Good morning, everyone!

I arrived in Albuquerque late last night, the stillness of the cool desert air immediately inviting my limbs to rest. There are few places so moving (or holding histories as heavy) as this landscape of yellows and reds. Each time that I return, I am reminded of the expansiveness of our existence, of the profundity of a single stone etching resting beneath a horizon that stretches hundreds of miles before the eyes.

I look forward to returning home bearing the peace and wholeness of heart that being here, surrounded by loved ones, brings. Until then, please remember that I will not be leading any classes this week -- the Yene Yoga regular schedule will return Tuesday, 12/16.

In gratitude,
Betsy
