Encinitas Part II
In exactly one month from today, I leave for teacher training in SoCal. I am a little axious about the whole trip. I am not nervous about the workshop itself rather it's about being away from my husband and children for 2 weeks. That is a long time. Outside of going to NYC for Guruji's tour in 2005 and 2006 for a few days, I have never been away from them for that long. Of course, I try to rationalize it and state that at least I am not going to India for 6 weeks.
It will be so odd to step outside of my daily life. Here, every morning I go to mysore at 5:30am so that I can get home and get my kids off to school and hang out with my 4 year old. I have consciously tried to not let the practice interfere with my children's lives. (Except for Sundays when a group of us go for tea after practice). So, I am having a hard time not feeling guilty about flying across the country for 14 days of yoga. For me, this whole practice has been about stepping outside of my box and following a path. I guess this is just another one of those layers being peeled away.
Thanks to T & J for the advice and photos. I have my accomodations already I just have no idea of where to get the best chai, orgainics, local best kept secrets or must sees in the area, etc. I imagine that I will not have a lot of free time to explore but welcome any insider advice or tips.

Hmmm...lol best chai? organics? I don't think I even know that information! I can tell you some damn good eats though! Encinitas/Leucadia is a great crunchy granola area...when you get here, just ask some of us locals. While I can't direct you to a homeopathic place, I can direct you to the best boutiques for clothes...not to mention some great healthy eats.
what area are you staying in?
