August 17, 2019August 18, 2019 The PondererLeave a comment

My yoga instructor suggested we consider “the edge.” In yoga, I believe that suggests how far a pose can go before it becomes uncomfortable. This may be a degree of bending, an amount of straightening, or things like that. She wanted us to explore our edges and consider exactly where they are in our yoga… Continue reading The Edge

Or is the onus on my shirt, which tried to strangle me after some slithering on the floor? Regardless, I came to the unpleasant realization that my planned afternoon of working on… Continue reading Thwarted!
