Mindful Day had a week-long break while I was in Jamaica at a yoga retreat. It was a very worthwhile experience, and I'm back with some new ideas and perspectives. Space allows change to happen, and having a week away from all the normal activities, with time to practice yoga, swim, lay in the sun (shade mostly), read, and make new friends, provided lots of opportunity for new things to arise. Swimming in the ocean was the top experience, aside from the yoga and conversations with people. On the calmer days, I could simply float on my back, relaxing completely into the support and motion of the ocean and look up at the sky, which was wonderful.
Even at its calmest, the ocean is moving. The power is so completely beyond me that there's nothing to do but relax into it. Then, for a little while, I felt like I was just a part of the ocean itself.
