the spine is not vertical
it is a snake that dancing all the time
the breath plays the tune
ad the spine dances...
there is music that goes on all the time
--Sandra Samartini

Let your breath be the thread
that weaves your body and mind together.The secret is to keep watching -
the knots will untie themselves.
Emphasize the equanimity of you mind in the pose.
Fall in love with suppleness.
Yoga poses are alive
in your dialogue with them.
Feel the shape of the pose.
Fall in love with subtlety.
Listen to the waves.
Allow yourself to be empty -
then your voice will emerge.
Let you whole body hum.
Yoga is sensual
at the deepest root of sensuality.
Connect - reconnect -
again and again
to the earth.
-Rodney Yee & Nina Zolotow
