July News Letter 2017 from Lena Madsen Yoga

June 25th, 2017

Summer has fully arrived and it's time for some rest, rejuvenation and summer fun. I hope that you will claim time for yourself to nurture your heart, soul and body over the next couple of months. It's time to register for my upcoming daylong Yoga retreat at the end of July (see details below), which might be one of the ways you choose to replenish yourself this summer.

Personally I will take a week-long family vacation this upcoming week. I look forward to a week with very few obligations and responsibilities, but with lots of time to enjoy my family, the beach and the ocean. One of my favorite places to be.

I encourage you to look for your own R&R within the framework of your life. There are many ways to do this, but we all have to make it a priority. No one else can do that for us.

"There is virtue in work and there is virtue in rest.

Use both and overlook neither."

The Lotus Flower

The Lotus is one of the most beautiful flowers in the world. It has its roots in the mud, at the bottom of streams and ponds, but rises to bloom above the water without becoming wet or tainted by the mire below. It symbolically represents being fully grounded in earth, yet aspiring towards the divine. For thousands of years the Lotus has symbolized spiritual growth and self realization.
