Contentment, not complacency

A soft sense of contentment moved all through my being as I unlocked the studio door this morning; a feeling of, "mmmm .... this is so good."
I often have that feeling when I head to the studio, when I am planning a class, or doing my practice. Walking into the studio, I experience the positive energy of all of those who have practiced here, learned here, and taught here. I sense their positive intentions and creative energy which now permeates every corner of this space; there is knowledge and love and music and resonant vibration that seeps into the very air we breathe due to the presence of these amazing beings. I sense that, through the years, the levels of prana have intensified and become part of the very fabric of each bolster, blanket, and block; we contribute to the practice of one another even after we have gone for the day.
There is a sense of the hard work that went into developing this sacred place, and the understanding that we are continuing to work and grow and transform day after day as we step through that door. Contentment, not complacency, lives here; I love this feeling, I cannot wait to return.
