To Infinity & Beyond!
Dear Friends,
Once again space exploration is in the news! The first launch of the new Artemis mission is scheduled for this week. In mythology, Artemis was the twin sister of Apollo – thus these missions will bring us back to the moon. There is still much to explore there and the intention is to land astronauts on the moon in future missions. As of today, the rocket is at the launch pad, and soon we’ll be launching an unmanned rocket. We’re getting ready to explore the moon and outer space again.
Future Artemis missions will send humans to the moon and position us for deeper space travel. There’s a whole portion of the program that’s called Moon to Mars. And who knows what will happen after that?!?
We are actually travelling to infinity and beyond.
And I’m here on my yoga mat on Earth.
I like it here on my mat. Yoga is centuries old and I keep returning to it. It offers me a chance to release tension and to recover from the events of the day. It isn’t a ‘quick fix’ but I know that the more I practice, the more it does fix. I like the way that I feel at the end of my practice, so I’ll step on my mat tomorrow as well.
When I share yoga with my students, there are always new things we can explore. If we happen upon a moment of grace or insight or calm, we can use it as a jumping off place for more self-study. That’s why we take those pauses throughout our practice – to reflect, to notice, and to learn.
I keep returning to my mat and I keep learning more about myself and my place in this vast universe. There is still much to explore. I’m in it for the long haul.
We are actually travelling to infinity and beyond.
Join me on your mat – we can make this trip together.
Love,
Nina G
