“Yoga allows you to probe your grief—to go into the pain, not run from it, and emerge somehow more whole and free—by focusing on your immediate physical as well as emotional experience. “The way I tell [students],” Roberts says, “is that rather than trying to ‘get over it’ or ‘work through it,’ try to integrate your grief into who you are, and into your body as well. Then class becomes an exercise in self-compassion. Yoga helps you live in your body with your emotions.”

The photo above? My husband and I almost six years ago. Two days later, we flew to Mexico. Since then, we’ve never traveled anywhere for longer than three days. We’ve thrown ourselves into our work. We’ve concentrated on Big Adult Stuff like (unsuccessfully) selling our condo, buying a house,…

Good Luck!

“It’s been a struggle because we are so conditioned to multitask; to always be thinking, always doing, always checking social media, always consuming some product or service. For one to sit and be present goes completely against the modern order. It feels graceful and empowering to throw it all aside for 20 minutes a day and just be here.”

Why do yoga?

Mon, 11 Feb 2013 14:51:48 -0500

· Doing yoga might help you find some ‘inner peace’. Just becoming aware of your breath can surprisingly bring you a lot of calm during times of stress. During yoga practice, we do gentle exercises that bring strength and flexibility to the body. Yoga is a non-striving practice, and so it is a great time to cultivate self-acceptance of your body and mind just as it is. Through yoga, you gradually find the connection between your thoughts, emotions, physical body and how they all affect each-other. This increased self-awareness will help you become more in tune with your body and mind.

“Fall in love with some activity, and do it! Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn’t matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough. Work as hard and as much as you want to on the things you like to do the best. Don’t think about what you want to be, but what you want to do. Keep up some kind of a minimum with other things so that society doesn’t stop you from doing anything at all.”

- Richard P. Feynman (via mortal-husk)
