My yoga bolster arrived.

You can follow the link above to the recent article on yoga and my interview with yoga master Karin, who teaches mindful practice on fantastic Cape Cod (offers remote classes)and is brilliant at it.

I recorded the audio with my recent adventure in trying to find a great bolster. Bolster can be used during meditation practice as well.

My meditative state:

I’m certainly looking for one, in time of stress, overlapping emotions and busy job tasks. When the nature, like in winter, creates a climate of short days, long nights, dark streets, naked trees, how do you find energy and motivation? Where does the eye wonder, what will the soul search for? Birds departed, ground is frozen and only dogs bark in the distance…

Then you search…and you do it again, time after time you get up, look in the mirror and get to it.

The peace and solitude that meditation requires, and even [perhaps ]demands - to do it right - may be found in quiet corner of the house, on winter walk, even if snow is no longer creating the lovely carpet, and the wonderland is a thing of the past.

One needs to keep at it, there is no option for giving up on something that is so good (even Netflix has a Headspace meditation series), so keep giving it a chance. I keep giving it a chance.

And now I have my orange bolster to help.
