Embody the mountain before you

This weekend was my first ever time leading a yoga class. My theme was surrendering to what is. As I intently thought about what embodies this, I couldn’t help but imagine large mountains and how they can weather any storm. After a deep meditations I wrote the following and read it aloud during slavasana.

Oh Mountain how beautiful you are under all the suns glory

Covered by the snow you are confidently breathing.

As the rain begins to fall you cleanse your soul, as if you are singing in the shower.

When the wind whistles determined to sweep you away you open your arms following its sweet song, you dance.

Dear with mountain, you can weather any storm.

Just breathe.
