The logo for the MYPATH events incorporates the Flower of Life, which creates everything in the universe and is the visual expression of the connections of life. The Yin/Yang symbolizes the two events we have each year. The Spring MYPATH is more yang inspired, full of growth and energy, while the Fall event is more yin inspired, more therapeutic and geared towards quiet self reflection. Also, the Yin/Yang symbolizes the purpose of yoga, which is to balance the two sides of the body, the masculine and feminine energies, and thus find samadhi, or union with the divine. The turtle is a sacred figure in Native American symbolism as it represents Mother Earth, and also signifies good health, long life, endurance, and persistence. The arrows signify the journey along our path, as we travel around the circle of life.
The logo thus symbolizes the intention for MYPATH, which is to foster good health, happiness, and connectivity as we travel our life path on Mother Earth, by balancing one’s energies through the persistent practice of yoga.
Parts of the logo also tie in Gabriella and Brenda’s other passions. The turtle shape is directly from Terrapin Hill Farm’s logo, which Brenda designed and can be seen on the barn quilt as you come in the driveway to the farm. The arrows represent those from the logo for The Inner Warrior, the store that Gabriella and her mother run in Louisville. Like the event itself, designing the MYPATH logo was a collaborative effort between Brenda and Gabriella.
