20.01.2022 I recently served as a Warm-Down Marshal at my daughter’s swim meet. Don’t let the title fool youit sounds way more impressive than it actually is. I signed... up for one reason and one reason only: to watch my 17-year-old daughter swim. Due to the pandemic, there are no spectators allowed at swim meets; volunteering is your only way in. Sign me up. When I arrived at the aquatic center, I was given an official neon yellow vest. It was just about as stylish as the fanny pack I wore around my waist. I was then told of my duties: Stand by the warm-down pool, and make sure the swimmers stay six feet apart. And if you see a swimmer walk by without a mask, ask them to put it on. I breathed a sigh of relief. No numbers, no math, no earth-shattering responsibilities, just observing. I love observing. As I watched the swimmers exit the competition pool after their first event, I wondered how many would skip the warm down. I mean, I don’t know about you, but after swimming 200 yards as fast as humanly possible, I’d be eager to get to my towel and the fortifying snacks I brought along. But the swimmers didn’t skip the warm down. Not one of them. I watched the swimmers glide through the water with long, easy strokes. Some eventually rested their arms, gently kicking on their backs, eyes fixed to the ceiling as if it were a sky full of stars. Suddenly, a thought occurred to me: What am I supposed to see here today? Afterall, I’m filling a role that didn’t even exist until the pandemic came along and changed everything. I snapped a selfie in the neon vest. I figured they weren’t going to let me keep it, and I wanted to remember my observations as Warm-Down Marshal of 2020. A few days later, as I was preparing to work, I stopped. I stopped in the middle of everything I was supposed to be doing to write the most unusual letters I’ve ever written. To the teachers of my middle school daughter, I found myself apologizing for the change in her this past year and to thank them for not giving up, for going above and beyond to keep her from drowning. Oddly, I didn’t cry typing those words. I didn’t rush to get them over with. I didn't worry about perfect delivery. I just let it all out. Next, I wrote a testimonial. My therapist for the past eight months asked me if I would. Who am I to write a testimonial when my healing is far from over? I thought skeptically. But as I put pen to paper, the words poured out. Yes, the work isn’t over; she didn’t cure me, but she believed in meand because of that, I’m in a place I never thought I could be. And finally, I wrote to a friend to tell her of the void she’s filled in my life. Words I’d tried to say to her throughout 2020 found their way to paper. I’d been ashamed to tell her that someone had walked out on meand she had stepped in. She needed to know. As hard as it was to do these exercises, they were cathartic. Sure, I could’ve skipped them, but then that tightness in my chest from navigating these deep waters would still be there. Sure, I could’ve skipped them, but then the ache in my muscles from failing to acknowledge those who kept me afloat would still remain. I now know why I had the honor of being a Warm-Down Marshal at the end of this grueling season: I have a message for those who can't wait to burst through the shiny door that says 2021 and never look back. And that message is this: Don’t skip the final and possibly most important exercise of 2020 The processing, the stretching, the return to breathing as normal as possible. My final exercise of 2020 was acknowledging what was and it was not pretty, and it is not over, but I made it through territories I didn’t know I could. I don’t know what your 2020 warm down will look like, and at this point, you probably don’t either. But with this awareness, you will recognize it when it comes. As you navigate the final days of 2020, something will stop you, and you will sit down, and you will not rush, and you will let it all out. In this departure from a normal holiday, there is time to see the strength in yourself and in those who cheered as you kept swimming. The Warm Down of 2020 please don’t skip it. You might just find that there, floating on your back, an ordinary ceiling looks like a sky of stars because you just endured the hardest race of your life.

Who knows it might motivate you to get into the swing of it, try some of my fun ideas, it can be as easy or as hard as you like. I am encouraging you to join in with me, each day I will post a Yoga "Guide". Lets get you started and if you already have started, Love to hear comments and ideas from you as well. Tonight when the moon is up, step outside and take 3 deep breaths, look up and just notice, what do I see? what can I feel? can you smell some spring flowers? Check in to the present moment.

14.01.2022 These are actual Lotus flowers I got to witness up in the Northern Territory - so beautiful xox Tonights topic, "Even Yogi's get the blues sometimes" we talked about some key points to help lift our spirits - Changing our perspective, knowing that this mood will pass, sometimes we just need a little exercise to shift our mood.... and we talked about the "Flower of Light" The symbol of the lotus flower - Lush with petals, lotus flowers grow in shallow ponds and muddy rivers ...surrounded by lily pads, clusters of large waxy leaves that float on the tope of water. These flowers open and close with the cycle of the sun. We chatted about at night, the blossoms close and retreat below the surface of the water. Each morning, the pointed tip of the flower breaks the muddy surface of the water and opens its face to the sun as a beautiful flower..... They all agreed to get a good night sleep tonight xox If you have any questions or would like to find out more about my classes please message me for details! Danni

09.01.2022 Beecroft Guides Annual food collection Each year as many of you know Beecroft Guides in partnership with North Ryde Community Aid, collect food and personal items for those in our community who are struggling. Thanks to your generosity one Wednesday at the end of November we usually manage to collect over a 1000 items in just 2 hours. This year we want to continue the tradition in a COVID safe manner. As well as our house to house collection on the night of 25th November, we... will put a large plastic bin outside the Guide Hall in The Crescent each Wednesday in November between 7 and 8.30pm. Please don't leave items outside of these times as there will be no-one around to store them safely. The list of items Community Aid are requesting has changed, see the list attached. This is to help make the hampers extra special in 2020.
