Inward Balance
I am so grateful to have had the opportunity this June to have studied with well known yogies Ganga White and Tracy Rich at the White latest retreat in Santa Barbara California.
Wow, what a pleasure and joy to soak in their experience and wisdom.
I got to swim in the natural spring water swimming hole, do yoga for hours every day and hike in the woods as well. It was so serene I felt like I was on another planet.....the planet I want to live on.
The most significant realization for me was as the retreat progressed each day I noticed the "other peoples voices" I have heard in my head since I was 6 years old made of my own judgmental thoughts disguised as family, friends and teachers were gone. These unhelpful nagging voices had dissolved and beautiful silence was left. My pal Lisa says "I unplugged".....well I guess one of the voices is back. I began to hear the soft soothing hum of existence, my main operating system, and the best part is it was with me all the time. Now all I have to do to get back to that stillness is to be aware of its constant presents.
Peace and joy, Sally
