seven chakras shocking { the 12 days of yoga }
On the 20th day of December, yoga gave to me
seven chakras shocking…
{ three third eyes }
{ two turtle yogis }
{ and a yogini in the pose tree. }
Our subtle bodies are buzzing with life force energy. You know when you drag your Ho Ho Ho Santa socks across the carpet and touch something metallic and ZAPOOOO!!!? Our chakras carry/harness/process energy a gazillion times that. Shocking, I know. That’s how Einstein got his awesome hairdo and tapped in to pure consciousness; genius. His chakras were crackalackin.’ That, and he wore red Ho Ho Ho socks like mine.
Chakra Cookies!

Love the cookies. I’m just learning about the chakras but your quotes had me cracking up.
Somehow the Ajna chakra cookie reminds me of Stevie Nicks…
Your Chakra post is way better than mine. I liked your use of lyrics, good tune references. I’m looking forward to day 8.
Haha, I LOVE your chakra gingerbread people!! :)
Didn’t realize how much the chakras stimulated my sweet tooth….so creative!!!
I have loved seeing all your cookies! I am feeling inspired to do some baking! Thanks for sharing! :)
And who said that playing with your food couldn’t be educational! I doubt that I’d be able to make gingerbread cookies look nearly that good. But I do have a good recipe.
LOVE your 12 days of yoga… these are my favorite yet!
