Nature's Cycles, Daily Practices, and Nutrition Guest Speaker Dr. Greger

May 23, 2012

Greetings!

Welcome to a new moon cycle! It has been quite the galactic ride for this first half of 2012, and I don't know about you, but I am excited to see how the rest of it shapes up!

One thing I have learned through my studies of yoga and plant medicine, is that the more we can rightly attune ourselves with the cycles of the seasons, the changing currents of weather, and the monthly cycles of the moon, the easier it is to withstand the inevitable challenges that life presents to us. One of my challenges has always been to 'simplify' my life, and my schedule. So far nothing has forced me to simplify more than not having the physical and emotional energy to do the things I love.

This past moon cycle has gifted me with some rough patches with my health, and then some really slow patches in work which have allowed me to sit back and take in the bigger picture and re-prioritize. This combination was the perfect cocktail for some major restructuring in my life. Old things are moving out, new things are flowing in, I am wearing scarves when it is cold, and I am scheduling in more time for fun and play-time with family and friends when it is warm. Maybe you have come through something similar? Is there anything in the last month that has challenged your ability to simply enjoy life?

Luckily, I've had some great buddies to help me through these changes. My awesome boyfriend, incredible colleagues, family, and friends, but equally importantly, I've had my practices. Yoga, plant spirit study, nutrition, and my recent interest in Taoism have been essential tools. I feel that my faith in the intelligence of the universe has been strengthened through these daily practices and studies, and my daily practices and studies have deepened as a result of my growing faith.

As always, we welcome you to join our small watering hole for community practices that work with the natural cycles of nature. Our yoga classes, plant spirit medicine work, astrology consultations, moon tracking sessions, full moon gatherings, and nutritional work, are designed to remind of us of how we can work with the seasons of the earth and the changing seasons of our lives. We are so grateful to have such a stellar group of practitioners and guest teachers here at Sky House and hope our learning community can support you in enjoying your life to the fullest and living in harmony with this fantastic and dynamic world.

Cheers to LIFE!

Ashley, Adam and Abby
