Are You Knocking on Heaven's Door ?
"...there is no door, there is no knock, there are no answers." - from Knocking on Heaven's Door, By Corie Feiner

For those of you honoring Yom Kippur, this poem comes at a synchronistic time. May “Knocking on Heaven’s Door” serve you well and may we all embody love, learning, forgiveness, and peace.
When I first started practicing yoga, I was confused by Knocking on Heaven’s Door. What did this have to do with yoga, breath, posture, muscles, or even union of mind/body/spirit?
But now that it is a regular part of my practice, I embrace this short time to to surrender and shake off certainty, shoulds and all that gooey seriousness the ego can get attached to.
Before you read the poem, I encourage you to take a conscious breath, close and open your eyes, sit for a moment with the gift of just being, and to read the poem out loud to yourself or to anyone around you….
…. and then maybe get up and dance!
