#floint

Did you today is national wiggle your toes day? As yogis, we depend on our toes in our practice. Whether they are rooting into the earth or flying high in the air. The activation of the toe-spread, the ‘floint’, and flexing our feet helps us ground into our mats in standing poses as well as increase our balance while inverted. A lot of people tell me to point my toes or ask why I spread my toes and some have suggested that I’d look more graceful with pointed toes - to each his own. My toes were born to spread, they are my #yogitoes!

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ~ Marianne Williamson One of my all time favorite quotes! www.yogalofthawaii.com
