,As the sun has reached its highest point in the sky, a shift in season returns us to the great outdoors and into mother nature.

Together, we welcome warmer weather, cool dips, tranquil days, mesmerizing sunsets, and star-studded nights. 


This is a good time to nourish your inner light, feel the hope of an illuminated world, and trust your journey around the sun is filled with all the goodness your heart desires. 

I hope you enjoy the poetry. May it add sparkles to your summer!

Waking to a New Season
By Mely Ann Parker

There is a stillness in the air from summers gone by

An open window, a gentle breeze, golden rays paint the sky

A swaying hammock beneath an ancient oak tree,
This could be eternity...

The hum of chimes whisper yes in the key of love,
Beneath twinkling stars above

Barefoot dreams, moonlight soft and bright,
On this summer night

Summer, like a love affair that could not last,
Though not forgotten,
Fading all too fast


Nature Is a Dream
By Rosie Llewellyn

The showers of April brought the flowers of May
Now June bugs fly through our windows
As days stretch further into night
Fans twirl to keep the house breathing
And still - the ceiling could be stars
I’ll see you outside


Summer's Spell
By Mely Ann Parker

Summer casts her golden glow upon me
A shimmering kiss of serenity
Enticed by endless turquoise waves
Saltwater my body craves
Again, I am lulled to this place
Forever soothed in her embrace
Where the tides flow in and swiftly roll out
Casting the shoreline in her spell
Summer is here
All is well


As Above So Within
By Rosie Llewellyn

If you could trace the sun
Eventually
You’d circle back to your own heart

The World Needs You

"The dawn blooms as we free it, for there is always light if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it." ~ Amanda Gorman, Poet Laureate

I can't begin to imagine the horrible pain the families are feeling at the loss of their children in Texas, the communities in Buffalo, Uvalde or the people of Ukraine. It certainly doesn't end there. 

So, where does it end? 

It ends when we put a stop to assault weapons readily available to anyone.
I found this discussion between Katie Couric and Robyn Thomas to be eye-opening, and I encourage you to give it a listen. 

In this interview, Robyn spells out the steps to put an end to these vicious crimes and senseless loss of innocent young lives. 

Together, may we grieve and embrace the true gift of life as we continue to hold the suffering in our prayers. And may we continue to hold hope – HOPE for a world of peace – HOPE for the next generation – that they will live in a world where their children can go to school without the fear of the next shooting. 

"My mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.' To this day, especially in times of disaster, I remember my mother's words, and I'm comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers, so many caring, loving people in this world." ~ Mr. Rogers

Please take a moment with me...

Place your hands over your heart. Breathe in love and gratitude for the precious gift of life. Exhale out worry, tension and fear. I invite you to sit quietly and take 5 full breaths in and out. 

When we are able to be fully present, we can be the helpers, the truth seekers and the peacekeepers.

The world needs you!!!!

    I believe that Yoga is for "every body" and I love sharing my knowledge as I move through life "living my Yoga." I want to share this with others so that all may reach their highest potential through this ancient healing process.
