  1. Thank you so very much!
    Its nice when someone takes minutes.
    I am going to do this sequence either this evening or in the morning tmomrrow, so that it can sequence intelligently in my body and heart, and then I will come back with feedback and whatnot. Just reading through the practice created a deepening of motivation and a sense of devout inspiration.
    Hats off to you guys,
    Shyla
