Sharing a blog post I find particularly relevant and poignant from my teacher, colleague, and friend, Terry Coburn, who
Lives in Freeport, ME:

“These past few weeks, we’ve been moving through the Metal Element — the part of the cycle that teaches us to refine, to see clearly, and to let go of what no longer fits. As we cross into early November, that energy begins to shift from sharpening to softening — from cutting away to adapting.

This is the essence of late autumn and the energy of Samhain: the in-between time. The light fades, the air stills, and everything in nature reorganizes below the surface. We’re invited to do the same — to adjust, to move slower, and to listen for what’s next.

I’ve been reminded of this lesson in my own body lately. In dealing with a recent volleyball-related hamstring injury, my movement has had to become more intentional — every cue, every step, every instruction pared down to its essentials. It’s been humbling and clarifying, a real-time study in the Metal Element’s gifts: precision, awareness, and the courage to pause.

The practices this upcoming week will carry that same energy of adaptation — movements that build strength through flexibility and awareness. In yoga and strength work alike, rotational patterns improve mobility, balance, and core stability. They remind us that release doesn’t always mean letting go completely; sometimes it’s simply about learning to move differently within what’s already here.” — Terry Coburn

Hi Friends,

I know it has been quite a while since I’ve written a post. For those who may not be aware, I am now comfortably relocated in a beautiful new home and gardens in Ormond Beach, FL. It is my work in progress, and I’m thoroughly enjoying designing and creating both indoor and outdoor spaces that I feel reflect and express the essence of who I am. I will fill you in with updates as I go along.

Since I have moved down here last December, I have taken a break from my 37 yrs of teaching fitness and 25 yrs of teaching yoga classes, and have been enjoying my own daily practice of all styles of yoga and Qigong with teachers I have found who inspire me, Terry Coburn, Terry Coburn.com, and many teachers on Kino McGregor’s OMStars.com. One of these days, I will get back into the studios and return to teaching. For now. I’m just letting myself physically and emotionally settle into my new location, and new life.

Please stay in touch and let me how you’re managing to sustain peace and equanimity through these very challenging times.

Until next time, Friends. OM Shanti. Namasté. Robin

When an infant sleeps on their side or on their stomach, there is an increased risk that they will rebreathe their own exhaled breath. This is dangerous because exhaled breath is comprised of carbon dioxide. To combat this, it is recommended that infants sleep on their back.
