Dear students and friends,
I sit here this morning witnessing the early dawn from my breakfast table, awed by the beautiful stillness of the rose-coloured skyline. Within minutes the rose light has faded.

What a wondrous gift this stillness is as I begin my day.

I pause to soak in the present moment. I look for inspiration to write this morning’s POST. For some reason, the song, “Silent Night” plays in my mind and I become teary eyed as I think of the first two verses of Silent Night,
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright….

Those two first verses have an effect on me. I stop to observe what it is in these two lines that has caught my heart strings.

I think it is because this is what we are all really seeking: those moments where life stops and we are transported totally into a perfect, present moment. We are immersed temporarily in a world of peace where all is calm and all is bright.

I think this feeling of calm, of brightness is within our grasp more often than we may realize. We just need to stop and observe and be in the present moment. There are perfect moments every day that we miss.

When we practice yoga, we try to move and sink into the present. In doing so, it is an invitation to uplift our spirits and find calm and brightness… and experience a perfect moment.

See you this week, for a magical Christmas practice!

Namaste!
Jocelyne
