Breathing and Thunderstorms (By Stacy)

I walked into class last night and everyone was already on the floor, immersed in their own breath and space, with the quiet rumbling of thunder outside. As I took my spot on the floor and began my own breathing, the storm was drawing ever closer. It was a surreal moment that took me kind of by surprise, as mother nature and our energies began to connect. Us trying to breath into all 3 dimensions of our beings, and echoes of rain and thunder surrounding us.
I recently traveled to VA, where time seems to slow down and you have that moment to breath, or at least it feels that way, as opposed to living in the city where time is a constant factor, always rushing about our lives. So these 15 minutes of breathing time and inward focus is so important and so refreshing. Breathe folks, is all I'm saying!
