10 Peeps


It rained in Ojai today.  A little.  But it never rains in August.  Never.  So it felt like a special day. Usually when the class is more intimate, I will ask for requests.  "Hips" was the only one.  I was surprised with the class that I taught.  I focused on the themes of "God is in the details," the support and substance of the dark feminine and the importance of becoming whole.  I had a major dream last night which most likely lead to this talk.  I pulled from an Alan Watts presentation, "I have met God and She is Black."

We peaked at CowFace.  The asana instruction was geared towards grounding and allowing the earth to have us.

Troubleshooting Video Playback Mischief

  • Download the latest version of Firefox and restart your computer.
  • Download the latest Flash Player.
  • A slow connection will affect video playback. Allowing the video to "load" before viewing can help smooth this out. Here are the steps:
    - Press "Play" and allow the video to roll for a few moments.
    - Then, press "Pause" and allow the video to "load" before hitting "Play" again.
    - You will know the video is "loading" as the bar to the right of the play button darkens gray.
    - This will also give you the option to scroll forward and back more easily.
  • Report Problem to the Help Duck.
