We Have Walls and Great Teachers!

We have plumbing, electrical, walls and a beautiful design that gets closer every day to being an amazing yoga studio and retail boutique. I had thought that in this blog I would be sharing the challenges of the build-out, but so far things have been incredibly smooth. (Thank you Shawn Eldridge at Capital Paint and Construction, Andy Ekstrom with Heller Pacific and Catherine Reon with CRKW designs- to name only a few of the folks who have been instrumental in things working out so well!)

In fact, the other day when I hung up with my designer/architect/second cousin in-law (who has done more work than I ever imagined or intended she would do when I asked her to help me out a little at the "family rate") I was struck by the level of commitment and dedication so many people have already put into creating Asha Yoga. How does it happen that all of these great people appear in my life at the perfect moment and are willing to give so much? Once upon a time ago I would have said that I was lucky that way. "I am lucky enough to always be surrounded by incredibly wonderful and generous people." But, years ago I made a statement like this and the person I was talking to pointed out to me that LUCK is a matter of perspective. "If you focus on the good things in your life you'll feel lucky. If you focus on the bad things you'll feel unlucky. Because the reality is that we all experience both all the time." He said.

So here comes my sales pitch... It's Yoga. It could be karma and yoga reminds us to do more good and so then we receive more good. -Or it could be that yoga changes our attitude/perspective in a way that helps us see more of the good and therefore experience more as good. Either way, I'm sure yoga does make a difference, and I am happy to have my focus primarily on all of those who have been so helpful in this process so far!

I hope to introduce our fabulous teachers soon! They are another blessing to me.... and hopefully soon to all of you as well!
Namaste,
