It Takes a Village

As my dear friend AnneMarie said to me recently, I'm spinning like a top lately. We all seem to be. Is it that it's going to be 95 degrees in Phoenix this weekend, so we're all scattering like ants about to be scorched? Is it the swarm of spring breakers here, so traffic is unrelenting lately?

Except it's not just confined to Phoenix. Life seems to be moving at breakneck speed for just about everyone I know, and suddenly I'm thrown back to Quinn's statement that we are "the busiest people EVER" and reminded that I need to slow things down a bit. I need to relax. I need to breathe.

Just as soon as I've gotten everything ready for this silent auction and yoga event on Saturday. (Will you be there?)

I'm so looking forward to being able to practice alongside the lovely Jenn Chiarelli and this entire community -- my village -- that has bolstered me up over and over again over the past several years.

Many local and regional businesses, artists, designers, healers, and yoga practitioners have donated their goods and services to make this event a huge success. I feel confident saying that before it even happens, and I wish there was a way all of you could come participate, too. I promise to take lots of photos and do my best to sum up the day while I'm still basking in the glow of it early next week.

To all of you who've donated, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. Or as I'll be saying on Saturday, namaste: I bow to the divine in each of you.
