WHAT IS YOGA?
TO A POETIC PLACE OF RECOVERY
FOR A NEW BEGINNING
Yoga is about finding that
power within your mind and body
to heal itself and not be
a victim of circumstances
beyond your control.
Yoga is what allows you to be in
control of your body and to
free it from the delusions of
unhappiness and grief.
They are not your true reality.
Yoga is that truth and happiness
within your heart for more love.
Yoga is that mental and physical control
channeling energy throughout your body
to heal itself from suffering.
Yoga is your compass to more freedom.

FOR A NEW BEGINNING
TO A POETIC PLACE OF RECOVERY
FOR A NEW BEGINNING
In out of the way places of the heart, where your thoughts never think to wander, this beginning has been quietly forming, waiting until you were ready emerge.
For a long me it has watched your desire, feeling the emptiness growing inside of you, noticing how you willed your way on, unable leave what you had outgrown.
It watched you play with the seduction of safety, and the gray promises that sameness whispered,
Heard the turmoil rise and relent, wondered would you always live like this. Then delight, when your courage kindled, and out you stepped onto new ground, your eyes young again with energy and dream, a path of plentitude open before you.
Though your destination is not yet clear, you can trust the promise of this opening; unfurl yourself with the grace of beginning that is one with your life’s desire.
Awaken your spirit of adventure; hold nothing back, learn find ease in risk; soon you will be home in a new rhythm, for your soul senses the world that awaits you.

TO A POETIC PLACE OF RECOVERY
TO A POETIC PLACE OF RECOVERY
TO A POETIC PLACE OF RECOVERY
I am going to a place I have
never been to before.
A calm serene vision of my true
self has arisen.
A calling to where I want to be.
A flash of light in my consciousness.
A true measure of my mind.
A necessary awakening of my soul.
I am in cool clear water,
And I feel the cleansing of the
spirit now mine.
I am going to a place I trust within me,
A knowing of myself I had
not known before,
A growing and nurturing space,
A time of arrival.
The sad gloomy places do
not harm me anymore.
I feel a strength and a purpose
that is mine.
I have worked for it.
It will not leave me easily now.
I have lifted myself up.
I will not be taken down again.
The hospitals are still not far away.
But I am not in them now.
I have happily relinquished my
patient status.
I am free.
I am going to a place I've never
been to before.
I feel myself open.
I am not hard now, but soft.
A yielding has happened.
I am submitting to my own Truth.
