I’ve been sharing about surfing with Church when I was recently in Maui, and here he is, eager to ride the waves with an eager sparkle in his eyes! 🤩 He embodied equanimity and FUN, balancing with ease, walking up and down the board, not phased by the waves or my wobbles. Church reminded me how an easeful way of being is so impactful and contagious. In total sensory mode he was so present, just one with the board, the waves and me...and, he totally put me in the zone riding the waves! 🏄♀️ This K9 surf instructor and emotional support dog is an amazing teacher, of surfing and life! Super grateful for this amazing experience!! So now you know who/what I’m talking about when you hear me say “Be like Church, surfing with your tongue hanging out!” 😎🌊 🐶 @churchsurfs . 📷 @thesunkissedlens . #equanimity #yoga #yogaoffthemat #lifelessons #surfing #surferdog #emotionalsupportdog #kihei #maui #balance #fun #adventure #belikechurch #oceanlife #oceanlover #naturegirl #createthelifeyoulove #soulshine #whybaptisteyoga #tbt #throwbackthursday#inspired #inspiration #tuesdaymotivation #beuptosomethingbiggerthanyourself #youarestrongerthanyouthink #commitment #dedication #nevergiveup #bostonmarathon .

Their beauty lies in accepting this fact and still desiring to learn and grow.” - Paul Coelho . I am a warrior of light. I strive to embody the spirit of a yoga warrior, to flow through life with intention, to be non-reactive and neutral when confronted with opposition and to speak and take action to uphold values I believe support the highest good. As a humble warrior I acknowledge what knocks me off center, and I forgive myself and others. As a resilient warrior, I learn and grow, then reset and begin again, with compassion and self-acceptance. As a playful warrior I aim to spark joy in myself and others. As a loving warrior I cultivate emotional, spiritual, and physical connection, to self and others, and create deep community with a foundation of trust, integrity, acceptance, belonging and compassion...we are all connected. As an inspirational warrior I choose to live my best life, to be up to something bigger than myself, to serve God, and to empower others to discover their dharma, their sacred purpose, and live fully expressed as their unique, multi-faceted warrior. Namaste 🙏🏽 . . #mondaymotivation #quoteoftheday #inspiration #paulcoelho #liveonpurpose #createthelifeyouwant #dharma #beuptosomethingbiggerthanyourself #weareallconnected #yoga #crescentlunge #anjaneyasana #meditation #warrior #warrioroflight #whybaptisteyoga #fittolead #fittolead2018 #balance #strength #freedom #power #vitality #equanimity #warriorlife #liveyourbestlife @baptisteyoga
