I'm BACK! I spent the last week in beautiful Arizona training to be a Holy Yoga instructor. We did lots and lots of yoga. I sweat. And learned. And stepped way out of my comfort zone. I learned that out of my comfort zone is a wonderful place to be. I had no idea that I was going to the desert to be splashed and filled and to swim in the LIVING WATER. I had no idea I was so dry. And needy. And had a heart that I was slowly allowing to turn to stone. I was stuffing and stuffing … [Read more...]
