"Praise The Rain" by Joy Harjo

Praise the rain; the seagull dive
The curl of plant, the raven talk—
Praise the hurt, the house slack
The stand of trees, the dignity—
Praise the dark, the moon cradle
The sky fall, the bear sleep—
Praise the mist, the warrior name
The earth eclipse, the fired leap—
Praise the backwards, upward sky
The baby cry, the spirit food—
Praise canoe, the fish rush
The hole for frog, the upside-down—
Praise the day, the cloud cup
The mind flat, forget it all—

Praise crazy. Praise sad.
Praise the path on which we're led.
Praise the roads on earth and water.
Praise the eater and the eaten.
Praise beginnings; praise the end.
Praise the song and praise the singer.

Praise the rain; it brings more rain.
Praise the rain; it brings more rain.

Elayna Caron

Elayna is a body worker, energy holder, and yoga teacher. Over the last ten years Elayna has been exploring how bodies hold grief, history, and pain and how best to support those bodies. With a background in hatha yoga, trauma informed yoga, and vinyasa, Elayna's classes are a slow burn of gentle movement. Classes aim to address the whole person, from the fascia, to joints, to breath, to the energetic body. As a queer body worker, Elayna is passionate about creating space for ALL bodies. With experience working with the elderly and dying all the way to young children, there is space in the Elayna's classes for all bodies, all levels of experience, and all abilities to get into their bodies and get grounded. Off the mat, Elayna spends her time elbow deep in the soil, worshiping her two cats, and studying the body. You can find her on instagram @elaynalcaron to see her movement offerings.
