    Great Michael,

    You’re both on the list.

    I’m working with SpiritFire in putting together the schedule for classes, meals, free time, rooming info and costs for the retreat. I’ll be sure to send it right out to you when it’s done.

    Thanks so much for your note, and I’ll see you in class.

    Hey John,

    Great class last night at Mystic…thanks! Loved the chat about Hindu naturalism, really interesting about how yoga practice connects us back to the natural world….so cool. Since I started doing Bikram about 6 years ago, and then adding vinyasa, I’ve avoided the “philosphy” of yoga…for me it has always been such a personal experience, as if talking about it too much might break the spell! Plus, with Bikram, you just “do it,” like the Nike ad. Anyway, I find myself interested in learning new ways of experiencing the practice lately, and it is always stimulating having a new teacher. So thank you again, and I hope to see you soon…

    Namaste

    Hi John,

    I will be returning from Maine on Saturday and I’m not sure if I will make it by noon, can I drop off a bag of food? Also the class at Mystic sounds inviting but I’m not sure where it is and if membership is required.

    Sorry to have missed class tonight but hope to see you soon.

    Namaste,

    Marjie

    Greetings from El Salvador.
    Thanks John, for a few great classes during my visit home. They were exactly what I needed to get back in tune with myself. It is so true that you need to take care of yourself before you can help others.
    Good luck in your endeavors and don’t forget to check out idealist.org. Hopefully it will help you find what you are looking for.
    Be well,
    Laura

    we are all looking forward to having you back !! happy new year !! I loved the ongoing classes and sharing of experience through your blog, talking about opposites, you are here without being here…
    Remember Debbie ? I introduced her to you at one of your beginners’ Monday class. She got a subscription to the Yoga Journal for me as a Xmas gift. In the January issue I found this definition of friendship. Friends are people who connect you to things you have no words for. I thought it apllied to you so much !
    Best wishes and blessings for the rest of your trip !
