Edward Hopper "Carolina Morning"
In the sweetness of summer's long-lit days, it seems that we actually have more time. Perhaps this--in addition to the influence of warm, humid weather--is why we are more willing to allow ourselves permission to slow down and relax in summer. In this season I often feel nostalgic for my childhood, and as a child, summer feels endless. I am fortunate to have a job that allows my inner child to come out and play!  This summer, I've hung on jungle gyms, jumped through fountains, had ice cream at Lula's, and rolled in the grass in Central Park. I have a list of more leisurely activities I hope to allow time for before summer ends: 

-go to the beach at the Rockaways
-see the film "Boyhood"
-see the Edward Hopper exhibit at the Whitney

For now I'm savoring every last minute of slow, lazy August. Here is my favorite mini-playlist right now--for practicing yoga and evening strolls through the city. 

A Walk (Tycho)

Flux (Garth Stevenson)

10 Laws (East Forest)

Sleeping Children Are Still Flying (Blue Sky Black Death)

Where Is My Mind (Maxence Cyrin)

Melody Day (Caribou)

Be the Song (Foy Vance)

Shanti/Peace Out (MC Yogi)
