Watching your friends in their element, truly living and breathing their craft is always a pleasure. Being able to capture it is a privilege, I feel blessed to do what I love. Eriq Troi captivated the audience last night at The Akron Big Love Festival, bringing Bow Tie Willie onstage to take the crowd to another level. #EriqTroiMusic #BowTieWillie #BigLoveAkron #JefJanisPhotography #Akron #OhioPhotographer #BloomingWherePlanted #Nikon #bnw #musician #guitar #music #blackandwhite #bnwmood #pocket_tunes #humanedge #igw_bnw #monochrome #d7100 #rsa_bnw #jj_blackandwhite

Knowing how important it is to connect with the community and how important it is to connect with yourself, this days offers ample opportunities for both. Just read the schedule pictures and you’ll get a good gist as to what this event is all about... Don’t you think we need a festival of love? #bigloveakron #community #cometogetherrightnow #saturdayfunday #downdogma (at Summit Artspace)

Favorite part of yesterday's big love?...the friendships that were strengthened. My second favorite, the silent disco! Three stations for three live dj's -- pick your favorite or bounce back and forth. One young adorable girl I was sharing the dance floor with took off her headsets and said to me, "I can dance to no music!" I took mine off and said "me too!" And we proceeded to dance for a minute or two without our headsets on as we both agreed that the music was really inside of us anyway 🎶. #kidsaremagical #whydowegrowup #downdogma #silentdisco #bigloveakron #reminiscing #grateful (at The Well Community Development Corporation)

"Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning." I know it sounds a little far fetched that a festival called "Big Love" has been a transformational piece of my last few years of growth, but it is true. Not only does the festival host some of the coolest events, classes and performances, but it is hosted by some of the biggest hearted people I know...the people that do not fear the lack of abundance their love is capable of, but instead go "out of their way" to sprinkle that love as far as they can with what little resources they have. Every year I am blown away by Big Love and I know this year will be no exception! Today's peace crane prayer is for light, BIG LOVE and warmth to everyone in attendance (and everyone else for that matter) today. Copy link below into Facebook or go to www.biglovenetwork.us to the Big Love 2017 : Bounce Beyond tab for full schedule. This is an event for all ages : https://www.facebook.com/events/1197445900290734??ti=ia Or just show up from 10am-10pm to the Well CDC at 647 E.

A prayer today for fortitude, persistence and patience to complete the plethora of tasks and responsibilities I need to complete. I must keep reminding myself that I have already laid much of the foundation for so much of this work and that if I maintain my [usually] positive attitude and my vigilance, that things will work out just how they need to. #persistence #patience #fortitude #downdogma #peacecrane2017 #bigloveakron #yogasummit #yogaseva

Be welcomed to my morning altar. . .to my table. I seek to keep this space sacred. I trust that it is safe here, with you. My morning peace crane prayer is to see clearly how I can help things in my world improve. I will learn, create and teach sacred rituals to those looking to connect more deeply to the powerfully divine healing source within themselves💫I will listen to my practice. It will remind me of magic ✨joy 🌻and peace✌🏻 . The beauty is all around. I am open to it and I am willing to put in the work to maintain and even add more beauty to this world 🌎. #shineshamelessly #help #serve #yogasummit #downdogma #bigloveakron #mindfulmorning #mindstrongmonday #myaltar #sacredspace #omasatomasadgamaya

Today's crane is a prayer for truth. This intention came from some conversations with @nick_comsia_someday this morning about last night's #sevacircle and what we learned, loved or thought about it all. It turned into a discussion on sharing YOUR truth, even if you think it may start a 'debate' or a slightly uncomfortable discussion. It's those moments of discomfort that we ten to grow 🌳exponentially from. Again, Chögyam Trungpa hit me with some wisdom today . . . TELL THE TRUTH Truth always works. There always has to be basic honesty; that is the source of trust. When someone sees that you are telling the truth, then they will realize further that you are saying something worthwhile and trustworthy. It always works.//. . .Sometimes telling the truth is very painful to them, but they begin to realize it is the truth, and they appreciate it sooner or later.// It is also important to realize that you don't have to have control over others. You see, that is exactly the truth situation: you do not have all the answers; you are not assuming control over people. Instead, you are trying to tell the truth-in the beginning, in the middle, and at the end.// I would like to see myself communicating through those "uncomfortable" situations, even if that means I fumble and bumble and maybe even mumble my way through them. I would like to show up in those moments with strength of will, faith in the process and TRUST of the people I'm communicating with to help me hold space for truthful, meaningful, compassion-full 😍 connection. I also want this for others. I want this for our community. I want us to speak up. Your voice matters. Make it clear you want, ask for help, support your neighbor and let's make some magic happen! #downdogma #yogasummit #akronpeace #bigloveakron #tyranosaurusrex #sage #atmyaltar #mindfulmorning #truth
