Beautiful Sring Day.

 

Initial sharing around tonight's dinner at Farmer and the Cook.  Rave reviews about Olivia's cooking.  A little teasing about whose opinions matter the most.  This set the tone for the class and the dharma talk ended up being around the pratice of softening our opinions.  Sutra 1.2 and 1.33.  The sequence relies on the feeling of the earth, water, fire and air elements towards handstand.

    - 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.
