According to Buddha
The goal of yoga science is to calm the mind, that without distortion it may hear the infallible counsel of the inner voice.

‘The inner voice’, guides the head and heart well.
listen attentively
timely photos Hedy, did you wear gloves when you took these?
I have little warmers inside my mitts but I did remove them for as long as I could to snap…it was very fresh -30 not sure my little black box liked it much either but it was a good walk in a different space with a foto friend…😷 walking 🚶♀️ 🚶♂️ 🥶😂 we had fun Eddie!
Got to love those days!
I’m grateful for friends too❣️
Those are fantastic. I’m partial to the beaver.

Wonderful images

Oh, thse are just beautiful, Hedy. Have a great week.
Thank you kindly Chris…yes it will be a fresh week…delicious sunshine-41🤪back to my yoga mat! have a joyful and productive week too ~ smiles hedy ☺️💫
magnificent art.
They were very beautiful Gavin and nice to see them in a park … even they were all physically distanced … few humans it’s into the -38 here tomorrow very fresh indeed 🌬❄️🥶 hoping your enjoying summery days ~ smiles your way hedy 💫😀
Knowing smiles of yoga calm know the essence of beauty so well captured in beauty Hedy!!
Nice!❤️
I feel best with some routine and yoga has been a long standing practice for me…learning to be self disciplined about “doing” it is harder…I do miss my teachers but I’m enjoy the zoom/YouTube yoga more now…it’s been nearly a year now 🤦♀️🙃🙂 great time to be alive! happy Wednesday Cindy ~ smiles and joy hedy ☺️💫
It’s so awesome you have maintained your practice on zoom. I did drop ins occasionally when I was teaching live and thought I would do more zoom for me not just for teaching but it’s so busy. I do my own mini yoga everyday and then my class. So weird. I miss the students that don’t like zoom.
Happy Wed to you to Hedy!!♥️💕🌸
Ice critters … hopefully they have not shown any signs of melt.
not a thing melted this week….-40 to -30 it’s fresh! have a happy weekend David ~ smiles hedy ☺️💫
Inner voice? I/eye see what you mean. Finished your book. loved it. tells a lot about you. I will lend it to daughter #2. She should enjoy it.
Smiles.

☺️🙏🙂thanks kindly Brian…appreciated! have a good day ~ hugs hedy ☺️🤗
Hugs back. Tot ziens, Hedy.
Tot ziens…i want to go to the Netherlands very much now….sigh ☺️
I can imagine.
“We don’t need another hero…” true, but maybe we need another story?
I don’t know….but yes telling and retelling matters…being heard and listening also matter, you know that though Brian ~ sending you joy ☺️💫
To listen and be heard… Yes. Recently I have thought a lot about a teacher of mine in Grad school. He was from Chicago. An accent not so different from some Canadians. He taught us many things, including 3 fundamentals: 1) Cognitive dissonance. 2) Milgram’s submission to authority. 3) Bureaupathology, how any bureaucracy eventually becomes a pathology. 3 keys to understand the world…
Joy back.
nice, right eh☺️🤓 🙂🙃
Like I said, I liked the book. De-(re?)-constructed? I “missed” Derrida and others. Lacan was not even strong when I went to College and Grad school. Spanned the 70’s with breaks in between.
I’m sure your research helped you be a better educator… 👏🏻
and yet all the ‘ists’ and ‘isms’ are little boxes…I do love lingering in those thoughts though…I throughly enjoyed teaching…students were the best!
Very true about little boxes… One must avoid them. (Just as I avoid ideologies, as devoid of ideas!) 😉
Students must be rewarding.
And your mention of calling your father reminded me how important he was.
Again: thank you for the book. 📖
I miss him…I loved him very much… thank you for reading it Brian…that’s very kind of you 🙏🤗❣️ hugs hedy
He led a long happy life didn’t he? And remember the ancient Greeks. They considered one could live “forever”, as long as one’s name was still remembered. My grandfather died in ’67. He will live on until my elder brother and I live. Remind me your father’s name? Hugs back
Anton. ☺️
I will remember… 🙏🏻
Sort of de-constructed my comments here. 😉
Wonderful narrative of how Humankind makes the best of the hardest circumstances: turn – freezing – ice into Art. Art that I/eye can see… 👁
jajajajaja…deconstruction and rebuild right 🤓it was brutal cold…I’m no longer enjoying this -40 stuff…along with lockdown of a year…I’m ready to fly ☺️💫 I know I know….patience is a virtue….my father use to make ice sculptures…nice memory for me ☺️ smiles Brian happy weekending 💫
-40 is beyond me. I just couldn’t.
Your father did ice sculpture? How wonderful. And I can imagine it brings back many memories. Sweet hopefully. 🧊
Likewise “Bon Dimanche”
summer this week 😉 it’s improving it’s tiring at this point…but spring will come it always does 💐
Very true. And it is closer now. 🌼
That is quite amazing, Hedy. Thank you for getting out into that cold to make these. I like the closeups a lot – they really have the look of carved crystal.
it was fast and very fresh…stinging kind of cold…I’m not sure I like it all that much 🤦♀️ but thoroughly enjoyed a much needed walk. it’s warming thank goodness 💫
🙂 Stay warm when you can!
I also have the hand warmers called ‘little hotties’ they are toasty 🤩
I have those and some toe warmers but I ALWAYS forget to bring them! I think some are even in the car door but I’m just not in the habit of using them. Of course, if I lived in E-town that would change fast!! 😉
they have expiry dates…so I use them frequently…yup…I got the Costco size box of them 🙄😂 they work.
