"There are places [in our bodies; in our poses; in our lives]  we don't know we can go; it's like there are choices we can make that we don't know we have."
                                                                                        --- my yoga teacher


On wednesday nights I go to class with a teacher who has impacted my life so gently that, at first, I didn't know it was happening.  From the beginning, I knew she was wise and that I could learn a lot from her regarding my yoga practice but when I think about my deepest connection and understandings of yoga and life today, much of it I attribute to her.  Surely, practice and study have been my duty and pleasure.....and......countless seeds have been planted in me by her words.  


The idea of expansion is often presented in the beginning of class.  With the connection to breath come the ideas of expansion and I have loved moving around in this concept for quite some time.  I present this idea at the beginning of every class that I teach.  There is an immediate connection with the idea and the bodily feeling because we are breathing.  But this idea of expanding into places that are not known to me really hit me!!


Can I really make choices that I don't know I have?  Or are they just there and actually unavailable to me?  If so, how can I make them available to me?  Can I expand my possible choices to limitless?


At this point in my life and in my practice it doesn't make sense to walk away from this possibility........

I'll keep you posted.
