I've been feeling discouraged that I can't manage most of the yoga poses, but tonight I had a breakthrough and I felt encouraged and I love the acceptance your practice offered me. I couldn't even do some of your poses tonight, which is why I so appreciate your reminders to soften my jaw, to drop my shoulders, and to pay attention to what I can do - and, also important - to what I cannot do, and to accept that too. And, as always, to consider my intention and to my thoughts about what I might be able to do tomorrow.

I feel loose and relaxed in my upper body and I look forward to more of your classes.
