Not to alarm you, but these words from the heretic

Not to alarm you, but these words from the heretical Gospel of Thomas are an evergreen PSA:⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
"If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.⁣⁣⁣"
⁣⁣⁣
A whole sermon on the necessity of creativity, if you ask me.
⁣⁣⁣
Join me in this online Yoga for Creativity workshop on Jan 17 with @wildgingerherbalcenter where we will explore the many ways creativity & Yoga intersect and how they fuel each other. How we can let the practice be an exploration of creativity instead of another imposition of patterns. So much of yoga today is taught as replication of movement patterns to make our bodies comply with culturally programmed ideas of health/wellness. With the breath as an afterthought and rest an omission. How fun (not). What I’m suggesting here – as I do in my regular classes – is that our practice be led by our breath, we move no faster than we can feel, and we stay present with our bodies. And have fun while we’re at it.⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
As you might have noticed, we spend a lot of our lives at the whims of oppressive systems that have a stake in pretty much every area of our lives.⁣⁣⁣
As a liberation-oriented yoga enthusiast, one has to wonder:⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
☀️ Can we let our yoga practice be a space where we return to our sense of sovereignty and autonomy? Where we begin to set aside the pervasive programming and create for ourselves the yoga practice that meets us where we are, as subjects of our own presence. Not objects for others’ approval.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
☀️ Can we orient our practice around the fundamental responsibility of looking after our hearts and rejecting the tyranny of entire industries/economies/algorithms that thrive on us being convinced of our inadequacies?

Sword Lilies, pencil on paper. These two in the last row of a day-old bouquet, letting themselves be enough, while a mad world swirls around.
🕸
Looking back on how this one turned out, with my 22-year-old earnestness many (many!) years ago, I'm in the mood to put pencil on paper way more often 🤞
🕸
I read somewhere how the pandemic has a lot of us returning to the activities we enjoyed when we were younger, because it gives us a sense of safety and familiarity like little else. I don't know about you, but I can definitely relate. Hope you're finding spaces of sanity, safety and beauty to hold you through these mad times.
