Wonderful article! I find yoga also helps me to take the time to check in with my body. Where is it hurting today? Are there pockets of grief or fear that are asking for release? To me, my weekly yoga class is like going to church, with Spirit speaking through the muscles and bones.
Thank you so much Cat 😺. I used to go to an actual church and i missed the people, the communion and stillness when I no longer believed. Yoga and meditation people are now my tribe. I went a couple of times a week to yoga classes after I had a breakdown when my marriage and career disintegrated at the same time. It saved my life. Now me and my friends do online classes together, which I get loads out of but you remind me that there is nothing like being with a teacher in a roomful of yogis 🙏🏽
So beautiful. I hope this resonates with everyone the way it does with me. As Jerry said, "what a long, strange trip it's been..." But for us, it ain't over. New and incredibly challenging experiences, and also beautiful, amazing experiences, lie ahead. As my grandmother, Pearl, used to say: Life Is Grand, if you don't weaken. Strong of heart and soul, strong of body.
Thanks for this, and I'm arf to read the embedded one, too. xo ^_^
No, it certainly isn't over, it's only just begun and it's very liberating and exciting.
I like the sound of grandma Pearl. What a lovey name. Mine were Ethel and Florence. I forgot what my grandads' name was- I had to ask mum... Ernest and the other one Charles.
Hope you enjoy the other post, it's all new to me too
Thank you for the recommendation! And I returned the favor, which I was going to do anyway, after about three of them... Lovin' it! Told my dad about that last one, and he was intrigued. :)
My dad... 150 IQ destroyed by statins. He's "out there" sometimes, but he's still brilliant. What's both devastating and sometimes fantastic is that he forgets most things that are fairly short-term.
OMG my dad too, brain the size of a planet- ended up clouded and confused because he trusted and respected medial professionals, like he would expect respect in his won profession- engineering. He died at 72 in 2007. My poor Dad.
Almost none of it works. It’s the biggest scam in our society. This is the elephant in the room that is just becoming apparent to many people. Or some, at any rate.

Oh, I'm so sorry, for your dad and for you, too.
My dad's an engineer, too!
He and his mother, who lived to be 97, they are my people.
Well and truly stated.

Yes, this debacle certainly opened my eyes a lot wider.
Talk about Timing... I'm sitting down to read this just after doing a yoga session!

Lovely, so true. 💕
Ayurveda has as a foundational principle ‘Pragya paradha’. Mistake of the mind. All disease begins with this.
