"Have you ever wondered how things work in nature? One would assume that in evolution the fittest survives. However in nature, any species that is overhunting, overexploiting the resources they depend on as nourishment, natural selection would sooner or later take the predator out, because it offsets the balance." ~ #malencebartwilliams . What. is. happening? . Repost @wwf_ch ・・・ #SadNews from Brazil: The forest fires have reached a new record high. The worst forest fires in years are currently raging in the world's largest rain forest. The Amazon is one of the most species-rich areas on earth and countless animal species are losing more and more of their habitat due to fires. These fires are often intentionally set by people who want to gain new land for agriculture. . . . #Brazil #forest #fire #RainForest #ForestFire #sad #Amazon #record #habitat #agriculture #planet #earth #world #tree #HabitatDestruction #news #BadNews #SouthAmerica

This is easily the one of the hardest poses to connect with in a yoga practice. Why? Well, the purpose of this pose is to be still in the body as well as in the mind. As we all know, this is easier said than done. Maybe our bodies are still, but then our mind begins to wander out of the classroom. When we let our mind wander and we get an itch that must be scratched so we fidget. Being still is so hard! . Savasana, meaning Corpse pose, is also practiced to help us prepare for death. It is a scary thing to think about, but it is a reality we all face. Even with this understanding, to hear of someone passing on is always a shock, and it is also quite sad to hear. I recently learned that a friend unexpectedly left us. She was one of my teachers in India. She left an incredible impression on me and how I teach. She was one of the key teachers at my school who understood my mobility and guided me with such care through my morning practice. . Losing someone you care about is never easy, living or dead. Through a #patientpractice, we can get through it in time. . I honour her light today.

When I saw this image, it reminded me of the Steven Covey strategy about productivity. If you haven't heard about it before, here it is in a nutshell: You have, water, sand, pebbles, and rocks to fill into a jar. In what order do you fill these items to get everything into the jar? . According to Covey, the big rocks (aka the most important things like quality time with loved ones, education and finances) should go in first, followed by pebbles (aka emails, calls, laundry) then sand (aka less urgent but still important to-do list items like household touch ups, or exercising). At that point you can add water and get more items checked off on your to-do list so your jar is completely full. . Reading that back gave me a little anxiety tbh. . To understand the subject better, I did a bit of research and came across a refreshing article by @reneefishman entitled, "𝗦𝘁𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝘃𝗲𝘆’𝘀 𝗕𝗶𝗴 𝗥𝗼𝗰𝗸𝘀 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴" She argues that this method of productivity is counterintuitive because it lacks an important item which by adding results in a better quality of life for our mental health. The jar, aka our schedule, needs SPACE. SPACE to rest, SPACE to decompress, SPACE to reset. Give her article a @google search, it's a good read. . I also invite you to reflect on your to-do lists/your schedule: Does your jar runneth over? Where can you create space? To what can you say NO to? . #Repost @davidmrule ・・・ Montana Rocks! Lake McDonald is just one giant bowl of fruity pebbles, part of a complete Glacier breakfast. If only I was a rock-eating cave troll I would’ve chomped down on these delicious looking stones. One of the most epic lake shores I’ve ever seen. The vibrant color of this spot is similar to the authentic, emissive color of the new OLED TV by @lgusa. Its vibrant, deep color makes for the top image quality on the market. @oled_space #itsoledoroled #authenticemmissivecolor #lgpartner

Warrior, too . This is a pose that symbolically teaches us to bring focus, wisdom and courage into every action. It also teaches us a story from the Bhagavad Gita of Virabhadra, the lock of hair from Shiva's head transformed into a warrior to avenge the death of his wife, Sati. We all know of the three variations of the Warrior pose in yoga. Warrior One represents Virabhadra's arrival with two swords, Warrior Two (pictured here) represents the focus on his target, Warrior Three represents the decapitation. . Morbid stuff for yoga, huh? This is because as much as yoga appears to be about peace, tranquility and light, it is really about how to navigate through the metaphorical battlefield of life. This brings us back to the spiritual warrior within all of us to bring focus, wisdom and courage into our actions. . This week, I encourage you to tap into the your inner Warrior, too. . #motivationmonday

Love this piece by my friend @chokotravels - the message, the visual art. All of it. . I found it to be an interesting pair to an interview I read with a famous comedian. He has approached a place in his career where he has everything he could ever ask for, but sadness still weighs heavily upon him. He now turns to art to express his true self beyond the comedian we know. . If someone who "has everything" is still feeling emptiness, it brings me to ask this question: What are we doing all of this for? What are we trying to achieve? For what purpose? Sometimes, it just takes a moment of reflection, a moment quietness to remember what is most important. . #Repost @chokotravels ・・・ Juste une pause If you got impatient, watch it again and enjoy the quietness ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #japanphoto #thisisjapan #japanfocus #fujisan #mountfuji #mountainview #mountainlover #hikemore #mountainguide #mountaingram #natgeo #ourplanetdaily #worldtour #holidayphotos #mywherever #travelphoto #travelstoke #travelbucketlist #traveladventure #travelismylife #workfromanywhere #womenwhotravel #workandtravel #girlwhotravels #remoteworkers #voyages #globetrotteuse #travellingtheworld #travelinladies

Melt into the cocoon of the aerial hammock as I guide you through the deep relaxation of Yoga Nidra. Head to the @campyoga #linkinbio for details

More magic discovered exploring the 'gram. 🦋 . Butterflies are a symbol of personal transformation. Some would say they represent rebirth, change to come, and even hope. . It always lifts my spirits when a butterfly crosses my path and this summer, I've seen an abundance of them. How about you? . #Repost @dinatelhamiphotography ・・・ C a p t i v a t e d ⁕

Remember when I had short hair? 💁🏽‍♀️😄 This #tbt is a throwback to 2 years ago! Seems like ages ago because of how much has changed since then. I feel like a different person! Grateful for, humbled by and accepting of all the experiences that have come my way. Is it weird that I am already over 2019 and cannot wait for 2020? . . ➡️SWIPE ➡️ This vid is a follow up to what I posted in my story. There was a little wonkiness in uploading so there were parts missing. Here it is, in all it's plant-loving glory... Bonus is, you get to see the side-by-side difference between my hair then (2yrs ago) and now #purplehairdontcare!

Not only is this a gorgeous photo, @optic_adventures paired it with a quote that resonates. . “𝗔𝗶𝗺 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗸𝘆, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘀𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗹𝘆, 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆. 𝗜𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲.” 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮 𝗞𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗵𝗮𝗿. . The sky is one of my favourite aspects of nature so it is no wonder why I love to fly! Whether it is in an aerial hammock, or with a partner in acro, or even on a plane, I love being in the air! . Thank you for this reminder, Jose (@optic_adventures)!
