Practicing at home is a lesson in not letting the external distractions affect my internal focus. Between cats & kids, there’s always noise & movement & desires for my attention, but in many ways I prefer this to practicing alone in a quiet, secluded place where my children don’t absorb seeing my daily movement, & hopefully in time come to want something similar for themselves. Modeling these self care habits hopefully has an impact long term - there are many times they stop what they’re doing & love to join in, even creating their own unique yoga asanas alongside me. Jasper’s current favorite is his ‘unicorn’ pose creation, a modified version of 3 legged dog. It brings me such joy to see their creativity in movement.
