Mackie Osborne Yoga

Class is in session!! Mackie's Wake Up & Breath class is happening on Zoom every Tuesday and Thursday 7-7:30am Mountain Time (Tucson time, which is the same as Pacific Time right now) All you need is you, a mat, most likely a blanket and a little space. All you have to do is roll out of bed. You will be glad you did. Find a link on the YogaOasis website.

Cheers! From here. “There is nothing else than now. There is neither yesterday, certainly, nor is there any tomorrow. How old must you be before you know that? There is only now, and if now is only two days, then two days is your life and everything in it will be in proportion. This is how you live a life in two days. And if you stop complaining and asking for what you never will get, you will have a good life. A good life is not measured by any biblical span.” — Ernest Hemingway

Listening is something that happens with all the senses. Listening is the ability to accurately receive and interpret messages in the communication process. Listening is key to all effective communication. Without the ability to listen effectively, messages are easily misunderstood. ... Effective listening is a skill that underpins all positive human relationships. (From Skills You Need). When you look at it like that the idea of Listening to the breath seems like an important skill to practice. or not

Freak Flow and Sorcery Slow. It’s starting tomorrow. or not.

There is so much beauty in this world. There’s also scary sad horrible things happening at the same time. I feel blessed to have friends on this journey where beautiful and terrible things happen. Grateful to know we don’t have to do this life alone. I’m teaching on Zoom on Tuesdays and Thursday mornings. 7-7:40am Pacific Time and Tucson time. Come move and play and breathe and be curious and gentle and have fun.

Saguaro blossom. Quote for today: “We have this idea - I want to change, to be more alive, happy. You have to accept yourself as you are, as if the way you are at this very moment is never going to change. What that does is give the power of change to our being and takes it away from ego. Ego has the power to change, but will never do it. Real change comes from being. If there is a practice it would be to continue to observe yourself as you are with this qualification: Any judgement - good, bad, et cetera - or expectation of yourself to change stops the process of change. If change is going to come, it comes from relaxing our chokehold, our grip, on just letting things be as they are, right here, right now." -Lee Lozowick.
