hello handstand!!

when that burden
on my shoulders has been lifted
and has fallen down all around me;
then does my heart loosen,
and soften,
and unhinge itself from the trappings of fear and longing.

then do i feel the entirety of grace,
and am absolutely surprised to find myself standing
perfectly on my own two hands!

  1. Handstand pose can be scary and I definitely paid the price of trying it before I was ready. I saw Leeann Carey’s free yoga video with pointers on handstand that really helped & now I can do the handstand pose!
