Lately I've been reminded of not only the importance of sitting with my breath, but also the importance of mindful movement.

Animals seem to know this instinctively. And maybe we human animals know it too.

Perhaps stretching physically can also help remind us to stretch ourselves in other areas of life.  To go out of our comfort zone and grow a little - creatively, spiritually, emotionally and compassionately.  This little fox came today to remind us all....s-t-r-e-t-c-h!!!!
