Here. Now. That’s all

It’s been a weekend of yoga yoga yoga for me. A great weekend! I went to Emma’s Jivamukti Yoga Night on Friday. At the beginning of the class, she asked where we would be if this was our last night alive. Where you would be and who would you be with?

Hmmm. Well, a thought immediately sprang to mind. I would be there, with that person. Not here, where I am, not with the people I am with. Of course. That was the purpose of the question.

Later on in the practice, and it was a three hour practice, Emma asked again, and I realised that I was happy to be there, with the people who were in the room with me. Present. Here. Now. That’s all there is.

I wonder why we need so much reminding? Well, I do, anyway.
