Holiday News 2021

Dear Friends,

I hope this communication finds you well and thriving. It seems like Fourth of July was yesterday and here we are, another holiday season upon us! I don't know the science behind it, but as I "mature" time seems to slip by faster and faster. Nonetheless, I greet you with heartfelt gratitude. It's become a daily practice, vital to my well-being.

Gratefully, this year's holiday season will be more joyous with the relative confidence for in-person gatherings. But because of all we've been through since early 2020, our gratitude has deepened. We've shifted gears on multiple levels. Connection seems at the forefront now, as well as the acceptance of change.

November is Native American Heritage Month. We highlight and celebrate the culture, contributions and history of the indigenous peoples of our land. Interestingly, I've recently received my DNA results from ancestry.com. It verifies my American Indian lineage. I'm mostly Scottish though, with Norwegian and Native American next in equal but smaller percentages.

Which brings me to the good news that I'm closer to the completion of my memoir. I'm galvanized once again to explore and share my story. Stay tuned for more on this plus the on-going sales of my collections of art and collectibles.

Meanwhile I continue teaching, both via Zoom and private training in the North County San Diego area – with service to your door! If you'd like to learn more about my private training and coaching programs, please reach out! 

Blessings & Namaste,

Mara

November Pose of the Month: 

Utthita Uttanasana - Standing Forward Bend

This pose is an intense stretch. Like all forward bends, it is a pose of surrender. It deepens relaxation and promotes rejuvenation. 

 

November Oil of the Month:

Wild Orange

Both sweet and refreshing, the scent of Wild Orange is invigorating. It is used topically, as an aromatic and adds zest to many dishes.

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS

Fifty years of teaching yoga – Wow!  Hard to believe, but it's true. I started my yoga training in 1968 at the Self Realization Fellowship in Hollywood. My first teaching gig was at the Pasadena YWCA in June of 1971. Quite a journey!
