What’s with the buffalo & sparrow?
HI!
We are Cole Schlam and Rachel Stroud and together we founded an informed yoga business.
What’s in a name?....PURPOSE. A buffalo will instinctively face a storm and run toward it in order to get through it quicker and with less suffering. A cow, on the other hand, will instinctively run away from the storm and end up running in it, prolonging it’s suffering. “Be the buffalo”, as they say…..well this takes courage doesn’t it? It also takes community, guidance and protection. Here is where the sparrow representation becomes vital.
A sparrow offers protection, community, guidance, joy, hard work and triumph. The buffalo needs the sparrow in this representation of a trauma survivor in order to courageously and safely move through the storm. An unlikely pairing becomes destiny’s match and safer path to healing and transformation.
