POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Join us for our fourth year retreating to pristine south Crete, where the sea, sun, sky, stars, rocks, sand, and wind remind us of who we really are. The perfect place to meet yourself in Jivamukti yoga practice, meditation, breathwork, singing, and somatic practices from the Alexander technique and natural vision improvement, along with like-minded friends to make memories for a lifetime.

Mornings hold a long practice together, followed by relaxed lunch at our seaside communal table. Afternoons are for beach adventure, rock jumping, walks in the picturesque Cretan hills, coffee with the endless horizon, or maybe just a poolside nap. Evenings are for Satsang, as we sing the sun down into the sea in front of us. Monday is full moon and the view of it rising around sunset over the Lybian sea will itself be worth the trip!

If you’ve been waiting for the right time, it is now. This year you will begin the dark season with your inner light and insight clear and bright to see your life with clarity and purpose.

I would love to welcome you to the best place I know, to do my favorite things together

Morning with Jivamukti yoga, natural vision improvement, and Alexander technique, glorious fresh local Greek food at our huge communal table always looking at and hearing the sea, evenings singing as the sun sets into the sea right in front of us. Walking along the unspoiled beaches will clear away everything that doesn’t matter and bring you back to who you are. Join us! Link in bio

My dad turns 80 today. He hates social media and would complain about me making this post. Part of our relationship has always involved irritating each other. I’ve learned so much from having someone I can antagonize, and who will give it right back without the love and care ever diminishing. Salty and sentimental, my dad extolls the virtues of my mom, swears like the Brooklyn native he is, and will recite mystical Irish poetry at the slightest provocation. He gave me his colorful and vast vocabulary as well as his love of beauty, both high and low. Taught me to drive on the New Jersey Turnpike, about wine and whiskey, baseball and poker, literature and cities. He also demonstrated how not to suffer fools but that everyone is always worthy of respect and dignity. He holds doors, coats, and bags, and is generous with both compliments and criticism. My best editor, trustworthy advisor, and a damn good man, my dad.

If you asked me 10 years ago about this guy at 80, I would not have been sanguine, but as the eternal optimist he is, my dad managed to have bypass surgery during the pandemic and emerge like some sort of mutton-chopped Energizer bunny, ready for at least 12 more rounds. I hope the old man (as we call him) will make it to 100, that he sees his beloved grandchildren grow to adulthood and thrive, and that we will take many, many more selfies together.

Please join me in wishing him a happy birthday and many returns of the day. by @tararosesullivan

oin us for our fourth year retreating to pristine south Crete, where the sea, sun, sky, stars, rocks, sand, and wind remind us of who we really are. The perfect place to meet yourself in Jivamukti yoga practice, meditation, breathwork, singing, and somatic practices from the Alexander technique and natural vision improvement, along with like-minded friends to make memories for a lifetime.

Mornings hold a long and varied practice together, followed by relaxed lunch at our seaside communal table. Afternoons are for beach adventure, rock jumping, walks in the picturesque Cretan hills, coffee with the endless horizon, or maybe just a poolside nap. Evenings are for Satsang, as we sing the sun down into the sea in front of us. Cretan sunsets are legendary this time of year. Monday is full moon and the view of it rising around sunset over the Lybian sea will itself be worth the trip!

If you’ve been waiting for the right time, it is now. Deepen and clarify your senses and re-ignite your vision to prepare for the winter ahead.

After 24 hours actually
I have forgotten
the overwhelm
the irrelevant
the noise (inner and outer)
the anxiety

And remembered
Insight
Ease
Synchronicity
Strength
Abundance and beauty
Who I am

Thanks @llama.yoga for this great picture.

If you know me, you know I don’t take pictures during practice (unless there’s.a bird out the window). When I’m doing something so meaningful, I’m not thinking about how to tell someone how cool the thing I’m doing was.

Maybe you’d like to drop into this timelessness with us.

To paraphrase John Lennon, life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans.

One year ago, my best friend, Deborah Joy, passed away gracefully after a short and brutal bout of cancer. After decades of friendship, I always thought we would grow old together. In fact it was part of my plan.

Mornings with Jivamukti yoga, Alexander Technique, the art fo breathing, natural vision improvement, and all the things that have influenced my life and teaching - finally time to explore together. Afternoons are for miles of unspoiled beaches, enjoying the most perfect nature, or a coffee accompanied by the sound of the sea. Evenings are to sing together while the sun sets into the sea directly in front of us - paradise. The stars pop out while we enjoy glorious local Cretan food (plant based) lovingly prepared by our family of hosts.

You will have that insight you've been needing.

I’m touched by this second podcast with my friend, colleague, and teacher Peter Grunwald. We discuss the Eyebody book, our first true collaboration, and the history of Peter’s work including the roots of some of my deepest and most meaningful relationships. Then we get close to the third rail, where we talk about Berlin and my vision for teaching yoga in a fully multi-sensory way. Lots of friends mentioned here, please listen and drop a comment!
