Some Karma Yoga

Those of you who know me personally know I teach yoga in my spare time.

But I try to practice all of the time.

My day job is as an occupational therapist.  I work with kids with autism spectrum disorder.

Lots of children I work with find it hard to play, and especially to play with others.

Helping some of them share space and time and finding ways to support play skills is a big part of my day.

This morning I made this box toy.  It was a joyful process.  I did it mindfully and intentionally.

When I gift it to the kids today it will bring joy to me to see them play and explore.  This, too, is the practice of yoga.

What joy can you find in your day?  What can you gift to others?


Much metta,
Samantha
