Day Six Adventure: Peaches in the rain~
A sweet return to your wild child.

Over the summer I was teaching a beach yoga class, it began to lightly drizzle. Always, wanting my students to have a fulfilling experience, I was instantly so concerned with the reaction from the students. Did they want to leave immediately, was it refreshing due to the heat of the day? What about their hair? Will the rain get steadier and include thunder and lightning? Then I remembered the most pleasant memory, when I was a young (tomboy) girl- During the summer, I absolutely LOVED eating peaches while walking, running and dancing  in the rain. What better way to eat these sweet, juicy summer gifts. Taking a bite of the peach and watching the juice run down my arm as it mixed with the cool rain. Damn- that is a great childhood memory. I shared this story with the class and without realizing I asked out loud, “Why did I ever stop?” All 17 students stayed and practiced with me in the rain and they LOVED it- “That was refreshing” That was invigorating and liberating.” “I felt like a kid again” are some of the  comments I received. Delish!

So, your challenge today is: Go eat peaches in the rain. Feel the sprinkle of water on your face,
​taste the sweetness of the peach, splash in the water- Get Wet Get Wild.
