Day 5
Thank you for sharing your time with me this week! I hope the last 5 days spark a desire for a continuous practice.
If you want to continue to practice in community, check out the Move Well. Be Well. family. We’re a collaborative virtual studio with 6+ live classes a week and over 300 videos in an on-demand library (think Netflix for yoga + pilates). And never hesitate to reach out if I can support you in any way.
Your Day 5 practice and poem are below (remember: you have indefinite access to the session as long as you store this link somewhere safe.).

Breathing in, I am here. Breathing out, I am relaxed. Rinse. Repeat.
Poem of the day:
Love After Love by Derek Walcott
The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.
