What Is Fall?

October 6, 2014 By Heather Blackmon

.

Fall

We are to weeks into the third season of the year. There are those that are thrilled with the chill in the air after a hot summer. Some are focused on cheering on their favorite team. Others are eating all the apples and pumpkins that can be found.

For me, Fall is the smell of a warm fire crackling.

The changing of leaves on a crisp, cool morning.

A tart apple, sometimes turned into a good cider. I have always thought that cider was a “girl’s drink”. Not good, just a sweet drink. I’m so happy to have been proven wrong this year. Cider can be fantastic!

Or a warm, bourbon drink on a cold evening.

More time spent outside, because it’s not too hot and not too cold.

It’s nature showing off the best colors of the year.

It’s beer festival season.

And time to enjoy friendship (and marriage).

It really is my favorite season of the year.

Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸 But reall Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸

But really, keep your gaze straight ahead to keep your neck safe in bridge (or Setu Bandha Sarvangasana). It's rare that a version of this pose isn't included during cooldown in my classes.

Do you love bridge as much as I do?

"Every ending is a beginning. We just don't know i "Every ending is a beginning. We just don't know it at the time." -Mitch Albom

Last Friday, we ventured to a trail near Carbondale for the most beautiful ride with huge wildflowers everywhere. It was a great trail with good climbing, plenty of flow in the middle, and A LOT of switchbacks on the descent. Our first 2 hour ride of the season and it was a blast!

I didn't know it at the time, but it was also the last ride on my Liv mountain bike - because I got a new bike on Sunday! ✨

If you're in Colorado & in the market for a new bike, I highly recommend Over The Edge in Fruita. I test rode 6 bikes & then took the Pivot Mach 5.5 out on the trail to be sure it was the right one. Great experience!!

Which quote is more how you feel about yoga today? Which quote is more how you feel about yoga today? ⬇️

A - “Yoga is the perfect opportunity to be curious about who you are.” —Jason Crandell

B - “Sometimes in yoga I feel like a graceful swan. Other times I feel like a baby giraffe trying to use its legs.” Anonymous

I've definately felt both of these at different times. 😜

No matter what your answer, if you're in the Vail Valley - come practice with me!

I'm back to my normal schedule this week with 2 chances to flow every Thursday:
✨ 12pm Gravity Haus (Vail)
✨ 5:30pm Vitality Collective (Eagle)
