the journey

I went to a wonderful training yesterday with my teacher Tias LIttle who I have been with for about 6 years now.  The focus of the workshop was the internal, the Intorversion.  Turning inward through yoga and meditation.  

Here is a beautiful poem that we meditatied on by Proust - 

We do not receive wisdom

we must discover it for ourselves,

after a journey through the wilderness,

which no one else can make for us,

which no one else can spare us,

for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world.

I think about how my art practise teaches me about yoga, meditation and healing practice and of course the other way around.  Together they make a whole but the balancing along with the other roles I play is sometimes like being on a tiny boat at sea.......

All part of the journey......
