    Invite to Practice Yoga and Gardening

    ByElizabeth May 22, 2023

    I am pleased and excited to announce my first public, in person practice since the inception of the pandemic.  Is it any surprise that this yoga offering is an invitation to the garden, which is a place dedicated to creating and sharing joy, learning, and nourishment throughout the community for over 50 years?

    Come get out into beauty and into your own body and into the dirt on Tuesday, June 6th, from 9 am to 12 pm: at the Washington Youth Garden, on the grounds of the National Arboretum.  After the welcoming yoga practice, we will all join the staff and the regular volunteers (I’m one of them), in the garden.  Throughout the time, I will be available to respond to individual questions about yoga and about optimizing physical alignment/orientation to make it more sustainable to work in the garden, especially for older bodies.  Here’s the link to get more details and to register:   Yoga and Volunteering at the Washington Youth Garden

    Think this sounds great, but you’re hoping for a different time or location, please feel free to reach out.

    State of the Garden

    ByElizabeth May 6, 2023May 6, 2023

    Cardinal eying the baby chard. I really ought to start greens inside. Ganesha looks on. The still exuberant saga in front of him was three times the size. It was not hard to find people who wanted some. I also have been offering lots of mint and yarrow. Locals, let me know any time you want to know what’s available for sharing.

    Altars Around Town

    ByElizabeth May 4, 2023

    These devotional candles were on the fence enclosing a neighbor’s garden. I appreciate the sentiment, and am grateful and have financially supported both.

    I am also moved to ask why it is we put people on pedestals. Could it also be in part a way of letting oneself off the hook for doing what is in our capabilities because only the contributions of those who are more than human have real meaning?

    State of the Garden

    ByElizabeth April 25, 2023April 25, 2023

    Last year I decided to bring this murti of Kuan Yin outside. I asked my neighbor if it was ok, as her parents came here from China, . My neighbor welcomed this presence in the space between our yards and also appreciated that I asked.

    Signs Around Town

    What does it mean to be free? To feel free? To honor other people’s freedom while embracing our own?
