After a week of sharing the gems of yoga alongside some of the world’s most gifted luminaries, I have realized one simple thing: trees are the greatest healers. To be in their presence is to be in direct contact with life’s greatest elixir: oxygen, Prana, and pure consciousness. ✨ And also - there is a profound stillness that can only be found when we detoxify our nervous system from our gadgets. It takes great commitment and will power but I think it is worth it for small periods of time on a regular basis. 🙏🏼 Deep bow of gratitude to the entire @chopra team and the 200+ brave souls who committed to a week of being with themselves without the distraction of the outside world. Your devotion to silence was a great gift for me to witness and deepened the teachings for all of us. 🙏🏼 Thank you also to everyone who sent light to my family while they endured the wrath of hurricane Ian. Everyone at home is safe and luckily, our area was spared most of the damage. Sending prayers and light to anyone who suffered loss from the storm. It’s a humble reminder for us to continue to take good care of our planet. It provides so much for us so effortlessly. 🌍 Back home for a few days before I’m out west again for Well Within this Thursday. Who’s coming? There’s still spots open for you! 😍💛💫 Special thanks to @meetdarlene for the photos and her pup Caleb for tending to my doggie-withdrawal. 🐕💕 #yoga #meditation #wellness #chopraretreat #yosemite #nature #trees #sequoia #naturelover #doglover #yogateacher #unboundpotential
