How to Make Lavender Water
Lavender water is so refreshing and it’s long-lasting. It can be used to freshen up the air or try spraying it on your yoga mat or bed sheets. It can even be used to spritz your clothes while ironing. I like to keep a small bottle in my car for cooling off on hot days. Lavender water is for external use only. Do not spray into eyes or other sensitive areas.
Lavender oil has a calming and soothing effect and can relieve tension. It can be effective for headaches and insomnia too. Did you know it also has antibacterial qualities?

Advice from a Tree
What an opportunity to experience yoga’s tree pose (Vriksasana) while absorbing the energy from the trunk of this tree. What a powerful experience to feel into the roots of this tree, to reflect on its life, and to stand where it stood for so many years. It seemed perfect to pair the photo with “the advice from a tree.” from ‘anon.’ Learn the tree pose below.
stand tall and proud
go out on a limb
remember your roots
drink plenty of water
be content with your natural beauty
enjoy the view
And I’d like to add…
bask in the sun
don’t mind the clouds
provide shelter for birds, squirrels, and other creatures
go with the winds that are blowing through your life
climb a tree once in a while
Practice yoga’s tree pose (vrksasana) to gain balance, core strength, humility, centering, and self-acceptance.
Stand tall. Balance your weight equally on both feet in mountain pose (tadasana). Put your hands on your hips. Breathe. Raise your right foot and press it into the inside of your left leg either above or below the knee. Steady your gaze. Raise your arms up like branches. Wobbling is normal and helpful. Hold for several breaths and repeat on the other side. See the picture above.

Blue Moon Rising CD has released!!
Miracles do happen! Synchronicity too!
The Blue Moon of August set the scene for the recording of my newest CD. This one features 16 beautiful tracks played on the Native American style flute with the sounds of Mother Nature as the backdrop.
The Blue Moon was the day I got a brand new wooden flute from Joseph Whitefeather and Sage Mato. The flute is beautiful and has the most amazing sound. He promised me that it is a healer. He was right! What a welcome surprise it was when the flute music began pouring out of me like a waterfall, so naturally and easily. It had healed me from the remnants of fear and doubt that had plagued my musicality since I was a kid. I felt so happy.
I played the flute during my yoga classes the first chance I got. Folks really appreciated how relaxing it was and commented on its healing sound. Quite a few encouraged me to make a recording so they could enjoy it whenever and wherever they want. Here is what is happening. Marilyn listens to it in her truck. Diana plays it when she gives a massage. Mary listens to it on her daily walk, Susan and her daughter listen on their way to school, several play it before bed, and Kate said that not only does she like it, her dog does too.
To celebrate, Blue Moon Rising is on sale until Nov. 15. Why wait?
