I can’t. Lol

There’s probably a better way to capture this small bathroom, but this is the best I could do!
Bathroom. Finally.
As promised, please find below the selections from my absurdly beautiful new master bath:
Will probably eventually do a shower door but didn’t bother with it right now. If you look closely the curtain is also herringbone pattern, because I am insane.
Keeping my hair products in little travel bottles because I was deeply offended by the full size ones… LOL. Yes that is Saipua soap. Yes, I will spend $18 on a bar of soap. Speaking of obsessive compulsive check out that herringbone tile design! Nice work Chris the contractor!
Just wish you could see her in person. She’s a beauty.
Seriously unskilled at taking selfies but evidence nonetheless that this is my bathroom
Oh yes I did get those insane divider things for the inside. That remote is for the Bluetooth speaker in the shower. Hollaaaaaa pure jams in here
My favorite verse of the Yoga Sutras from the Mukunda Stiles translation. The pencil marks are from the first time I read it, in early 2012. I love the idea of Spirit as eager, enthusiastic like a puppy, sitting near full of kinetic energy, waiting. It’s a bit heart-wrenching, really, to consider how Spirit might be longing for us to wake up from our slumber. Reminds me of Proverbs 6 but without the Protestant ethic vibe.
Yoga Sutras Project!
Back in November I had an idea so audacious that I knew I would do it - create a yoga sequence for every verse of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The Yoga Sutras are a first century text written by a Bhakti yogi named Patanjali. There are four chapters with a total of 196 verses or aphorisms - short phrases containing great wisdom. By posting one video each week, the project will take about four years.
I have been studying the Yoga Sutras since 2012 when I took my first yoga teacher training with Melissa Montilla at Sanctuary Yoga in Gainesville, FL. She recommended that we use the Mukunda Stiles translation, which I continue to prefer to this day. But I have been growing in interest in the Desikachar translation, found at the end of his book The Heart of Yoga. I especially prefer his explanation of verse 1.1, and I reference it in the first class. I continued to study the sutras under Tara Glazier of Abhaya yoga.
See the yoga tab above for the first video in the series, of admittedly poor video quality, and look for more to come!
