I wanna take her climbing....!

In class last night, our teacher was talking about the beauty of the way that yoga requires us to focus and brings us into the present moment. Our teacher described how you can't be thinking about ten different things when you are attempting an advanced pose.

Presence is often hard for me as I have one of those minds that likes to go crazy with thoughts, worries, ideas, and everything else. However, I desire presence and am therefore drawn to things that bring me here to this moment.

After class Marc made a comment about how he liked the presence concept. Then he said, "I want to take her climbing!!!!!"

I agree. You can't be thinking about anything else when you are making an exposed traverse on a sustained climb or jamming your hands in a crack and muscling your way up.
