SATURDAY'S PRACTICE

"...and the day came
 when the risk to 
remain tight in a bud 
was more painful
than the risk 
it took to blossom. ~~ Anais Nin

As you move through your practice this morning, be conscious of what you are holding on to a bit too tightly. Is there something you can let go of that will change your perception and experience of the asana? Find the perfect place to blossom in your practice.
