Prairie Yogi magazine had its official launch event on Saturday night at Peg City Yoga. The lovely Darlene Svenson, featured in PY's article on Hockey & Yoga, taught a beautiful class all about new beginnings.
To start, we were instructed to write a word or phrase that signified a new beginning on the piece of paper placed next to our mat. Everyone then shared their word, uniting us as a class and setting the tone for our practice.
I wrote the word sunrise.
Darlene talked about the creation of Prairie Yogi, something that was once upon a time just an idea, a single thought, that through passion and dedication has come to be. She asked us to use that inspiration to write down something that we would like to create the possibility for in our hearts and tuck it underneath our mats.
That one I will keep a secret ;).
The flow of the entire class was beautiful, with postures flowing seamlessly one into the next and in the practice I felt free. She spoke poetically through the class that breezed by. Through stretching, smiling, and giggling, I felt release that was followed by a lightness in my heart, bliss.
After the class, over tea and cupcakes, people grouped and caught up, the room was full of love and inspiration. I could not have asked for a better night to launch this new beginning, I only hope that the students in the class start their new beginnings and don't leave it tucked away under their mat for too much longer. •♥•
