Love and Purpose

Standard
Love, maitri, is a mind that is intent on bringing peace, joy, and happiness to others…
I love this thought by Thich Nhat Hanh.
This is my outlook for today (and every day thereafter.)
With the challenges of Yin Yoga teacher training safely behind me, and back in my ‘real world’ of motherhood, work, appointments, and deadlines, I am reminded yet again of what is really important and how easy it is to put into action.
Yes, of course I am thrilled to teach and to share my knowledge; but I am also happy to offer my presence, humility and love.  Mostly, I am quite happy to be a student of Life – with so many wonderful opportunities to grow, people to meet, and moments where I can be of service to others.
These past days I have made new connections and am reminded to cherish the ones I have.  My blessings are many. I feel happy inside and out and greet today, and every day, with open heart.

About Lu Jong New York - Joelle Kelly

Woman, Mother, Healer, Warrior ... I'm just another student in this classroom called Life. Buddhist, Rebel, Whimsical and Irreverent are some of my traits - but my observations will speak for themselves. I teach Lu Jong Tibetan Yoga (levels 1 & 2) and Tog Chod Wisdom Sword Dance in the lineage of my mentor Tulku Lama Lobsang offering instruction in addition to Teacher Educations. "To believe you are magnificent. And gradually to discover that you are not magnificent. Enough labor for one human life.” ~ Czesław Miłosz
