I have gone through most of the mail and email. I have slept a lot and eaten a lot of ice cream. I have returned to teaching. I found that in teaching, the fullness of what a month at RIMYI gives started to shine through. I felt calm and confident, and seemed to see the students with fresh eyes.
My own practice this week has been mostly to rest and reconnect at home. I did have one strong practice day, when I was able to feel some of the effects of a month of intensive study and practice. I noticed a different level of awareness, strength and lightness in my body, and a deeper quiet and steadiness in my mind. I look forward to further exploration! I also look forward to going through my notes, mining them for the jewels that they contain.
Thanks again for all the love and support that I felt as I made this journey.
