October 2007,
Aloha all,
This year
has been a transformative time for me. There are many gifts to be
grateful for.
Early in
the year “miss birdie” passed on at the age of 14+. It is such a blessing to
have had her in my life. Birdie’s body was buried under an apple tree at the
home
of her friend Anne Carter.
The 2007
Teacher Training gathered a diverse and amazing group of people that
nudged me and pulled me to new levels of teaching! The course was held during
the last few months at the Piku Mala property in Kula. It is now turned over to
a lovely
family with 3 young girls who are very enthusiastic to have a farm.
In August,
I happily relocated to Launiupoko on the West side of Maui where I
have found the peaceful tropical climate to be ideal and I greatly enjoy living
near
the ocean and numerous walking trails.
Also,
in August, my mother passed on peacefully in her sleep. She had been ill
early in the year but enjoyed some months of relief with her children and
grandchildren
before moving on. I miss her presence on this planet
and have developed a new
appreciation for the role of mothering in our lives.
In May of
this year I took time at an Ayurvedic retreat, Rasayana Cove, in south central
Florida for pancha karma treatment and time alone. It was an opportunity to
rejuvenate
and bring clarity to my next step. This respite demonstrated to me the value of
taking
time to go inside; it is the most rejuvenating gift we can give ourselves. Even
if it is for
only five a day, pausing to acknowledge your inner most self will open the path
to the power
of Spirit. My results inspired me to begin offering retreats for students as an
opportunity to
learn how to foster this connection into their daily living.
The process
of writing a book on consumption and food from the Yoga and Ayurveda
perspective continues and is in the editing stage. It is a much larger task
than I realized
and will be published very soon. I am enjoying the journey and learning a great
deal
about myself along the way. It would not be possible without the tremendous
effort of
the editors and friends, Shannon, Brenda, Dana and Vanessa.
I am
continuing to work with students through private consultations and healing
services.
These may be done in my home, your home or office and by telephone. A list of
options
can be found at
www.MauiYogaAndAyurveda.org or by email.

May you find your joy within and express it in your life in each moment.

and much love,
myra
