These hips are getting more mobile! It is a process. Enjoying the ride! Scroll down through my images and see how far I've come. It's not all about big movement for me. Sometimes being in one position for a while gives you a grand deal of respect for for the amount of movement being still requires.

The other night... when the grammy's were on television... I was in my studio. That night I thought I was afraid but I wasn't. I was excited! I was excited because I knew I would feel amazing after I did it. I was excited because I know I can do anything I set my sights on! Every person's voice who ever cautioned me to take the safe route in my life popped into my head... and all at the same time... . "You might get hurt", "what if you fall?", "are you crazy?", "why do you need to do that?" . I could have just done my crow pose on the floor... why did I have to be a show-off and get up on yoga blocks? My questions were... Why NOT? What if I succeeded? How would I feel? That is what drove me. There is NOTHING like the feeling of completing something you set out to do that challenges what you have been told is "fear" at its very core. . There are way too many times we fall into a feeling we have been told is"fear". Someone else probably told us that it was fear... but it wasn't really fear. It may have been excitement or anticipation or something else completely NOT fear. . We tend to wrangle groups of sensations into very narrow categories like fear, anger, joy and sadness. There are so many other emotions and feelings to explore. Why pigeon-hole your feelings? Your body is capable of comprehending so many amazing things. Why not explore them and redefine them the way they connect for YOU, not as what some "expert" or "authority" has told you they mean for you. Take control over your life and your body. Freedom for me means more than being out of physical bondage and being able to do whatever I want. It also means being free of other people's ideas of what my emotions mean to me. Stay with me y'all...
