Shalem Yoga Winter Ponderings
Epiphany to Lent
Transition
In winter, yin yogis tend to spend time in the fetal posture. We curl up. We slow down. In TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) this is a posture of beginnings, endings and water. For me, I see waiting and transitioning in this posture - not sure what is beginning, maybe mourning what is ending. Winter brings us the perfect scene to “Be still and know God is God” translation of Psalm 46:10a. We are not the Creator / Planner / Director / Judge. But there is a God and he knows. Take heart, there is a resurrection. Amen.

Hidden Kingdom Work
A group of amazing women showed up at PTM-McGruder a winter Tuesday morning to clean. These women scrubbed, mopped, wiped, vacuumed and were willing to do the dirty work. A big thank you to those who sent supplies and who showered PTM-McGruder with new games and after-school items! Kingdom work🙌🏼
