As conversations continue around the Giving Market ideas, it’s time to move beyond the Giving theme here in the weblog. My attention starts to take on all of the large and small details involved in moving to London for as much of a year as I am able. Primary focus is bouncing around Giving conversations, coaching models, travel logistics and some really wonderful things happening in my personal and practice lives.
London logistics are getting to the point of taking apart houses and selling cars, starting to sort through files and box things up. As the cars both sold last week, I have gladly returned to my bicycle for transportation. Then over the weekend, my sister Theresa led me through a couple of excellent private sessions at her yoga studio in Urbana. I’m getting ready to leave my routines at the gym across the street and dusting off yoga routines I can take with me as I travel.
Riding up North Avenue this morning, I caught myself relishing the sense of personal power that I get from biking and yoga. How strange and reassuring that a decision to uproot almost everything and move across an ocean can turn out to be so grounding.
