Walk With Me to Yoga ... with an eye to notice

in #walkwithme6 years ago

When I stepped out the front door on this hazy morning I fully expected to be headed off to yoga as I had every other Tuesday morning for the past 2 years.

Freddie had reluctantly bid me goodbye at the front door as I took off with my yoga mat & bag. I knew I could make it over to the Fitness Center in 5.75 minutes if I hustled.

But today I decided to slow it down a bit and just "notice" what was around me. I'd take some pictures for Steemit and take in what awaited me on this brief walk. And here's what I found.

Some beautiful morning clouds above the rooftops

Magnificent cypress trees that line most of the streets of our little development.

Fall leaves instead of snow under my feet.

Actually, where I live in California the "fall colors" go from green to khaki. So there's not much of a chance to revel in the colors. But it's in the dead of winter when leaves are still crunching under my feet that I really appreciate them.

Even noticing the damaged trees from a storm a few months ago has caused me to pause a bit this morning.



Well, it took me an extra couple of seconds to get to my destination - but it was worth it.

And I'm here. Thanks for walking with me. Undoubtedly you'll be walking somewhere today. I hope you can take time to notice. See you next time!

Yes, Freddie's a cutie. We've just had him a year (rescue). He needs a little yoga in his life tho. Wire Fox Terriers are busy, busy!

Those cypress trees are breathtaking!! Thank you so much for taking us out with you, you're lucky to be living in such a mild place :) :) :) :)

Especially this time of year! But sometimes I do miss seasons.

My favorite thing about becoming more aware of myself and surroundings is how prevalent beauty is around us. Lucky to have a space to do some community yoga!

Also, your pup might just be one of the cutest! His fur is incredible, like a little sheep
