The only constant is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.
— Isaac Asimov

Prana Yoga
The rain here is so different than on the Pacific coast. The fog is heavy here and the mist shows no sign of burning off in the afternoon sun. I feel enveloped and isolated by the rain this morning.
I went back to my Prana Yoga practice this morning, diving into the prana body, feeling the electricity throb and tingle in my hands. A simple three minute asana sequence is so much deeper and blissful when I'm plugged in to prana than any "full" practice of just going through the motions. Sometimes I have to do that, the going through the motions part, just to get the practice moving. But today, I seemed to be able to start in deep, which was beautiful.
I feel alright leaving the job search and questions behind for the day to relish time with my family. A day of connection in the rain.

The Real Stuff
After an amazing three weeks in Oregon, L. and I are back in New York. And what a strange transition it's been. Even though we've been talking about "the plan" forever, I can't believe it's actually here! I quit my job, people!
We left for Oregon only 3 days after my last day at work, and so I've been in a dream land so far. And now, I think this fact is finally starting to sink in. I have no job. No income. No schedule. It's all open.
This is scary as hell.
I'm not quite sure what to do now. I'm cleansing and practicing yoga. Cleaning house, metaphorically and physically. Preparing. For... something. The next step? Or maybe I'm just catching up.
How does one BECOME a yoga teacher? I'm feeling so soft and vulnerable right now, I can't believe I actually have to hit the pavement with conviction. Hire me, hire me, help me, help me.
