This winter, I’ve been meditating on what is dead within me and what is possibly dormant. I don’t have a list of ways I’ll start new in 2018 quite yet because I am not quite sure of what potential is “warming” within me. I am thinking on this quote from the Quaker writer and teacher Rufus Jones: “I pin my hopes to quiet processes and small circles, in which vital and transforming events take place.” I know that as I commit to certain parts of my life–practicing yoga, understanding this business, teaching both the 200 hour and advanced teacher trainings–that I am endeavoring back into that exactly–the “quiet processes and small circles” that do indeed hold all that is vital and transforming.
