Human Zoo

Teaching yoga during the University District Street fair gives me an opportunity to practice what I preach. In the midst of upheaval, chaos, and full catastrophe living, yoga gives us tools with which we can remain balanced and centered. When the performing artist started up his amplified show, juggling, singing, making jokes and involving the audience, I led the students in one legged balances and inversions, focusing on our breath.

Going out into the human zoo after teaching, I continued to remain centered. In the throngs of every kind of people, I saw the light radiating from their eyes connecting us. I wanted to pet them, but I knew it was not that kind of zoo.

How centered can you remain amidst the throngs? Can you see the light connecting all of us in this human zoo? Ki to Happiness balances and centers with Hatha Yoga.
