Dear Yogis,
It has been an unusual weekend.. raining almost non-stop, dark, grey. I tried to get enthused by writing, painting, and in the end I got on top of things I just had to complete, then I played around with cards, and T-Bag cards (I am very low on cards at the gallery) and began a project to add seeds to the cards, so if you bought a card with a dandelion on the front, you could plant the tea bag afterwards and the seeds would grow!
I also finished the book THE SALT PATH last night. I had read snippets of it (had resisted the film) but the book turned up at the op-shop. It was quite an inspiring story. I think that the couple had been in love with each other since they first met, and now retired, that passionate love had not dimmed and it was this strong emotion, this caring for each other, that carried them through situations that we really can’t imagine going through ourselves..
The Yoga Classes are going well, people signing up, but on the other hand we are coming in to winter, and around here, people disappear when the weather gets colder. I wonder if increased prices will change that? Somehow I don’t think so. It is the “now or never” point of view.

NAMASTE – JAHNE
Before I watched the program, I started this doll – BE KIND… It was a message to me, and I hope it will be a message to you. I will do more dolls with a message – a small thing making the dolls super meaningful to me. Dolls in support of kindness, compassion, hope.
