On physical injuries, surrender and the mental and emotional weight it adds to have a limitation: “I refuse to accept that now I have to nurture and deal with a lil part of me that won’t function optimally so I just neglect, avoid, escape, numb or rush the healing process and overwhelm myself” very similar w/ my feelings cuz they are just “too much to deal with” - This used to be my inner dialogue every time my neck or hip hurt I mean... Why would I? Most of my life I spend it on trying and testing everything and anything to escape pain and discomfort. Been dealing with my hip and neck for years... In 2019 I surrendered and left the Lagree Method, my body gave up on me so I had to leave that practice I loved so much Had to train myself to accept that my body is different every day, we are only getting older by the day - Tending to it slowly and gently, inhabiting the sensation, doing what I could, some breathing, some restorative yoga, some light core moves ... had to try not identify with the parts of me that are “broken” makes me think of Aristotle “The whole is greater than the sum of its parts” you are still whole, able, capable even if it doesn’t feel like it right now AND YOU ARE NOT BROKEN COME YOGA THIS WEEK - Modify, use blocks, blankets, nurture it and just keep going All classes are open level and beginner friendly - dm for a GUEST PASS Monday Flow 8pm @goodmoveny #williamsburg Wednesday 10am @goodmoveny Thursday 6:30pm @alonewyork #williamsburg Fri 2pm live @obe_fitness 7pm Rooftop Sunset Psychedelic Yoga See story for info (my friends roof on Kent ave. in WB) Saturday Flow 8:30am + 10:30am @skyting #chinatownnyc
