The birth of Jesus.  Society takes us away from that wonderful story.  It’s not a time for Santa and maximize our credit cards looking for the best sale around.  It’s celebrating the birth of a savior.  Yes, we can celebrate by exchanging gifts but we should not loose tract of where that tradition began.  To me the angel appearing to Mary telling of the birth of a son.  And the three wise men following a bright star bringing gifts of Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh is where I am in wonder.  Maybe because in my studies of Massage Therapy I studied and absolutely love Essential Oils.  Or maybe because of being a bit nostalgic at this time of the year, who knows why, it doesn’t matter.  I prefer to think of the original story rather than frenzy about overspending, and over stimulating our nervous system, pretending that all is well.  It’s me, a Yogini hoping you too can see Christmas for what it truly is.  The children love the real story, and they are the ones we love and want to please. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas, with love and light.
