hug your demons

[labug]

Betsey's post made me think of yoga (and I do agree that we get the experiences we need to learn what we need to learn and if we're not listening, those experiences get louder and wilder and bigger until we can't ignore)

I was doing a new yoga sequence last night and the teacher kept saying don't strive but be grateful for that tightness or restriction, it tells you where you need to breathe into.

At first I thought Uggh! Wiseguy"" But them when I really listened and did in fact breathe into that space; things loosened and relaxed.

Yoga as a metaphor for life.
