Early this morning, I was given the opportunity to practice a semi-private StandUp Paddleboard Yoga Session. In itself, this is a blessing and a rare treat. As I was laying blissfully in my final resting pose, slowly letting go of my ocean breath with my palms and feet resting in the water alongside my board, I heard the sound of another breath, not far away, that I recognized to not be human. As our group awoke to our seated position and opened our eyes at the final Namaste, we all witnessed what may be the most beautiful thing I have ever been a part of. A small pod of dolphins was swimming around our boards! Each dolphin came right up next to each of the boards and greeted us with a sideways fin and a friendly spout. They were so close that we could hear their underwater purrs and clicks, and that we could have easily reached out and touched them! What an amazing blessing to experience these incredible animals so closely, and during such a euphoric state of mind. I will never forget it. Namaste
