three.hundred.and.eight.

the best thing i heard today was during yoga.

the teacher, who is hands down one of my favourites, told us all to detach. to remove ourselves from everything but our breathing.

when you think about it detaching is an amazing thing.
not for a long time, and not from things that are important, but i think that learning how to detach is good.

so tonight i took an hour to detach.
to worry only about getting from one pose to the next. and breathing.
it was quite possibly, the best thing ever.

i think it's also something that i will take with me to tomorrow.
reminding myself that it's easier than i think to remove myself from situations that feel far more big and stressful than they actually are.

you should all do that too. remember that everything works out.
that things are ok.
as long as you can breath.
cheesy, i know, but it's true.

so turn on some cat stevens (i just bought the greatest hits compilation and can't stop listening) and celebrate the fact that you can detach. especially if you're in toronto and living in the insanity that is rob ford for mayor.

detach. detach away.

just don't tell anyone i told you to do it ;)
