An Auspicious Day
My girlfriend, Elyse, came into my life on a rather propitious evening.
We’d both just met the world renowned Seane Corn at a Master Teacher Roundtable at Moksha Yoga Center and were feeling an aura of positive energy after an amazing and inspiring talk.
We had an hour an a half to kill between Seane’s talk and a Kirtan featuring Devi 2000 we were both planning to attend. We decided to have lunch with a group of our yogi friends at a nearby Subway, which is where I met Elyse. She claims not to remember, but I think I wooed her a bit during lunch by showing her a picture of my brand new French Bulldog puppy,Chloe:
I also met Elyse’s Mother just before the Kirtan, who turned to not only be super cool, but also helped encourage Elyse to go out on a first date with me!
Our original intention was to attend a Kundalini yoga class together, as Elyse had recently been on a Kundalini yoga retreat in Costa Rica, but we ended up landing on a glass of vino at Vera instead.
Didn’t turn out to be such a bad idea ~ now we live together in an awesome apartment together in the West Loop! We also didn’t give up on the idea of hitting up some Kundalini together. We’re heading to Kythira, Greece on a yoga retreat with the same teacher Elyse went to Costa Rica with this August.
