and life – who bring such joy and diversity to every moment.
4. Plants, that manage to acquire all they need from the sun and soil to nourish our bodies!
5. Fuzzy socks and a fleece blanket…because some times it is cold, and all you want to do is curls up with a good book…
