Now that I have made this Bluesky we all share my only social media home, I thought it would be a lovely idea to create a starter pack for Buddhism/Meditation/Yoga. Please feel free to suggest more accounts for this starter pack.

I love foggy weather, the Saluda River was particularly beautiful this morning

May the Lunar New Year bring the light of renewal, the joy of connection, and the strength of resilience. As the new moon rises, let it remind us to embrace beginnings w/ gratitude, honor traditions with love, and step forward with purpose.Wishing peace, prosperity, and harmony to all who celebrate.

Before meditation, a tree is a tree.
During meditation, a tree is no longer JUST a tree—it is also the rain, the sun, a home to countless beings, the breath in our lungs, shade.
After meditation a tree is a tree (and so much more).

The same is true of me, and you, and all things.

"Water is fluid, soft, and yielding. But water will wear away rock, which is rigid and cannot yield. As a rule, whatever is fluid, soft, and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard. This is another paradox: what is soft is strong." -Lao Tzu

"I want to experience your vulnerability but I don't want to be vulnerable. Vulnerability is courage in you and inadequacy in me. I'm drawn to your vulnerability but repelled by mine." -Brené Brown, Daring Greatly

"I pray that the little stones that I put into the mosaic of my life may make a worthwhile pattern. I pray that I may persevere and so find harmony and beauty." - Twenty Four Hours A Day

It's always hard, returning to "normal life" after a weekend of YTT, and so easy to get caught up in the monotony of routine. I feel too busy to get on the mat, too busy to meditate, too busy to slow down and savor the magic of small, ordinary moments, too busy to build a life I love.

it's a beautiful snowy day in asheville!
