Hand Craft Yoga

A message from the collage poetry experiments, volume 2024:
💫💌💫
Happy 37
She did it!
Sacred elements in place,
The novel keeps getting better.
Embracing her success,
Ready to leap forward,
Up for brilliant ideas on demand.
It's okay to try things out,
Take a retreat,
And see what works.
The beauty is you're not bound to set plans.
🔮 ..I am so grateful for another year to unfurl petals 🙏

I've said it before, and I'll say it again... advice from 2019 :
Be in the present 😜🎅🎁
Want extra presence this year? Enjoy the moment. Remember to breathe🌠

((the paradoxical advice from the past to be in the present is not lost on me✨️))

A message from the craft lab.

In case you find yourself wondering... Has Monica always been so style savvy? I think you'll find your answer here, circa 1990
Grateful for this inner child 💓

Props to poodle for being so dang cute.
Isn't she lovely? 😍

Finding a forgotten selfie in the photo gallery is like finding dollar bills in last winter's coat pocket.
These are a few of my favorites 💙

Rest assured, Winnie is always on duty...
..that is, until she falls asleep. Then you're on your own.
🧘🏼‍♀️🐶🙏

Goin with the float... happy summertime y'all 🤠

Today is the International Day of Yoga. And this year the theme is humanity.
This theme reminds me of the magic of learning. One of my favorite parts of yoga is that we all get to learn from each other.
This highly physical and deeply conceptual practice is shared from human to human. From one candle flame, an entire room can become illuminated in seconds. 🕯
I'd like to give gratitude to the amazing teachers, peers & students I have had the chance to learn from and practice alongside over the years of my journey.
If not for these individuals who shared their flame, the light of yoga would not shine as brightly in me. Many thanks to:
Steve, Bobbi, Lindy, Alejandro, Ella, Michele, Jojo, Marisa, Katie, Nikki, Kelly, Kathryn, Tara, Lona, Becky, Raye Lynn, Doug, Aki, Alex, Jeri, Ashley, Mariana, Rachel, Shanti, Laura, Jason, Amy, Jo, Tiffany, Taylor, Elena, Christina, Gioconda, Manorama, Joanne, Amy, Britt, Elaine, Donna, Mark
& To the countless students who have trusted me to share the light of yoga with them, I bow in humble gratitude.

Cheers to 2022 🌱🦧
