A humbling experience, this Stand Up Paddle-boarding. Gently rolling with the smooth, lapping hiccups of rippling lake water sometimes intensifies to a mighty trembling as the body searches for balance, particularly the higher up you go, distancing your mass from the liquid net beneath you. A well-used yoga truth is reinforced here: balance has nothing to do with stillness. And it certainly is not about fighting. It is a wide, indigo-blue door to acceptance of what is. Finding symbiosis with reality is the gift we find when we allow the knob to turn, the hinge to creak, the gush of air to enter. Clarity and intuition flourish again, regaining ground from the last time we forgot about this. So we practice being on shaky ground to remind ourselves, over and over and over. . . . #supyoga #lakelearning #bakahhhhhsana! #bakasana #balancetraining #stillnessandmovement #outdooryoga
